The onended
property of the OscillatorNode
interface is used to set the event handler for the ended event, which fires when the tone has stopped playing.
Syntax
var oscillator = audioCtx.createOscillator(); oscillator.onended = function() { ... };
Example
The following example shows basic usage of an AudioContext
to create an oscillator node. For an applied example, check out our Violent Theremin demo (see app.js for relevant code).
// create web audio api context var audioCtx = new (window.AudioContext || window.webkitAudioContext)(); // create Oscillator node var oscillator = audioCtx.createOscillator(); oscillator.type = 'square'; oscillator.frequency.value = 440; // value in hertz oscillator.start(); // start the tone playing oscillator.stop(5); // the tone will stop again in 5 seconds. oscillator.onended = function() { console.log('Your tone has now stopped playing!'); }
Properties
None.
