nope, sorry but safari does not yet support the web audio api features necessary for this. I think they might be on the way.

Why not explain that on the page instead of throwing an alert?

When I see alerts like that, my reaction is "this guy just doesn't know what he's doing…it's probably just shitty browser sniffing".

Plus, you can probably use Modernizr to detect this feature, and show the message based on that.

Yeah thats a good point. I don't like the alert either but I'm not the best designer/front end dev so i didn't bother with any custom ui for now.
