About OpenAL?
OpenAL (Open Audio Library) is a cross-platform audio application programming interface (API) designed for efficient rendering of multichannel three dimensional positional audio. The API's style and conventions intentionally resemble those of OpenGL. OpenAL's functionality is based on source objects, audio buffers, and a single listener. A source object includes a pointer to a buffer, the velocity, position, direction, and intensity of the sound, while the listener object contains the velocity, position, direction of the listener, and the general gain applied to all sounds. Buffers contain audio data in PCM format, either 8- or 16-bit, in monaural or stereo format. The rendering engine carries out all necessary calculations for distance attenuation, the Doppler effect, and more.
