play

Playing Amiga audio data

Description

A wrapper for tuneR-package's play routine. Allowing it to play Amiga audio (for instance stored in an 8SVX Interchange File Format).

Usage

## S4 method for signature 'ANY'
play(object, player = NULL, ...)

## S4 method for signature 'IFFChunk'
play(object, player = NULL, ...)

Arguments

`object`	An `IFFChunk-class` object that needs to be played. The `IFFChunk` should be of type FORM, containing an 8SVX chunk, or an 8SVX itself. `object` can also be of class `IFF.FORM` or `IFF.8SVX`. See `play` for other objects that can be played.
`player`	Path to the external audio player. See `play` for more details.
`...`	Arguments passed onto the tuneR `play` routine.

Details

A wrapper for tuneR-package's play routine. It will try to play audio using an external audio player. When 8SVX audio is played, each octave is played separately. When a FORM container contains multiple 8SVX samples, they are also played successively.

Note that a separate package is developed to interpret and play ProTracker modules and samples (ProTrackR).

Value

Returns a list of data returned by tuneR's play, for which the output is undocumented.

## Play the 8SVX sample:
