Enumerations

enum SpeakerMode:

SpeakerMode SPEAKER_MODE_STEREO = 0

Two or fewer speakers were detected.

SpeakerMode SPEAKER_SURROUND_31 = 1

A 3.1 channel surround setup was detected.

SpeakerMode SPEAKER_SURROUND_51 = 2

A 5.1 channel surround setup was detected.

SpeakerMode SPEAKER_SURROUND_71 = 3

A 7.1 channel surround setup was detected.

Property Descriptions

int bus_count = 1

  • void set_bus_count ( int value )

  • int get_bus_count ( )

Number of available audio buses.

String input_device = "Default"

  • void set_input_device ( String value )

  • String get_input_device ( )

Name of the current device for audio input (see get_input_device_list). On systems with multiple audio inputs (such as analog, USB and HDMI audio), this can be used to select the audio input device. The value "Default" will record audio on the system-wide default audio input. If an invalid device name is set, the value will be reverted back to "Default".

Note: ProjectSettings.audio/driver/enable_input must be true for audio input to work. See also that setting's description for caveats related to permissions and operating system privacy settings.

String output_device = "Default"

  • void set_output_device ( String value )

  • String get_output_device ( )

Name of the current device for audio output (see get_output_device_list). On systems with multiple audio outputs (such as analog, USB and HDMI audio), this can be used to select the audio output device. The value "Default" will play audio on the system-wide default audio output. If an invalid device name is set, the value will be reverted back to "Default".

float playback_speed_scale = 1.0

  • void set_playback_speed_scale ( float value )

  • float get_playback_speed_scale ( )

Scales the rate at which audio is played (i.e. setting it to 0.5 will make the audio be played at half its speed).

Method Descriptions

void add_bus ( int at_position=-1 )

Adds a bus at at_position.

void add_bus_effect ( int bus_idx, AudioEffect effect, int at_position=-1 )

Adds an AudioEffect effect to the bus bus_idx at at_position.

AudioBusLayout generate_bus_layout ( ) const

Generates an AudioBusLayout using the available buses and effects.

int get_bus_channels ( int bus_idx ) const

Returns the number of channels of the bus at index bus_idx.

AudioEffect get_bus_effect ( int bus_idx, int effect_idx )

Returns the AudioEffect at position effect_idx in bus
