## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

AlsaOut::AlsaOut | ( | int | d,
|  | int | client = 64,
|  | int | port = 0,
|  | const char * | cname = "",
|  | const char * | pname = ""
| ) |

| Constructor. After constructing a MidiOut device, you must open it (using openDev() ). Additionally you may want to initialize it (with initDev() ), Definition at line 111 of file alsaout.cc.

AlsaOut::~AlsaOut | ( |  | ) | `[virtual]`

| Destructor. It doesn't matter if you close the device (closeDev() ) before you destruct the object because in other case, it will be closed here. Definition at line 126 of file alsaout.cc. References closeDev().

## Member Function Documentation

void AlsaOut::openDev | ( | int | sqfd | ) | `[virtual]`

  | Opens the device. This is generally called from DeviceManager , so you shouldn't call this yourself (except if you created the MidiOut object yourself. Parameters:
  sqfd | a file descriptor of /dev/sequencer
See also: closeDev initDev Reimplemented from MidiOut. Definition at line 132 of file alsaout.cc.

void AlsaOut::closeDev | ( |  | ) | `[virtual]`

| Closes the device. It basically tells the device (the file descriptor) is going to be closed. See also: openDev Reimplemented from MidiOut. Definition at line 181 of file alsaout.cc. References ok(). Referenced by ~AlsaOut().

void AlsaOut::initDev | ( |  | ) | `[virtual]`

| Initializes the device sending generic standard midi events and controllers, such as changing the patches of each channel to an Acoustic Piano (000), setting the volume to a normal value, etc. Reimplemented from MidiOut. Definition at line 204 of file alsaout.cc. References chnController(), chnPatchChange(), chnPitchBender(), chnPressure(), ok(), and sysex().

int AlsaOut::deviceType | ( |  | ) | const`[inline]`

| Returns: the device type of the object. This is to identify the inherited class that a given object is polymorphed to. The returned value is one of these : KMID_EXTERNAL_MIDI if it's a MidiOut object KMID_SYNTH if it's a SynthOut object (as an AWE device) KMID_FM if it's a FMOut object KMID_GUS if it's a GUSOut object which are defined in midispec.h See also: deviceName Reimplemented from MidiOut. Definition at line 129 of file alsaout.h.

const char * AlsaOut::deviceName | ( | void |  | ) | const`[virtual]`

| Returns the name and type of this MIDI device. See also: deviceType Reimplemented from MidiOut. Definition at line 561 of file alsaout.cc.

void AlsaOut::noteOn | ( | uchar | chn,
|  | uchar | note,
|  | uchar | vel
| ) | `[virtual]`

| See DeviceManager::noteOn(). Reimplemented from MidiOut. Definition at line 291 of file alsaout.cc. References MidiMapper::channel(), MidiMapper::key(), and noteOff().

void AlsaOut::noteOff | ( | uchar | chn,
|  | uchar | note,
|  | uchar | vel
| ) | `[virtual]`

| See DeviceManager::noteOff(). Reimplemented from MidiOut. Definition at line 313 of file alsaout.cc. References MidiMapper::channel(), and MidiMapper::key(). Referenced by channelSilence(), and noteOn().

void AlsaOut::keyPressure | ( | uchar | chn,
|  | uchar | note,
|  | uchar | vel
| ) | `[virtual]`

| See DeviceManager::keyPressure(). Reimplemented from MidiOut. Definition at line 328 of file alsaout.cc. References MidiMapper::channel(), and MidiMapper::key().

|  | uchar | patch
| ) | `[virtual]`

| See DeviceManager::chnPatchChange(). Reimplemented from MidiOut. Definition at line 340 of file alsaout.cc. References MidiMapper::channel(), and MidiMapper::patch(). Referenced by initDev().

void AlsaOut::chnPressure | ( | uchar | chn,
|  | uchar | vel
| ) | `[virtual]`

| See DeviceManager::chnPressure(). Reimplemented from MidiOut. Definition at line 357 of file alsaout.cc. References MidiMapper::channel(). Referenced by initDev().

|  | uchar | lsb,
|  | uchar | msb

| See DeviceManager::chnPitchBender(). Reimplemented from MidiOut. Definition at line 371 of file alsaout.cc. References MidiMapper::channel(), and MidiMapper::pitchBender(). Referenced by initDev().

void AlsaOut::chnController | ( | uchar | chn,
|  | uchar | ctl,
|  | uchar | v
| ) | `[virtual]`

| See DeviceManager::chnController(). Reimplemented from MidiOut. Definition at line 387 of file alsaout.cc. References MidiMapper::channel(), and MidiMapper::controller(). Referenced by initDev().

void AlsaOut::sysex | ( | uchar * | data,
|  | ulong | size
| ) | `[virtual]`

| See DeviceManager::sysex(). Reimplemented from MidiOut. Definition at line 408 of file alsaout.cc. Referenced by initDev().

void AlsaOut::channelSilence | ( | uchar | chn | ) | `[virtual]`

| Mutes all notes being played on a given channel. Reimplemented from MidiOut. Definition at line 424 of file alsaout.cc. References noteOff(). Referenced by channelMute().

void AlsaOut::channelMute | ( | uchar | chn,
|  | int | a
| ) | `[virtual]`

  | Mute or "unmute" a given channel . Parameters:
  chn | channel to work on
  b | if true, the device will ignore subsequent notes played on the chn channel, and mute all notes being played on it. If b is false, the channel is back to work.
Reimplemented from MidiOut. Definition at line 438 of file alsaout.cc. References channelSilence().

virtual void AlsaOut::setVolumePercentage | ( | int | volper | ) | `[inline, virtual]`

  | Change all channel volume events multiplying it by this percentage correction Instead of forcing a channel to a fixed volume, this method allows to music to fade out even when it was being played softly. Parameters:
  volper | is an integer value, where 0 is quiet, 100 is used to send an unmodified value, 200 play music twice louder than it should, etc.
Reimplemented from MidiOut. Definition at line 203 of file alsaout.h.

int AlsaOut::ok | ( | void |  | ) | `[inline]`

| Returns true if everything's ok and false if there has been any problem. Reimplemented from MidiOut. Definition at line 209 of file alsaout.h. Referenced by closeDev(), and initDev().

void AlsaOut::sync | ( | int | i = 0 | ) |

| Sends the buffer to the device and returns when it's played, so you can synchronize XXX: sync should be virtual after next bic release. Reimplemented from MidiOut. Definition at line 497 of file alsaout.cc.
