This function gets the wave form data for an audio stream which is a table of floats representing the current audio frame as a wave. This allows things like visualisations.

If the element is a player, this function will use the players voice.

Syntax

table getSoundWaveData ( element sound, int iSamples )

OOP Syntax Help! I don't understand this!

Method: sound:getWaveData(...)


Required Arguments

  • sound: a sound element that is created using playSound or playSound3D. Streams are also supported
  • iSamples: allowed samples are 256, 512, 1024, 2048, 4096, 8192 and 16384.

Returns

Returns a table of iSamples floats representing the current audio frame waveform. Returns false if the sound is not playing yet or hasn't buffered in the case of streams.

Example

This example creates a sound visualizer on the top left corner of the screen.

soundHandler = playSound ( "sound.wav" )

    if ( soundHandler ) then
        local waveData = getSoundWaveData ( soundHandler, 256 )
	if ( waveData ) then
            for i=0,255 do
                dxDrawRectangle ( i, 128, 1, waveData[i] * 128)
            end
        end
    end
end
addEventHandler ( "onClientRender", getRootElement(), onSoundPlayRender )

This example creates a sound viewer, but only with bars down.
