AudioInput Property


The AudioInput property gets and sets the recognizer's audio input device.


Syntax

Set: SpeechRecognizer.AudioInput = SpObjectToken
Get: SpObjectToken = SpeechRecognizer.AudioInput

Parts

SpeechRecognizer
The owning object.
SpObjectToken
Set: An SpObjectToken object that sets the property. If this parameter is Nothing, the default audio input device will be used.
Get: An SpObjectToken object that sets the property.

Example

The following Visual Basic form code demonstrates the use of the AudioInput property. The current audio input device (commonly a sound card) is displayed. To run this code, create a form with the following control:

  • A command button called Command1
  • Paste this code into the Declarations section of the form.

    The Command1 procedure creates a new recognizer object and displays the default audio input device. It then sets the recognizer's AudioInput property to Nothing and shows the results. Finally, the procedure lists the names of all available audio input devices.


    Option Explicit
    
    Dim R As SpeechLib.SpSharedRecognizer
    Dim T As SpeechLib.SpObjectToken
    
    Private Sub Command1_Click()
    
        Set R = New SpSharedRecognizer
        
        Debug.Print "New SpSharedRecognizer"
        Debug.Print "   AudioInput: " & R.AudioInput.GetDescription
        Debug.Print
        
        Set R.AudioInput = Nothing
        
        Debug.Print "Set to Nothing"
        Debug.Print "   AudioInput: " & R.AudioInput.GetDescription
        Debug.Print
        
        Debug.Print "Show all available inputs"
        For Each T In R.GetAudioInputs
            Debug.Print "   AudioInput: " & T.GetDescription
        Next
        
    End Sub
