RecursiveAI.OneAudio 0.1.0-alpha.5

RecursiveAI.OneAudio

Audio decode, encode, resample, mix and analyse for .NET 10, written from the published specifications with no dependencies beyond the base class library. It is built first for game audio: the mixer's render callback allocates nothing and takes no locks. NativeAOT- and trim-clean (nothing uses reflection; formats are registered explicitly, so unused codecs trim away).

Formats

Every decoder streams (Read into a span you provide, nothing allocated per call) and seeks to the exact frame. Malformed input raises a typed OneAudioException; sizes read from a file are checked against AudioLimits before anything is allocated.

Decode

using OneAudio;

var registry = new AudioCodecRegistry().AddOgg().AddVorbis().AddOpus().AddFlac().AddMp3().AddWav();
using var decoder = AudioDecoder.OpenFile("music.ogg", registry);   // the container is detected from the bytes

var buffer = new float[4096 * decoder.Format.Channels];             // interleaved float in [-1, 1]
int frames;
while ((frames = decoder.Read(buffer)) > 0)
{
    // use buffer[..(frames * decoder.Format.Channels)]
}
decoder.Seek(decoder.Format.SampleRate * 30);                       // frame 30 s in

Mix

var clip = AudioClip.FromDecoder(AudioDecoder.OpenFile("hit.wav", registry));   // short effect: decode once, play many times

var mixer = new AudioMixer(new MixerOptions { SampleRate = 48000, Channels = 2 });
var voice = mixer.Play(new PlayParams(clip) { Gain = 0.8f, Pan = -0.3f });

// On the audio device thread (no allocation, no locks):
mixer.Render(deviceBuffer);                                          // interleaved float; frames = length / channels
// On any other thread:
mixer.Stop(voice, fadeOutFrames: 480);

Voices, buses with sub-mixes, ducking, gain, pan, pitch, loops, crossfades, sample-accurate start, a voice cap with priorities, low-pass/high-pass filters, a reverb and a limiter, and streaming sources for music are included. Control calls reach the render thread through a preallocated lock-free queue.

Encode

using var input = AudioDecoder.OpenFile("take.wav", registry);
using var output = File.Create("take.flac");
FlacEncoder.Encode(input, output, new FlacEncoderSettings { CompressionLevel = 5 });   // decodes back bit-exact

WavEncoder works the same way. OpusFileWriter writes an Ogg Opus file from float PCM and resamples input that is not 48 kHz.

Loudness

using var decoder = AudioDecoder.OpenFile("mix.flac", registry);
LoudnessResult r = LoudnessAnalyzer.Measure(decoder);                // ITU-R BS.1770-5 / EBU R 128
Console.WriteLine($"{r.IntegratedLufs:F1} LUFS, true peak {r.TruePeakDbtp:F1} dBTP");
float gain = (float)r.GainFor(targetLufs: -23).Linear;               // cut back if the true peak would pass -1 dBTP

LoudnessMeter gives momentary, short-term and integrated loudness, loudness range and true peak on a live stream without allocating.

Resample

AudioResampler.Create(inRate, outRate, channels, quality) returns a polyphase (144 or 44 taps) or linear resampler for interleaved float; output does not depend on how the input is split into blocks.
