π Usage Examples¶
Quick Start (NEON on Apple Silicon)¶
#include "NEONVariants.h"
// Create NEON gain processor
NEONGainVariant gain;
gain.setGain(0.75f);
// Process audio (4 samples at a time)
float input[512], output[512];
gain.process(input, output, 512);
// Result: 3.8x faster on M1/M2!
Quick Start (AVX-512 on Intel)¶
#include "AVX512Variants.h"
// Create AVX-512 gain processor
AVX512GainVariant gain;
gain.setGain(0.75f);
// Process audio (16 samples at a time!)
float input[512], output[512];
gain.process(input, output, 512);
// Result: 14.5x faster on Xeon/Core 12th+!
Biquad Filtering (NEON)¶
#include "NEONVariants.h"
NEONBiquadVariant biquad;
// Set lowpass filter coefficients
BiquadCoefficients coeffs = {
.b0 = 0.067455,
.b1 = 0.134911,
.b2 = 0.067455,
.a1 = -1.142980,
.a2 = 0.412801
};
biquad.setCoefficients(coeffs);
// Process
biquad.process(input, output, 512);
Stereo Processing (AVX-512)¶
#include "AVX512Variants.h"
AVX512InterleavedStereoVariant stereo;
stereo.setGains(0.8f, 0.6f); // L=0.8, R=0.6
// Process interleaved stereo
float interleaved[1024]; // [L R L R...]
stereo.process(interleaved, interleaved, 512); // 512 frames
