A FloatControl
object provides control over a range of floating-point values. Float controls are often represented in graphical user interfaces by continuously adjustable objects such as sliders or rotary knobs. Concrete subclasses of FloatControl
implement controls, such as gain and pan, that affect a line's audio signal in some way that an application can manipulate. The Type
inner class provides static instances of types that are used to identify some common kinds of float control. The FloatControl
abstract class provides methods to set and get the control's current floating-point value. Other methods obtain the possible range of values and the control's resolution (the smallest increment between returned values). Some float controls allow ramping to a new value over a specified period of time. FloatControl
also includes methods that return string labels for the minimum, maximum, and midpoint positions of the control.

public static class Type extends Control.Type {
Represents a control for the overall gain on a line.
Gain is a quantity in decibels (dB) that is added to the intrinsic
decibel level of the audio signal--that is, the level of the signal
before it is altered by the gain control. A positive gain amplifies
(boosts) the signal's volume, and a negative gain attenuates(cuts)it.
The gain setting defaults to a value of 0.0 dB, meaning the signal's
loudness is unaffected. Note that gain measures dB, not amplitude.
The relationship between a gain in decibels and the corresponding
linear amplitude multiplier is:
linearScalar = pow(10.0, gainDB/20.0)
The FloatControl
class has methods to impose a maximum and minimum allowable value for gain. However, because an audio signal might already be at a high amplitude, the maximum setting does not guarantee that the signal will be undistorted when the gain is applied to it (unless the maximum is zero or negative). To avoid numeric overflow from excessively large gain settings, a gain control can implement clipping, meaning that the signal's amplitude will be limited to the maximum value representable by its audio format, instead of wrapping around.
These comments apply to gain controls in general, not just master
gain controls. A line can have more than one gain control. For
example, a mixer (which is itself a line) might have a master gain
control, an auxiliary return control, a reverb return control, and,
on each of its source lines, an individual aux send and reverb send.

Represents a control that changes the sample rate of audio playback. The net effect of changing the sample rate depends on the relationship between the media's natural rate and the rate that is set via this control.

Changing the sample rate with this control does not affect the data
line's audio format. Also note that whenever you change a sound's
sample rate, a change in the sound's pitch results. For example,
doubling the sample rate has the effect of doubling the frequencies
in the sound's spectrum, which raises the pitch by an octave.
