This is a pretty cool project! Thankx much for posting this.

Yep really cool. Great stuff.

Is there a way of querying the input devices for audio levels in order to create meters? Also, how does it work for multiple input devices? Is there a way to select them? There is a DLL floating around the forums here that can query the WDM devices in Windows.

Is there a way of querying the input devices for audio levels in order to create meters?

No. Right now there is no way to do that. May be in some future versions.

Also, how does it work for multiple input devices? Is there a way to select them?

No. As i was writting this dll i thought about that but then i had to hold the project longer. So i decided to release a "basic version" and at some future version to add also that.
Right now if you want to select an input device you have to go at Control Panel->Sounds And Audio Devices->Audio and select your input device at Sound recording.

There is a DLL floating around the forums here that can query the WDM devices in Windows.

I have written few stuff that query the system for input devices. But for selecting them not. If there is something to programatically select the audio input device then by all means use it.

I'm interested to capture audio from line input card in real time mode
and at the same time trig this sound to any output like plugin. A kind of tempo light device.

Is it possible with this capture feature ?

Thanks,

I love this .apz, great job. I can't believe I didn't find it earlier!

One Q: How can I set the bits from 8 to 16, and the 1 channel to a stereo channel if wanted? You know better quality..

Thank you so much for this apz it made the end of my year VERY happy!!!!

How can I set the bits from 8 to 16, and the 1 channel to a stereo channel if wanted? You know better quality..

Take a look at SetQuality and SetSettings. Use one or the other. They override each other settings.

For example:

--channels=2, samplesPerSec=44100, bitsPerSample=16;
AudioCapture.SetQuality(AudioCaptureQuality.High)

or

--channels = 1 (mono), 2 (stereo); samplesPerSec = 8000 (hz), 11025 (hz), 22050 (hz), 44100 (hz); bitsPerSample = 8, 16;
AudioCapture.SetSettings(channels, samplesPerSec, bitsPerSample)

After capture you can see the settings are applied by checking the audio file properties.

Happy New Year to all forum members.

I see where the settings are in global BUT how do I set it on the player? It is like default 8.. Or am I misunderstanding how to change it? I want to be able to go best quality stereo/and mono.

--Audio capture quality settings.
AudioCaptureQuality = {};
--channels=1, samplesPerSec=11025, bitsPerSample=8);
AudioCaptureQuality.Low = 0;
--channels=2, samplesPerSec=22050, bitsPerSample=16);
AudioCaptureQuality.Medium = 1;
--channels=2, samplesPerSec=44100, bitsPerSample=16);
AudioCaptureQuality.High = 2;

AudioCapture = {};
--Gets audio capture quality.
function AudioCapture.GetQuality()
	return DLL.CallFunction("AutoPlay\\Docs\\AudioCapture.dll", "GetQuality", "", DLL_RETURN_TYPE_STRING, DLL_CALL_STDCALL);
end
--Gets audio capture settings. [channels = 1 (mono), 2 (stereo); samplesPerSec = 8000 (hz), 11025 (hz), 22050 (hz), 44100 (hz); bitsPerSample = 8, 16;]
function AudioCapture.GetSettings()
	settings = DLL.CallFunction("AutoPlay\\Docs\\AudioCapture.dll", "GetSettings", "", DLL_RETURN_TYPE_STRING, DLL_CALL_STDCALL);
	return StringToTable(settings);

Where do I set it??

channels=2, samplesPerSec=44100, bitsPerSample=16);
AudioCaptureQuality.High = 2;

Gets audio capture settings. [channels = 1 (mono), 2 (stereo); samplesPerSec = 8000 (hz), 11025 (hz), 22050 (hz), 44100 (hz); bitsPerSample = 8, 16;]

Sorry for all the questions on New Years eve...
