beep
A Go package for audio playback and processing with a simple API and a rich library of effects.
What is beep?
Beep is a lightweight Go library that enables sound capabilities in Go applications, from basic playback to advanced audio processing. It provides a clean, stream-based architecture centered around the Streamer interface, which simplifies working with audio data. The library supports decoding multiple audio formats, encoding to WAV, and includes a rich set of compositors and effects.
Go developers who need to add audio playback, processing, or generation to their applications, such as those building games, music players, audio tools, or educational software. It is suitable for both beginners due to its simple API and advanced users due to its extensible Streamer interface.
Developers choose Beep for its minimalistic and composable design, similar to io.Reader for audio, which makes it easy to create custom effects and generate sounds. Its small codebase (around 1,000 lines) and focus on stereo audio keep it efficient and maintainable compared to more complex audio libraries.
