frag (0.6.2 – released Oct 18 2003) -Fragments audio packets.
The frag device “re-packetizes” incoming audio data, that is, it creates packets that are larger or smaller than the incoming packets, while preserving sample and channel boundaries.
Released under theMIT license. Distributed with the MAS core.
datalog (0.6.2 – released Oct 18 2003) -Logs data segments and headers to a file or the server log.
Datalog is inserted in-line or at the end of an assemblage’s flow. Logging is configured dynamically. Output is sent to a file or to the server log. Packets can be logged in an ASCII terminal-compatible hexdump format or with their raw contents. If specified, only the data headers are logged.
Released under theMIT license. Distributed with the MAS core.
func (0.6.2 – released Oct 18 2003) -Generates test tones and signals.
The func device is an audio function generator. It can produce sine, triangle, and square wave shapes, as well as white and pink filtered noise.
Released under theMIT license. Distributed with the MAS core.
mix (0.6.2 – released Oct 18 2003) -Mixes audio streams.
The mix device is a software audio mixer, capable of mixing many simultaneous audio streams to one output source.
Released under theMIT license. Distributed with the MAS core.
net (0.6.2 – released Oct 18 2003) -Maps network connections to MAS ports.
The net device is the connection terminus for MAS servers and clients. It speaks RTP over TCP, UDP, and UNIX-domain sockets.
Released under theMIT license. Distributed with the MAS core.
ppm (0.6.2 – released Oct 18 2003) -Peaks program metering.
The ppm device provides a peak program meter output with an adjustable integration time. It is inserted in-line in an audio assemblage.
Released under theMIT license. Distributed with the MAS core.
sbuf (0.6.2 – released Oct 18 2003) -Buffers an audio stream.
The sbuf device buffers incoming audio data, preserving the data segment boundaries and the interpacket timing relationships. It offers its own output pacing algorithm and can be used to provide correctly paced audio output from an erratic or incorrectly paced source. In “keep” mode, data is not discarded, and the sbuf device can be used as a server-side cache for sound clips.
Released under theMIT license. Distributed with the MAS core.
source_mp1a (0.6.2 – released Oct 18 2003) -Acts as the source for MPEG-1 audio files.
The MPEG-1 source device reads MPEG-1 (including .mp3) format files from a storage device and emits MPEG frames from its source port.
Released under theMIT license. Distributed with the MAS core.
source_wav (0.6.2 – released Oct 18 2003) -Acts as the source for .WAV format audio files.
The .WAV source device reads .WAV format files from a storage device and emits “packetized” audio data from its source port.
Released under theMIT license. Distributed with the MAS core.
split (0.6.2 – released Oct 18 2003) -Splits one data sink to N data sources.
The split device replicates data received at its sink to zero or more sources.
Released under theMIT license. Distributed with the MAS core.
squant (0.6.2 – released Oct 18 2003) -“Requantizes” audio samples by changing their resolution.
