Good article. I was actually working on my own demo[1] for recorder.js, though it's a bit out of date now. It's a tiny but impressive little library.

Worth noting that, besides exporting to a WAV and adding the object URL to an <audio> tag, recorder.js will also (using the getBuffer method) let you use the buffers directly as an actual Web Audio API source. This lets you do further processing during playback on the recorded audio.

I'm hoping by the time that I finish my silly little app (a loop box that you can add effects to, Reggie Watts[2]-style, using recorder.js and the wonderful effects library Tuna[3]), web audio recording in Chrome will be enabled out of the box on stable.
