Definition

AudioEffect is the base class for controlling audio effects provided by the android audio framework.

Remarks

AudioEffect is the base class for controlling audio effects provided by the android audio framework.

Applications should not use the AudioEffect class directly but one of its derived classes to control specific effects: <ul> <li> android.media.audiofx.Equalizer</li> <li> android.media.audiofx.Virtualizer</li> <li> android.media.audiofx.BassBoost</li> <li> android.media.audiofx.PresetReverb</li> <li> android.media.audiofx.EnvironmentalReverb</li> <li> android.media.audiofx.DynamicsProcessing</li> <li> android.media.audiofx.HapticGenerator</li> </ul>

To apply the audio effect to a specific AudioTrack or MediaPlayer instance, the application must specify the audio session ID of that instance when creating the AudioEffect. (see android.media.MediaPlayer#getAudioSessionId() for details on audio sessions).

NOTE: attaching insert effects (equalizer, bass boost, virtualizer) to the global audio output mix by use of session 0 is deprecated.

Creating an AudioEffect object will create the corresponding effect engine in the audio framework if no instance of the same effect type exists in the specified audio session. If one exists, this instance will be used.

The application creating the AudioEffect object (or a derived class) will either receive control of the effect engine or not depending on the priority parameter. If priority is higher than the priority used by the current effect engine owner, the control will be transfered to the new object. Otherwise control will remain with the previous object. In this case, the new application will be notified of changes in effect engine state or control ownership by the appropriate listener.
