- - org.web3d.x3d.jsail.X3DConcreteNode
  - - org.web3d.x3d.jsail.Sound.AudioClipObject

All Implemented Interfaces:

X3DChildNode, X3DNode, X3DUrlObject, AudioClip, X3DSoundSourceNode, X3DTimeDependentNode
```
public class AudioClipObject
extends X3DConcreteNode
implements AudioClip
```
X3D node tooltip: [X3DSoundSourceNode,X3DUrlObject] AudioClip provides audio data used by parent Sound nodes.
- Hint: add a parent Sound node first.
- Hint: utilize DEF/USE references for multiple copies of a single AudioClip sound file in order to avoid multiple-download delays, reduce memory requirements, and maintain synchronization.
- Hint: authors can provide multiple audio formats for the same audio track, with each source address listed separately in the url field.
- Hint: player support for .wav format is required, .midi format is recommended, other formats are optional.
- Hint: X3D Scene Authoring Hints:Audio
  http://www.web3d.org/x3d/content/examples/X3dSceneAuthoringHints.html#Audio
- Hint: apply containerField='watchList' when parent node is LoadSensor.
Package hint: This org.web3d.x3d.jsail concrete class is used for implementing a standalone X3D object as a Plain Old Java Object (POJO). If you are writing Java code for use inside an X3D Script node, compile separate code using only the org.web3d.x3d.sai package instead.

    Tooltip: DEF defines a unique ID name for this node, referenceable by other nodes. Hint: descriptive DEF names improve clarity and help document a model. Hint: well-defined names can simplify design and debugging through improved author understanding. Hint: X3D Scene Authoring Hints, Naming Conventions http://www.web3d.org/x3d/content/examples/X3dSceneAuthoringHints.html#NamingConventions
    
    Note that setting the DEF value clears the USE value.

    Specified by:
    
    setDEF in interface X3DNode
    
    Specified by:
    
    setDEF in interface AudioClip
    
    Specified by:
    
    setDEF in interface X3DSoundSourceNode
    
    Specified by:
    
    setDEF in interface X3DTimeDependentNode
    
    Specified by:
    
    setDEF in class X3DConcreteNode
    
    Parameters:
    
    newValue - is new value for the DEF field.
    
    Returns:
    
    AudioClipObject - namely this same object to allow sequential method pipelining (i.e. consecutive method invocations on the same object).
  - setDEF
```
public AudioClipObject setDEF(SFStringObject newValue)
```
    Assign typed object value to SFString DEF field, similar to setDEF(String).
    
    Parameters:
    
    newValue - is new value for the DEF field.
    
    Returns:
    
    AudioClipObject - namely this same object to allow sequential method pipelining (i.e. consecutive method invocations on the same object).
  - setUSE
```
public final AudioClipObject setUSE(java.lang.String newValue)
```
    Assign String value to inputOutput SFString field named USE.
    
    Tooltip: USE means reuse an already DEF-ed node ID, excluding all child nodes and all other attributes (except for containerField, which can have a different value). Hint:USE references to previously defined DEF geometry (instead of duplicating nodes) can improve performance. Warning: do NOT include any child nodes, a DEF attribute, or any other attribute values (except for containerField) when defining a USE attribute. Warning: each USE value must match a corresponding DEF value that is defined earlier in the scene.
    
    Note: each USE node is still an independent object, with the USE value matching the DEF value in the preceding object.
    
    Warning: invoking the setUSE() method on this node resets all other fields to their default values (except for containerField) and also releases all child nodes.
    
    Warning: no other operations can be performed to modify a USE node other than setting an alternate containerField value.

```
public final AudioClipObject setCssClass(java.lang.String newValue)
```
