for some reason if you lower the volume here, the effect that comes from two saws colliding just completely disappears—if that says something about how it works on os
im too dumb to participate in this conversation but phase cancellation seems to work completely fine (and the effect is amplified by raising the instrument volume)
Muhngkee, you're probably right about web audio api not limiting the overtones, but wouldn't you get this effect even if you did limit them? Sounds like plain old interference to me. Like how you get beat frequencies when you play 2 slightly offset sine waves, but more freaky sounding cos it's a saw.
this might be because OS doesn't have a system for filtering out frequencies higher than half its sample rate (nyquist frequency). Yeah a bit nerdy maybe.
