<h1>The <a class="el" href="classRtAudio.html" title="Realtime audio i/o C++ classes.">RtAudio</a> Home Page </h1><h3 class="version">4.0.11 </h3><p><a class="el" href="classRtAudio.html" title="Realtime audio i/o C++ classes.">RtAudio</a> is a set of C++ classes that provide a common API (Application Programming Interface) for realtime audio input/output across Linux, Macintosh OS-X and Windows operating systems. <a class="el" href="classRtAudio.html" title="Realtime audio i/o C++ classes.">RtAudio</a> significantly simplifies the process of interacting with computer audio hardware. It was designed with the following objectives:</p>
<ul>
<li>
object-oriented C++ design </li>
<li>
simple, common API across all supported platforms </li>
<li>
only one source and two header files for easy inclusion in programming projects </li>
<li>
allow simultaneous multi-api support </li>
<li>
support dynamic connection of devices </li>
<li>
provide extensive audio device parameter control </li>
<li>
allow audio device capability probing </li>
<li>
automatic internal conversion for data format, channel number compensation, (de)interleaving, and byte-swapping </li>
</ul>
<p><a class="el" href="classRtAudio.html" title="Realtime audio i/o C++ classes.">RtAudio</a> incorporates the concept of audio streams, which represent audio output (playback) and/or input (recording). Available audio devices and their capabilities can be enumerated and then specified when opening a stream. Where applicable, multiple API support can be compiled and a particular API specified when creating an <a class="el" href="classRtAudio.html" title="Realtime audio i/o C++ classes.">RtAudio</a> instance. See the <a class="el" href="apinotes.html">API Notes</a> section for information specific to each of the supported audio APIs.</p>
<h2><a class="anchor" id="whatsnew">
What's New (Version 4.0)</a></h2>
<p><a class="el" href="classRtAudio.html" title="Realtime audio i/o C++ classes.">RtAudio</a> V4 represents a significant rewrite of the code and includes a number of API and functionality changes from previous versions. A partial list of the changes includes:</p>
<ul>
<li>new support for non-interleaved user data</li>
<li>additional input/output parameter specifications, including channel offset</li>
<li>new support for dynamic connection of devices</li>
<li>new support for stream time</li>
<li>revised callback arguments, including separate input and output buffer arguments</li>
<li>revised C++ exception handling</li>
<li>updated support for OSS version 4.0</li>
<li>discontinued support of blocking functionality</li>
<li>discontinued support of SGI</li>
</ul>
<p>Devices are now re-enumerated every time the <a class="el" href="classRtAudio.html#a747ce2d73803641bbb66d6e78092aa1a" title="A public function that queries for the number of audio devices available.">RtAudio::getDeviceCount()</a>, <a class="el" href="classRtAudio.html#a02d7ff44ad1d7eae22283a052f3dfda8" title="Return an RtAudio::DeviceInfo structure for a specified device number.">RtAudio::getDeviceInfo()</a>, and <a class="el" href="classRtAudio.html#afacc99740fa4c5606fb35467cdea6da8" title="A public function for opening a stream with the specified parameters.">RtAudio::openStream()</a> functions are called. This allows for the proper identification of hot-pluggable (USB, Firewire, ...) devices that are connected after an <a class="el" href="classRtAudio.html" title="Realtime audio i/o C++ classes.">RtAudio</a> instance is created.</p>
