In depth

A closer look at Beatnik

The Beatnik plug-in plays high fidelity music with sound quality comparable to high-end PC wavetable sound cards even though the processing is entirely software-based. Beatnik's supports a comprehensive set of JavaScript functions, which allows Web site designers to create interactive, multimedia experiences. The plug-in allows a Web page to play music not only on opening, but also on an event such as a "mouse click" or "mouse over." These events can also trigger individual notes, sampled voices, or sound effects; start or stop music; and change tempo, volume, pitch, or mix.

Beatnik supports RMF (Rich Music Format), MIDI, MOD, MP3, WAV, AIF and AU audio file formats.
