The maximum number of audio buffers (for the Buffer class).

The maximum number of audio bus channels. This includes the channels connected to hardware (outputBusChannels) as well as all channels for internal routing.

The calculation block size. That is, the number of audio samples calculated en-bloc. This corresponds with the control rate, such that controlRate := audioRate / blockSize. It should be a power of two.

The maximum number of control bus channels.

(Realtime) An option denoting the name of the sound card to use. On systems which distinguish input and output devices (OS X), this implies that both are the same. Otherwise, you can use the deviceNames method instead.

(Realtime) An option denoting the name of the input and output sound device to use. This is for systems which distinguish input and output devices (OS X). If you use a single device both for input and output (applies to most professional audio interfaces), you can simply use the single string method deviceName.

(Realtime) A value to adjust the sound card's hardware block size. Typically you will leave this to 0 which means that the current block size is used. The block sizes supported depend on the particular sound card. Lower values decrease latency but may increase CPU load.

(Realtime) Host address of scsynth, when trying to connect to an already running server on the net.

(Realtime) The number of connected audio hardware input channels. This does not need to correspond to the actual number of channels your sound card provides, but can be lower or higher, although a higher value doesn't have any effect as channel indices above the number of channels of the sound card will be treated as internal channels.

(Realtime) An option to enable particular input 'streams' or 'bundles' of a sound card. This is a 'binary' String made of '0' and '1' characters. If the string is "01100", for example, then only the second and third input streams on the device will be enabled.

A utility method providing the audio bus offset for the start of the internal channels. (simply the sum of outputBusChannels and inputBusChannels).

Whether scsynth should load synth definitions stored on the hard-disk when booted.

?

(Realtime) The maximum number of client connections when using TCP transport.

The maximum number of concurrent nodes (synths and groups).

The maximum number of synth defs.

The maximum number of pre-allocated realtime memory in bytes. This memory is used for many UGens such as Limiter, DelayN etc. It does not affect dynamically allocated memory such as audio buffers.

(Non-Realtime) Path to the binary OSC file.

(Non-Realtime) Audio file format for writing the output.

(Non-Realtime) Path to the audio input file used as audio input bus supplement.

(Non-Realtime) Path to the audio output file used as audio output bus supplement.

(Non-Realtime) Audio sample format for writing the output.

The number of connected audio hardware output channels. This does not need to correspond to the actual number of channels your sound card provides, but can be lower or higher, although a higher value doesn't have any effect as channel indices above the number of channels of the sound card will be treated as internal channels.

(Realtime) An option to enable particular output 'streams' or 'bundles' of a sound card. This is a 'binary' String made of '0' and '1' characters. If the string is "01100", for example, then only the second and third output streams on the device will be enabled.

An explicit list of paths where DSP plugins are found. Usually this is not specified, and scsynth looks for plugins in their default location.

(Realtime) UDP or TCP port used by scsynth.

The path to scsynth, used when booting a server. This can be either a relative path (relating to the JVM's working directory), or an absolute path.

The number of individual random number generators allocated.

An option to restrict access to files (e.g. for loading and saving buffers) to a particular directory. This is a security measure, preventing malicious clients from accessing parts of the hard-disk which they shouldn't.

The audio hardware sampling rate to use. A value of 0 indicates that scsynth should use the current sampling rate of the audio hardware. An explicit setting will make scsynth try to switch the sound card's sample rate if necessary.

(Realtime) A requires session password when using TCP transport. When using TCP and the password option is set, each client must send the correct password as the first command to the server, otherwise it is rejected.

Produces a command line for booting scsynth in non-realtime mode.

Produces a command line for booting scsynth in realtime mode.

(Realtime) Open Sound Control transport used by scsynth. (Either of UDP and TCP).

The verbosity level of scsynth. The standard value is 0, while -1 suppresses informational messages, -2 also suppresses many error messages.

The maximum number of concurrent connections between UGens in a single synth. ScalaCollider performs a depth-first topological sorting of the synth defs, so you should not worry too much about this value. It can become important in very heavy channel expansions and mix-down.

This value will be automatically increased if a more complex def is loaded at startup, but it cannot be increased thereafter without rebooting.

(Realtime) Whether to announce scsynth's OSC service via zero conf. See Wikipedia for more details.
