Audio Unit Processing Graph Services
Audio Unit Processing Graph Services provide interfaces for representing a set of audio units, connections between their inputs and outputs, and callbacks used to provide inputs. It also enables the embedding of sub (or child) processing graphs within parent graphs to allow for a logical organization of parts of an overall signal chain.
Overview
An audio processing graph object (of type AUGraph) is a complete description of an audio signal processing network. Audio Unit Processing Graph Services may manage the instantiated audio units if the AUGraphOpen function is called.
An audio processing graph object may be introspected to get complete information about all of the audio units in the graph. The various node objects (each of type AUNode) in the graph, each representing an audio unit or a sub graph, may be added or removed, and the interactions between them modified.
A graph object’s state can be manipulated in both the rendering thread and in other threads. Consequently, any activities that affect the state of the graph are guarded with locks and a messaging model between any calling thread and the thread upon which the graph object’s output unit is called (the render thread).
A graph object will have a single head node––an output unit. The output unit is used to both start and stop the rendering operations of a graph, and is the dispatch point for the safe manipulation of the state of the graph while it is running.
