I' m having some issues using AudioRecord class. I want to store recorded data in a buffer, but I' m not sure what is the proper way to achieve that. I went through great number of examples, but most of them were comlicated and representing many different approaches. I' m looking for simple one or simple explanation. Here are my audio settings for my project: int audioSource = AudioSource.MIC; int sampleRateInHz = 8000; int channelConfig = AudioFormat.CHANNEL_IN_MONO; int audioFormat = AudioFormat.ENCODING_PCM_16BIT; int bufferSizeInBytes = AudioRecord.getMinBufferSize(sampleRateInHz, channelConfig, audioFormat); short[] buffer = new short[bufferSizeInBytes]; AudioRecord audioRecorder = new AudioRecord(audioSource, sampleRateInHz, channelConfig, audioFormat, bufferSizeInBytes); I' m trying to create a Recording function: public void Recording() { audioRecorder.startRecording(); ... audioRecorder.stop(); audioRecorder.release(); } I know that I' m supposed to use .read(short[] audioData, int offsetInShorts, int sizeInShorts) function. And here my problems start. I' m not sure how audioData buffer works - I assume function puts recorded samples into the audioData. What happens if it completely filled with data? It starts rewriting from the earliest position? If it does I believe I have to copy all collected samples somwhere else. It raises another question - how can I check if .read(...) function buffer is already full? Do I need to measure time and copy buffer content or there is another way to reach that? Also do I need to create a thread for whole recording operation? Sorry for asking so many questions in one topic :)
