Properties

blockTime #

readonly Seconds

The number of seconds of 1 processing block (128 samples)


console.log(Tone.Destination.blockTime);

channelCount #

number

channelCount is the number of channels used when up-mixing and down-mixing connections to any inputs to the node. The default value is 2 except for specific nodes where its value is specially determined.

channelCountMode #

ChannelCountMode

channelCountMode determines how channels will be counted when up-mixing and down-mixing connections to any inputs to the node. The default value is "max". This attribute has no effect for nodes with no inputs.

  • "max" - computedNumberOfChannels is the maximum of the number of channels of all connections to an input. In this mode channelCount is ignored.
  • "clamped-max" - computedNumberOfChannels is determined as for "max" and then clamped to a maximum value of the given channelCount.
  • "explicit" - computedNumberOfChannels is the exact value as specified by the channelCount.

channelInterpretation #

ChannelInterpretation

channelInterpretation determines how individual channels will be treated when up-mixing and down-mixing connections to any inputs to the node. The default value is "speakers".

context #

BaseContext

The context belonging to the node.

debug #

boolean

Set this debug flag to log all events that happen in this class.

disposed #

readonly boolean

Indicates if the instance was disposed. 'Disposing' an instance means that all of the Web Audio nodes that were created for the instance are disconnected and freed for garbage collection.

fadeIn #

Time

The fadeIn time of the envelope applied to the source.

fadeOut #

Time

The fadeOut time of the each of the sources.

input #

undefined

Players has no input.

loaded #

readonly boolean

If all the buffers are loaded or not

mute #

boolean

Mute the output.

numberOfInputs #

readonly number

The number of inputs feeding into the AudioNode. For source nodes, this will be 0.


const node = new Tone.Gain();
console.log(node.numberOfInputs);

numberOfOutputs #

readonly number

The number of outputs of the AudioNode.


const node = new Tone.Gain();
console.log(node.numberOfOutputs);

output #

OutputNode

The combined output of all of the players

sampleTime #

readonly Seconds

The duration in seconds of one sample.


console.log(Tone.Transport.sampleTime);

state #

readonly BasicPlaybackState

The state of the players object. Returns "started" if any of the players are playing.

static version #

string

The version number semver

volume #

Param<"decibels" >

The volume of the output in decibels.
