You'll see a download for AudioUnitSDK-1 - that's it....
What's in it?
It has a set of base classes for writing audio units. These classes
implement the default behaviours, component wrapping, etc that you
can use to develop your own Audio Units. We will be actively
maintaining and updating this code base - it is the same set of
classes that we are using internally to develop our own audio
units. It is very much a work in progress and we would certainly be
interested in comments, feedback, bug fixes, etc...
There is a sample effect unit in this project as well.
The aim of course is to do as much of the wrapping and basic API
support as possible, to leave you free to concentrate on
integrating your code into this framework with a minimum of fuss
and bother.
Some future directions:
We will be developing a command line tool that can be used to
validate that an AudioUnit implements the standard properties and
conforms to the expected behaviour, as well as other API calls that
a unit must support. This is a little way out, but we feel it is
important to validate the way that an audio unit works correctly
and complies to some known set of assumptions - this is certainly a
big part of the motivation for this SDK.
We are looking into providing a base class for MusicDevice units
that will be able to manage much of the state that is associated
with one of these kinds of units (ie. a unit that conforms to BOTH
the MIDI protocol and the extended "control" protocols found in
MusicN and SASL)...
