Get Sound Info (Macintosh, Windows)

Returns the information associated with a sound operation associated with the task ID.

task ID in is the sound operation from the configured device you want to manipulate or input. You generate task ID in with either the SI Config VI or the SO Config VI.
error in describes error conditions that occur before this VI or function runs. The default is no error. If an error occurred before this VI or function runs, the VI or function passes the error in value to error out. This VI or function runs normally only if no error occurs before this VI or function runs. If an error occurs while this VI or function runs, it runs normally and sets its own error status in error out. Use the Simple Error Handler or General Error Handler VIs to display the description of the error code. Use error in and error out to check errors and to specify execution order by wiring error out from one node to error in of the next node.
status is TRUE (X) if an error occurred before this VI or function ran or FALSE (checkmark) to indicate a warning or that no error occurred before this VI or function ran. The default is FALSE.
code is the error or warning code. The default is 0. If status is TRUE, code is a non-zero error code. If status is FALSE, code is 0 or a warning code.
source describes the origin of the error or warning and is, in most cases, the name of the VI or function that produced the error or warning. The default is an empty string.
input or output indicates whether the sound operation identified in task ID in is configured for input or output.
input buffer size indicates the internal buffer size for the sound input operation. You specify the buffer size with the SI Config VI.
task ID out is the manipulated sound operation originally passed in the task ID in parameter.
device identifies the input devices on the computer. Device ranges are from 0 to n-1. (This parameter is ignored on the Macintosh operating system.)
sound format identifies how the sound operation is set up (Mono or Stereo), its playing rate (speed), and whether it set up as 8- or 16-bit sound.
sound quality indicates whether the sound operation is in stereo or monaural.
rate indicates the sample rate for the sound input operation or the updated rate for the sound operation: 11025, 22050, or 44100 Hz.
bits per sample indicates whether the sound operation is set up for 8 bits or 16 bits per sample.
error out contains error information. If error in indicates that an error occurred before this VI or function ran, error out contains the same error information. Otherwise, it describes the error status that this VI or function produces. Right-click the error out indicator on the front panel and select Explain Error from the shortcut menu for more information about the error.
status is TRUE (X) if an error occurred or FALSE (checkmark) to indicate a warning or that no error occurred.
code is the error or warning code. If status is TRUE, code is a non-zero error code. If status is FALSE, code is 0 or a warning code.
source describes the origin of the error or warning and is, in most cases, the name of the VI or function that produced the error or warning.
