I like the idea and in fact I have a side project that's somewhat similar. I've been in the same boat where I thought music remixing and producing should be more collaborative and a sharing process and chromes web audio api seems to be a great tool for that.

Will your site eventually allow you to download a final mastered .mp3 or .ogg file? Do you have plans to do more audio editing in the browser as opposed to just layering one track on top of another?

Thanks manchiko, we'll be adding the ability to download the mastered track soon. We will likely be adding in extra editing features or even midi editing but we'd like to see what kind of requests we get first.

I know it's non-trivial, but I think one-click effects would be amazing as well (reverb, chorus, distortion, etc). Think audio Instagram.

Interesting. Reverb actually would be trivial since it comes built into the WebAudio API. The others maybe not so much. What use cases do you envision there?

I'm thinking of easy ways for kids and newbies to join in the remixing process with little prior musical training.
