Audio Library for Lazarus/Free Pascal

[Jackdaw]

While searching for Pascal Audio libraries. I came upon United OpenLib of Sound.
I shall have to have a play around with this.

What are you upto? Are you integrating this to CerberusX?

What are you upto? Are you integrating this to CerberusX?

Well I won't be integrating that into Cerberus X. Monkey X and Cerberus X are not the easiest things to integrate anything into it. And as this is a Pascal library, it's not as straight forward to write a Pascal library that can be called from C/C++, which is what the desktop targets for Cerberus X output.

And what am I up to, well I'm seeing if it's going to be any good for any future project I may start. Plus it's also being added to those lists of useful development tools I've be updating every so often.

Hows about BlitzmaxNG

I thought BlitzmaxNG is C

I thought BlitzmaxNG is C 

Yes but the posted audio library is written in Pascal. They use totally different calling conventions.

When i was doing audio @midimaster helped me get Beeper and AY going. You need to check midimaster's mima.audio. It's a lovely piece of work and is a C file originaly.

I have it still if it has been lost! I use it in my ZX Spectrum 128K emulator when i compile.

Im sure @midimaster will be back on the scene soon!  He's defo your man! And he aint going to stay away for long, im sure off it! 

Kind Regards Baggey

He's wrote a BliztMax wrapper for minaudio by David Reid (aka mackron).

Now I could write a Free Pascal language binding, providing it's not doing C specific data structures, like unnamed unions. I never did figure out how to get the z80 emulator data structure to work correctly with Pascal.

Here is the GitHub-Page where you can find the BlitzMax wrapper for MiniAudio.

It contains all code you need to run it: And also a manual /reference) and lot of blitzmax code examples.

The tutorial got lost, when Syntaxbomb closed... Maybe somebody will find it on wayback machine...


The wrapper code can also be a good source for how to bind C-libraries into languages like basic.

It's on me todo list to get stuff like that, I just havent had the time to have a good dig at it.
