Displaying the input and output channels associated with each device

Windows

Hi,

I can display the names of the device types associated with a given platform, and the names of the input and output devices associated with each device type, but I don't know how to display the names of the input and output channels associated with each device.

Can you help?

Thanks.

You need to open the devices and ask them for their channel list.

I didn't need to open the device. I just created it (which I wasn't doing before) and called the appropriate functions, i.e.

AudioIODevice* audioDevice = audioDeviceType->createDevice(outputDeviceName, inputDeviceName);
StringArray inputChannelNames = audioDevice->getInputChannelNames();
StringArray outputChannelNames = audioDevice->getOutputChannelNames();

Would you please clarify your remarks because open() takes as input a representation of the input and output channels that you wish to enable.

virtual String open (const BigInteger& inputChannels, const BigInteger& outputChannels, double sampleRate, int bufferSizeSamples) = 0;

Thanks.

Yeah, sorry - I just meant create, not open.
