Patches

Audio Device Info

The Kineme Audio Device Info Patch provides information about the available hardware audio output devices.

Audio File Info

The Kineme Audio File Info Patch provides some basic information about the specified audio file (anything that QuickTime supports).

Audio File Input

The Kineme Audio File Input Patch outputs a structure that contains sample data from a specified Audio File. It also generates an image that represents the audio levels. Each horizontal line is a channel (typically 2), and each vertical line is a sample.

Audio File Player

The Kineme Audio File Player Patch asynchronously plays the specified audio file (anything that QuickTime supports) on the specified output device, on the rising edge of the Trig input.

Use the Kineme Audio Device Info to enumerate available output devices, and then feed the UID of your preferred device to the Kineme Audio File Player Patch’s Device UID input. If the Device UID is empty, the system default output device is used.

You can optionally specify the way the audio file’s channels are mapped to device output channels, by entering a comma-separated list in the Kineme Audio File Player Patch’s Channel Mapping input. For example, if you have a stereo audio file, and are playing on a device with four outputs, and want to output the stereo file to the last two channels of the device, enter “2,3” (i.e., “Map the first audio file channel to device channel 2, Map the second audio file channel to device channel 3”).
