How can I...

Get the number of input channels

word GetNrChannels( word *wNrChannels )

Description:

This routine returns the number of input channels of the instru-

ment.

Input:

Output:

wNrChannels

the number of channels

Return value

E_NO_ERRORS

E_NO_HARDWARE

Get the maximum sampling frequency

double GetMaxSampleFrequencyF( void )

Description:

The different instruments have different maximum sampling fre-

quencies. This routine queries the maximum sampling frequency.

Input:

Output:

Return value

The maximum sampling frequency the instru-

ment supports, in Hz.

Note

The above function replaces the existing, old and deprecated function

GetMaxSampleFrequency.

Get the maximum record length

dword GetMaxRecordLength( void )

Description:

The different instruments have different record lengths. This rou-

tine queries the maximum available record length per channel, in

samples.

Input:

Output:

Return value

The maximum record length the instrument

supports, in number of samples.
