AudioWorkletNode: processorerror event
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.
Secure context: This feature is available only insecure contexts (HTTPS), in some or allsupporting browsers.
Theprocessorerror event fires when the underlyingAudioWorkletProcessor behind the node throws an exception in its constructor, theprocess method, or any user-defined class method.
Once an exception is thrown, the processor (and thus the node) will output silence throughout its lifetime.
