The [code]fill_buffer[/code] function provides audio data for approximating a sine wave. See also [AudioEffectSpectrumAnalyzer] for performing real-time audio spectrum analysis. [b]Note:[/b] Due to performance constraints, this class is best used from C# or from a compiled language via GDExtension. If you still want to use this class from GDScript, consider using a lower [member mix_rate] such as 11,025 Hz or 22,050 Hz. </description> <tutorials> <link title="Audio Generator Demo">https://godotengine.org/asset-library/asset/526</link> - <link title="Godot 3.2 will get new audio features">https://godotengine.org/article/godot-32-will-get-new-audio-features</link> </tutorials> <members> <member name="buffer_length" type="float" setter="set_buffer_length" getter="get_buffer_length" default="0.5"> |
