% THIS IS EARLY ALPHA CODE! IT MAY OR MAY NOT WORK RELIABLY ON YOUR SETUP!
% TEST IT WITH MEASUREMENT EQUIPMENT IF YOU DEPEND ON ACCURATE FEEDBACK
% TIMING!!!
%
% Demonstrates very basic usage of the new Psychtoolbox sound driver
% PsychPortAudio() for audio feedback.
%
% Sound is captured from the default recording device and then - with a
% selectable delay - played back via the default output device.
%
% By default, feedback is tried with a latency of 7.5 ms plus hardware and
% system inherent delay, but you can ask for a specific latency in msecs by
% providing the optional parameter 'reqlatency'. Achievable latency will be
% constrained by the capabilities of your hardware. Choosing too low of a
% value will create audible artifacts in the sound and the driver may
% output warning about 'buffer underflows during streaming refill...'.
%
% Depending on your sound hardware you'll have to either leave 'duplex' at
% its default of zero (2 times half-duplex mode) or set it to 1
% (full-duplex mode): ASIO driven hardware -- typically on MS-Windows --
% will usually need full-duplex mode. On Macintosh OS/X it depends on the
% sound hardware. IntelMacs are happy with half-duplex mode, some PowerMacs
% may need full-duplex mode.
%
%
% If you need low-latency, make sure to read "help InitializePsychSound"
% carefully or contact the forum.
