    Parameters

    • loop: boolean

      Whether the audio should loop.

    Returns void

    Throws

    Throws an error if the sound has been cleaned up.

stereoPan

  • get stereoPan(): null | number

  • Gets the stereo panning value.

    Returns null | number

    The current stereo pan value, or null if stereo panning is not applicable.

    Throws

  • set stereoPan(value): void

  • Sets the stereo panning value.

    Parameters

    • value: number

      The stereo pan value to set, between -1 (left) and 1 (right).

    Returns void

    Throws

    Throws an error if stereo panning is not available, if the sound has been cleaned up, or if the value is out of bounds.

threeDOptions

  • get threeDOptions(): PannerOptions

  • Gets the 3D audio options if HRTF panning is used.

    Returns PannerOptions

    The current 3D audio options.

    Throws

    Throws an error if the sound has been cleaned up or if HRTF panning is not used.

  • set threeDOptions(options): void

  • Sets the 3D audio options for HRTF panning.

    Parameters

    • options: Partial<PannerOptions>

      The 3D audio options to set.

    Returns void

    Throws

    Throws an error if the sound has been cleaned up or if HRTF panning is not used.

volume

  • get volume(): number

  • Gets the current volume of the audio.

    Returns number

    The current volume.

    Throws

Methods

addFilter

  • addFilter(filter): void

  • Adds a filter to the audio signal chain.

    Parameters

    • filter: BiquadFilterNode

applyFilters

  • applyFilters(connection): any

  • Parameters

    • connection: any

cleanup

  • cleanup(): void

  • Cleans up resources used by the Playback instance. This method should be called when the audio is no longer needed to free up resources.

    Returns void

clone

  • clone(overrides?): Playback

  • Creates a clone of the current Playback instance with optional overrides for certain properties. This method allows for the creation of a new Playback instance that shares the same audio context and source node but can have different settings such as loop count or pan type.

    Parameters

    • overrides: Partial<PlaybackCloneOverrides> = {}

      An object containing properties to override in the cloned instance.

    Returns Playback

    A new Playback instance cloned from the current one with the specified overrides applied.

    Throws

    Throws an error if the sound has been cleaned up.

loop

  • loop(loopCount?): LoopCount

  • Sets or gets the loop count for the audio.

    Parameters

    • Optional loopCount: LoopCount

      The number of times the audio should loop. 'infinite' for endless looping.

    Returns LoopCount

    The loop count if no parameter is provided.

    Throws

    Throws an error if the sound has been cleaned up or if the source type is unsupported.

loopEnded

  • loopEnded(): void

  • Handles the loop event when the audio ends. This method is bound to the 'onended' event of the audio source. It manages looping logic and restarts playback if necessary.

    Returns void

pause

play

  • play(): [Playback]

  • Starts playing the audio.

    Returns [Playback]

    Returns the instance of the Playback class for chaining.

    Throws

    Throws an error if the sound has been cleaned up.

Private recreateSource

Private refreshFilters

  • refreshFilters(): void

  • Refreshes the audio filters by re-applying them to the audio signal chain. This method is called internally whenever filters are added or removed.

    Returns void

    Throws

    Throws an error if the sound has been cleaned up.

removeFilter

  • removeFilter(filter): void

  • Removes a filter from the audio signal chain.

      The filter to remove.

    Returns void
