Keyboard
On-screen piano keyboard — a NOTE controller (no sound of its own). Click the keys to send Pitch + Gate to a synth voice: wire Pitch into a Wavetable's Freq and Gate into an ADSR's Gate, or drop the Synth Voice preset (pre-wired). audio.js turns a key press into the voice's frequency + an open gate — like the Clock drives the transport — so nothing per-note touches the kernel. Maximise the node for a wider playing range.
