Format of Wave File in LabVIEW...

[sodlb]

hi friends,

In LabVIEW all sound file VIs....are Using waveform type...in which data 'Y' is in floating point data type..... 

In C and VB I have seen the "play sound code" in which  first wave file is opened and values are read in the Hexadecimal format i.e in Bytes and directly placing them in sound Card Buffers..can we do the same thing in Lab VIEW....so that i achive the same result as per the C and VB...

Thanks and Regards,

SODLB

Hi,

Thankyou for posting to the National Instruments Discussion Forums.

This sounds like a great product suggestion and you can file this at the Product Suggestion Center. The sound read VIs only read in the waveform format.

Is this conversion to double precision reducing performance? LabVIEW has a Play Sound VI that will run the input waveform on any sound card configured on your system.
