playTone(frequencies, duration, blocking=False, device=0)
Static Method

source code 

Plays one or several sine tones with given frequencies and duration.

Parameters:
  • frequencies - the frequency or a list of several frequencies in Hz
  • duration - the duration in s
  • blocking - if True, the functions blocks until playing is finished; otherwise it returns immediately (default: False)
  • device - the sound device ID (e.g. 0: standard device, 1: USB sound adapter)

isPlaying()
Static Method

source code 

Checks if the sound is still playing.

Returns:
True, if the sound is playing; otherwise False

__init__(self, audiofile, device=0)
(Constructor)

source code 

Creates a sound player to play the given audio file (wav, mp3, etc.) to be played at given device ID. Throws exception, if the sound resource is not found.

Parameters:
  • audiofile - the sound file to play
  • device - the sound device ID (e.g. 0: standard device, 1: USB sound adapter)

play(self, volume=1, blocking=False)

source code 

Plays the sound with given volume (default: 1). The function returns immediately.

Parameters:
  • volume - the sound level (default: 1)
