NAudio.WinForms 3.1.1-preview.2

NAudio.WinForms

Nuget

Windows Forms controls for NAudio. Windows-only (net9.0-windows, UseWindowsForms=true).

What's included

A handful of reusable GUI controls useful when building audio apps with WinForms:

  • Fader — vertical channel fader
  • VolumeSlider — horizontal volume slider
  • PanSlider — pan control
  • Pot — rotary knob
  • WaveViewer — render a WaveStream as a waveform
  • ProgressLog — progress/log text control

When to use it

Install this package only if you are building a Windows Forms application and want ready-made audio controls. For WPF apps, use the NAudioWpfDemo project in the NAudio source tree as a reference and roll your own controls — there is no NAudio.Wpf package.

See the NAudio documentation site for tutorials and the full API reference, or the GitHub repository for full documentation and demos.

NAudio
NAudio is an open source .NET audio library — playback and recording, file readers and writers, MIDI, DSP and effects, with platform-specific backends auto-selected by target framework.

  • Fixed DirectSoundOut failing every playback with DirectSoundException 0x80004001 (or an ArgumentException for a format with extra data, e.g. one read from a WAV by WaveFileReader): the secondary buffer's WAVEFORMATEX was still a GCHandle-pinned WaveFormat instance — a site missed in the #1432 marshalling conversion, since WaveFormat no longer carries [StructLayout] — and now marshals via WaveFormat.MarshalToPtr
  • Fixed WasapiPlayer and WasapiOut being stranded in the Playing state, unable to play again, when the source's Read threw or the source ended before the first buffer was filled (#1442)
  • macOS support (preview) - A new wrappers library is added wrapping macOS native API's for playback/recording, reading/writing files and resampling audio. The NAudio.MacOS package ships pre-release only (X.Y.Z-preview.N) while its API settles, so it stays pre-release alongside stable releases of the other packages. Special thanks to @mdcdi1315 (#1325) for the work and the tests. For more information, see the design doc that describes the decisions that helped shape the wrappers. (#1398)
  • VB.NET support - Added SampleProviderBase and WaveProviderBase, base classes that keep the NAudio 2 Read(buffer, offset, count) signature for languages that cannot name a Span<T> in a method signature, and a Using NAudio from VB.NET guide covering playback, recording and custom providers from VB (#1426)
