I'm using minim audiosnippets and I'm hearing a little muffled click or two at the end of each sample... those aren't audible when I play the wav file elsewhere. i don't remember it happening with older versions of minm... am I doing something wrong?


import ddf.minim.signals.*;
import ddf.minim.*;
import ddf.minim.analysis.*;
import ddf.minim.effects.*;



AudioSnippet song[] = new AudioSnippet[10];

Minim minim;

void setup()
{
 size(200, 200);
 // always start Minim first
minim = new Minim(this);
 // load a file into an AudioSnippet
 // it must be in this sketches data folder
 for(int i = 0; i < 10; i++){
 song[i] = minim.loadSnippet("scream"+i+".wav");
 }
}

void draw()
{
 background(0);
}

void keyPressed()
{
 if ( key >= '0' && key <= '9' )
 {
   int s = key - '0';
   println(s);
   song[s].rewind();
   song[s].play();
 }
}

void stop()
{
 // always close Minim audio classes
for(int i = 0; i < 10; i++){
 song[i].close();
}
 minim.stop();
 super.stop();
}

Is there a better place to go ask about this?

ddf are you ever going to get back to this
It was really painful for me last weekend (as my annoying, naggy, "what's going on" thread attests to) because I thought I was in the clear with 2.02 -- but then right as we go to demo it, it shows up again.

Ah ha! Figured it out. Your audio files are PCM_UNSIGNED and when I got to the end of the sample I'd fill out the remainer of my byte buffer that was sent to the output with "silence", but I was assuming a PCM_SIGNED format and filling it with 0. But if the format is unsigned then 0 is the smallest value a sample can be, as opposed to the neutral "silent" value.

So, this will be fixed in the next release, which should be this weekend or shortly thereafter.
