使用 waveIn 和 waveOut 在 windows 中进行录音和实时播放

Question

I want to record microphone audio input and, with some small time delay, play the recorded sound immediately. This will be done continuously using a queue of buffers.

I got the code running to the point that it almost continuously plays the microphone audio input, but there are very short but still noticeable repeated pauses throughout the whole audio output using waveOut. What is causing these annoying pauses? and how to remove them?

Another question is, I'm not using any thing like mutex, I'm relying on the fact that waveIn and waveOut have the same sampling rate and the same amount of data, so hopefully waveOut always follows waveIn and waveIn will not write to buffer being played. Would this be a problem?

Here's the code, it should compile and run. I only made the code run, and it's far from being well written. Any comment on improving the code is highly welcome.

The problem on your program is that you are declaring a too small bpbuff . Just try to declare it with size_t bpbuff = 4410; and you will get rid of all of these repeated breaks in your audio stream.

By the way, I think you could get rid of these threading approach making your code much more simple like this one below:

#include "stdafx.h"
#include <Windows.h>
#pragma comment(lib, "winmm.lib")
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <sstream>

using namespace std;
#define Samplerate 44100

static HWAVEIN hWaveIn;
static HWAVEOUT hWaveOut;

enum { NUM_BUF = 3 };
WAVEHDR _header [NUM_BUF];

void CALLBACK myWaveInProc(HWAVEIN hwi, UINT uMsg, DWORD dwInstance, DWORD dwParam1, DWORD dwParam2)
{
    static int _iBuf;
    waveOutWrite(hWaveOut, &_header[_iBuf], sizeof(WAVEHDR));   // play audio
    ++_iBuf;
    if (_iBuf == NUM_BUF)   _iBuf = 0;
    waveInAddBuffer (hWaveIn, & _header[_iBuf], sizeof (WAVEHDR)); 
}

int main(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])
{
    WAVEFORMATEX pFormat;
    pFormat.wFormatTag = WAVE_FORMAT_PCM; // simple, uncompressed format
    pFormat.nChannels = 1; // 1=mono, 2=stereo
    pFormat.nSamplesPerSec = Samplerate; 
    pFormat.wBitsPerSample = 16; // 16 for high quality, 8 for telephone-grade
    pFormat.nBlockAlign = pFormat.nChannels*pFormat.wBitsPerSample/8; 
    pFormat.nAvgBytesPerSec = (pFormat.nSamplesPerSec)*(pFormat.nChannels)*(pFormat.wBitsPerSample)/8; 
    pFormat.cbSize=0;

    short int  *_pBuf;
    size_t bpbuff = 4410;//= (pFormat.nSamplesPerSec) * (pFormat.nChannels) * (pFormat.wBitsPerSample)/8;
    _pBuf = new short int [bpbuff * NUM_BUF];

    waveInOpen(&hWaveIn, WAVE_MAPPER,&pFormat, (DWORD)myWaveInProc, 0L, CALLBACK_FUNCTION);
    waveOutOpen(&hWaveOut, WAVE_MAPPER, &pFormat, (DWORD_PTR)nullptr, 0, CALLBACK_FUNCTION);
    // initialize all headers in the queue
    for ( int i = 0; i < NUM_BUF; i++ )
    {
        _header[i].lpData = (LPSTR)&_pBuf [i * bpbuff];
        _header[i].dwBufferLength = bpbuff*sizeof(*_pBuf);
        _header[i].dwFlags = 0L;
        _header[i].dwLoops = 0L;
        waveInPrepareHeader(hWaveIn, & _header[i], sizeof(WAVEHDR));
    }
    waveInAddBuffer (hWaveIn, & _header[0], sizeof (WAVEHDR));

    waveInStart(hWaveIn);

    getchar();
    waveInClose(hWaveIn);
    waveOutClose(hWaveOut);
    delete _pBuf;

    return 0;
}

This piece of code performs exactly the same task with less code. Cheers, mate!
