SND_SetTrackModDepth

C Specification

#include <nitro/snd.h>
void SND_SetTrackModDepth(
int playerNo,
u32 trackBitMask,
int depth );

Arguments

playerNo The Player number. Takes a value between 0 and 15.
trackBitMask This is the track bit mask. It designates which track to use.
depth The modulation depth. Takes a value between 0 and 255.

Return Values

None.

Description

Changes the modulation depth of the tracks of the sequence being played by the Player specified by playerNo.

The track bit mask, trackBitMask, designates which track to use. Each bit expresses a track in descending order track 0 as the lowest bit. Operations are performed only on tracks with active bits.

The default value for the modulation depth depth is 0. In other words, there is no modulation effect in the default setting. The larger the value, the greater the effect. When the modulation type is the default type "note change," then a modulation depth value of 127 is exactly one half-note.

Caution

If a modulation depth value is already set inside the sequence data, the value set later is the one that is valid.

This function is an ARM7 reserved function. After this function is called, processing occurs only after the command is issued with the SND_FlushCommand function.

When it is necessary to synchronize something with the completion of the process, first use SND_GetCurrentCommandTag to obtain the command tag immediately after calling this function. After the command is issued, use the command tag and call either the SND_IsFinishedCommandTag or SND_WaitForCommandProc function to confirm that the process has finished or to wait for it to complete.
