<DllImportAttribute("bassasio">]
Public Shared Function BASS_ASIO_ChannelSetFormat ( 
	input As Boolean,
	channel As Integer,
	format As BASSASIOFormat
) As Boolean

Parameters

input

Type: SystemBoolean
Dealing with an input channel? = an output channel.

channel

Type: SystemInt32
The input/output channel number... 0 = first.

format

Type: Un4seen.BassAsioBASSASIOFormat
The sample format. One of the following (see BASSASIOFormat):

BASS_ASIO_FORMAT_16BIT	16-bit integer.
BASS_ASIO_FORMAT_24BIT	24-bit integer.
BASS_ASIO_FORMAT_32BIT	32-bit integer.
BASS_ASIO_FORMAT_FLOAT	32-bit floating-point.
BASS_ASIO_FORMAT_DSD_LSB	DSD with LSB first.
BASS_ASIO_FORMAT_DSD_MSB	DSD with MSB first.
BASS_ASIO_FORMAT_DITHER	flag: apply dither (TDPF) to the output.

Return Value

The sample format can vary between ASIO devices/drivers, which could mean a lot of extra/duplicate code being required. To avoid that extra work, BASSASIO can automatically convert the sample data, whenever necessary, to/from a format of your choice. The native format of a channel can be retrieved via BASS_ASIO_ChannelGetInfo(Boolean, Int32, BASS_ASIO_CHANNELINFO).

The PCM format options are only available when the device's format is PCM, and the DSD format options are only available when the device's format is DSD. If a device supports both, it can be switched between DSD and PCM via BASS_ASIO_SetDSD(Boolean).

For performance reasons, it's best not to use 24-bit sample data whenever possible, as 24-bit data requires a bit more processing than the other formats.
