Generate a WAV file playing a tone with a simple envelope and save it to the specified location. This is provided as a utility to generate test WAV files.

Arguments

Name Type Description
path * string File path to write the generated WAV file. This path normally uses the file extension WAV.
bitDepth string Bit depth of the audio file. Default is int16. Possible values:
  • int16
  • float32
sampleRate number Sample rate of the audio file. Default is 48000 Range: [300,192000]
channelConfig string Channel configuration of the audio file. Default is 1.0. Please use the silence waveform for the ambisonics configurations, as the other tone signals will be incompatible with the format. Possible values:
  • 0.1
  • 1.0
  • 2.0
  • 2.1
  • 3.0
  • 4.0
  • 5.1
  • 7.1
  • 5.1.2
  • 7.1.2
  • 7.1.4
  • Ambisonics 1st order
  • Ambisonics 2nd order
  • Ambisonics 3rd order
  • Ambisonics 4th order
  • Ambisonics 5th order
setAnonymous boolean Sets the channel configuration type to anonymous, this overrides the channel config but keeps the number of channels specified.
sustainTime number Number of seconds of the signal holds at the specified level. Default is 1 second. Range: [0,*]
sustainLevel number Decibel attenuation for the sustained signal. Default is 0 dB. Range: [-100,0]
attackTime number Number of seconds for the signal to reach sustain level. Default is 0 second. Range: [0,*]
releaseTime number Number of seconds for the signal to release from sustain level. Default is 0 second. Range: [0,*]
waveform string Waveform type. Default is silence. Possible values:
  • silence
  • sine
  • triangle
  • square
  • whiteNoise
waveformChannelMask integer Specifies which channels receive waveform data. The channel mask is a bit field where each bit represents a channel. The least significant bit represents the channel at index zero. The bits with 0 are silent. When not specified, the default outputs waveform data on all channels.
frequency number Waveform frequency. Default is 440. Range: [1,22000]
