About:
AudioFile is a lightweight, header-only C++ library designed for simple audio file reading and writing. It abstracts away the complexities of low-level audio formats, allowing developers to easily load audio data into arrays for processing. Its primary value is providing a straightforward, dependency-free solution for integrating audio file I/O into C++ applications.
Key Features:
  • Header-only library (no build/linking required)
  • Supports WAV, AIFF, and FLAC formats
  • Simple API for reading and writing audio data
  • Zero external dependencies
Use Cases:
  • Prototyping audio processing algorithms in C++
  • Building custom synthesizers or audio analysis tools
  • Integrating audio file support into game engines or applications
Alternatives:
  • libsndfile – More comprehensive format support and industry standard, but requires linking against an external library.
  • libaudiofile – Older library, largely deprecated in favor of modern alternatives.
