Options > Configure Audio Plugin

This page covers configuration of the default Project64 audio plugin - Azimer's Legacy Audio 0.70.10.

Settings Tab (Default)

"Game Profile"
"Output Devices"
"Backend Sound Driver"
"Volume"
"Mute"

Points

The audio plugin does not include an audio emulator! It must be used in conjunction with the RSP plugin. The RSP plugin must be configured with "send Audio Lists to Audio Plugin" disabled or the audio plugin will recieve no audio data and hence you will hear no sound!

"Game Profile"

This setting is disabled (greyed out) and serves no function currently.

"Output Devices"

This enables you to output the sound to whatever device may be listed in the dropdown list of available devices.

"Backend Sound Driver"

DirectSound 8 Driver (needs shoirt description)
DirectSound 8 Legacy Driver (needs shoirt description)
No Sound Driver (needs shoirt description)
WASAPI Driver (experimental) - (needs shoirt description)
WaveOut Driver (needs shoirt description)
XAudio 2 Driver (default setting) - (needs shoirt description)
XAudio 2 Legacy Driver (needs shoirt description)

By defualt the XAudio2 Driver is selected. But the user can use any option via a dropdown menu.

"Volume"

default setting: 50%
generally recommended setting: user preference!

It's function should be fairly obvious. You can use the Up and Down arrows and Page Up and Page Down keys and Mousewheel as shortcuts. Setting all the way down is equivalent to muting the emulator.

This setting is global (applies to all ROMs), takes effect instantly, and is saved in the AziCfg.bin.

"Mute"

This check box is a simple check on/off to mute or unmute sound. The only function it serves is as following:

Check to Mute
Un-check will return to original position when dialog is still open

If you mute and then click OK and close however, when you next load and un-check, it will be still on the zero. Use the volume slider to adjust the volume once again to your desired setting.
