#cocos2d-html5-howler

###not compatible with cocos2d 3.x at the moment!

##Description

Extension of SimpleAudioEngine.js to use howler.js as Audio Engine.

Howler.js

howler on github

Howler uses the Web Audio API and the HTML5 Audio API as fallback. Why ist the Web Audio API better as the Audio API?

Web Audio is much more flexible and on the iPhone/iPad the Audio API is really bad.

TODO: make it compatible with cocos2d 3.x

##Use

add the 'howler.js' and 'HowlerAudioEngine.js' to your loader config

change in SimpleAudioEngine.js:

cc.AudioEngine.getInstance = function () {
if (!this._instance) {
    this._instance = new cc.AudioEngine();
    this._instance.init();
}
return this._instance;
};

to:

cc.AudioEngine.getInstance = function () {
if (sys.platform === "browser") {
    if (!this._instance) {
        this._instance = new cc.HowlerAudioEngine();
        this._instance.init();
    }
} else {
    if (!this._instance) {
        this._instance = new cc.AudioEngine();
        this._instance.init();
    }
}
return this._instance;
};

so the preloader can use howler
