# listenerAngularOrientation

The listener’s angular orientation in the environment.

```
var listenerAngularOrientation: AVAudio3DAngularOrientation { get set }
```

## Discussion

The system specifies all angles in degrees.

The default orientation is with the listener looking directly along the negative z-axis (forward). This orientation has a yaw of `0.0` degrees, a pitch of `0.0` degrees, and a roll of `0.0` degrees.

Changing this property results in a corresponding change in the [`listenerVectorOrientation`](/documentation/AVFAudio/AVAudioEnvironmentNode/listenerVectorOrientation) property.
