About Me

Hi, I'm Yuichi from Tokyo, Japan.

I originally studied music composition at Tokyo University of the Arts. During school I studied algorithmic composition and became a web engineer, and I've been working as one for the past ten years.

It's only recently that my experience as a web engineer has finally overlapped with music. With Suara, I can actually use web tech for audio plugin development without writing C++, which still scares me. This talk is the successor to the one I gave at ADC Japan this year about that project. Ironically, building Suara itself means writing a lot of C++ (but I hope this will be the last time I write it 😂)

    What if I tell you that you can write an audio plugin (VST/AU/AAX) using just JavaScript, no C++ needed, no compilation? In this talk, I'm going to present a JavaScript framework that I've been developing called "Suara" that enables anyone to write an audio plugin using a purely web tech stack such as HTML, CSS, JavaScript, WebGL/WebGPU, and the Web Audio API, which of course includes AudioWorklet. People may already be familiar with WebView, but the thing is, you can't really get the audio out of the web content with it! You can think of this framework as Electron, but […]
