ESP Audio Render

[δΈ­ζ–‡]

ESP Audio Render is an advanced audio rendering component for Espressif SoCs. It mixes one or more PCM inputs and delivers the result to a user-provided writer callback. Each input is called a stream; a stream processor (per-stream EQ, Sonic speed change, etc.) can be connected before mixing, and a mixed processor (ALC, limiter, etc.) can be connected after mixing. The processing chain is dynamically generated by ESP-GMF elements to optimize performance. Suitable for scenarios such as music + TTS + notification sound layering and multi-track audio synthesis.

Key Features

  • Multi-stream mixing: mix multiple PCM inputs into a single output

  • Optional per-stream processing: each stream independently connects an ESP-GMF element chain for pre-processing

  • Optional post-mix processing: connect a unified mixed processor (e.g., ALC, limiter) after the mixer

  • Customizable output: deliver final PCM to the application via a writer callback; compatible with any sink such as I2S, Bluetooth sink, or network streaming

  • Dynamic pipeline: automatically generates the processing chain based on the number of active streams to avoid idle cycles and save CPU

  • Runtime control: each stream supports pause / resume / flush / speed change

  • Solo playback: designate one stream for solo while muting the others

  • Mix control: per-stream mixer gain and fade in/out

  • Dynamic output format switching: output sample rate, channels, and bit width can be changed at runtime without rebuilding the pipeline

  • Configurable frame size: the frame length per processing call is adjustable and can be aligned with the downstream sink
