<p class="warntip">Dr. Taylor's students please take note: **Each student must __work individually__ on this assignment. If you have any questions on how to do something, you must __ask me__ for assistance. You may __not__ ask questions of other humans.**</p> ## Prerequisite Prior to beginning the lab assignment, you must install the OpenJDK version of Java 11 along with the JavaFX library. See [these instructions](https://taylorial.com/cs1021/Install.htm). ## Resources Needed * [`WavFile.java`](WavFile.java) - [`WavFile` Documentation](WavFile.html) * Audio files: [cymbal.wav](cymbal.wav), [ominous.wav](ominous.wav), and [more files](lab1.zip) ## Overview In this assignment you will make use of the [`WavFile`](WavFile.html) class to read and write `.wav` audio files. ## Details ### ArrayList Requirement This assignment is meant as a review of material covered in CS1011. You are required to use at least one `ArrayList` object. ### Using a Supplied Class For this assignment, you will need to make use of the [WavFile.java](WavFile.java) file ([javadoc](WavFile.html)). You may not change package for `WavFile` class. You must place it in the appropriate folder within your project. ### Basic Program Flow You'll need to create one class called `Lab1` which should be in a package named the same as your MSOE username (e.g., `taylor`). Note: Do not place all of the functionality for your program in `main`. Prior to coding, decide on how you plan to encapsulate functionality into multiple methods. This class must contain your program that makes use of the [`WavFile`](WavFile.html) class to do the following: * Ask the user to enter **0**, **1**, **2**, or **3**. If the user enters anything other than one of those four options, the program should reprompt the user to enter one of the four options (it should continue to do this forever). * If the user enters **0**, the program should exit. * If the user enters **1**, the program should prompt the user to enter a filename (without the `.wav` extension) and then read the file in and write a separate `.wav` file with all of the audio samples placed in reverse order. For example, if the user enters `cymbal`, the output file should be called `cymbalRev.wav`. Once this has been completed, the program should return to the prompt which asks the user to enter **0**, **1**, **2**, or **3**. * If the user enters **2**, then the program should ask the user for a filename (without an extension) and a frequency. The program should then create a `.wav` file containing one second worth of audio that represents a tone at the specified frequency. Once this has been completed, the program should return to the prompt which asks the user to enter **0**, **1**, **2**, or **3**. * __Optional__: If the user enters **3**, then the program should ask the user for a filename (without an extension) and two frequencies. The program should then create a `.wav` file containing one second worth of audio in stereo. One frequency should be on one channel and the other frequency on the other channel. Once this has been completed, the program should return to the prompt which asks the user to enter **0**, **1**, **2**, or **3**. Note: Your program must not crash on menu selection regardless of what the user enters for a menu option. ## Hints * To generate one second of audio, make sure that the `numFrames` and the `sampleRate` contain the same value. * You may use [cymbal.wav](cymbal.wav) and [ominous.wav](ominous.wav) as sample `.wav` files. You may wish to use the `WavFile.toString()` method to determine appropriate values to pass the multi-argument `WavFile` constructor. [Here](lab1.zip) are some additional .wav files for those interested. * Place the `.wav` file in the project folder (in the same folder/directory that contains the `src` folder (not in the `src` folder)). * To generate a tone at a given frequency you should generate a sine wave with values between -1.0 and 1.0 at the specified frequency. The formula to use for this is $ \sin(2\pi \times i \times \frac{freq}{sampleRate}) $. Where $ i $ is the counter in the loop generating samples. Since the $ sampleRate $ is the number of samples per second, if you desire one second worth of sound, you'll need to generate $ sampleRate $ samples. * To generate stereo audio you will need to set the number of channels to two and interleave the audio samples for each channel in the `ArrayList` of samples. Said another way, the samples for the first channel should be placed only at even indices and the samples for the second channel should be placed only at odd indices. * Once you have placed the samples into the `WavFile` object, be sure to call `.close()` to be sure the file has been written completely. ## Acknowledgment This laboratory assignment was developed by [Dr. Chris Taylor](/taylor/). <div class="notetip"> See your professor's instructions for details on submission guidelines and due dates. </div>
