StereoPannerNode

Baseline Widely available

This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since April 2021.

The StereoPannerNode interface of the Web Audio API represents a simple stereo panner node that can be used to pan an audio stream left or right. It is an AudioNode audio-processing module that positions an incoming audio stream in a stereo image using a low-cost equal-power panning algorithm.

The pan property takes a unitless value between -1 (full left pan) and 1 (full right pan). This interface was introduced as a much simpler way to apply a simple panning effect than having to use a full PannerNode.

The Stereo Panner Node moved the sound's position from the center of two speakers to the left.
