How could this web technology be helpful?
Think about every time we release a new update. Just open the web page, and everything is there.
We can make experimental changes and get instant feedback from the users.
All these will happen at an unprecedented speed.
Is this the 2nd generation Synthesizer V?
We consider Web Synthesizer V an important milestone towards the second release, which is scheduled later this year.
Some of the new features from the second release are already present (e.g. deep neural network based aspiration modeling).
Does it mean that future releases will all be web-based?
Certainly not. Desktop apps still run faster and do more.
The web version is not a replacement but a great addition to the eco system.
Will it support Firefox, Safari, ...?
Some of the technologies we are using are very, very new that only Chrome and Firefox (nightly build) so far have full support.
In the next few years, we expect them to be supported by all mainstream browsers.
Will there be save project features and etc.?
At this point Web Synthesizer V is targeting users who want a quick hands-on experience with the latest technology.
For any serious production, we recommend the desktop version.
