Audia: A HTML5 Library for Chrome's Web Audio API

Lost Decade Games has released a HTML5 Library called Audia (Writeup, Github Project, Demo) to simplify the usage of Chrome’s Web Audio API. The Web Audio API is a low-level API for playing audio effects in the browser without plugins. It is currently Chrome only, but is supported in the stable branch. Mozilla supports a much less powerful (albeit much simpler) Api Data API, but hopefully there will be cross-browser support of one or both in the near future.
