{{APIRef("Web Audio API")}}

The {{domxref("MediaElementAudioSourceNode")}} interface's read-only mediaElement property indicates the {{domxref("HTMLMediaElement")}} that contains the audio track from which the node is receiving audio.

This stream was specified when the node was first created, either using the {{domxref("MediaElementAudioSourceNode.MediaElementAudioSourceNode", "MediaElementAudioSourceNode()")}} constructor or the {{domxref("AudioContext.createMediaElementSource()")}} method.

Value

An {{domxref("HTMLMediaElement")}} representing the element which contains the source of audio for the node.

Examples

const audioCtx = new window.AudioContext();
const audioElem = document.querySelector("audio");

let options = {
  mediaElement: audioElem,
};

let source = new MediaElementAudioSourceNode(audioCtx, options);
console.log(source.mediaElement);
