The problem is it uses a bunch of javascript code to handle all the content
manipulation, events, sound playback triggerring, etc., so it wouldn't run
too happily in a static/offline mode, at least partly since most browsers
might block some of that functionality if you just hit enter on something
like a .htm file on your local hard drive, or if the local version of a page
tried embedding things like flash blocks, load local media files, etc.
If you ran your own instance of something like the webserver app I generally
make use of for development, XAMPP, then I could provide the actual
site/files to run in it:
http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html
Am still also trying to finish off the part/additional thing where it will
let you actually download a single sound file created by sort of mixing the
resulting track from the sound clips, and time patterns, which could then
also possibly be made to let you actually specify times/patterns more
manually as such - sort of online/webpage-based sound mixing applet, but,
trying to work around some minor issues at this stage.
Stay well

Hi Jacob,
its real nice and interesting. would it be asking too much, if I request
you to make a free offline program of it? I feel that if it works off
line the lag will disappear.
thank you

Subject: [Blind-Computing] Something to maybe test/try out for me -
Drummachine webpage - now with sequence recording/playback of sorts
The following page includes sort of ability to record your drumming
sequence, and play it back to you thereafter, including sequence of drum
sounds, and attempt at replicating your original timing:
http://www.blindza.co.za/sm2/index.php
Aside from just typing on number row 1 to 9 in edit box/text field, if
you activate the record button - also uses the access key combo of alt +
R - then will alert you on how to stop recording sequence - alt + S to
then activate the newly visible stop button - and then focus on edit
box/field, and lets you type in your drumming pattern/sequence.
When you then hit alt + S to stop recording, it will alert/notify you
about the now visible/available play button - alt + P, to then play back
sequence to you, in order, and along the time frame you initially played
the drumming sounds in first place...<smile>
Now, there is an occasional lag, and might be better to first just run
through whole sequence of drum sounds to make sure they're all properly
preloaded before really trying out any pattern recording, but
anyway...give it a go, and let me know what you think?
Also, while other keyboard combo's might have been better suited for use
with something like this, the main thing is in order to keep playback
triggering buttons separate from any other keyboard activity - sane as
the keyboard shortcuts assigned to recording, stop and play buttons - and
those buttons are being hidden/displayed at relevant times as well.
Lastly, this is still form of testing assigning real-time sound effects
to webpage actions/events, so let me know how it works/what you think,
since this last bit of timing implementation could also be relevant to a
bit more to do with real-time web page interaction cues or sound effects,
along with dynamic content manipulation, if that makes sense...<smile>
And, already tested original version of this page, aside from sequence
recording/playback on multiple platforms, including windows PC with a
couple of different browsers, other operating systems like mac and linux,
as well as a couple of smart phone platforms, and seemed to work pretty
much cross platform as well.
Stay well
