Unfortunately, documentation always seems to take the back-burner to
new development, this is especially true for new/emerging
technologies. This not only applies to Apple, but for many software
houses and individual developers, including myself. After over a
decade of software development I just recently got in the habit of
commenting my code! ;-) None the less, as CoreAudio/AudioUnits are
now moving into the mainstream development, I'm sure Apple will pull
thru with something to get the ball rolling a little faster.
...now that i'm done ranting, to your question. This list is a good
place to ask questions. There are alot of smart people here. Also
browse the related header files. Most APIs are commented with a
sprinkling of real documentation and sample code thru-out. There is
also a TechNote describing the use of the 3DMixer @ http://
developer.apple.com/technotes/tn2004/tn2112.html.
P.S. To Apple techpubs. The Java documentation Bob pointed out is
really nice. *hint* *hint*

The AUPannerUnits.txt file in the SDK is very helpful.
Is there anything like this for the mixer units floating around?
I'm needing to mix an arbitrary number of inputs, and would like
to know more about what the stereo and matrix units can do for
me. I'm not even sure how many simultaneous inputs they support.
Hoping to find some insight into the black boxes.
I find it amazing the Apple are trying encourage developers to use
Core Audio and AUs, whilst providing the minimum of documentation.
Often, it seems that all that's available are a few tech notes and
some program examples. These are useful, but no substitute for
real information.
I'm normally a Java programmer and there's a H-U-G-E amount written
on Java Sound. If I need to know anything, the answers will
normally be on one these three sites:
- http://www.jsresources.org/
- http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/sound/programmer_guide/
contents.html
- http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/
All three are worth a quick look just to show the level of support
that Apple could be providing!
