It looks like, while synchronizing sounds with DOM effects is quite simple and works fine, sounds played by different threads or timers get out of sync after a while.

Next step: build a sound controller class that can play sounds at some intervals, delays, etc

I have done some fixes to the rain loop and I have added some light animations.

The library looks very nice. It is pretty small but at the same time it gives you a lot of control on sound playing. You can change the position of the sound while playing, adjust the stereo pan from left to right and much more.

Today I wanted to test this library and I decided to add some sounds to my Particle-Balls demo. Every time a ball hits a wall, a sound plays. To make it more fun, I use the X coordinate of the ball to adjust the pan, so if the ball is closest to he left border the sound will play on the left speaker and same with the right border/speaker. The pan can be adjusted gradually from -100 to 100 (left to right).
