Manipulating audio (in PHP ? Another language ?)

Question

I would like to start a voice synthesizer project, first just by cutting and pasting or joining pieces of sounds recorded previously as .mp3 or similar with a microphone, that once treated would then be saved as .mp3 or similar, to probably then be displayed in a browser.

But the problem is I don't see any information about PHP which could do it. Do you have any ressource with this programming language for audio-related projects ?

Is it easier to manipulate audio with another programming language ?

Thank you.

You should consider using something like Node js for this. It has plenty of packages and sure something for audio. I just googled and found this: https://www.npmjs.com/package/web-audio-api
