myArrayBuffer.copyFromChannel(destination,channelNumber,startInChannel);

Parameters

destination
A Float32Array to copy the channel data to.
channelNumber
The channel number of the current AudioBuffer to copy the channel data from. If channelNumber is greater than or equal to AudioBuffer.numberOfChannels, an INDEX_SIZE_ERR will be thrown.
startInChannel Optional
An optional offset to copy the data from. If startInChannel is greater than AudioBuffer.length, an INDEX_SIZE_ERR will be thrown.
