loadSample: Load a WAV File from Disk

In sound: A Sound Interface for R

Description

Load a wav file from disk and create a Sample object.

Usage

loadSample(filename, filecheck=TRUE)

Arguments

filename	a string giving the path and the name of the wav file.
filecheck	logical. If FALSE, no check for existance and read permission of the file will be performed.

Details

All kinds of wav files are supported: mono / stereo, 8 / 16 bits per sample, 1000 to 48000 samples/second.

Value

the Sample object that is equivalent to the wav file.

Note

filename can also be a Sample object. In this case, the same object will be returned immediately. This can be useful when writing functions that accept both Sample objects and the names of a wav file as an argument. See is.Sample for an example.
