PannerNode: panningModel property

Baseline Widely available

This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since ⁨July 2015⁩.

The panningModel property of the PannerNode interface is an enumerated value determining which spatialization algorithm to use to position the audio in 3D space.

The possible values are:

equalpower: Represents the equal-power panning algorithm, generally regarded as simple and efficient. equalpower is the default value.
HRTF: Renders a stereo output of higher quality than equalpower — it uses a convolution with measured impulse responses from human subjects.
