MAXIME CHEVALIER-BOISVERT
NoiseCraft is a browser-based visual programming language for sound synthesis and music. Maxime has recently restarted work on the project and has open-sourced the code. It takes inspiration from Max/MSP and PureData but has a minimalistic UI designed to be as simple as possible to facilitate learning. Find out more in Maxime's blog post, or try an example such as these relaxing ocean sounds.

Adobe have released a new "AI powered" audio editing tool for the browser called Project Shasta. There's more information in the product walkthrough on YouTube.

NOTYSING
Notysing is a music education application that allows you to learn music by singing. The team wrote to tell me that they use Web Audio heavily:
We have created a custom JSON music format that can be used for music notation as well as audio sequencing, and we have created a scheduler, a sample player with its own sample instrument format. It can be run in browser and is built with cordova for both iOS and Android.
