[Question] How to get the mic mediaStream?

Sorry, for the noob question. I came across this lib while trying to find an alternative for navigator.mediaDevices.getUserMedia({ audio: true }) which does not work with cordova-android 6.4.0 for me because of “NotReadableError - Could not start source” even with the mic permission enabled. I’ve been trying to figure out how get the recording mic’s mediaSteam from audioinput. Any suggestions?

There is actually a way: If you need a MediaStream, you should be able to connect the audioinput to a MediaStreamAudioDestinationNode as you see in the example there, an oscillator node is connected to such a node, but in this case you would do something like this instead:

audioinput.start({streamToWebAudio: true}); // Start the capture
var dest = audioinput.getAudioContext().createMediaStreamDestination(); // Create the node
audioinput.connect(dest); // Connect the plugin to the node

And now you should be able to reference the MediaStream by using dest.stream

So the MediaStreamAudioDestinationNode basically converts the data coming from Web Audio (which this plugin is using) into a MediaStream with a single AudioMediaStreamTrack.
