Class SOFTBformatEx


  • public final class SOFTBformatEx
    extends java.lang.Object
    Native bindings to the AL_SOFT_bformat_ex extension.

    This extension allows B-Format buffers to be interpreted according to the ACN (Ambisonic Channel Number), SN3D (Semi-Normalized), and N3D (fully Normalized) standards. The AL_EXT_BFORMAT extension provides support for B-Format buffers using the FuMa standard for channel ordering and scaling, however much of the ambisonic content being produced today is using a more formalized ACN ordering and SN3D scaling, some even using N3D scaling. The option to interpret B-Format buffers using these standards makes them easier to use since an application won't need to manually convert them before loading.
