Audio File Library Version 0.2.3 Thursday, 25 October 2001 Copyright (C) 1998-2000, Michael Pruett Copyright (C) 2000-2001, Silicon Graphics, Inc. michael@68k.org / mpruett@sgi.com http://www.68k.org/~michael/audiofile/ http://oss.sgi.com/projects/audiofile/ ---- The Silicon Graphics Audio File Library provides a uniform programming interface to standard digital audio file formats. This library allows the processing of audio data to and from audio files of many common formats (currently AIFF, AIFF-C, WAVE, NeXT/Sun .snd/.au, and IRCAM). The library also supports compression (currently G.711 mu-law and A-law and IMA and MS ADPCM) as well as PCM formats of all flavors (signed and unsigned integer, floating point and double-precision floating point). One premise of the Audio File Library is that the data presented to an application need not be in the same format as the data contained in the file. Another, however, is that the capabilities of the file format are exposed to the application programmer should the programmer wish to take advantage of them.
