Sonic Boom! Audio Programming on Android and Chrome
summary
Android and Chrome deliver real low‑latency audio (Pixel devices and a Chrome Pixelbook report ~20 ms round‑trip) and a massive combined reach (over 3 billion users; Android >2 billion). The demo builds a C++ synthesizer, shares it across platforms using Oboe on Android and compiling to WebAssembly and AudioWorklet for Chrome, wires up MIDI via Web MIDI and Android Q’s AMidi / Native MIDI API, and runs live — synth sound, MIDI input, and a short jam all work end‑to‑end.
