- Description:
- OpenAL Soft is a software implementation of the OpenAL 3D audio
API. OpenAL provides capabilities for playing audio in a virtual
3D environment. Distance attenuation, doppler shift, and directional
sound emitters are among the features handled by the API. More
advanced effects, including air absorption, low-pass filters, and
reverb, are available through the EFX extension. It also facilitates
streaming audio, multi-channel buffers, and audio capture.

OpenAL Soft is a software implementation of the OpenAL 3D audio API and an
alternative to the somewhat outdated reference implementation.
As stated on the website, OpenAL provides capabilities for playing audio in a
virtual 3d environment. Distance attenuation, doppler shift, and directional
sound emitters are among the features handled by the API. More advanced
effects, including air absorption, low-pass filters, and reverb, are
available through the EFX extension. It also facilitates streaming audio,
multi-channel buffers, and audio capture.
