Playing
Play a Toy with the mouse, touch, computer keyboard or MIDI, and set your audio device.
Starting audio#
Choose Play (or interact with a Frame). The first gesture unlocks audio; later Toys start immediately. Stop releases any held notes.
Controls#
- Drag knobs and sliders, or focus them and use the arrow keys.
- Hold a momentary button to play; tap a trigger pad for one event.
- The piano responds to pointer, touch and keyboard.
- With a MIDI keyboard connected, the MIDI monitor (Sound controls) shows what arrives. See MIDI for mapping.
Monitor level and device#
Open Settings → Audio to choose an output device, check the sample rate and set the monitor level. Previews always use a reduced level.
Performance tips#
- Close extra tabs that use audio.
- Prefer fewer simultaneous voices on slower devices.
- If you hear crackling, raise the browser's audio buffer or lower the voice count. See Troubleshooting.
