SOFTLoopback (LWJGL 3.2.4 SNAPSHOT

java.lang.Object
- org.lwjgl.openal.SOFTLoopback

```
public class SOFTLoopback
extends java.lang.Object
```
Native bindings to the SOFT_loopback extension.
This extension allows an application to read back OpenAL's rendered audio instead of having it output to an audio device on the system. Unextended OpenAL will output audio to an audio device, with no mechanism to allow an application to divert the audio somewhere else.

  - alcLoopbackOpenDeviceSOFT
```
public static long alcLoopbackOpenDeviceSOFT(@Nullable

```
    Loopback devices provide a way for applications to "read back" rendered audio without it being sent to an actual audio device. It allows applications to render audio as fast or slow as it needs, making it suitable for non-real-time rendering, and so it can be passed to an audio codec or something for further processing.
    To open a loopback device, use this function.
    
    A loopback device behaves largely the same as a playback device. You may query playback state and error codes, and create contexts, which can then be set as current to generate sources and buffers like normal.
    
    Note that loopback devices do not have either the SYNC or REFRESH attributes. Attempting to query them will result in an INVALID_ENUM error.
    
    Parameters:
    
    deviceName - which device or device driver to use for subsequent rendering. This may be NULL for an implementation-defined default, otherwise it must be a valid name returned by enumeration (and further must be a device capable of loopback rendering).

public static boolean alcIsRenderFormatSupportedSOFT(long device,
                                                     int frequency,

    When creating contexts, the attribute list must specify the format used for rendering. This is done with the FORMAT_CHANNELS_SOFT, FORMAT_TYPE_SOFT, and FREQUENCY attributes. This controls the format of the audio subsequently rendered by the device.
    To check if a particular rendering format is available, use this function.
    
    Parameters:
    
    device - the loopback device to query
    
    frequency - the sample rate of the rendered audio
    
    channels - the channel configuration used for rendering. One of:
    MONO_SOFT STEREO_SOFT QUAD_SOFT 5POINT1_SOFT 6POINT1_SOFT 7POINT1_SOFT
    
    type - sample type of the written audio. One of:
    BYTE_SOFT UNSIGNED_BYTE_SOFT SHORT_SOFT UNSIGNED_SHORT_SOFT INT_SOFT UNSIGNED_INT_SOFT
