IIRFilterNode
The IIRFilterNode interface of the Web Audio API is an AudioNode processor which implements a general infinite impulse response (IIR) filter; this type of filter can be used to implement tone control devices and graphic equalizers as well. It lets the parameters of the filter response be specified, so that it can be tuned as needed.
Properties
The channelCount property of the AudioNode interface represents an integer used to determine how many channels are used when up-mixing and down-mixing connections to any inputs to the node.
The channelCountMode property of the AudioNode interface represents an enumerated value describing the way channels must be matched between the node's inputs and outputs.
The channelInterpretation property of the AudioNode interface represents an enumerated value describing how input channels are mapped to output channels when the number of inputs/outputs is different. For example, this setting defines how a mono input will be up-mixed to a stereo or 5.1 channel output, or how a quad channel input will be down-mixed to a stereo or mono output.
The read-only context property of the AudioNode interface returns the associated BaseAudioContext, that is the object representing the processing graph the node is participating in.
The numberOfInputs property of the AudioNode interface returns the number of inputs feeding the node. Source nodes are defined as nodes having a numberOfInputs property with a value of 0.
The numberOfOutputs property of the AudioNode interface returns the number of outputs coming out of the node. Destination nodes — like AudioDestinationNode — have a value of 0 for this attribute.
Functions
The connect() method of the AudioNode interface lets you connect one of the node's outputs to a target, which may be either another AudioNode (thereby directing the sound data to the specified node) or an AudioParam, so that the node's output data is automatically used to change the value of that parameter over time.
The disconnect() method of the AudioNode interface lets you disconnect one or more nodes from the node on which the method is called.
The getFrequencyResponse() method of the IIRFilterNode interface takes the current filtering algorithm's settings and calculates the frequency response for frequencies specified in a specified array of frequencies.
