I have been facing this since so many days but I have not reach to any conclusion.
My problem is : I want to play an mp3 file but not simply by clicking on a play button.
It is this way I want to play it.
*There is a slider that I can drag using finger, I want that the mp3 should play with the frequency with which I am dragging the finger (or speed with which I am dragging my finger, so that it will give an effect of fast forwarding (funny type of voice)) or if I drag slider slowyly the output will be slow *
The problem is the output of the sound is not coming out smooth. its very distorted and disturbed voice.
I want the outuput to be smoother.
Please help. Any suggestions please. Presently I am using AVAudioPlayer and passing the time value based upon slider input to play the file. (It does not seems to be feasible though).
I feel that it is possible using openAL only and no other way. Because using openAL we can modify the frequency of the sound file (pitch)
CAN SOME ONE PLEASE REFER ME A LINK TO openAL implementation for iPhone . I have never played a sound file using openAL
Help!!
You won't be able to do it with AVAudioPlayer, as it does not support pitch operations.
You can load and decode the entire track into memory for playback with OpenAL (which supports pitch), or you can do realtime loading/decoding and pitch changing using Audio Units (MUCH lower level, and more complicated, though).

I'm making a rhythm game, and I use 'AudioSource.PlayOneShot()' function to play the hit sound when the player hits the note. I downloaded a beatmap from Osu!Mania to test my game.
I found when there's too many audio clips playing simultaneously (20 audio clips or more per second), the audio output becomes stuttered, disorder, and the audio clips played earlier will temporarily be muted until the number of simultaneous audio clips playing is cut down to a certain amount...
It's common in difficult levels of rhythm games (play many audio clips simultaneously), I'm wondering how to solve this problem.
The problem exists on Windows whether on the Editor or not, and the FPS is OK when the problem happened.
Sorry for poor English.
The expected performance is playing many audio clips simultaneously fluently.
Okay... I've found the solution myself.
Open Edit->Project Settings->Audio,
and change the setting 'Max Real Voices' and 'Max Virtual Voices'.
I have a script, to play a sound clip when a footstep is taken. I use events in the animation tab, and when I play the sound, it will only be audible if i am looking at the character, or npc, the audio source is in fact on the character, but i don't know what is causing this.
On your AudioSource, you could play around with the 3D sound settings:
Been scratching my head with this one, to no avail.
Am just trying to find out how to instantly change the current playback position when using the AKAudioPlayer provided by AudioKit.
player.playhead is read-only, so cant be changed.
changing player.startTime whilst the player is already playing seems to change the playback position in terms of the reported .playhead position but the actual audio being played does not change position - am I missing something here?
Obviously I can stop audio and restart at new position but a several second expensive CPU gap is not desirable for a a simple mp3 / wav file player!
Any ideas?
We've added a new player called AKPlayer which will also allow scanning through the file. The player will stream from disk by default. This player is designed to fix some of the shortcomings in AKAudioPlayer.
OK Aurelius pointed me in the right direction of a new class introduced a couple weeks ago called AKClipPlayer
Like the standard Apple AV class you can now set the .currentTime property (in seconds) (the AKAudioPlayer class did not allow this) - it seems to stop playback doing this though so don't forget to .play() your node right after - there is no glitch or pause, is seamless on an old iPhone6S
I am trying to see if it is possible to record a video from the iPhone's camera and write this to a file. I then want the video to start playing on the screen a set time after. This all needs to happen continuously. For example, I want the video on the screen to always be 20 seconds behind what the camera is recording.
Some background:
I have a friend who is a coach and would like for his players to be able to see their last play. This could be accomplished by a feed going to a TV from an iPad always 20 seconds behind what is recorded. This needs to continually run until practice is over. (I would connect the iPad to the TV either with a cable or AirPlay to an Apple TV). The video would never need to be saved and should just be discarded after playing.
Is this even possible with the APIs AVFoundation offers? Will the iPhone let you write to a file and read from a file at the same time to accomplish this? Any other better way to accomplish this?
Thanks for your time.
Instead of writing to a file, how about saving your frames in a circular buffer big enough to hold X seconds of video?
The way I would start to do this would be to look at what's provided in AVCaptureVideoDataOutput and its delegate methods (where you can get the frame data from).
Can somebody tell me how to scrub the AQPlayer ( used in Apple's SpeakHere example ) using a UISlider like the iPod does?
I know how to handle the slider part, but once I have my value from the slider, what do I need to set/change/update in AQPlayer, or the AudioQueue, so that the player moves to that part of the Queue and continues playing from that point?
Is there any easy way to do this with a percentage of the playing time or do I have to make some calculations with the packets??
Thanks for any input.

For anyone who also needs to seek/scrubb in an audio file, I found a solution to my question at the following link: Audio Queues
Have a look at the function
-(void)seek:(UInt64)packetOffset;
It worked perfectly after some initial fine tuning.
