Unigine::SoundSource Class
| Header: | #include <UnigineSounds.h> |
| Inherits: | Node |
This class is used to create directional sound sources. The source's sound fades out linearly in a specified range (see getMinDistance() and getMaxDistance()). If inner and outer sound cones are defined, they will also have their share in the attenuation factor (see the getConeInnerAngle() and getConeOuterAngle() functions).
Sound sources are automatically handled by the sound manger. When the sound source is within the audible range, it is loaded into the memory (a full sample or its chunk, depending on whether the source is static or streamed). When it gets outside the audible range, the sound file is automatically deleted from the memory. Static sound sources are instanced; streamed ones are not.
If you still want to manage a sound source manually, you can check if it has stopped
playing and after that delete it.
There is also no limitation on the number of sound sources in the world, as only currently audible ones are rendered. In the worst case scenario, when the number of simultaneously heard sound sources exceeds the hardware capabilities, some of them will not played.
SoundSource Class
Members
static SoundSourcePtr create(const char * name, int stream = 0)
Constructor. Creates a new world sound source using a given sound sample file.Arguments
- const char * name - Path to the sound sample file.
- int stream - Positive value to create a streaming source, 0 to create a static source. If the flag is set, the sample will not be fully loaded into memory. Instead, its successive parts will be read one by one into a memory buffer.

Casts a SoundSource out of the Node instance.Arguments
- const Ptr<Node> & node - Pointer to Node.

Cone outer gain.void setConeOuterGainHF(float coneoutergainhf)
Updates the gain filter value for the sound source that attenuates the reverberation sound at high frequencies outside the oriented cone.Arguments
- float coneoutergainhf - High-frequency reverberation gain value in range [0.0;1.0].
float getConeOuterGainHF()
Returns the current gain filter value for the sound source that attenuates the reverberation sound at high frequencies outside the oriented cone.Return value
High-frequency reverberation gain value.void setGain(float gain)
Updates the gain controlling the sound intensity. Setting the value to 0.0 mutes the sound source.Arguments
- float gain - Gain value in range [0.0;1.0].
float getGain()
Returns the current gain controlling the sound intensity. Is set to 0, the sound source is muted.Return value
Gain value.float getLength()
Returns the total length of the sound sample.Return value

Updates a value indicating if the sample should be looped.Arguments
- int loop - Positive number to loop the sample, 0 to play it only once.
int getLoop()
Returns a value indicating if the sample is looped.Return value
Positive number if the sample is currently looped; otherwise, 0.void setMaxDistance(float distance)
Updates a distance, at which the sound completely fades out, in units.Arguments
- float distance - Distance in units.
float getMaxDistance()
Returns a distance, at which the sound completely fades out, in units.Return value
Distance in units.void setMinDistance(float distance)
Updates a distance, at which the sound starts to fade, in units.Arguments
- float distance - Distance in units.
float getMinDistance()
Returns a distance, at which the sound starts to fade, in units.Return value
Distance in units.void setOcclusion(int occlusion)
Updates a value indicating if the sound source should be muffled when being occluded.Arguments
- int occlusion - Positive number if the sound should be muffled by occlusion; otherwise, 0.
int getOcclusion()
Returns a value indicating if sound source should be muffled when being occluded.Return value
Positive number if the sound is muffled by occlusion; otherwise, 0.void setPitch(float pitch)
Updates a sound pitch.Arguments
- float pitch - Factor, by which the current pitch will be multiplied in range [0.1;10.0].
float getPitch()
Returns the current sound pitch.Return value
Factor, by which the pitch is multiplied.int isPlaying()
Returns a value indicating if the sample is currently being played.Return value
1 if the sample is being played; otherwise, 0.void setReverbMask(int mask)
Updates the bit mask that determines what reverberation zones can be heard. For sound to reverberate, at least one bit of this mask should match with the player's reverberation mask. At the same time, reverb mask of the reverberation zone should also match with the player's one (but not necessarily in the same bit as this mask matches it).Arguments
- int mask - Integer, each bit of which is a mask for reverberating sound sources.
int getReverbMask()
Returns the current bit mask that determines what reverberation zones can be heard. For sound to reverberate, at least one bit of this mask should match with the player's reverberation mask. At the same time, reverb mask of the reverberation zone should also match with the player's one (but not necessarily in the same bit as this mask matches it).Return value
Integer, each bit of which is a mask for reverberating sound sources.void setRoomRolloff(float rolloff)
Updates the scaling room rolloff factor for the sound source that determines attenuation of the reverberation sound over distance.Arguments
- float rolloff - Room rolloff factor in range [0.0; 10.0].
float getRoomRolloff()
Returns the current scaling room rolloff factor for the sound source that determines attenuation of the reverberation sound over distance.Return value

Reloads the internal sound source.Arguments

Returns a value indicating if playback is currently stopped.Return value
1 if the sample is stopped; otherwise, 0.void setTime(float time)
Updates time, from which the sample should be played.Notice
This function is ineffective if the sample is already playing. At first it is necessary to stop the playback, set the time, and then resume the playback.
Arguments

Returns the current time, at which the sample is being played.Return value
Time in seconds.void play()
Starts playing the sample.void stop()
Stops playback. This function saves the playback position so that playing of the file can be resumed from the same point.int type()
