Writes samples to an audio file stream.
A subclass that writes a specific type of audio format will be created by an AudioFormat object.
After creating one of these with the AudioFormat::createWriterFor() method you can call its write() method to store the samples, and then delete it.

virtual |
Destructor.

noexcept |
Returns a description of what type of format this is.
E.g. "AIFF file"
|
pure virtual |
Writes a set of samples to the audio stream.
Note that if you're trying to write the contents of an AudioBuffer, you can use writeFromAudioSampleBuffer().
samplesToWrite | an array of arrays containing the sample data for each channel to write. This is a zero-terminated array of arrays, and can contain a different number of channels than the actual stream uses, and the writer should do its best to cope with this. If the format is fixed-point, each channel will be formatted as an array of signed integers using the full 32-bit range -0x80000000 to 0x7fffffff, regardless of the source's bit-depth. If it is a floating-point format, you should treat the arrays as arrays of floats, and just cast it to an (int**) to pass it into the method. |
numSamples | the number of samples to write |
|
virtual |
Some formats may support a flush operation that makes sure the file is in a valid state before carrying on.
If supported, this means that by calling flush periodically when writing data to a large file, then it should still be left in a readable state if your program crashes. It goes without saying that this method must be called from the same thread that's calling write()! If the format supports flushing and the operation succeeds, this returns true.
bool juce::AudioFormatWriter::writeFromAudioReader | ( | AudioFormatReader & | reader, |
int64 | startSample, | ||
int64 | numSamplesToRead ) |
Reads a section of samples from an AudioFormatReader, and writes these to the output.
This will take care of any floating-point conversion that's required to convert between the two formats. It won't deal with sample-rate conversion, though.
If numSamplesToRead < 0, it will write the entire length of the reader.
bool juce::AudioFormatWriter::writeFromAudioSource | ( | AudioSource & | source, |
int | numSamplesToRead, | ||
int | samplesPerBlock = 2048 ) |
Reads some samples from an AudioSource, and writes these to the output.
The source must already have been initialised with the AudioSource::prepareToPlay() method
source | the source to read from |
numSamplesToRead | total number of samples to read and write |
samplesPerBlock | the maximum number of samples to fetch from the source |
bool juce::AudioFormatWriter::writeFromAudioSampleBuffer | ( | const AudioBuffer< float > & | source, |
int | startSample, | ||
int | numSamples ) |
Writes some samples from an AudioBuffer.
bool juce::AudioFormatWriter::writeFromFloatArrays | ( | const float *const * | channels, |
int | numChannels, | ||
int | numSamples ) |
Writes some samples from a set of float data channels.
