BasicSoundJs

A basic web javascript Sound library based off of the Web Audio API that allows for overlapping sounds

Here's how you use it:

const sound = new BasicSound(<directory to sound>);
// Just like the Web Audio API except it allows for sounds to overlap and returns the `Audio` object spawned for playing the Audio
sound.play();

Advantages

Not only does this library allow for overlapping sounds, but have the same new <class>(<directory to sound>) and <audio class>.play() API portions (except for minor differences) as the Web Audio API, but if you're using something like p5.js-sound it also presents the advantage of working from http://, https://, and file:///. For instance, if you want your web app to be able to be ported to android as static files that can just be referenced via a file:/// URL via WebView.loadURL(), p5.js-sound won't work since it attempts to reference a blob URL, while this would.
