Bip Boop DTMF

This page implements a DTMF keyboard/tone generator, and a DTMF tone decoder.

DTMF (Dual Tone Multi-Frequency) signalling is the technic used to transmit numbers and some symbols over the voice frequency band on a telephone line. It's the tones heard when a number is dialled, or when pressing buttons to navigate through a call center's menus over the phone. It's also part of the 56k dial-up routine as explained here.

  • The left-hand side of the page lets you generate DTMF tones via the on-screen keypad. It shows the digits and symbols entered so far and offer an option to replay them in a row.
  • The right-hand side of the page listens to any sound produced by the left-hand side, and tries to detect DTMF tones in it. It appends any numbers detected in an output field, and shows soundwave and frequency visualisations, because why not.
