Default
- The default 523 for the frequency is around C5 note -- 523.25 Hz.
Minimum of 20 Hz and max of 20,000 Hz (20 kHz). - The default volume is 0.5 (50%).
- The oscillation type options:
- SINE

- SAWTOOTH

About
This tool is the basic idea, especially the audio synthesizing part. No other filter attached besides initialization, on, and off.
For the audio generation, the key is to connect
and disconnect
the AudioNode
with dynamic interval
(certain duration). It's also bound with the blinking light.
This tool was mainly produced out of curiosity and appreciation.
If you're interested to develop more complex system, there are lots of references on MDN (Mozilla Developer Network) to read. This superb browser API (Application Programming Interface -- in JavaScript
-- language for internet browser) has a lot of new keywords, features, and something something to remember and to tinker around. There are examples too. Neat documentation.
