Hi,
I've read that fmod is used by Dark basic, if this is true
how do you access fmods internal sound functions? or would it be better to load it as a DLL and call the internal functions for
FMOD.

Wow! Superb

So it's best to load it as a DLL and to boot your using the latest release great, nice one !!!

I'm fairly new to DB pro just got it to be truthful, I normally play with Delphi 7 and Fmod, mainly it's FFT stuff so will need to look at callback routines. You had any success retrieving the
sound data for FFT and Oscilloscopes and stuff?

Thanks for the example code, appreciate it!

Translating is not exactly difficult. Just look at the include file for VisualBasic

As for callbacks, I'm sure theres a way to hack it in DarkBasic.

Dreg934,

So your using the VB inc file to find the function names. Hmmmm, could do with writing a small prog to pick out all function names into Fmusic and Fsound commands.

The main problem is finding the function address for the callback routine so it can be passed to Fmod anyways,now I know it can be used fairly easily will play about trying to sort it out.

Thanks again

Leo

VB Include may say something like this:


Which could be translted into DB like this:


Pretty straight foward

There is a Bass.dll demo somewhere that has spectrum bars etc, maybe that would give some additional clues. I could'nt tell you where it's hiding, possibly codebase - but if you'd like a copy just drop me an email.
