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

The AudioWorklet interface of the Web Audio API is used to supply custom audio processing scripts that execute in a separate thread to provide very low latency audio processing.

The worklet's code is run in the {{domxref("AudioWorkletGlobalScope")}} global execution context, using a separate Web Audio thread which is shared by the worklet and other audio nodes.

Access the audio context's instance of AudioWorklet through the {{domxref("BaseAudioContext.audioWorklet")}} property.
