Effects.DirectXApply method (Echo)

Return to chapter overview

Remarks

 

Applies a Echo effect to the given portion of sound under editing. This method is not available for COM interoperability: in alternative you can use the Effects.DirectXApplyEcho method.

 

DirectX effects requires the availability of DirectX version 8 or higher on the target system and can be applied only if a call to the GetDirectSoundVersion method returns a value higher than 7.

 

For further details about methods related to the use of special effects refer to the EffectsMan class.

 

 

Syntax

 

[Visual Basic]

Public Function DirectXApply (

nStartPosition as Int32,

nEndPosition as Int32,

fx as Microsoft.DirectX.DirectSound.EffectsEcho

) as enumErrorCodes


 

[C#]

public enumErrorCodes DirectXApply (

Int32 nStartPosition,

Int32 nEndPosition,

Microsoft.DirectX.DirectSound.EffectsEcho fx

);


 

[C++]

public: enumErrorCodes DirectXApply (

Int32 nStartPosition,

Int32 nEndPosition,

Microsoft::DirectX::DirectSound::EffectsEcho fx

);


 

 

Parameter

Description

 

 

nStartPosition

Start position, expressed in milliseconds, of the affected sound range.

nEndPosition

End position, expressed in milliseconds, of the affected sound range.. If set to -1 the end position will be set to the end of the sound.

fx

Effect structure containing parameters to apply.

Property

Meaning

 

 

Feedback

Can range from EchoEffect.FeedbackMin to EchoEffect.FeedbackMax.

The default value is 50.

LeftDelay

Retrieves and sets the delay for left channel, in milliseconds.

Can range from EchoEffect.LefttDelayMin to EchoEffect.LeftDelayMax.

The default value is 500 ms.

PanDelay

Retrieves and sets the value that specifies whether to swap left and right delays with each successive echo.

Can range from EchoEffect.PanDelayMin to EchoEffect.PanDelayMax.

The default value is zero, meaning no swap.

RightDelay

Retrieves and sets the delay for right channel, in milliseconds.

Can range from EchoEffect.RightDelayMin to EchoEffect.RightDelayMax.

The default value is 500 ms.

WetDryMix

Retrieves and sets the ratio of wet (processed) signal to dry (unprocessed) signal.

Can range from EchoEffect.WetDryMixMin to EchoEffect.WetDryMixMax.
