Inheritance diagram for AAX_ITransport:

Description

Interface to information about the host's transport state.

:Implemented by the AAX Host:

Plug-ins that use this interface should describe AAX_eProperty_UsesTransport as 1

Acquire this interface using AAX_IMIDINode::GetTransport(). Classes that inherit from AAX_CEffectParameters or AAX_CEffectGUI can also use AAX_CEffectParameters::Transport() / AAX_CEffectGUI::Transport().

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

virtual AAX_ITransport::~AAX_ITransport ( )

inlinevirtual

Virtual destructor.

Note: This destructor MUST be virtual to prevent memory leaks.

Member Function Documentation

virtual AAX_Result AAX_ITransport::GetCurrentTempo ( double * TempoBPM ) const

pure virtual

CALL: Gets the current tempo.

Returns the tempo corresponding to the current position of the transport counter

Note: The resolution of the tempo returned here is based on the host's tempo resolution, so it will match the tempo displayed in the host. Use GetCurrentTicksPerBeat() to calculate the tempo resolution note.

Parameters

[out] TempoBPM The current tempo in beats per minute

Implemented in AAX_VTransport.

virtual AAX_Result AAX_ITransport::GetCurrentMeter	(	int32_t *	MeterNumerator,
		int32_t *	MeterDenominator
	)		const

pure virtual

CALL: Gets the current meter.

Returns the meter corresponding to the current position of the transport counter

Parameters

[out]	MeterNumerator	The numerator portion of the meter
[out]	MeterDenominator	The denominator portion of the meter

Implemented in AAX_VTransport.

virtual AAX_Result AAX_ITransport::IsTransportPlaying ( bool * isPlaying ) const

pure virtual

CALL: Indicates whether or not the transport is playing back.

Parameters

[out] isPlaying true if the transport is currently in playback

Implemented in AAX_VTransport.

virtual AAX_Result AAX_ITransport::GetCurrentTickPosition ( int64_t * TickPosition ) const

pure virtual

CALL: Gets the current tick position.

Returns the current tick position corresponding to the current transport position. One "Tick" is represented here as 1/960000 of a quarter note. That is, there are 960,000 of these ticks in a quarter note.

Host Compatibility Notes:: The tick resolution here is different than that of the tick displayed in Pro Tools. "Display ticks" (as they are called) are 1/960 of a quarter note.

Parameters

[out] TickPosition The tick position value

Implemented in AAX_VTransport.

virtual AAX_Result AAX_ITransport::GetCurrentLoopPosition	(	bool *	bLooping,
		int64_t *	LoopStartTick,
		int64_t *	LoopEndTick
	)		const

pure virtual

CALL: Gets current information on loop playback.

Host Compatibility Notes:: This does not indicate anything about the status of the "Loop Record" option. Even when the host is configured to loop playback, looping may not occur if certain conditions are not met (i.e. the length of the selection is too short)

Parameters

[out]	bLooping	`true` if the host is configured to loop playback
[out]	LoopStartTick	The starting tick position of the selection being looped (see GetCurrentTickPosition())
[out]	LoopEndTick	The ending tick position of the selection being looped (see GetCurrentTickPosition())

Implemented in AAX_VTransport.

virtual AAX_Result AAX_ITransport::GetCurrentNativeSampleLocation ( int64_t * SampleLocation ) const

pure virtual

CALL: Gets the current playback location of the native audio engine.

Note: This method only returns a value during playback. It cannot be used to determine, e.g., the location of the timeline selector while the host is not in playback.

Parameters

[out] SampleLocation Absolute sample location of the first sample in the current native processing buffer

Implemented in AAX_VTransport.

virtual AAX_Result AAX_ITransport::GetCustomTickPosition	(	int64_t *	oTickPosition,
		int64_t	iSampleLocation
	)		const

pure virtual

CALL: Given an absolute sample position, gets the corresponding tick position.

Host Compatibility Notes:: There is a minor performance cost associated with using this API in Pro Tools. It should not be used excessively without need.

Parameters

[out]	oTickPosition	the timeline tick position corresponding to `iSampleLocation`
[in]	iSampleLocation	An absolute sample location (see GetCurrentNativeSampleLocation())

Implemented in AAX_VTransport.

virtual AAX_Result AAX_ITransport::GetBarBeatPosition	(	int32_t *	Bars,
		int32_t *	Beats,
		int64_t *	DisplayTicks,
		int64_t	SampleLocation
	)		const

pure virtual

CALL: Given an absolute sample position, gets the corresponding bar and beat position.

Host Compatibility Notes:: There is a minor performance cost associated with using this API in Pro Tools. It should not be used excessively without need.

Parameters

[out]	Bars	The bar corresponding to `SampleLocation`
[out]	Beats	The beat corresponding to `SampleLocation`
[out]	DisplayTicks	The ticks corresponding to `SampleLocation`
[in]	SampleLocation	An absolute sample location (see GetCurrentNativeSampleLocation())

Implemented in AAX_VTransport.

virtual AAX_Result AAX_ITransport::GetTicksPerQuarter ( uint32_t * ticks ) const

pure virtual

CALL: Retrieves the number of ticks per quarter note.

Parameters

[out] ticks

Implemented in AAX_VTransport.

virtual AAX_Result AAX_ITransport::GetCurrentTicksPerBeat ( uint32_t * ticks ) const

pure virtual

CALL: Retrieves the number of ticks per beat.

Parameters

[out] ticks

Implemented in AAX_VTransport.

virtual AAX_Result AAX_ITransport::GetTimelineSelectionStartPosition ( int64_t * oSampleLocation ) const

pure virtual

CALL: Retrieves the current absolute sample position of the beginning of the current transport selection.

Note: This method is part of the version 2 transport interface

Parameters

[out] oSampleLocation

Implemented in AAX_VTransport.

virtual AAX_Result AAX_ITransport::GetTimeCodeInfo	(	AAX_EFrameRate *	oFrameRate,
		int32_t *	oOffset
	)		const

pure virtual

CALL: Retrieves the current time code frame rate and offset.

Note: This method is part of the version 2 transport interface

Parameters

[out]	oFrameRate
[out]	oOffset

Implemented in AAX_VTransport.

virtual AAX_Result AAX_ITransport::GetFeetFramesInfo	(	AAX_EFeetFramesRate *	oFeetFramesRate,
		int64_t *	oOffset
	)		const

pure virtual

CALL: Retrieves the current timecode feet/frames rate and offset.

Note: This method is part of the version 2 transport interface

Parameters

[out]	oFeetFramesRate
[out]	oOffset

Implemented in AAX_VTransport.

virtual AAX_Result AAX_ITransport::IsMetronomeEnabled ( int32_t * isEnabled ) const

pure virtual

Note: This method is part of the version 2 transport interface

Parameters

[out] isEnabled

Implemented in AAX_VTransport.
