I'm looking into making a music theory lab application, where you can see the graphical relation between music theory concepts. I would like this to be available online, so Flash and Silverlight come to mind.
But I would like to dynamically generate tones and chords etc from user input. This is something I know is a very underdeveloped area in the Flash Player. So my question is what is the current state of features for dynamic audio generation on both the Flash and Silverlight players?
So it seems that out of Silverlight and Flash, that Flash beats Silverlight on dynamic audio generation features, (which surprised me considering how basic audio support is in Flash). It seems Silverlight cannot generate dynamic audio at all, and Flash can only do so officially since version 10 of the player.
I can find very little information on the future of dynamic audio on both platforms, but Flash has the most active discussions at the moment.
