The MediaStreamTrackAudioSourceNode interface is a type of AudioNode which represents a source of audio data taken from a specific MediaStreamTrack obtained through the WebRTC or Media Capture and Streams APIs. The audio itself might be input from a microphone or other audio sampling device, or might be received through a RTCPeerConnection, among other posible options.
A MediaStreamTrackAudioSourceNode has no inputs and exactly one output, and is created using the AudioContext.createMediaStreamTrackSource() method. This interface is similar to MediaStreamAudioSourceNode, except it lets you specifically state the track to use, rather than assuming the first audio track on a stream.
| Number of inputs | 0 |
|---|---|
| Number of outputs | 1 |
| Channel count | defined by the first audio MediaStreamTrack passed to the AudioContext.createMediaStreamTrackSource() method that created it. |
Constructor
new MediaStreamTrackAudioSourceNode()- Creates a new
MediaStreamTrackAudioSourceNodeobject instance with the specified options.
Properties
The MediaStreamTrackAudioSourceNode interface has no properties of its own; however, it inherits the properties of its parent, AudioNode.
Methods
Inherits methods from its parent, AudioNode.
Example
In this example, we grab a media (audio + video) stream from navigator.getUserMedia, feed the media into a <video> element to play then mute the audio, but then also feed the audio into a MediaStreamAudioSourceNode. Next, we feed this source audio into a low pass BiquadFilterNode (which effectively serves as a bass booster), then a AudioDestinationNode.
The range slider below the <video> element controls the amount of gain given to the lowpass filter — increase the value of the slider to make the audio sound more bass heavy!
Note: You can see this example running live, or view the source.
var pre = document.querySelector('pre');
var video = document.querySelector('video');
var myScript = document.querySelector('script');
var range = document.querySelector('input');
// getUserMedia block - grab stream
// put it into a MediaStreamAudioSourceNode
// also output the visuals into a video element
if (navigator.mediaDevices) {
console.log('getUserMedia supported.');
navigator.mediaDevices.getUserMedia ({audio: true, video: true})
.then(function(stream) {
video.srcObject = stream;
video.onloadedmetadata = function(e) {
video.play();
video.muted = true;
};
// Create a MediaStreamAudioSourceNode
// Feed the HTMLMediaElement into it
var audioCtx = new AudioContext();
var source = audioCtx.createMediaStreamSource(stream);
// Create a biquadfilter
var biquadFilter = audioCtx.createBiquadFilter();
biquadFilter.type = "lowshelf";
biquadFilter.frequency.value = 1000;
biquadFilter.gain.value = range.value;
// connect the AudioBufferSourceNode to the gainNode
// and the gainNode to the destination, so we can play the
// music and adjust the volume using the mouse cursor
source.connect(biquadFilter);
biquadFilter.connect(audioCtx.destination);
// Get new mouse pointer coordinates when mouse is moved
// then set new gain value
range.oninput = function() {
biquadFilter.gain.value = range.value;
}
})
.catch(function(err) {
console.log('The following gUM error occured: ' + err);
});
} else {
console.log('getUserMedia not supported on your browser!');
}
// dump script to pre element
pre.innerHTML = myScript.innerHTML;
Note: As a consequence of calling createMediaStreamSource(), audio playback from the media stream will be re-routed into the processing graph of the AudioContext. So playing/pausing the stream can still be done through the media element API and the player controls.
