<ChrisL_> I reported it when Matt told me, and the systems team fixed it

<ChrisL_> This list was deactivated yesterday by mistake. It is now active again, but all

<ChrisL_> the mails sent between yesterday 20:04 UTC and now are lost.

<ChrisL_> Apologies about that.

<ChrisL_> Jean-Gui

thanks ChrisL_

I am on another call so will be just listening in for the first 20 mins

<padenot> hi

<joe> hey

<padenot> we're meeting now, right ?

<joe> yes, I'm just connecting

<padenot> ok

<padenot> I'll get to the room and join

<hongchan> hi all.

<joe> hi!

<joe> hongchan, are you guys able to join call this am?

Resolve issues from last call #1105, #1099, #1089, #1079, #95, #13, #10

<joe> https://github.com/WebAudio/web-audio-api/issues/10

joe what are the remaining decisions to be made padenot agree on features, test and write prose.

ChrisL whats the impace of implementaitons having different smoothing padenot sounds different, one property to guarantee is soft & hard knee

padenot always soft knee is fine the env is easy to spec + computation of gain.

ChrisL default values for gain and delay padenot delay is fixed ChrisL we should spec this as it will effect latency

padenot add audioparam to deactivate delay in some usecases.

padenot if there is no disagreement can continue what I am doing in #10, no disagreement.

joe who takes this forwards padenot 5 stages env, gain, pre delay. Gain computation is the main area or work.

padenot to take this forward.

<joe> https://github.com/WebAudio/web-audio-api/issues/13

joe is approach in #10 suitable for Noise/Gate/ expander - padenot is there a problem when the ratio is <1?

ChrisL 2 options - set of defaults, 2 node based on Compressor joe only thing not suppored in DC approach may be hysteresis

hongchan usecase for expander is more limited than noise gate. Hysteresis issue is more important for noisegate

ChrisL test the current proposal with Dynamics compressor, if it is not suitable then implement improved version in v.next

joe can we incoorporate negative ratio to test this.

joe add expander funtionality to compressor and push noise gate to v.next

general agreement

action to review PR off the call

<trackbot> Error finding 'to'. You can review and register nicknames at <http://www.w3.org/2011/audio/track/users>.

<joe> https://github.com/WebAudio/web-audio-api/issues/1089

<padenot> https://github.com/jernoble/Sound

padenot channel ordering is dependant on the underlying libraries used by the browser. Channel information is lost in the process. example aac ordering LCR vs SMPTE LRC

jdsmith can we normalise this just for the waapi? padenot yes we could spec to one standard

joe can we assert that when a media element is delivering a file, the channel mapping of the file will be employed

padenot spec for both media element and decodeAudioData

joe Shall we pick SMPTE? jdsmith will get feeback for next call

<joe> https://github.com/WebAudio/web-audio-api/issues/1099

<joe> https://github.com/WebAudio/web-audio-api/issues/1105

<joe> https://github.com/WebAudio/web-audio-api/issues/1079

joe can we/how do we improve on this

padenot this is informative - gc not observable. Maybe we should make it normative, there is behaviour here which would result in observable changes.

joe why can we not remove the informative label from the lifetime section.

joe same applies to baseaudio context lifetime section which is normative

next call 16th Feb

trackbot, end meeting
