Reference
Every function of the send flow: what it takes, what it returns, what it refuses, and how it undoes. A Result<T> is Ok(T) or a SuperbError; the errors listed are the ones you can cause.
add
pub fn add( session: &mut Session, track: TrackId, bus: TrackId, level_db: f32, tap: SendTap, ) -> Result<SendId>Adds a send from a track into a bus at level_db, tapped before or after
the fader (SendTap::PreFader / SendTap::PostFader).
Takes
session: &mut Session— the open session, borrowed mutablytrack: TrackId— the track's id, fromtrack::addorsession.memory.tracks()bus: TrackId— the bus track that receives the copylevel_db: f32— the send level in decibelstap: SendTap—SendTap::PostFader(after the strip's fader and pan) orSendTap::PreFader(before)
Returns Result<SendId> — the new send's id
Errors an unknown track or bus; a target that is not a bus; the master as source or target; a bus sending to itself.
Undo one undo step; rebuilds the mixer (at once while a device plays, otherwise at the next start).
Made of Memory::allocate_send_id → TrackSend::with_id → AddSend through session::structural; rebuilds the mixer.
Example
let s = send::add(&mut session, vox, verb, -12.0, SendTap::PostFader)?;remove
pub fn remove(session: &mut Session, send: SendId) -> Result<()>Removes a send.
Takes
session: &mut Session— the open session, borrowed mutablysend: SendId— the send's id, fromsend::addortrack.sends()
Returns Result<()> — nothing
Errors an unknown send.
Undo one undo step; rebuilds the mixer (at once while a device plays, otherwise at the next start).
Made of RemoveSend through session::structural; rebuilds the mixer.
Example
send::remove(&mut session, s)?;level
pub fn level(session: &mut Session, send: SendId, db: f32) -> Result<()>Sets a send's level in dB. Moves within Session::COALESCE_WINDOW of each
other are one undo step.
Takes
session: &mut Session— the open session, borrowed mutablysend: SendId— the send's id, fromsend::addortrack.sends()db: f32— a level in decibels;0.0is unity, negative is quieter
Returns Result<()> — nothing
Errors an unknown send.
Undo one undo step per drag: calls within Session::COALESCE_WINDOW (half a second) merge; the live send hears it at once.
Made of set_send_level_db through session::edit → SendParams::set_level_db on the live send.
Example
send::level(&mut session, s, -6.0)?;enable
pub fn enable(session: &mut Session, send: SendId, on: bool) -> Result<()>Switches a send on or off. State, like mute: saved, heard at the next block, not an undo step.
Takes
session: &mut Session— the open session, borrowed mutablysend: SendId— the send's id, fromsend::addortrack.sends()on: bool—trueto switch on,falseto switch off
Returns Result<()> — nothing
Errors an unknown send.
Undo none: state, not an edit (saved through the state file, see session::state_file); the live send hears it at once.
Made of SendState::enabled through session::set_state → SendParams::set_enabled on the live send.
Example
send::enable(&mut session, s, false)?;
