The sound spooler currently includes these function calls, grouped here by the type of function that each performs.The calls can be broken down into four different categories:

The following two calls are convenience calls:

• ssplPlayData() Waits for next available buffer then sends a block full of data to the DSP.
• ssplSpoolData() Send a block full of data.

The following calls are used to manage the sound spooler:

• ssplAbort() Abort SoundSpooler.
• ssplCreateSoundSpooler() Create a SoundSpooler data structure and initialize it.
• ssplDeleteSoundSpooler() Delete a SoundSpooler data structure.
• ssplDetachInstrument() Detach the current sample player instrument from the SoundSpooler.
• ssplGetSpoolerStatus() Get SoundSpooler status flags.
• ssplPause() Pauses the SoundSpooler.
• ssplProcessSignals() Process completion signals that have been received.
• ssplReset() Reset Sound Spooler.
• ssplResume() Resume SoundSpooler playback.
• ssplSetSoundBufferFunc() Install new SoundBufferFunc in SoundSpooler.
• ssplStartSpooler() Start SoundSpooler.
• ssplStartSpoolerTags() Start SoundSpooler with tags.
• ssplStopSpooler() Stop SoundSpooler.

The following calls help manage a SoundBufferNode:

• ssplGetSequenceNum() Get sequence number of a SoundBufferNode.
• ssplGetUserData() Get user data from a SoundBufferNode.
• ssplRequestBuffer() Asks for an available buffer.
• ssplSendBuffer() Send a buffer full of data.
• ssplSetBufferAddressLength() Attach sample data to a SoundBufferNode.
• ssplSetUserData() Store user data in a SoundBufferNode.
• ssplUnrequestBuffer() Return an unused buffer to the sound spooler.

The following low level calls help manage the sound spooler:

• ssplAttachInstrument() Attach new sample player to instrument SoundSpooler.
• ssplDetachInstrument() Detach the current sample player instrument from the SoundSpooler.

The following call is used by spplProcessSignals():

• SoundBufferFunc SoundSpooler callback function typedef.
• UserBufferProcessorCallback function called by ssplProcessSignals().
