Detailed Description

Describes one of the sounds that a Synthesiser can play.

A synthesiser can contain one or more sounds, and a sound can choose which midi notes and channels can trigger it.

The SynthesiserSound is a passive class that just describes what the sound is - the actual audio rendering for a sound is done by a SynthesiserVoice. This allows more than one SynthesiserVoice to play the same sound at the same time.

Destructor.

Member Function Documentation

virtual bool SynthesiserSound::appliesToNote ( const int  midiNoteNumber )

pure virtual

Returns true if this sound should be played when a given midi note is pressed.

The Synthesiser will use this information when deciding which sounds to trigger for a given note.

Implemented in SamplerSound.

virtual bool SynthesiserSound::appliesToChannel ( const int  midiChannel )

pure virtual

Returns true if the sound should be triggered by midi events on a given channel.

The Synthesiser will use this information when deciding which sounds to trigger for a given note.

Implemented in SamplerSound.
