sending audio data to javascript

Question

hi,

i was wondering if there is any way to get audio signals from a microphone into javascript (interfacing with flash, processing.js, etc.). i've seen examples of javascript receiving data (a string) from flash (http://www.permadi.com/tutorial/flashjscommand/) but am curious if it's possible to record from a microphone using something like flash, and get the fft information into javascript.

thanks.

I believe not even the HTML 5 draft supports audio input yet: Flash, unless there's something I haven't heard about, seems to be the only option. Of course, in Flash you run "actionscript", which is basically javascript, so there you are, I guess. I sure hope HTML 5 is going to add it eventually!
