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.

Ptr

using juce::SynthesiserSound::Ptr = ReferenceCountedObjectPtr<SynthesiserSound>

The class is reference-counted, so this is a handy pointer class for it.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

SynthesiserSound()

juce::SynthesiserSound::SynthesiserSound ( )

protected

~SynthesiserSound()

virtual juce::SynthesiserSound::~SynthesiserSound ( )

virtual

Destructor.

Member Function Documentation

appliesToChannel()

virtual bool juce::SynthesiserSound::appliesToChannel ( 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 juce::SamplerSound.

appliesToNote()

virtual bool juce::SynthesiserSound::appliesToNote ( 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 juce::SamplerSound.

decReferenceCount()

void juce::ReferenceCountedObject::decReferenceCount ( )

inlinenoexceptinherited

Decreases the object's reference count.

If the count gets to zero, the object will be deleted.

References jassert.

decReferenceCountWithoutDeleting()

bool juce::ReferenceCountedObject::decReferenceCountWithoutDeleting ( )

inlinenoexceptinherited

Decreases the object's reference count.

If the count gets to zero, the object will not be deleted, but this method will return true, allowing the caller to take care of deletion.

References jassert.

getReferenceCount()

int juce::ReferenceCountedObject::getReferenceCount ( ) const

inlinenoexceptinherited

Returns the object's current reference count.

incReferenceCount()

void juce::ReferenceCountedObject::incReferenceCount ( )

inlinenoexceptinherited

Increments the object's reference count.

This is done automatically by the smart pointer, but is public just in case it's needed for nefarious purposes.

resetReferenceCount()

void juce::ReferenceCountedObject::resetReferenceCount ( )

inlineprotectednoexceptinherited

Resets the reference count to zero without deleting the object.

You should probably never need to use this!
