Obtain audio buffer

Obtain audio buffer
Prev	Chapter 4. The soundcard and sequencer interface	Next

Here we get audio buffer from AgsSoundcard and write some sine synth tone at 440 Hz. First we get presets from soundcard, then we fill the AgsSynthUtil struct and finally compute the sine sound using utility function.

Example 4.2. Get AgsSoundcard buffer

#include <glib.h>
#include <glib-object.h>

#include <ags/libags.h>
#include <ags/libags-audio.h>

AgsApplicationContext *application_context;

GObject *soundcard;

AgsSynthUtil synth_util;

GList *start_list;

void *buffer;

guint audio_channels;
guint samplerate;
guint buffer_length;
guint format;

application_context = ags_application_context_get_instance();

start_list = ags_sound_provider_get_soundcard(AGS_SOUND_PROVIDER(application_context));

if(start_list != NULL){
  soundcard = G_OBJECT(start_list->data);

  if(ags_soundcard_is_playing(AGS_SOUNDCARD(soundcard))){
    buffer = ags_soundcard_get_buffer(AGS_SOUNDCARD(soundcard));

    ags_soundcard_get_presets(AGS_SOUNDCARD(soundcard),
			      &audio_channels,
			      &samplerate,
			      &buffer_length,
			      &format);
    
    synth_util.source = buffer;
    synth_util.source_stride = audio_channels;

    synth_util.buffer_length = buffer_length;
    synth_util.audio_buffer_util_format = ags_audio_buffer_util_format_from_soundcard(format);
    synth_util.samplerate = samplerate;

    synth_util.synth_oscillator_mode = AGS_SYNTH_OSCILLATOR_SIN;

    synth_util.frequency = 440.0;
    synth_util.phase = 0.0;
    synth_util.volume = 1.0;

    synth_util.frame_count = buffer_length;

    ags_synth_util_compute_sin(&synth_util);

    ags_soundcard_unlock_buffer(AGS_SOUNDCARD(soundcard),
