Detailed Description

A special type of AudioProcessor that can live inside an AudioProcessorGraph in order to use the audio that comes into and out of the graph itself.

If you create an AudioGraphIOProcessor in "input" mode, it will act as a node in the graph which delivers the audio that is coming into the parent graph. This allows you to stream the data to other nodes and process the incoming audio.

Likewise, one of these in "output" mode can be sent data which it will add to the sum of data being sent to the graph's output.

◆ acceptsMidi()

bool juce::AudioProcessorGraph::AudioGraphIOProcessor::acceptsMidi ( ) const
overridevirtual

Returns true if the processor wants MIDI messages.

Implements juce::AudioProcessor.

◆ addBus()

bool juce::AudioProcessor::addBus ( bool  isInput)
inherited

Dynamically request an additional bus.

Request an additional bus from the audio processor. If the audio processor does not support adding additional buses then this method will return false.

Most audio processors will not allow you to dynamically add/remove audio buses and will return false.

This method will invoke the canApplyBusCountChange callback to probe if a bus can be added and, if yes, will use the supplied bus properties of the canApplyBusCountChange callback to create a new bus.

◆ canAddBus()

virtual bool juce::AudioProcessor::canAddBus ( bool  isInput) const
inlinevirtualinherited

Callback to query if a bus can currently be added.

This callback probes if a bus can currently be added. You should override this callback if you want to support dynamically adding/removing buses by the host. This is useful for mixer audio processors.

The default implementation will always return false.

See also
addBus

References juce::ignoreUnused().

◆ canApplyBusCountChange()

virtual bool juce::AudioProcessor::canApplyBusCountChange ( bool  isInput,
bool  isAddingBuses,
BusProperties outNewBusProperties 
)
protectedvirtualinherited

Callback to query if adding/removing buses currently possible.

This callback is called when the host calls addBus or removeBus. Similar to canApplyBusesLayout, this callback is only called while the AudioProcessor is stopped and gives the processor a last chance to reject a requested bus change. It can also be used to apply the bus count change to an underlying wrapped plug-in.

When adding a bus, isAddingBuses will be true and the plug-in is expected to fill out outNewBusProperties with the properties of the bus which will be created just after the successful return of this callback.

Implementations of AudioProcessor will rarely need to override this method. Only override this method if your processor supports adding and removing buses and if it needs more fine grain control over the naming of new buses or may reject bus number changes although canAddBus or canRemoveBus returned true.

The default implementation will return false if canAddBus/canRemoveBus returns false (the default behavior). Otherwise, this method returns "Input #busIndex" for input buses and "Output #busIndex" for output buses where busIndex is the index for newly created buses. The default layout in this case will be the layout of the previous bus of the same direction.

◆ canApplyBusesLayout()

virtual bool juce::AudioProcessor::canApplyBusesLayout ( const BusesLayout layouts) const
inlineprotectedvirtualinherited

Callback to check if a certain bus layout can now be applied.

Most subclasses will not need to override this method and should instead override the isBusesLayoutSupported callback to reject certain layout changes.

This callback is called when the user requests a layout change. It will only be called if processing of the AudioProcessor has been stopped by a previous call to releaseResources or after the construction of the AudioProcessor. It will be called just before the actual layout change. By returning false you will abort the layout change and setBusesLayout will return false indicating that the layout change was not successful.

The default implementation will simply call isBusesLayoutSupported.

You only need to override this method if there is a chance that your AudioProcessor may not accept a layout although you have previously claimed to support it via the isBusesLayoutSupported callback. This can occur if your AudioProcessor's supported layouts depend on other plug-in parameters which may have changed since the last call to isBusesLayoutSupported, such as the format of an audio file which can be selected by the user in the AudioProcessor's editor. This callback gives the AudioProcessor a last chance to reject a layout if conditions have changed as it is always called just before the actual layout change.

As it is never called while the AudioProcessor is processing audio, it can also be used for AudioProcessors which wrap other plug-in formats to apply the current layout to the underlying plug-in. This callback gives such AudioProcessors a chance to reject the layout change should an error occur with the underlying plug-in during the layout change.

isBusesLayoutSupported, setBusesLayout

◆ canRemoveBus()

virtual bool juce::AudioProcessor::canRemoveBus ( bool  isInput) const
inlinevirtualinherited

Callback to query if the last bus can currently be removed.

This callback probes if the last bus can currently be removed. You should override this callback if you want to support dynamically adding/removing buses by the host. This is useful for mixer audio processors.

If you return true in this callback then the AudioProcessor will go ahead and delete the bus.

The default implementation will always return false.

References juce::ignoreUnused().

◆ changeProgramName()

void juce::AudioProcessorGraph::AudioGraphIOProcessor::changeProgramName ( int  index,
const String newName 
)
overridevirtual

Called by the host to rename a program.

Implements juce::AudioProcessor.

◆ checkBusesLayoutSupported()

bool juce::AudioProcessor::checkBusesLayoutSupported ( const BusesLayout ) const
inherited

Returns true if the Audio processor is likely to support a given layout.

This can be called regardless if the processor is currently running.

◆ checkForDuplicateGroupIDs()

void juce::AudioProcessor::checkForDuplicateGroupIDs ( const AudioProcessorParameterGroup )
privateinherited

◆ checkForDuplicateParamID()

void juce::AudioProcessor::checkForDuplicateParamID ( AudioProcessorParameter )

const Array< InOutChannelPair > &   
)
staticprivateinherited

◆ containsLayout() [2/3]

template<size_t numLayouts>
static bool juce::AudioProcessor::containsLayout ( const BusesLayout layouts,

◆ containsLayout() [3/3]

static bool juce::AudioProcessor::containsLayout ( const BusesLayout layouts,
const std::initializer_list< const short[2]> &  channelLayoutList 
)
inlinestaticinherited

Returns true if the channel layout map contains a certain layout.

You can use this method to help you implement the checkBusesLayoutSupported method. For example

bool checkBusesLayoutSupported (const BusesLayout& layouts) override
{
return containsLayout (layouts, {{1,1},{2,2}});
}

◆ copyXmlToBinary()

static void juce::AudioProcessor::copyXmlToBinary ( const XmlElement xml,
juce::MemoryBlock destData 
)
staticinherited

Helper function that just converts an xml element into a binary blob.

Use this in your processor's getStateInformation() method if you want to store its state as xml.

Then use getXmlFromBinary() to reverse this operation and retrieve the XML from a binary blob.

◆ createBus()

void juce::AudioProcessor::createBus ( bool  isInput,
const BusProperties  
)
privateinherited

◆ createEditor()

AudioProcessorEditor* juce::AudioProcessorGraph::AudioGraphIOProcessor::createEditor ( )
overridevirtual

Creates the processor's GUI.

This can return nullptr if you want a GUI-less processor, in which case the host may create a generic UI that lets the user twiddle the parameters directly.

If you do want to pass back a component, the component should be created and set to the correct size before returning it. If you implement this method, you must also implement the hasEditor() method and make it return true.

Remember not to do anything silly like allowing your processor to keep a pointer to the component that gets created - it could be deleted later without any warning, which would make your pointer into a dangler. Use the getActiveEditor() method instead.

The correct way to handle the connection between an editor component and its processor is to use something like a ChangeBroadcaster so that the editor can register itself as a listener, and be told when a change occurs. This lets them safely unregister themselves when they are deleted.

Here are a few things to bear in mind when writing an editor:

  • Initially there won't be an editor, until the user opens one, or they might not open one at all. Your processor mustn't rely on it being there.
  • An editor object may be deleted and a replacement one created again at any time.
  • It's safe to assume that an editor will be deleted before its processor.

◆ createEditorIfNeeded()

AudioProcessorEditor* juce::AudioProcessor::createEditorIfNeeded ( )
inherited

Returns the active editor, or if there isn't one, it will create one.

This may call createEditor() internally to create the component.

◆ disableNonMainBuses()

bool juce::AudioProcessor::disableNonMainBuses ( )
inherited

Disables all non-main buses (aux and sidechains).

◆ editorBeingDeleted()

void juce::AudioProcessor::editorBeingDeleted ( AudioProcessorEditor )
noexceptinherited

Not for public use - this is called before deleting an editor component.

◆ enableAllBuses()

bool juce::AudioProcessor::enableAllBuses ( )
inherited

Enables all buses.

◆ fillInPluginDescription()

void juce::AudioProcessorGraph::AudioGraphIOProcessor::fillInPluginDescription ( PluginDescription ) const
overridevirtual

Fills-in the appropriate parts of this plugin description object.

Implements juce::AudioPluginInstance.

◆ getAAXPluginIDForMainBusConfig()

virtual int32 juce::AudioProcessor::getAAXPluginIDForMainBusConfig ( const AudioChannelSet mainInputLayout,
const AudioChannelSet mainOutputLayout,
bool  idForAudioSuite 
) const
virtualinherited

AAX plug-ins need to report a unique "plug-in id" for every audio layout configuration that your AudioProcessor supports on the main bus.

Override this function if you want your AudioProcessor to use a custom "plug-in id" (for example to stay backward compatible with older versions of JUCE).

The default implementation will compute a unique integer from the input and output layout and add this value to the 4 character code 'jcaa' (for native AAX) or 'jyaa' (for AudioSuite plug-ins).

◆ getActiveEditor()

AudioProcessorEditor* juce::AudioProcessor::getActiveEditor ( ) const
noexceptinherited

Returns the active editor, if there is one.

Bear in mind this can return nullptr even if an editor has previously been opened.

Note that you should only call this method from the message thread as the active editor may be deleted by the message thread, causing a dangling pointer.

◆ getAlternateDisplayNames()

virtual StringArray juce::AudioProcessor::getAlternateDisplayNames ( ) const
virtualinherited

Returns a list of alternative names to use for this processor.

Some hosts truncate the name of your AudioProcessor when there isn't enough space in the GUI to show the full name. Overriding this method, allows the host to choose an alternative name (such as an abbreviation) to better fit the available space.

◆ getBlockSize()

int juce::AudioProcessor::getBlockSize ( ) const
inlinenoexceptinherited

Returns the current typical block size that is being used.

This can be called from your processBlock() method - it's not guaranteed to be valid at any other time.

Remember it's not the ONLY block size that may be used when calling processBlock, it's just the normal one. The actual block sizes used may be larger or smaller than this, and will vary between successive calls.

◆ getBus() [1/2]

const Bus* juce::AudioProcessor::getBus ( bool  isInput,
int  busIndex 
) const
inlinenoexceptinherited

Returns the audio bus with a given index and direction.

If busIndex is invalid then this method will return a nullptr.

◆ getBus() [2/2]

Bus* juce::AudioProcessor::getBus ( bool  isInput,
int  busIndex 
)
inlinenoexceptinherited

Returns the audio bus with a given index and direction.

If busIndex is invalid then this method will return a nullptr.

◆ getBusBuffer()

template<typename FloatType >
AudioBuffer<FloatType> juce::AudioProcessor::getBusBuffer ( AudioBuffer< FloatType > &  processBlockBuffer,
bool  isInput,
int  busIndex 
) const
inlineinherited

Returns an AudioBuffer containing a set of channel pointers for a specific bus.

This can be called in processBlock to get a buffer containing a sub-group of the master AudioBuffer which contains all the plugin channels.

References juce::AudioBuffer< Type >::getArrayOfWritePointers(), and juce::AudioBuffer< Type >::getNumSamples().

◆ getBusCount()

int juce::AudioProcessor::getBusCount ( bool  isInput) const
inlinenoexceptinherited

Returns the number of buses on the input or output side.

◆ getBusesLayout()

BusesLayout juce::AudioProcessor::getBusesLayout ( ) const
inherited

Provides the current channel layouts of this audio processor.

◆ getBypassParameter()

virtual AudioProcessorParameter* juce::AudioProcessor::getBypassParameter ( ) const
inlinevirtualinherited

Returns the parameter that controls the AudioProcessor's bypass state.

If this method returns a nullptr then you can still control the bypass by calling processBlockBypassed instead of processBlock. On the other hand, if this method returns a non-null value, you should never call processBlockBypassed but use the returned parameter to control the bypass state instead.

A plug-in can override this function to return a parameter which control's your plug-in's bypass. You should always check the value of this parameter in your processBlock callback and bypass any effects if it is non-zero.

◆ getCallbackLock()

const CriticalSection& juce::AudioProcessor::getCallbackLock ( ) const
inlinenoexceptinherited

This returns a critical section that will automatically be locked while the host is calling the processBlock() method.

Use it from your UI or other threads to lock access to variables that are used by the process callback, but obviously be careful not to keep it locked for too long, because that could cause stuttering playback. If you need to do something that'll take a long time and need the processing to stop while it happens, use the suspendProcessing() method instead.

suspendProcessing

◆ getChannelCountOfBus()

int juce::AudioProcessor::getChannelCountOfBus ( bool  isInput,
int  busIndex 
) const
inlinenoexceptinherited

Provides the number of channels of the bus with a given index and direction.

If the index, direction combination is invalid then this will return zero.

◆ getChannelIndexInProcessBlockBuffer()

int juce::AudioProcessor::getChannelIndexInProcessBlockBuffer ( bool  isInput,
int  busIndex,
int  channelIndex 
) const
noexceptinherited

Returns the position of a bus's channels within the processBlock buffer.

This can be called in processBlock to figure out which channel of the master AudioBuffer maps onto a specific bus's channel.

◆ getChannelLayoutOfBus()

AudioChannelSet juce::AudioProcessor::getChannelLayoutOfBus ( bool  isInput,
int  busIndex 
) const
noexceptinherited

Provides the channel layout of the bus with a given index and direction.

If the index, direction combination is invalid then this will return an AudioChannelSet with no channels.

◆ getCurrentProgram()

int juce::AudioProcessorGraph::AudioGraphIOProcessor::getCurrentProgram ( )
overridevirtual

Returns the number of the currently active program.

Implements juce::AudioProcessor.

◆ getCurrentProgramStateInformation()

virtual void juce::AudioProcessor::getCurrentProgramStateInformation ( juce::MemoryBlock destData)
virtualinherited

The host will call this method if it wants to save the state of just the processor's current program.

Unlike getStateInformation, this should only return the current program's state.

Not all hosts support this, and if you don't implement it, the base class method just calls getStateInformation() instead. If you do implement it, be sure to also implement getCurrentProgramStateInformation.

See also
getStateInformation, setCurrentProgramStateInformation

◆ getDefaultNumParameterSteps()

static int juce::AudioProcessor::getDefaultNumParameterSteps ( )
staticnoexceptinherited

Returns the default number of steps for a parameter.

NOTE! This method is deprecated! It's recommended that you use AudioProcessorParameter::getNumSteps() instead.

See also
getParameterNumSteps

◆ getExtensions()

virtual void juce::AudioPluginInstance::getExtensions ( ExtensionsVisitor ) const
virtualinherited

Allows retrieval of information related to the inner workings of a particular plugin format, such as the AEffect* of a VST, or the handle of an AudioUnit.

To use this, create a new class derived from ExtensionsVisitor, and override each of the visit member functions. If this AudioPluginInstance wraps a VST3 plugin the visitVST3() member will be called, while if the AudioPluginInstance wraps an unknown format the visitUnknown() member will be called. The argument of the visit function can be queried to extract information related to the AudioPluginInstance's implementation.

◆ getHostedParameter()

HostedParameter* juce::AudioPluginInstance::getHostedParameter ( int  index) const
inherited

Gets the parameter at a particular index.

If you want to find lots of parameters by their IDs, you should probably build and use a map<String, HostedParameter*> by looping through all parameters.

◆ getLatencySamples()

int juce::AudioProcessor::getLatencySamples ( ) const
inlinenoexceptinherited

This returns the number of samples delay that the processor imposes on the audio passing through it.

The host will call this to find the latency - the processor itself should set this value by calling setLatencySamples() as soon as it can during its initialisation.

◆ getListenerLocked()

AudioProcessorListener* juce::AudioProcessor::getListenerLocked ( int  ) const
privatenoexceptinherited

◆ getMainBusNumInputChannels()

int juce::AudioProcessor::getMainBusNumInputChannels ( ) const
inlinenoexceptinherited

template<size_t numLayouts>
BusesLayout juce::AudioProcessor::getNextBestLayoutInLayoutList ( const BusesLayout layouts,
const short(&)  channelLayoutList[numLayouts][2] 
)
inlineinherited

Returns the next best layout which is contained in a channel layout map.

You can use this method to help you implement getNextBestLayout. For example:

BusesLayout getNextBestLayout (const BusesLayout& layouts) override
{
return getNextBestLayoutInLayoutList (layouts, {{1,1},{2,2}});
}

◆ getNextBestLayoutInList()

BusesLayout juce::AudioProcessor::getNextBestLayoutInList ( const BusesLayout ,
const Array< InOutChannelPair > &   
) const
privateinherited

◆ getNumPrograms()

int juce::AudioProcessorGraph::AudioGraphIOProcessor::getNumPrograms ( )
overridevirtual

Returns the number of preset programs the processor supports.

The value returned must be valid as soon as this object is created, and must not change over its lifetime.

This value shouldn't be less than 1.

Implements juce::AudioProcessor.

◆ getOffsetInBusBufferForAbsoluteChannelIndex()

int juce::AudioProcessor::getOffsetInBusBufferForAbsoluteChannelIndex ( bool  isInput,
int  absoluteChannelIndex,
int busIndex 
) const
noexceptinherited

Returns the offset in a bus's buffer from an absolute channel index.

This method returns the offset in a bus's buffer given an absolute channel index. It also provides the bus index. For example, this method would return one for a processor with two stereo buses when given the absolute channel index.

◆ getParamChecked()

AudioProcessorParameter* juce::AudioProcessor::getParamChecked ( int  ) const
privateinherited

◆ getParameters()

const Array<AudioProcessorParameter*>& juce::AudioProcessor::getParameters ( ) const
inherited

Returns a flat list of the parameters in the current tree.

◆ getParameterTree()

const AudioProcessorParameterGroup& juce::AudioProcessor::getParameterTree ( ) const
inherited

Returns the group of parameters managed by this AudioProcessor.

◆ getParentGraph()

AudioProcessorGraph* juce::AudioProcessorGraph::AudioGraphIOProcessor::getParentGraph ( ) const
inlinenoexcept

Returns the parent graph to which this processor belongs, or nullptr if it hasn't yet been added to one.

◆ getPlayHead()

AudioPlayHead* juce::AudioProcessor::getPlayHead ( ) const
inlinenoexceptinherited

Returns the current AudioPlayHead object that should be used to find out the state and position of the playhead.

You can ONLY call this from your processBlock() method! Calling it at other times will produce undefined behaviour, as the host may not have any context in which a time would make sense, and some hosts will almost certainly have multithreading issues if it's not called on the audio thread.

The AudioPlayHead object that is returned can be used to get the details about the time of the start of the block currently being processed. But do not store this pointer or use it outside of the current audio callback, because the host may delete or re-use it.

If the host can't or won't provide any time info, this will return nullptr.

◆ getPluginDescription()

PluginDescription juce::AudioPluginInstance::getPluginDescription ( ) const
inherited

Returns a PluginDescription for this plugin.

This is just a convenience method to avoid calling fillInPluginDescription.

◆ getProcessingPrecision()

ProcessingPrecision juce::AudioProcessor::getProcessingPrecision ( ) const
inlinenoexceptinherited

Returns the precision-mode of the processor.

Depending on the result of this method you MUST call the corresponding version of processBlock. The default processing precision is single precision.

◆ getResponseCurve()

virtual CurveData juce::AudioProcessor::getResponseCurve ( CurveData::Type  ) const
inlinevirtualinherited

◆ getSampleRate()

double juce::AudioProcessor::getSampleRate ( ) const
inlinenoexceptinherited

Returns the current sample rate.

This can be called from your processBlock() method - it's not guaranteed to be valid at any other time, and may return 0 if it's unknown.

◆ getStateInformation()

void juce::AudioProcessorGraph::AudioGraphIOProcessor::getStateInformation ( juce::MemoryBlock destData)
overridevirtual

The host will call this method when it wants to save the processor's internal state.

This must copy any info about the processor's state into the block of memory provided, so that the host can store this and later restore it using setStateInformation().

Note that there's also a getCurrentProgramStateInformation() method, which only stores the current program, not the state of the entire processor.

See also the helper function copyXmlToBinary() for storing settings as XML.

Implements juce::AudioProcessor.

◆ getTailLengthSeconds()

double juce::AudioProcessorGraph::AudioGraphIOProcessor::getTailLengthSeconds ( ) const
overridevirtual

Returns the length of the processor's tail, in seconds.

Implements juce::AudioProcessor.

◆ getTotalNumInputChannels()

int juce::AudioProcessor::getTotalNumInputChannels ( ) const
inlinenoexceptinherited

Returns the total number of input channels.

This method will return the total number of input channels by accumulating the number of channels on each input bus. The number of channels of the buffer passed to your processBlock callback will be equivalent to either getTotalNumInputChannels or getTotalNumOutputChannels - which ever is greater.

Note that getTotalNumInputChannels is equivalent to getMainBusNumInputChannels if your processor does not have any sidechains or aux buses.

◆ getTotalNumOutputChannels()

int juce::AudioProcessor::getTotalNumOutputChannels ( ) const
inlinenoexceptinherited

Returns the total number of output channels.

This method will return the total number of output channels by accumulating the number of channels on each output bus. The number of channels of the buffer passed to your processBlock callback will be equivalent to either getTotalNumInputChannels or getTotalNumOutputChannels - which ever is greater.

Note that getTotalNumOutputChannels is equivalent to getMainBusNumOutputChannels if your processor does not have any sidechains or aux buses.

◆ getType()

IODeviceType juce::AudioProcessorGraph::AudioGraphIOProcessor::getType ( ) const
inlinenoexcept

Returns the mode of this processor.

References juce::gl::type.

◆ getWrapperTypeDescription()

static const char* juce::AudioProcessor::getWrapperTypeDescription ( AudioProcessor::WrapperType  )

◆ getXmlFromBinary()

static std::unique_ptr<XmlElement> juce::AudioProcessor::getXmlFromBinary ( const void *  data,
int  sizeInBytes

staticinherited

Retrieves an XML element that was stored as binary with the copyXmlToBinary() method.

This might return nullptr if the data's unsuitable or corrupted.

◆ hasEditor()

bool juce::AudioProcessorGraph::AudioGraphIOProcessor::hasEditor ( ) const
overridevirtual

Your processor subclass must override this and return true if it can create an editor component.

createEditor

Implements juce::AudioProcessor.

◆ isBusesLayoutSupported()

virtual bool juce::AudioProcessor::isBusesLayoutSupported ( const BusesLayout ) const
inlineprotectedvirtualinherited

Callback to query if the AudioProcessor supports a specific layout.

This callback is called when the host probes the supported bus layouts via the checkBusesLayoutSupported method. You should override this callback if you would like to limit the layouts that your AudioProcessor supports. The default implementation will accept any layout. JUCE does basic sanity checks so that the provided layouts parameter will have the same number of buses as your AudioProcessor.

See also
checkBusesLayoutSupported

◆ isInput()

bool juce::AudioProcessorGraph::AudioGraphIOProcessor::isInput ( ) const
noexcept

True if this is an audio or midi input.

◆ isMidiEffect()

virtual bool juce::AudioProcessor::isMidiEffect ( ) const
inlinevirtualinherited

Returns true if this is a MIDI effect plug-in and does no audio processing.

◆ isNonRealtime()

bool juce::AudioProcessor::isNonRealtime ( ) const
inlinenoexceptinherited

Returns true if the processor is being run in an offline mode for rendering.

If the processor is being run live on realtime signals, this returns false. If the mode is unknown, this will assume it's realtime and return false.

This value may be unreliable until the prepareToPlay() method has been called, and could change each time prepareToPlay() is called.

See also
setNonRealtime()

◆ isOutput()

bool juce::AudioProcessorGraph::AudioGraphIOProcessor::isOutput ( ) const
noexcept

True if this is an audio or midi output.

◆ isSuspended()

◆ memoryWarningReceived()

virtual void juce::AudioProcessor::memoryWarningReceived ( )
inlinevirtualinherited

Called by the host to indicate that you should reduce your memory footprint.

You should override this method to free up some memory gracefully, if possible, otherwise the host may forcibly unload your AudioProcessor.

At the moment this method is only called when your AudioProcessor is an AUv3 plug-in running on iOS.

References jassertfalse.

◆ numBusesChanged()

virtual void juce::AudioProcessor::numBusesChanged ( )
virtualinherited

This method is called when the number of buses is changed.

◆ numChannelsChanged()

virtual void juce::AudioProcessor::numChannelsChanged ( )
virtualinherited

This method is called when the total number of input or output channels is changed.

◆ prepareToPlay()

void juce::AudioProcessorGraph::AudioGraphIOProcessor::prepareToPlay ( double  sampleRate,
int  maximumExpectedSamplesPerBlock 
)
overridevirtual

Called before playback starts, to let the processor prepare itself.

The sample rate is the target sample rate, and will remain constant until playback stops.

You can call getTotalNumInputChannels and getTotalNumOutputChannels or query the busLayout member variable to find out the number of channels your processBlock callback must process.

The maximumExpectedSamplesPerBlock value is a strong hint about the maximum number of samples that will be provided in each block. You may want to use this value to resize internal buffers. You should program defensively in case a buggy host exceeds this value. The actual block sizes that the host uses may be different each time the callback happens: completely variable block sizes can be expected from some hosts.

◆ processBlock() [1/2]

void juce::AudioProcessorGraph::AudioGraphIOProcessor::processBlock ( AudioBuffer< double > &  buffer,
MidiBuffer midiMessages 
)
overridevirtual

Renders the next block.

When this method is called, the buffer contains a number of channels which is at least as great as the maximum number of input and output channels that this processor is using. It will be filled with the processor's input data and should be replaced with the processor's output.

So for example if your processor has a combined total of 2 input channels and 4 output channels, then the buffer will contain 4 channels, the first two being filled with the input data. Your processor should read these, do its processing, and replace the contents of all 4 channels with its output.

Or if your processor has 5 inputs and 2 outputs, the buffer will have 5 channels, all filled with data, and your processor should overwrite the first 2 of these with its output. But be VERY careful not to write anything to the last 3 channels, as these might be mapped to memory that the host assumes is read-only!

If your plug-in has more than one input or output buses then the buffer passed to the processBlock methods will contain a bundle of all channels of each bus. Use getBusBuffer to obtain a audio buffer for a particular bus.

Note that if you have more outputs than inputs, then only those channels that correspond to an input channel are guaranteed to contain sensible data - e.g. in the case of 2 inputs and 4 outputs, the first two channels contain the input, but the last two channels may contain garbage, so you should be careful not to let this pass through without being overwritten or cleared.

Also note that the buffer may have more channels than are strictly necessary, but you should only read/write from the ones that your processor is supposed to be using.

If your plugin uses buses, then you should use getBusBuffer() or getChannelIndexInProcessBlockBuffer() to find out which of the input and output channels correspond to which of the buses.

The number of samples in these buffers is NOT guaranteed to be the same for every callback, and may be more or less than the estimated value given to prepareToPlay(). Your code must be able to cope with variable-sized blocks, or you're going to get clicks and crashes!

Also note that some hosts will occasionally decide to pass a buffer containing zero samples, so make sure that your algorithm can deal with that!

If the processor is receiving a MIDI input, then the midiMessages array will be filled with the MIDI messages for this block. Each message's timestamp will indicate the message's time, as a number of samples from the start of the block.

Any messages left in the MIDI buffer when this method has finished are assumed to be the processor's MIDI output. This means that your processor should be careful to clear any incoming messages from the array if it doesn't want them to be passed-on.

If you have implemented the getBypassParameter method, then you need to check the value of this parameter in this callback and bypass your processing if the parameter has a non-zero value.

Note that when calling this method as a host, the result may still be bypassed as the parameter that controls the bypass may be non-zero.

Be very careful about what you do in this callback - it's going to be called by the audio thread, so any kind of interaction with the UI is absolutely out of the question. If you change a parameter in here and need to tell your UI to update itself, the best way is probably to inherit from a ChangeBroadcaster, let the UI components register as listeners, and then call sendChangeMessage() inside the processBlock() method to send out an asynchronous message. You could also use the AsyncUpdater class in a similar way.

virtual void juce::AudioProcessor::processBlockBypassed ( AudioBuffer< double > &  buffer,
MidiBuffer midiMessages

virtualinherited

Renders the next block when the processor is being bypassed.

The default implementation of this method will pass-through any incoming audio, but you may override this method e.g. to add latency compensation to the data to match the processor's latency characteristics. This will avoid situations where bypassing will shift the signal forward in time, possibly creating pre-echo effects and odd timings. Another use for this method would be to cross-fade or morph between the wet (not bypassed) and dry (bypassed) signals.

◆ processBlockBypassed() [2/2]

Dynamically remove the latest added bus.

Request the removal of the last bus from the audio processor. If the audio processor does not support removing buses then this method will return false.

Most audio processors will not allow you to dynamically add/remove audio buses and will return false.

The default implementation will return false.

This method will invoke the canApplyBusCountChange callback to probe if a bus can currently be removed and, if yes, will go ahead and remove it.

Set the channel layouts of this audio processor without changing the enablement state of the buses.

If the layout is not supported by this audio processor then this method will return false. You can use the checkBusesLayoutSupported methods to probe which layouts this audio processor supports.

◆ setChannelLayoutOfBus()

bool juce::AudioProcessor::setChannelLayoutOfBus ( bool  isInput,
int  busIndex,
const AudioChannelSet layout 
)
inherited

Set the channel layout of the bus with a given index and direction.

If the index, direction combination is invalid or the layout is not supported by the audio processor then this method will return false.

◆ setCurrentProgram()

void juce::AudioProcessorGraph::AudioGraphIOProcessor::setCurrentProgram ( int  index)
overridevirtual

Called by the host to change the current program.

Implements juce::AudioProcessor.

◆ setCurrentProgramStateInformation()

virtual void juce::AudioProcessor::setCurrentProgramStateInformation ( const void *  data,
int  sizeInBytes 
)
virtualinherited

The host will call this method if it wants to restore the state of just the processor's current program.

Not all hosts support this, and if you don't implement it, the base class method just calls setStateInformation() instead. If you do implement it, be sure to also implement getCurrentProgramStateInformation.

setStateInformation, getCurrentProgramStateInformation

◆ setHostedParameterTree()

void juce::AudioPluginInstance::setHostedParameterTree ( AudioProcessorParameterGroup  )
inherited

Adds multiple parameters to this instance.

In debug mode, this will also check that all added parameters derive from HostedParameter.

AudioProcessor::setParameterTree()

◆ setLatencySamples()

void juce::AudioProcessor::setLatencySamples ( int  newLatency)
inherited

Your processor subclass should call this to set the number of samples delay that it introduces.

The processor should call this as soon as it can during initialisation, and can call it later if the value changes.

◆ setNonRealtime()

virtual void juce::AudioProcessor::setNonRealtime ( bool  isNonRealtime)
virtualnoexceptinherited

Called by the host to tell this processor whether it's being used in a non-realtime capacity for offline rendering or bouncing.

Reimplemented in juce::AudioProcessorGraph.

◆ setParameterTree() [1/2]

void juce::AudioProcessor::setParameterTree
privateinherited

Sets the group of parameters managed by this AudioProcessor.

Replacing the tree after your AudioProcessor has been constructed will crash many hosts, so don't do it! You may, however, change parameter and group names by iterating the tree returned by getParameterTree(). Afterwards, call updateHostDisplay() to inform the host of the changes. Not all hosts support dynamic changes to parameters and group names.

◆ setParameterTree() [2/2]

void juce::AudioProcessor::setParameterTree ( AudioProcessorParameterGroup &&  newTree)
inherited

Sets the group of parameters managed by this AudioProcessor.

Replacing the tree after your AudioProcessor has been constructed will crash many hosts, so don't do it! You may, however, change parameter and group names by iterating the tree returned by getParameterTree(). Afterwards, call updateHostDisplay() to inform the host of the changes. Not all hosts support dynamic changes to parameters and group names.

◆ setParentGraph()

void juce::AudioProcessorGraph::AudioGraphIOProcessor::setParentGraph ( AudioProcessorGraph )

◆ setPlayConfigDetails()

void juce::AudioProcessor::setPlayConfigDetails ( int  numIns,
int  numOuts,
double  sampleRate,
int  blockSize 
)
inherited

This is called by the processor to specify its details before being played.

Use this version of the function if you are not interested in any sidechain and/or aux buses and do not care about the layout of channels. Otherwise use setRateAndBufferSizeDetails.

◆ setPlayHead()

virtual void juce::AudioProcessor::setPlayHead ( AudioPlayHead newPlayHead)
virtualinherited

Tells the processor to use this playhead object.

The processor will not take ownership of the object, so the caller must delete it when it is no longer being used.

◆ setProcessingPrecision()

void juce::AudioProcessor::setProcessingPrecision ( ProcessingPrecision  newPrecision)
noexceptinherited

Changes the processing precision of the receiver.

A client of the AudioProcessor calls this function to indicate which version of processBlock (single or double precision) it intends to call. The client MUST call this function before calling the prepareToPlay method so that the receiver can do any necessary allocations in the prepareToPlay() method. An implementation of prepareToPlay() should call getProcessingPrecision() to determine with which precision it should allocate it's internal buffers.

Note that setting the processing precision to double floating point precision on a receiver which does not support double precision processing (i.e. supportsDoublePrecisionProcessing() returns false) will result in an assertion.

getProcessingPrecision, supportsDoublePrecisionProcessing

◆ setRateAndBufferSizeDetails()

void juce::AudioProcessor::setRateAndBufferSizeDetails ( double  sampleRate,
int  blockSize 
)
noexceptinherited

This is called by the processor to specify its details before being played.

You should call this function after having informed the processor about the channel and bus layouts via setBusesLayout.

See also
setBusesLayout

◆ setStateInformation()

void juce::AudioProcessorGraph::AudioGraphIOProcessor::setStateInformation ( const void *  data,
int  sizeInBytes 
)
overridevirtual

This must restore the processor's state from a block of data previously created using getStateInformation().

Note that there's also a setCurrentProgramStateInformation() method, which tries to restore just the current program, not the state of the entire processor.

See also the helper function getXmlFromBinary() for loading settings as XML.

See also
setCurrentProgramStateInformation

Implements juce::AudioProcessor.

◆ setTypeOfNextNewPlugin()

static void juce::AudioProcessor::setTypeOfNextNewPlugin ( WrapperType  )
staticinherited

◆ silenceInProducesSilenceOut()

virtual bool juce::AudioProcessor::silenceInProducesSilenceOut ( ) const
inlineprivatevirtualinherited

◆ supportsDoublePrecisionProcessing()

bool juce::AudioProcessorGraph::AudioGraphIOProcessor::supportsDoublePrecisionProcessing ( ) const
overridevirtual

Returns true if the Audio processor supports double precision floating point processing.

The default implementation will always return false. If you return true here then you must override the double precision versions of processBlock. Additionally, you must call getProcessingPrecision() in your prepareToPlay method to determine the precision with which you need to allocate your internal buffers.

See also
getProcessingPrecision, setProcessingPrecision

Reimplemented from juce::AudioProcessor.

◆ supportsMPE()

virtual bool juce::AudioProcessor::supportsMPE ( ) const
inlinevirtualinherited

Returns true if the processor supports MPE.

◆ suspendProcessing()

void juce::AudioProcessor::suspendProcessing ( bool  shouldBeSuspended)
inherited

Enables and disables the processing callback.

If you need to do something time-consuming on a thread and would like to make sure the audio processing callback doesn't happen until you've finished, use this to disable the callback and re-enable it again afterwards.

E.g.

void loadNewPatch()
{
..do something that takes ages..
}

If the host tries to make an audio callback while processing is suspended, the processor will return an empty buffer, but won't block the audio thread like it would do if you use the getCallbackLock() critical section to synchronise access.

Any code that calls processBlock() should call isSuspended() before doing so, and if the processor is suspended, it should avoid the call and emit silence or whatever is appropriate.

See also
getCallbackLock

◆ updateHostDisplay()

void juce::AudioProcessor::updateHostDisplay ( const ChangeDetails details = ChangeDetails::getDefaultFlags())
inherited

The processor can call this when something (apart from a parameter value) has changed.

It sends a hint to the host that something like the program, number of parameters, etc, has changed, and that it should update itself.

◆ updateSpeakerFormatStrings()

void juce::AudioProcessor::updateSpeakerFormatStrings ( )
privateinherited

◆ updateTrackProperties()

virtual void juce::AudioProcessor::updateTrackProperties ( const TrackProperties properties)
virtualinherited

Informs the AudioProcessor that track properties such as the track's name or colour has been changed.

If you are hosting this AudioProcessor then use this method to inform the AudioProcessor about which track the AudioProcessor is loaded on. This method may only be called on the message thread.

If you are implementing an AudioProcessor then you can override this callback to do something useful with the track properties such as changing the colour of your AudioProcessor's editor. It's entirely up to the host when and how often this callback will be called.

The default implementation of this callback will do nothing.
