An AudioInput is a connection to the current record source of the computer.
How the record source for a computer is set will depend on the soundcard and OS,
but typically a user can open a control panel and set the source from there.
Unfortunately, there is no way to set the record source from Java.
This is particularly problematic on the Mac because the input will always wind
up being connected to the Mic-In, even if the user has set the input differently
using their audio control panel.
You can obtain an AudioInput from Minim by using one of the getLineIn methods: // get the default STEREO input AudioInput getLineIn() // specifiy either Minim.MONO or Minim.STEREO for type AudioInput getLineIn(int type) // bufferSize is the size of the left, right, // and mix buffers of the input you get back AudioInput getLineIn(int type, int bufferSize) // sampleRate is a request for an input of a certain sample rate AudioInput getLineIn(int type, int bufferSize, float sampleRate) // bitDepth is a request for an input with a certain bit depth AudioInput getLineIn(int type, int bufferSize, float sampleRate, int bitDepth)In the event that an input doesn't exist with the requested parameters, Minim will spit out an error and return null. In general, you will want to use the first two methods listed above.
