Hi Martin.

Now I understand.

What I did is a player, but what you need is a converter. The
principles are the same, except the first is realtime (for listening
and interacting) while the second could be much faster but would have
to be streamed to a file.

The Web Audio API does support offline audio rendering that could
potentially be faster than realtime :
http://webaudio.github.io/web-audio-api/#the-offlineaudiocontext-interface

But I don't know if the result could be streamed to a file.
To be verified. Thanks for the idea.
