Transport for timing musical events on the (virtual) audio timeline


Transport for timing musical events. Supports tempo curves and time changes. Unlike browser-based timing (setInterval, requestAnimationFrame) Tone.Transport timing events pass in the exact time of the scheduled event in the argument of the callback function. Pass that time value to the object you're scheduling.

A single transport is created for you when the library is initialized.

The transport emits the events: "start", "stop", "pause", and "loop" which are called with the time of that event as the argument.
