at first it seems like a brilliant idea and its fun to play around with.
but then you tell your mates in the office and soon after you wish google would never have done it.
arg, my ears.

cool but less cool than my friend going to lend me her roland sh-101 in few minutes.
how hard would it be to add tooltips to the knobs? :/

It was a nice surprise.

The best thing is that you can use the keyboard of your computer to play, like in a tracker.

But the bad thing is that the delay is horrendous.

No latency here

awesome thingie :)
looks like the delay is much worse in non-chromuim browsers. They said on the blog it's using flash for sound output there. While on chromium it's using some other api.
However, on chrome the sound gets garbaged kinda quickly and isn't stable. (filters shifting without warning).
also interesting, the recording is of the note data, not the wave itself: it sounds different in different browsers
my quick crappy test

The story starts with "Bob Moog was a geek. And proud of it." --- this is just strange
