# Audio Interruption Mode Development
## When to Use
The audio interruption mode is used to control the playback of multiple audio streams.
Audio applications can set the audio interruption mode to independent or shared under **AudioRenderer**.
In shared mode, multiple audio streams share one session ID. In independent mode, each audio stream has an independent session ID.
### Asynchronous Operations
To prevent the UI thread from being blocked, most **AudioRenderer** calls are asynchronous. Each API provides the callback and promise functions. The following examples use the promise functions.
## How to Develop
For details about the APIs, see [AudioRenderer in Audio Management](../reference/apis/js-apis-audio.md#audiorenderer8).
1. Use **createAudioRenderer()** to create an **AudioRenderer** instance.
Set parameters of the **AudioRenderer** instance in **audioRendererOptions**.
This instance is used to render audio, control and obtain the rendering status, and register a callback for notification.
```js
import audio from '@ohos.multimedia.audio';
var audioStreamInfo = {
samplingRate: audio.AudioSamplingRate.SAMPLE_RATE_44100,
channels: audio.AudioChannel.CHANNEL_1,
sampleFormat: audio.AudioSampleFormat.SAMPLE_FORMAT_S16LE,
encodingType: audio.AudioEncodingType.ENCODING_TYPE_RAW
}
var audioRendererInfo = {
content: audio.ContentType.CONTENT_TYPE_SPEECH,
usage: audio.StreamUsage.STREAM_USAGE_VOICE_COMMUNICATION,
rendererFlags: 1
}
var audioRendererOptions = {
streamInfo: audioStreamInfo,
rendererInfo: audioRendererInfo
}
let audioRenderer = await audio.createAudioRenderer(audioRendererOptions);
```
2. Set the audio interruption mode.
After the **AudioRenderer** instance is initialized, you can set the audio interruption mode.
```js
var mode_ = audio.InterruptMode.SHARE_MODE;
await this.audioRenderer.setInterruptMode(mode_).then(()=>{
console.log('[JSAR] [SetInterruptMode] Setting: '+ (mode_ == 0? " share mode":"independent mode") + "success");
});
```
