PannerNode: setOrientation() method
Deprecated
Avoid using this feature in new projects. This feature may be a candidate for removal from web standards or browsers.
Note:
The suggested replacement for this deprecated method is to instead set the orientationX, orientationY, and orientationZ attributes directly.
The setOrientation() method of the PannerNode Interface defines the direction the audio source is playing in.
This can have a big effect if the sound is very directional — controlled by the three cone-related attributes PannerNode.coneInnerAngle, PannerNode.coneOuterAngle, and PannerNode.coneOuterGain. In such a case, a sound pointing away from the listener can be very quiet or even silent.
The three parameters x, y and z are unitless and describe a direction vector in 3D space using the right-hand Cartesian coordinate system. The default value of the direction vector is (1, 0, 0).
Syntax
setOrientation(x, y, z)
Parameters
Return value
None (undefined).
Examples
See BaseAudioContext.createPanner() for example code.
