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

Constructor. After constructing a MidiOut device, you must open it (using openDev() ). Additionally you may want to initialize it (with initDev() ),

~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.

void openDev (int sqfd) | ### openDev

[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.

void closeDev () | ### closeDev

[virtual]

Closes the device. It basically tells the device (the file descriptor) is going to be closed.

See also: openDev

Reimplemented from MidiOut.

void initDev () | ### 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.

int deviceType () | ### deviceType

[const]

- 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

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 :

See also: deviceName

Reimplemented from MidiOut.

const char * deviceName (void) | ### deviceName

[const virtual]

Returns the name and type of this MIDI device.

See also: deviceType

Reimplemented from MidiOut.

int rate (void) | ### rate

void noteOn ( uchar chn, uchar note, uchar vel ) | ### noteOn

[virtual]

See DeviceManager::noteOn()

Reimplemented from MidiOut.

void noteOff ( uchar chn, uchar note, uchar vel ) | ### noteOff

[virtual]

See DeviceManager::noteOff()

Reimplemented from MidiOut.

void keyPressure ( uchar chn, uchar note, uchar vel ) | ### keyPressure

[virtual]

See DeviceManager::keyPressure()

Reimplemented from MidiOut.

void chnPatchChange ( uchar chn, uchar patch ) | ### chnPatchChange

[virtual]

See DeviceManager::chnPatchChange()

Reimplemented from MidiOut.

void chnPressure ( uchar chn, uchar vel ) | ### chnPressure

[virtual]

See DeviceManager::chnPressure()

Reimplemented from MidiOut.

void chnPitchBender ( uchar chn, uchar lsb, uchar msb ) | ### chnPitchBender

[virtual]

See DeviceManager::chnPitchBender()

Reimplemented from MidiOut.

void chnController ( uchar chn, uchar ctl , uchar v ) | ### chnController

[virtual]

See DeviceManager::chnController()

Reimplemented from MidiOut.

void sysex ( uchar *data,ulong size) | ### sysex

[virtual]

See DeviceManager::sysex()

Reimplemented from MidiOut.

void channelSilence ( uchar chn ) | ### channelSilence

[virtual]

Mutes all notes being played on a given channel.

Reimplemented from MidiOut.

void channelMute ( uchar chn, int a ) | ### channelMute

[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.

void setVolumePercentage ( int volper ) | ### setVolumePercentage

[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.

int ok (void) | ### ok

Returns true if everything's ok and false if there has been any problem

Reimplemented from MidiOut.

void wait (double ticks) | ### wait

[virtual]

void tmrSetTempo (int v) | ### tmrSetTempo

[virtual]

void tmrStart (int tpcn) | ### tmrStart

[virtual]

void tmrStart () | ### tmrStart

[virtual]

void tmrStop () | ### tmrStop

[virtual]

void tmrContinue () | ### tmrContinue

[virtual]

void sync (int i=0) | ### sync

[virtual]

If i==1 syncronizes by cleaning the buffer instead of sending it (in fact, this is what syncronizing really means :-) )
