Methods
  NameDescription
Public methodClose
Closes the underlying stream.
Public methodDecode
Decodes the Wave stream into a Signal object.
Public methodDecode(Int32)
Decodes the Wave stream into a Signal object.
Public methodDecode(Int32, Int32)
Decodes the Wave stream into a Signal object.
Public methodEquals
Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.
(Inherited from Object.)
Protected methodFinalize
Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public methodGetHashCode
Serves as the default hash function.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public methodGetType
Gets the Type of the current instance.
(Inherited from Object.)
Protected methodMemberwiseClone
Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public methodOpen(SoundStream)
Opens the specified stream.
Public methodOpen(Stream)
Open specified stream.
Public methodOpen(String)
Open specified stream.
Public methodSeek
Navigates to a position in this Wave stream.
Public methodToString

Extension Methods
  NameDescription
Public Extension MethodHasMethod
Checks whether an object implements a method with the given name.
(Defined by ExtensionMethods.)
Public Extension MethodIsEqual
Compares two objects for equality, performing an elementwise comparison if the elements are vectors or matrices.
(Defined by Matrix.)
Public Extension MethodTo(Type)Overloaded.
Converts an object into another type, irrespective of whether the conversion can be done at compile time or not. This can be used to convert generic types to numeric types during runtime.
(Defined by ExtensionMethods.)
Public Extension MethodToTOverloaded.
Converts an object into another type, irrespective of whether the conversion can be done at compile time or not. This can be used to convert generic types to numeric types during runtime.
(Defined by ExtensionMethods.)

Examples
// Let's decode a Wave audio file
UnmanagedMemoryStream sourceStream = ...

// Create a decoder for the source stream
WaveDecoder sourceDecoder = new WaveDecoder(sourceStream);

// At this point, we can query some properties of the audio file:
int channels =  sourceDecoder.Channels;
int samples  =  sourceDecoder.Samples;
int frames   =  sourceDecoder.Frames;
int duration =  sourceDecoder.Duration;
int rate     =  sourceDecoder.SampleRate;
int bps      =  sourceDecoder.BitsPerSample;

// Decode the signal in the source stream
Signal sourceSignal = sourceDecoder.Decode();
