edit: Sorry it seems like I misunderstood the functionality and thought there should be sound. Discard the original comment below.

Original comment: No audio for me on latest chrome. No errors in console.

> live coding video synth

It's not a "synthesizer" that makes sound but one for visuals. You'll make your own sounds somewhere else/somehow, pipe them into Hydra and have it react to your own music/sounds.

Back in my day we called them visualizers

thank you for explaining I am familiar with audio synths never used a video synth, that's awesome.

its a video-synth so it doesn't make sound, it makes video

If its your first encounter with one I get why it'd be confusing though. We don't call regular synths audio-synths

My first encounter tbh but this is awesome thanks for explaining.

why is the page requesting microphone?

ramigb|3 years ago

That is why I thought there should be sound but I missed the point it seems as others have commented something to do with modifying the visuals based on a function.

I suppose there could be a function that takes mic input. Then you could turn it into disco lighting.
