It's now normalized on creation only, if normalization is enabled, and uses a dictionary.

Spec changes at https://github.com/webaudio/web-audio-api/commit/a04cdabe1e98f054137e9ec58141e1c479d446ae.

Maybe adjust this title.

Write a comment about choosing these "magic" value, and maybe a bit more about the test: "create a periodic wave that contains two tones, ...".

Yeah not sure about this one, I'm curious what you find in 1266737.

Also can you add a test case that tests that default value for `disableNormalization` is false (when the dictionnary is not passed in) ?

I've made sure this is documented on

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/AudioContext/createPeriodicWave

I've also included a note in the relevant developer notes:

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Firefox/Releases/49#Others

Let me know if these read ok. Thanks!

Thanks! It might be helpful to say that if normalized, the resulting wave will have a "maximum absolute peak value of 1" as the spec puts it, otherwise the results will depend upon the fourier coefficients, just so people don't have to think too hard about what normalization means in this context.
