| 14 | The Silicon Graphics Audio File Library provides a uniform programming |
|---|
| 15 | interface to standard digital audio file formats. |
|---|
| 16 | |
|---|
| 17 | This library allows the processing of audio data to and from audio |
|---|
| 18 | files of many common formats (currently AIFF, AIFF-C, WAVE, NeXT/Sun |
|---|
| 19 | .snd/.au, and IRCAM). The library also supports compression (currently |
|---|
| 20 | G.711 mu-law and A-law and IMA and MS ADPCM) as well as PCM formats of |
|---|
| 21 | all flavors (signed and unsigned integer, floating point and |
|---|
| 22 | double-precision floating point). |
|---|
| 23 | |
|---|
| 24 | One premise of the Audio File Library is that the data presented to |
|---|
| 25 | an application need not be in the same format as the data contained in |
|---|
| 26 | the file. Another, however, is that the capabilities of the file format |
|---|
| 27 | are exposed to the application programmer should the programmer wish to |
|---|
| 28 | take advantage of them. |
