Ephemera guide
Start with the part that matches how you make music.
This is the central guide to choosing a product, getting sound from your browser, and understanding what is saved or shareable.
01
Choose where to begin
Use the DAW for timeline-based production, Instruments for focused sound worlds, or Studio to combine browser instruments in one session.
02
Check your browser
A current Chromium-based browser gives the broadest support. Web Audio is required; WebGL 2 or WebGPU powers richer visuals where available. Ephemera automatically scales visual quality for your device.
03
Turn on audio
Browsers keep audio silent until you interact. Use the page's Open, Start, or audio button, then check the tab and system output if you still hear nothing. Headphones are recommended for feedback-sensitive inputs.
04
Save, share, and export
Save controls live inside each experience. Browser storage is device-local unless a page explicitly offers a share link or project download. Export options differ by instrument and are labelled where available.
