bfxr

We have hosted the application bfxr in order to run this application in our online workstations with Wine or directly.

Quick description about bfxr:

The bfxr project by increpare is a sound-effects generator tool originally built using Flash + AIR, based on the earlier Sfxr project. Its purpose is to enable users, especially game developers and sound designers, to quickly generate retro, 8-bit/�chiptune� style sound effects (�bleeps�, �booms�, �zaps�, etc.) without deep knowledge of audio signal processing. It offers an interactive GUI through which you can tweak many parameters (oscillators, envelopes, filters, etc.) to sculpt custom sound effects; you can preview in real time, export, and iterate. The project includes libraries, HTML templates, and both ActionScript and JavaScript code. It has been well-received (over a thousand stars), but as of 2025, it has been superseded by a newer version called bfxr2, which is a JavaScript reworking of the original.

Features:

• Customizable sound synthesis � tweak waveforms, envelopes, and filters.
• Instant preview � hear changes in real time.
• Export options � save sounds as files (e.g. WAV).
• GUI-based tool � built with Flash/AIR for easy use.
• Multi-language codebase � ActionScript, JavaScript, HTML, CSS.
• Apache 2.0 licensed � open source, now succeeded by bfxr2.

Programming Language: ActionScript, JavaScript.
