library functions manual · audio file description · ok so sit down, grab a boba, we're learning Sound(3) 🧋✨

🌸 Name 🌸

Sound — it's an audio file description. That's the whole vibe. 💅

🎀 Structures 🎀

First thing first, you gotta pull in the headers, no cap:

#include <audio/audiolib.h>
#include <audio/sound.h>

typedef struct
{
    . . .
}SoundRec, *Sound;

So like, SoundRec is the struct and Sound is a pointer to it. Iconic duo honestly 🫶

✨ Members ✨

🚨 GIRLIE STOP. Do not dereference the members of the SoundRec structure directly. That's not the move. Use the access macros instead. Trust. 🙈

And btw, sound is a Sound, which is a pointer to a SoundRec structure. That's the lore. 👑

• SoundFileFormat(sound) — gives you the int value that's the format of the sound file. 🔥
• SoundFileFormatString(sound) — gives you the string description of the format of the sound file. Like the format but make it ✨words✨
• SoundDataFormat(sound) — gives you the int value that's the data format of the sound file.
• SoundDataFormatString(sound) — gives you the string description of the data format of the sound file. 🦋
• SoundNumTracks(sound) — gives you the int value that's the number of tracks in the audio data in the sound file. (how many tracks bestie?? the people wanna know)
• SoundSampleRate(sound) — gives you the int value that's the samples rate of the audio data in the sound file. 🎧
• SoundNumSamples(sound) — gives you the int value that's the total number of samples. all of them. every single one. 💀
• SoundComment(sound) — gives you the string comment. 📝
• SoundBytesPerSample(sound) — returns the bytes per sample of audio data. 🍓
• SoundNumBytes(sound) — returns the total number of bytes of audio data in the sound file. big number energy.
• SoundValidateDataFormat(sound) — returns true if the sound file format is a valid format. a vibe check, but for formats. ✅
