public class PointSound
extends Sound

The PointSound node (a sub-class of the Sound node) defines a spatially located sound source whose waves radiate uniformly in all directions from a given location in space. It has the same attributes as a Sound object with the addition of a location and the specification of distance-based gain attenuation for listener positions between an array of distances.

A sound's amplitude is attenuated based on the distance between the listener and the sound source position. A piecewise linear curve (defined in terms of pairs of distance and gain scale factor) specifies the gain scale factor slope. The PointSound's location and attenuation distances are defined in the local coordinate system of the node.

Distance Gain Attenuation

Associated with distances from the listener to the sound source via an array of (distance, gain-scale-factor) pairs. The gain scale factor applied to the sound source is the linear interpolated gain value between the distance value range that includes the current distance from the listener to the sound source. If the distance from the listener to the sound source is less than the first distance in the array, the first gain scale factor is applied to the sound source. This creates a spherical region around the listener within which all sound gain is uniformly scaled by the first gain in the array. If the distance from the listener to the sound source is greater than the last distance in the array, the last gain scale factor is applied to the sound source.

Distance elements in this array of Point2f is a monotonically-increasing set of floating point numbers measured from the location of the sound source. Gain scale factors elements in this list of pairs can be any positive floating point numbers. While for most applications this list of gain scale factors will usually be monotonically-decreasing, they do not have to be. If this is not set, no distance gain attenuation is performed (equivalent to using a distance gain of 1.0 for all distances).

getDistanceGainLength method returns the length of the distance gain attenuation arrays. Arrays passed into getDistanceGain methods should all be at least this size.

There are two methods for getDistanceGain, one returning an array of points, the other returning separate arrays for each attenuation component.

setDistanceGain

public void setDistanceGain(Point2f[] attenuation)

Sets this sound's distance gain attenuation - where gain scale factor is applied to sound based on distance listener is from sound source. This form of setDistanceGain takes these pairs of values as an array of Point2f.

Sets this sound's distance gain attenuation as an array of Point2fs. This form of setDistanceGain accepts two separate arrays for these values. The distance and gainScale arrays should be of the same length. If the gainScale array length is greater than the distance array length, the gainScale array elements beyond the length of the distance array are ignored. If the gainScale array is shorter than the distance array, the last gainScale array value is repeated to fill an array of length equal to distance array.

Parameters:

distance - array of monotonically-increasing floats

gain - array of non-negative scale factors

Throws:

CapabilityNotSetException - if appropriate capability is not set and this object is part of live or compiled scene graph

getDistanceGainLength

public int getDistanceGainLength()

Get the length of this node's distance gain attenuation arrays.

Returns:

distance gain attenuation array length

Throws:

CapabilityNotSetException - if appropriate capability is not set and this object is part of live or compiled scene graph

getDistanceGain

public void getDistanceGain(Point2f[] attenuation)

Gets this sound's distance attenuation. The distance attenuation pairs are copied into the specified array. The array must be large enough to hold all of the points. The individual array elements must be allocated by the caller.

Parameters:

cloneNode

public Node cloneNode(boolean forceDuplicate)

Creates a new instance of the node. This routine is called by cloneTree to duplicate the current node.

Overrides:

cloneNode in class Node

Parameters:

forceDuplicate - when set to true, causes the duplicateOnCloneTree flag to be ignored. When false, the value of each node's duplicateOnCloneTree variable determines whether NodeComponent data is duplicated or copied.

See Also:

Node.cloneTree(), Node.cloneNode(boolean), Node.duplicateNode(org.jogamp.java3d.Node, boolean), NodeComponent.setDuplicateOnCloneTree(boolean)

duplicateNode

public void duplicateNode(Node originalNode,
                          boolean forceDuplicate)

Copies all node information from originalNode into the current node. This method is called from the cloneNode method which is, in turn, called by the cloneTree method.

For any NodeComponent objects contained by the object being duplicated, each NodeComponent object's duplicateOnCloneTree value is used to determine whether the NodeComponent should be duplicated in the new node or if just a reference to the current node should be placed in the new node. This flag can be overridden by setting the forceDuplicate parameter in the cloneTree method to true.
NOTE: Applications should not call this method directly. It should only be called by the cloneNode method.

Overrides:

duplicateNode in class Node

Parameters:

originalNode - the original node to duplicate.

forceDuplicate - when set to true, causes the duplicateOnCloneTree flag to be ignored. When false, the value of each node's duplicateOnCloneTree variable determines whether NodeComponent data is duplicated or copied.

Throws:

java.lang.ClassCastException - if originalNode is not an instance of PointSound
