Bug 83610 – AudioParam must support fan-in (multiple audio connections)

• Component: Web Audio
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Chris Rogers]

AudioNodes already support multiple connections from diverse sources (with implicit unity-gain summing).
When it becomes possible to connect an AudioNode to an AudioParam, then we should similarly support multiple connections with implicit summing.

This depends on:

Looks good to me overall. Couple of minor comments.

Is this change really related to this patch? If not, I suggest splitting it out. If so, will existing Web Audio apps need to be updated?

2st -> 2nd

Yes, the behavior needs to be changed to this -- it's the "correct" thing to do.

The audio-rate control of AudioParams is very new (within the last couple of weeks) and is a bit more specialized, so I'm not concerned about breaking existing content here.

Looks fine as far as I can tell from code inspection.
