Description
adc~ is the audio-to-digital converter for a signal-processing patch which can be used to route signal inputs from external devices or inputs into your patch. It can also be used to turn MSP's signal-processing on or off entirely.
Examples
Arguments
inputs [int]
You can create a adc~ object that uses one or more audio input channel numbers between 1 and 512. These numbers refer to logical channels and can be dynamically reassigned to physical device channels of a particular driver using either the Audio Status window, its I/O Mappings subwindow, or an adstatus object with an input keyword argument. If the computer's built-in audio hardware is being used, there will be two input channels available. Other audio drivers and/or devices may have more than two channels. If no argument is typed in, adc~ will have two outlets, initially set to logical input channels 1 and 2.

Sets whether an object belongs to the patcher's presentation.
presentation_rect [4 floats] (default: 0. 0. 0. 0.)
Sets the x and y position and width and height of the object in the patcher's presentation, leaving its patching position unchanged.
rect [4 floats]
Sets the x and y position and width and height of the object in both patching and presentation modes (if the object belongs to its patcher's presentation).
size [2 floats]
