AAG combines a playable instrument, effects, sampler and multitrack recorder in a single free browser-based environment. What makes it different is the way these tools are designed for experimentation rather than trying to replicate a traditional DAW. Creating and shaping sounds, sampling audio, building layered pieces and exporting the results can all be done from a single browser page. AAG includes an interactive first-use tour and optional tooltips to assist user onboarding.

In addition to designing and creating videos, I'm also a musician. I wanted to create an instrument, sampler and basic multitracker to create a single page playground for creating ambient audio, moody soundtracks and general audio experimentation. It was also important to keep focused upon creative exploration for a wide audience (ie no traditional musical training required to get started). I used Codex to assist me in the programming of the web app but devoted most of my time to getting the look and feel of the AAG right so it looks like a professional app and is also something useful as a serious sketchpad for some and a curious, experimentation tool for others...hopefully that has been achieved.
