I think this is one of the most wonderful 140bytes gists I've ever seen.
@p01 amazing work!

Save 3 bytes by the way.

function(f,t,S){for(t=0;++t<3e5;)S+=String.fromCharCode(eval(f));return'RIFF_oO_WAVEfmt '+atob('EAAAAAEAAQBAHwAAQB8AAAEACAA')+'data'+S}

Thanks

One thing I considered was getting rid of the 3e5 and pass an argument T instead. Same size but more flexible, at the cost of having to pass the "duration/number of blocks" all the time.

@tsaniel: That's basically offloading the empty string to the function call. Mmmmh, not sure that gives us much for the 'slow' version of Music SoftSynth, but it does bring the 'fast' version down to 139 bytes:

function(f,S,t){return'RIFF_oO_WAVEfmt "+atob('EAAAAAEAAQBAHwAAQB8AAAEACAA')+"data'+eval("for(t=0;++t<3e5;)S+=String.fromCharCode("+f+")")}

There couldn't have been a 140byt.es without some p01 magic... This is sick. Just sick....

:D/ I managed to gain one byte while still only passing the formula
