How to control the sound volume of (audio buffer) AudioContext()?

Question

I have following AudioContext() sound object in JavaScript.
Its volume is 100%. I want to play its volume in 10% (where volume = 0.1).
How can I reduce its volume to 10%?

const aCtx = new AudioContext();
let source = aCtx.createBufferSource();
let buf;
fetch('https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/knpo4d2yooe2u4h/tank_driven.wav') // can be XHR as well
  .then(resp => resp.arrayBuffer())
  .then(buf => aCtx.decodeAudioData(buf)) // can be callback as well
  .then(decoded => {
    source.buffer = buf = decoded;
    source.loop = true;
    source.connect(aCtx.destination);
    check.disabled = false;
  });

check.onchange = e => {
  if (check.checked) {
    source.start(0); // start our bufferSource
  } else {
    source.stop(0); // this destroys the buffer source
    source = aCtx.createBufferSource(); // so we need to create a new one
    source.buffer = buf;
    source.loop = true;
    source.connect(aCtx.destination);
  }
};

Answer 1

We use GainNodes to control the volume.

var gainNode = aCtx.createGain()
gainNode.gain.value = 0.1 // 10 %
gainNode.connect(aCtx.destination)

// now instead of connecting to aCtx.destination, connect to the gainNode
source.connect(gainNode)

solution

const aCtx = new AudioContext();

const gainNode = aCtx.createGain();
gainNode.gain.value = 0.1; // setting it to 10%
gainNode.connect(aCtx.destination);

let source = aCtx.createBufferSource();
let buf;
fetch('https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/knpo4d2yooe2u4h/tank_driven.wav') // can be XHR as well
  .then(resp => resp.arrayBuffer())
  .then(buf => aCtx.decodeAudioData(buf)) // can be callback as well
  .then(decoded => {
    source.buffer = buf = decoded;
    source.loop = true;
    source.connect(gainNode);

    check.disabled = false;
  });

check.onchange = e => {
  if (check.checked) {
    source.start(0); // start our bufferSource
  } else {
    source.stop(0); // this destroys the buffer source
    source = aCtx.createBufferSource(); // so we need to create a new one
    source.buffer = buf;
    source.loop = true;
    source.connect(gainNode);
    
  }
};
