library for use in Windows and MacOSX software. Its +purpose is to provide the most powerful and efficient (yet easy to use), +sample, stream, MOD music, and recording functions. All in a tiny DLL, +under 100KB in size. + +See the documentation for descriptions of all the BASS functions. You +should also look at the included example program source-codes for some +examples of how to use BASS in your own programs. + + +Requirements +============ +Win32 version +------------- +BASS requires DirectX 3 or above for output. BASS does not require that a +soundcard with DirectSound/DirectSound3D hardware accelerated drivers is +installed, but it does improve performance if there is one. BASS also takes +advantage of MMX, which improves the performance of the MOD music playback. + +MacOSX version +-------------- +OSX 10.3 or above is recommended. BASS uses CoreAudio for output, so there +are no special library/driver requirements. BASS supports both PowerPC and +Intel Macs. + + +Main Features +============= +* Samples + supports WAV/AIFF/MP3/MP2/MP1/OGG and custom generated samples + +* Sample streams + stream any sample data in 8/16/32 bit, with both "push" and "pull" systems + +* File streams + MP3/MP2/MP1/OGG/WAV/AIFF file streaming + +* Internet file streaming + stream files from the internet, including Shout/Icecast + +* User file streaming + stream files from anywhere using any delivery method + +* Multi-channel streaming + support for more than plain stereo, including multi-channel OGG/WAV/AIFF files + +* MOD music + uses the same engine as XMPlay = best accuracy, speed, and quality + +* MO3 music + MP3/OGG compressed MOD music + +* Add-on system + support for more formats is available via add-ons (aka plugins) + +* Multiple outputs + simultaneously use multiple soundcards, and move channels between them + +* Recording + flexible recording system, with support for multiple devices + +* Decode without playback + streams and MOD musics can be outputted in any way you want + +* Speaker assignment + assign streams and MOD musics to specific speakers + +* High precision synchronization + synchronize events in your software to the streams and MOD musics + +* DirectX 8 effects + chorus/compressor/distortion/echo/flanger/gargle/parameq/reverb + +* User defined DSP functions + custom effects may be applied to musics and streams + +* 32 bit floating-point decoding and processing + floating-point stream/music decoding, DSP, FX, and recording + +* 3D sound + play samples/streams/musics in any 3D position, with EAX support + +* Small + BASS is under 100KB (on Windows), so won't bloat your distribution + + +Using BASS +========== +There is no guarantee that all future BASS versions will be compatible +with all previous versions, so your program should use BASS_GetVersion +to check the version that is loaded. This also means that you should +put the BASS module in the same directory as your executable (not just +somewhere in the path), to avoid the possibility of a wrong version being +loaded. + +If you are updating your software from a previous BASS version, then +you should check the "History" section (below), to see if any of the +functions that you are using have been affected by a change. + +Win32 version +------------- +C/C++, Visual Basic, Delphi and MASM APIs are provided, to use BASS with +another language you'll first have to convert the header file. Or, as a +last resort, you could use LoadLibrary and GetProcAddress. + +The downside is that you have to manually import each function that you +use, with the GetProcAddress function. But it has been made a lot simpler +to import BASS this way by the use of the BASSDEF #define. Here's a small +example: + +#define BASSDEF(f) (WINAPI *f) // define the functions as pointers +#include "bass.h" +... +HINSTANCE bass=LoadLibrary("BASS.DLL"); // load BASS +BASS_Init=GetProcAddress(bass,"BASS_Init"); // get BASS_Init +BASS_Init(-1,44100,0,hWnd,NULL); // call BASS_Init + +To use BASS with Borland C++ Builder, you'll first have to create a +Borland C++ Builder import library for it. This is done by using the +IMPLIB tool that comes with Borland C++ Builder. Simply execute this: + + IMPLIB BASSBCB.LIB BASS.DLL + +... and then use BASSBCB.LIB in your projects to import BASS. + +To use BASS with LCC-Win32, you'll first have to create a compatible +import library for it. This is done by using the PEDUMP and BUILDLIB +tools that come with LCC-Win32. Run these 2 commands: + + PEDUMP /EXP BASS.LIB > BASSLCC.EXP + BUILDLIB BASSLCC.EXP BASSLCC.LIB + +... and then use BASSLCC.LIB in your projects to import BASS. + +For the BASS functions that return strings (char*), VB users should use +the VBStrFromAnsiPtr function to convert the returned pointer into a VB +string. + +MacOSX version +-------------- +A separate "LIB" file is not required for OSX. Using XCode, you can simply +add the DYLIB file to the project. Or using a makefile, you can build your +programs like this, for example: + + gcc yoursource -L. -lbass -o yourprog + +The LIBBASS.DYLIB file must be put in the same directory as the executable +(it can't just be somewhere in the path). See the example makefiles. + +LIBBASS.DYLIB is a universal binary, with support for both PowerPC and +Intel Macs. If you want PowerPC-only or Intel-only versions, the included +makefile can create them for you, by typing "make ppc" or "make i386". It +will also process any BASS add-ons placed in the same directory. + + +Latest Version +============== +The latest version of BASS can always be found at the BASS website: + + www.un4seen.com + + +Licence +======= +BASS is free for non-commercial use. If you are a non-commercial entity +(eg. an individual) and you are not charging for your product, and the +product has no other commercial purpose, then you can use BASS in it +for free. If you wish to use BASS in commercial products, then please +also see the next section. + +TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, BASS IS PROVIDED +"AS IS", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, +INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY +AND/OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE AUTHORS SHALL NOT BE HELD +LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGE THAT MAY RESULT FROM THE USE OF BASS. YOU USE +BASS ENTIRELY AT YOUR OWN RISK. + +Usage of BASS indicates that you agree to the above conditions. + +All trademarks and other registered names contained in the BASS +package are the property of their respective owners. + +Commercial licensing +-------------------- +BASS is available for use in your commercial products. The licence +types available are as follows: + +SHAREWARE: Allows the usage of BASS in an unlimited number of your +shareware products, which must sell for no more than 40 Euros each. +If you are an individual (not a corporation) making and selling your +own software (and its price is within the limit), this is the licence +for you. + +SINGLE COMMERCIAL: Allows the usage of BASS in a single commercial +product. + +UNLIMITED COMMERCIAL: Allows the usage of BASS in an unlimited number +of your commercial products. This licence is on a per site basis. So +if your company has two sites that use BASS, then two licences are +required. + +Please note the products must be end-user products, eg. not components +used by other products. + +These licences only cover your own software, not the publishing of +other's software. If you publish other's software, its developers (or +the software itself) will need to be licensed to use BASS. + +These licences are on a per-platform basis, with reductions available +when licensing for both platforms. In all cases there are no royalties +to pay, and you can use future BASS updates without further cost. One +licence covers one person or entity and is not transferable. + +These licences do not allow reselling/sublicensing of BASS. For example, +if a product is a development system, the users of said product are not +licensed to use BASS in their productions; they will need their own +licences. + +If the standard licences do not meet your requirements, or if you have +any questions, please get in touch (email: bass@un4seen.com). + +Visit the BASS website for the latest pricing: + + www.un4seen.com + +MP3 +--- +MP3 technology is patented, and Thomson license the use of their and +Fraunhofer's patents. The inclusion of an MP3 decoder (eg. BASS) in a +commercial product requires an MP3 patent licence. Contact Thomson for +details: + + www.mp3licensing.com + +Alternatively, the "MP3-FREE" BASS version does not include its own MP3 +decoder but instead makes use of the operating system's already licensed +decoder. + +NOTE: When using the OS's MP3 decoder, BASS still does the file handling + so all the usual features are still supported, including streaming, + tag reading, pre-scanning, gapless playback, etc... + + +History +======= +These are the major (and not so major) changes at each version stage. +There are of course bug fixes and other little improvements made along +the way too!
