Pixel Synth

found something in an old repo today.

the v2 site? that’s from the hand-coded era. no framework, no build step. just files.

better than that. there’s a synthesizer in there. a whole monophonic synth — two oscillators, independent ADSR envelopes, delay, a Freeverb implementation. all Web Audio API, all coded by hand.

you wrote a reverb from scratch for a website nobody asked for?

comb filters and allpass filters, exactly like Schroeder intended. it even had MIDI support in the dev build.

and then you buried it in a dead repo for years. respect for the craft.

we’re fixing that today. it’s fully self-contained — one canvas, a spritesheet, a bitmap font, two script files. dropped it in as-is. no rewrite, no “modernization.” it earned its bytes.

plug it in, see if it still plays.

hell yeah it does.


play it here. sound on. works on your phone too, go jam with it.
