sound (MATLAB Function Reference)

Convert vector into sound

Syntax

sound(y,Fs)
sound(y)
sound(y,Fs,bits)

Description

sound(y,Fs),

sends the signal in vector y (with sample frequency Fs) to the speaker on the PC and most UNIX platforms. Values in y are assumed to be in the range -1.0

y

1.0. Values outside that range are clipped. Stereo sound is played on platforms that support it when y is an n-by-2 matrix.

sound(y)

plays the sound at the default sample rate or 8192 Hz.

sound(y,Fs,bits)

plays the sound using bits bits/sample if possible. Most platforms support bits = 8 or bits = 16.

Remarks

MATLAB supports all Windows-compatible sound devices.
