Hi,

How to stop playing an audio in between when using audioDeviceWriter?

deviceWriter = audioDeviceWriter
deviceWriter(Speech_sample); % Speech_sample is the desired speech variable.

For audioplayer,

play(audioplayer)

plays the audio while

stop(audioplayer)

stops it. Can an audio played by audioDeviceWriter be stopped in a similar way?

Play and stop functions are applicable for audioplayer and audiorecorder objects. An audio played by audioDeviceWriter can be stopped by using release function as audioDeviceWriter is a system object.

Use the below code for testing.

% Path for the below file is “C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2019a\examples\audio\farspeech” 
y = load('farspeech.mat')  
deviceWriter = audioDeviceWriter('SampleRate',10000); 
mySignal = y.x(1:20000); 
for i = 1:10 
deviceWriter(mySignal); 
end 

Use the command release(deviceWriter) to stop the audio after some delay.

Hi Sudeep Surendran,

Try to increase the number of iterations in the for loop and type release(deviceWriter) in the command window while the code is executing. The audio will be stopped after some delay.

Hi Devineni Aslesha,

I made the number of iterations to 1000 and did release(deviceWriter) . It doesn't stop in between and is still running.

audioDeviceWriter is designed to play back audio incrementally, by repeatedly writing frames (small amounts of the signal) to the audio device. It sends one frame of audio each time you call its step function. This enables you, among other things, to play back an infinite stream of data. By contrast, you must give audioplayer the entire signal when you create it.

To make an audioDeviceWriter stop playing audio, you simply stop calling its step function.

A good example is in:

openExample('dsp/ReadFromFileAndWriteToAudioDeviceExample')

The heart of the example is this loop:

while ~isDone(fileReader)
    audioData = fileReader();   % call fileReader step function to get a frame of audio from input file
    deviceWriter(audioData);    % call deviceWriter step function to play the frame of audio
end

This loop stops playing audio when the input file is exhausted (isDone(fileReader)).

You can change that logic to stop under whatever conditions make sense for your application. It might look something like this:

keepPlaying = true;
while ~isDone(fileReader) && keepPlaying
    audioData = fileReader();   % get a frame of audio from input file
    deviceWriter(audioData);    % write the audio to the output device
    keepPlaying = codeToDecideWhetherToKeepPlayingAudio; % whatever your application needs
end
