<h1>21.1. <tt class="xref docutils literal"><span class="pre">audioop</span></tt> — Manipulate raw audio data<a class="headerlink" href="#module-audioop" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h1>
<p>The <tt class="xref docutils literal"><span class="pre">audioop</span></tt> module contains some useful operations on sound fragments.
It operates on sound fragments consisting of signed integer samples 8, 16 or 32
bits wide, stored in Python strings. All scalar items are integers, unless
specified otherwise.</p>
<p id="index-182">This module provides support for a-LAW, u-LAW and Intel/DVI ADPCM encodings.</p>
<p>A few of the more complicated operations only take 16-bit samples, otherwise the
sample size (in bytes) is always a parameter of the operation.</p>
<p>The module defines the following variables and functions:</p>
<dl class="exception">
<dt id="audioop.error">
<em class="property">
exception </em><tt class="descclassname">audioop.</tt><tt class="descname">error</tt><a class="headerlink" href="#audioop.error" title="Permalink to this definition">¶</a></dt>

<dd>Return a fragment which is the addition of the two samples passed as parameters.
<em>width</em> is the sample width in bytes, either <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">1</span></tt>, <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">2</span></tt> or <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">4</span></tt>. Both

<p>If you use the ADPCM coder to build network packets and you want your protocol
to be stateless (i.e. to be able to tolerate packet loss) you should not only
transmit the data but also the state. Note that you should send the <em>initial</em>
state (the one you passed to <a title="audioop.lin2adpcm" class="reference internal" href="#audioop.lin2adpcm"><tt class="xref docutils literal"><span class="pre">lin2adpcm()</span></tt></a>) along to the decoder, not the
final state (as returned by the coder). If you want to use
<tt class="xref docutils literal"><span class="pre">struct.struct()</span></tt> to store the state in binary you can code the first
element (the predicted value) in 16 bits and the second (the delta index) in 8.</p>
<p>The ADPCM coders have never been tried against other ADPCM coders, only against
themselves. It could well be that I misinterpreted the standards in which case
they will not be interoperable with the respective standards.</p>
<p>The <tt class="xref docutils literal"><span class="pre">find*()</span></tt> routines might look a bit funny at first sight. They are
primarily meant to do echo cancellation. A reasonably fast way to do this is to
pick the most energetic piece of the output sample, locate that in the input
