On September 26, 2011 Viznut released the Experimental music from very short C programs video on Youtube. Soon people started playing with various formulas and building tools to test them. The time has come for this project and 140byt.es to have a tiny baby.
Behold the 140bytes Music SoftSynth in JavaScript!
See more information and a live demo of the 140bytes Music SoftSynth

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
Another nice usage of |=, gook job @p01!
Somehow a typo made its way into test.html, fix here: https://gist.github.com/2875542
Thanks!
1337!
