OpenAudio Library for Teensy
===========================
============================
This is a library of Teensy Arduino classes to provide audio signal processing with 32-bit floating point data transfers.
This parallels the 16-bit integer [Teensy Audio Library](http://www.pjrc.com/teensy/td_libs_Audio.html) but, interconnects blocks using 32-bit floating point data types. Converters for inter-connecting the two types are provided. Both data types can be used in the same sketch. To distinguish the two types, file and class names for this library have a trailing "_F32."
*** Special Note *** 6 January 2021- This library is undergoing revision to make Teensy 4.x compatible and to add functionality. The Tympan Library
files and associated classes output_i2s_f32.h, output_i2s_f32.cpp, input_i2s_f32.h, input_i2s_f32.cpp are now
ready to be used for T3.x and T4.x. There are some restrictions, particularly this should be used with 16-bit I2S codec data. Codec sample rates can be varied. Variable block size is supported, but be sure the settings option is used. More on this to come. Work on the F32 i/o routines is continuing. Thanks to Chip and @jcj83429 .
This library was originally put together by Chip Audette and he summed up the reasons for this:
**Purpose**: The purpose of this library is to build upon the [Teensy Audio Library](http://www.pjrc.com/teensy/td_libs_Audio.html) to enable new functionality for real-time audio processing.
**Approach**: I am attempting to follow the structure and approach of the Teensy Audio Library so that coding techniques, style, and structure that works for the Teensy Audio Library will also work with my library. synth_sine_f32
**Approach**: To follow the structure and approach of the Teensy Audio Library, so that coding techniques, style, and structure that works for the Teensy Audio Library will also work with this library.
**Send Help!**: While I'm hoping to follow the pattern of the Teensy Audio Library, I am not a well trained programmer, so I have difficulty chosing the right path. If you see ways to make my code better aligned with the Teensy Audio Library, send a pull request!

Information

**Design Tool** Many changes and additions were made in the 2020 time period. Hopefully this has brought this library to the point where blocks can be just assembled and run. To make that practical, there is now an [OpenAudio Library Design Tool](http://www.janbob.com/electron/OpenAudio_Design_Tool/index.html) that again parallels the Teensy Audio Design Tool, that has been borrowed upon for both code and content. This OpenAudio Design Tool is intended to be a temporary design aid with improvements to come, like being able to combine integer and floating point blocks.
As I said, the goal of this library is to extend the functionality of the Teensy Audio Library. My extensions are focused in these areas:
The primary documentation is the Design Tool. Clicking on any of the classes brings up a right-side help panel. This lists the use of the class, the constraints, all the functions and at the botom are general notes. Most classes have example INO files and these are listed and available when this library is installed. Sometimes elements of this documentation is not completed, yet. In some of those cases it is worth looking at the .h include file for the class. At the top of these files are comments with more information.
**Floating Point Audio Processing**: The Teensy Audio Library processes the audio data as fixed-point Int16 values. While very fast for the Teensy 3.0-3.2, it is unnecessarily constraining (IMO) for the Teensy 3.5 and 3.6, which both have floating-point units. To enable floating-point audio processing, I have created:
* **AudioStream_F32: Following the model of Teensy's `AudioStream` class. In addition to the new `AudioStream_F32`, this file includes a new `audio_block_f32_t` in place of `audio_block_t`, as well as a new `AudioConnection_F32` in place of `AudioConnection`.
* **New F32 Audio Processing Blocks**: Using this new floating-point capability, I've written some new audio processing blocks that operate using floating-point audio values instead of fixed-point values. Examples include `AudioEffectGain_F32` and `AudioEffectComperessor_F32`.
* **F32 Versions of Existing Blocks**: To maintain continuity with the Teensy Audio Library, a number of the Audio Library's Audio blocks (which process as Int16 data) to operate on floating-point (ie, Float32) data. Thanks to other people's contributions, examples include `AudioMixer4_F32` and `AudioMultiply_F32`. Feel free to convert more blocks, if you'd like!
* **New Hardware Controls**: The Teensy Audio Library does a great job of wrapping up the complicated control of hardware elements (such as the SGTL5000 audio codec) into a nice easy-to-use classes. But, sometimes, certain features of the hardware were not exposed in those classes. Here, I've extended the default classes to expose the extra features that I want. See `AudioControlSGTL5000_Extended` as an example.
**Teensy 3 and 4** During 2020 this library has undergone revision to make Teensy 4.x compatible. Much of this related to using multiple sampling rates with the I2S clocks and the interrupt/DMA code for data transfer. The files and associated classes output_i2s_f32.h, output_i2s_f32.cpp, input_i2s_f32.h, input_i2s_f32.cpp are now
ready to be used for T3.x and T4.x. There are some restrictions, particularly this should be used with 16-bit I2S codec data. Codec sample rates can be varied. Variable block size is supported, but be sure the settings option is used. Thanks to Chip, @jcj83429 and all the Teensy development work.
After installing this library into your Arduino->Libraries direction, you can have access to any of these capabilities simply by including the following command in your Arduino sketch: `#include <OpenAudio_ArduinoLibrary.h>`.
**Tympan Project** Many of the classes in this library were put together as part of the [Tympan Project.](https://github.com/Tympan) That is oriented towards open-source hearing aid and hearing aid development tools. It has its own [Tympan Design Tool](https://tympan.github.io/Tympan_Audio_Design_Tool/) as well as some custom Teensy-based hardware. Additionally, there are a few classes in this library that use terminology and variables that are specific to audiology. It is intended that these, in time, be replaced by similar classes with more conventional descriptors. And, of course, if your interest is in hearing aids, you should spend time at the Tympan project!
Installation

Restart your Arduino IDE and you should now see this libraries example sketches under File->Examples->OpenAudio_ArduinoLibrary
After installing this library into your Arduino->Libraries direction, you can have access to any of these capabilities simply by including the following command in your Arduino sketch: `#include <OpenAudio_ArduinoLibrary.h>`.
As an alternative to the ZIP download, you can use git to maintain a local copy of the library. This has the advantage of easy updating. See GitHub and git documentation on how to do this.
Dependencies
------------
This library extends the functionality of the [Teensy Audio Library](http://www.pjrc.com/teensy/td_libs_Audio.html), so you'll need to install it per its instructions.
The floating-point processing takes advantage of the DSP acceleration afforded by the ARM M4F core inside the Teensy 3.5/3.6 processor. Therefore, it uses `arm_math.h`. This dependencies is installed automatically when you install the Teensy Audio Library, so you don't need to take any extra steps. It's there already.
Status
------
The following table summarizes the status, as of 24 November 2020. I will try to keep this up-to-date as work continues, but tere will be lags.
Thus there may be more T4.x compatibility than shown here. A blank entry for status does not indicate a problem, but rather a lack
of verification. Further examples will come to test some of these objects.
![Open Audio F32 Status](OA_LibraryStatus.gif)
