AudioNode.channelCountMode

The possible values of channelCountMode and their meanings are:

Value	Description	The following AudioNode children default to this value
max	The number of channels is equal to the maximum number of channels of all connections. In this case, channelCount is ignored and only up-mixing happens.	GainNode, DelayNode, ScriptProcessorNode, ChannelMergerNode, BiquadFilterNode, WaveShaperNode
clamped-max	The number of channels is equal to the maximum number of channels of all connections, clamped to the value of channelCount.	PannerNode, ConvolverNode
explicit	The number of channels is defined by the value of channelCount.	AudioDestinationNode, AnalyserNode, ChannelSplitterNode, DynamicsCompressorNode

Syntax

var oscillator = audioCtx.createOscillator();
oscillator.channelCountMode = 'explicit';

Value

A enumerated value representing a channelCountMode.

Example

var AudioContext = window.AudioContext || window.webkitAudioContext;

var audioCtx = new AudioContext();

var oscillator = audioCtx.createOscillator();
var gainNode = audioCtx.createGain();

oscillator.connect(gainNode);
gainNode.connect(audioCtx.destination);

oscillator.channelCountMode = 'explicit';
