Selecting Audio Devices

[Raph]

Hi,

Sorry for the noob-ish question, but it's not clear to me from the API examples how you can select and set the audio device(s) you want to use. I'm following the PassThroughAudioClient and DeviceIteration examples. It's easy to query the available devices like in the example, but how do I set the input/output devices based on that list?

Thanks.

No problem, and sorry for how badly documented that feature is! You need to add the device(s) where you see the ClientID and Connection parameters (extensions comment) in the AudioConfiguration constructor.

Note there might be two devices if you need input - Windows has a separate device for input and output for some bizarre reason. 

Best wishes, 

Neil

Hi Neil,

Awesome! I was adapting the PassThroughAudioClient example to query and set alternative devices. As you said, I simply had to pass in the output and input devices to the AudioConfiguration constructor extensions parameter, and it works like a charm! Thanks!
