setOrientation

Summary

Describes which direction the audio source is pointing in the 3D cartesian coordinate space. Depending on how directional the sound is (controlled by the cone attributes), a sound pointing away from the listener can be very quiet or completely silent. The x, y, and z parameters represent a direction vector in 3D space. The default value is (1,0,0).
