BaseAudioContext: listener property

Baseline Widely available

This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since April 2021.

The listener property of the BaseAudioContext interface returns an AudioListener object that can then be used for implementing 3D audio spatialization.

Value

An AudioListener object.

Examples

Note: for a full Web Audio spatialization example, see our panner-node demo.

// Older webkit/blink browsers require a prefix

// …
