waveOutGetPitch
The waveOutGetPitch
function retrieves the current pitch setting for the specified waveform-audio
output device.
MMRESULT waveOutGetPitch(
HWAVEOUT hwo, |
|
LPDWORD pdwPitch |
|
); |
|
Parameters
hwo
Handle of the
waveform-audio output device.
pdwPitch
Address of a
variable to be filled with the current pitch multiplier setting. The pitch
multiplier indicates the current change in pitch from the original authored
setting. The pitch multiplier must be a positive value.
The pitch
multiplier is specified as a fixed-point value. The high-order word of the variable
contains the signed integer part of the number, and the low-order word contains
the fractional part. A value of 0x8000 in the low-order word represents
one-half, and 0x4000 represents one-quarter. For example, the value 0x00010000
specifies a multiplier of 1.0 (no pitch change), and a value of 0x000F8000
specifies a multiplier of 15.5.
Return Values
Returns
MMSYSERR_NOERROR if successful or an error otherwise. Possible error values
include the following:
MMSYSERR_INVALHANDLE |
Specified
device handle is invalid. |
MMSYSERR_NODRIVER |
No device
driver is present. |
MMSYSERR_NOMEM |
Unable to
allocate or lock memory. |
MMSYSERR_NOTSUPPORTED |
Function
isn t supported. |
Remarks
Changing the
pitch does not change the playback rate, sample rate, or playback time. Not all
devices support pitch changes. To determine whether the device supports pitch
control, use the WAVECAPS_PITCH flag to test the dwSupport member of the
WAVEOUTCAPS structure (filled by the waveOutGetDevCaps function).
