EZ Web Audio / GainEffect

Class: GainEffect

Defined in: effects/gain-effect.ts:21

GainEffect - A thin wrapper around GainNode that implements the Effect interface.

For a single-node effect like GainEffect:

  • input and output both point to the same GainNode
  • bypass sets gain to 1.0 (passthrough), stores/restores the previous value
  • mix controls how much of the effect is applied (0=passthrough, 1=full effect)
  • value is the gain amount applied when not bypassed

Example

typescript
const gain = createGainEffect(audioContext, 0.5)
gain.value = 0.8  // Set gain to 80%
gain.bypass = true  // Passthrough (gain becomes 1.0)
gain.bypass = false // Restore to 0.8

Constructors

Constructor

new GainEffect(audioContext, initialValue): GainEffect

Defined in: effects/gain-effect.ts:27

Parameters

audioContext

AudioContext

initialValue

number = 1.0

Returns

GainEffect

Accessors

bypass

Get Signature

get bypass(): boolean

Defined in: effects/gain-effect.ts:59

When true, gain becomes 1.0 (passthrough). When false, restores the previous gain value.

Returns

boolean

Set Signature

set bypass(v): void

Defined in: effects/gain-effect.ts:63

When true, effect is bypassed (passthrough)

Parameters
v

boolean

Returns

void

When true, effect is bypassed (passthrough)

Implementation of

Effect.bypass


input

Get Signature

get input(): AudioNode

Defined in: effects/gain-effect.ts:34

The input AudioNode (same as output for single-node effect)

Returns

AudioNode

The input AudioNode that receives signal from the chain

Implementation of

Effect.input


mix

Get Signature

get mix(): number

Defined in: effects/gain-effect.ts:79

Wet/dry mix: 0 = passthrough (gain of 1.0), 1 = full effect. Mix interpolates between 1.0 and the set value.

Returns

number

Set Signature

set mix(v): void

Defined in: effects/gain-effect.ts:83

Wet/dry mix: 0 = fully dry (no effect), 1 = fully wet (full effect)

Parameters
v

number

Returns

void

Wet/dry mix: 0 = fully dry (no effect), 1 = fully wet (full effect)

Implementation of

Effect.mix


output

Get Signature

get output(): AudioNode

Defined in: effects/gain-effect.ts:39

The output AudioNode (same as input for single-node effect)

Returns

AudioNode

The output AudioNode that sends signal to the next in chain

Implementation of

Effect.output


value

Get Signature

get value(): number

Defined in: effects/gain-effect.ts:44

The gain value (0.0 to any positive number)

Returns

number

Set Signature

set value(v): void

Defined in: effects/gain-effect.ts:48

Parameters
v

number

Returns

void
