API docs link is a 404. But I'm looking to try this. Have you worked around with any of the audio playback changes (onlick vs. ontouchend vs onmouseup) in iOS 9/10? I'm curious what "audio unlock" on iOS means.
My only complaint is it is written in Haxe instead of ES6. It would make sense to code it in Haxe if it were to be ported to PHP, C++ and the likes but it appears to be strictly for web audio

I don't want to derail this whole submission talking about haxe, but this is the first time I've really ever looked at it. It's not like haxe is some kind of crazy offshoot language, it looks pretty damn close to typescript and flow (But to me this looks closer to "regular javascript" than most typescript and flow does). With the exception of the `@:expose` and `@:keep` stuff, there isn't anything i've seen yet just…
It's not as cool (and backed by big Californian co) as JS/TS, but Haxe really grows on you when you start mastering it.

Right, and on iOS, it just leaves the browser and opens the video recording app. Unless something has changed, getUserMedia still doesn't work on Chrome/Android or iOS/Safari yet.
I believe you're correct - the state of audio recording on the web via browser is still awful. We are just finishing an investigation at work on my team, and find that we cannot avoid the use of Flash to record for IE/Edge/Safari...our only saving grace is that this app is mainly intended for desktop use. I wish mobile browser vendors didn't avoid this problem - I get that they're all prioriizing different things, bu…

I'm not sure if they solve the problem you face but I know they support Audio recording via their Javascript SDK and I thought it might be useful to you.

In many cases, compiler metadata is specific to a given target. E.g., they can be quite common on extern definitions. This allows the Haxe language to stay small, while providing flexibility for better target interoperability.
In this case, @:expose will expose certain methods to the global namespace, and @:keep will prevent the compiler from removing code with its dead code elimination functionality. Both of these are very useful for creating and maintaining js libraries, regardless of whether or not the library is also cross-platform.

Have you checked SoundCloud's implementation? https://developers.soundcloud.com/docs/api/sdks#recording https://github.com/soundcloud/soundcloud-javascript I'm not sure if they solve the problem you face but I know they support Audio recording via their Javascript SDK and I thought it might be useful to you.
Surprisingly, it DOES look like getUserMedia is supported by Android browser and Android Chrome now (with some weird namespace prefix/object).
http://caniuse.com/#feat=stream
Still doesn't work on anything iOS though (until Apple puts it in Safari).
So no dice for HTML5 on mobile still (I've been waiting since 2012 for some way to support in-browser web-based audio recording, sigh). :|
