Creating Wav Sounds at user informed frequencies

Hello all,

I would like to know if you know the source code to create in fortran .wav sounds at user informed frequencies?

thanks
ivomar

You are going to need to be more specific with your question. Do you mean create a .wav file programmatically, produce a sound programmatically, or produce a sound from a pre-existing .wav file?

Yeah, I want to create programmaticaly (source code) that generates .wav files. I want to generate a .wav file with a beep where you can specify its frequency and duration to be played in other programs. Aren't there any modules in Fortran that already perform this task?

Greetings,
Ivomar

Why don't you use the WinAPI function
BOOL Beep(
DWORD dwFreq, // sound frequency, in hertz
DWORD dwDuration // sound duration, in milliseconds
);
for this purpose. It's simple to call from within CVF. For example:

USE DFWINTY
USE KERNEL32

INTEGER (DWORD) dwFreq, dwDuration
INTEGER iRet

dwFreq = 200 ! Hz
dwDuration = 1000 ! ms
iRet = Beep(dwFreq, dwDuration)
