Features
The {{mono|sndiod}} audio and MIDI server is the main component of sndio. It aims to fill the gap between programs requirements and the bare hardware as exposed by operating system device drivers.WEB,weblink The Design of Audio Servers and Toolkits for Supporting Speech in the User Interface, Barry, Arons, March 1991, Journal of the American Voice I/O Society, September 16, 2012, This includes:WEB,weblink OpenBSD manual pages, man.openbsd.org, May 14, 2016,- perform re-sampling and format conversions; for instance to allow a program that requires 44.1 kHz sample frequency to use a device that supports 48 kHz only.
- mix and route the sound of multiple programs; this allows multiple programs to use the audio device concurrently.
- split an audio device into sub-devices, for instance allowing one program to use the front speakers and another program to use the rear speakers as they were independent simple stereo devices.
- allow one program to record what other programs play.
- control the volume.
- route audio and MIDI data through the network; this allows programs running on one computer to use the sound card of another computer.
- route MIDI data between programs, allowing one program to send MIDI data to another program as it was a hardware MIDI port. For instance for a MIDI sequencer to control a soft synthesizer.
- start, stop and relocate synchronously a group of audio programs allowing multiple small programs to work together. This can be controlled through standard MIDI Machine Control (MMC) protocol, for instance from within a MIDI sequencer.
- expose the sound card clock as MIDI timecode (MTC), allowing MIDI programs (e.g. sequencers) or MIDI hardware to be synchronized to audio streams.
