Reference createAudio()

createAudio()

Creates a hidden <audio></audio> element for simple audio playback.

createAudio() returns a new p5.MediaElement object.

The first parameter, src, is the path the video. If a single string is passed, as in '/assets/video.mp4', a single video is loaded. An array of strings can be used to load the same video in different formats. For example, ['/assets/video.mp4', '/assets/video.ogv', '/assets/video.webm']. This is useful for ensuring that the video can play across different browsers with different capabilities. See MDN for more information about supported formats.

The second parameter, callback, is optional. It's a function to call once the audio is ready to play.
