Adjust WAV Volume with ALC

Example Brief

This example demonstrates how to use the automatic level control (ALC) of ADF. It detects the amplitude of the voice signal and determines whether it exceeds the preset Max/Min value. If it exceeds the range, the amplitude of the audio signal will be adjusted according to the set gain to make it within a reasonable range, so as to achieve the purpose of controlling the volume.

ADF provides the following two ways to adjust volume with ALC:

  • For pipelines where USE_ALONE_ALC is enabled:

    sdcard ---> fatfs_stream ---> wav_decoder ---> ALC ---> i2s_stream ---> codec_chip ---> speaker

  • For pipelines where USE_ALONE_ALC is not enabled:

    sdcard ---> fatfs_stream ---> wav_decoder ---> i2s_stream ---> codec_chip ---> speaker

Environment Setup

Hardware Required

This example runs on the boards that are marked with a green checkbox in the table. Please remember to select the board in menuconfig as discussed in Section Configuration below.

Build and Flash

Default IDF Branch

This example supports IDF release/v5.0 and later branches. By default, it runs on ADF's built-in branch $ADF_PATH/esp-idf.

Configuration

In this example, you need to prepare an microSD card with an audio file in WAV format named test.wav, and insert the card into the development board.

The default board for this example is ESP32-Lyrat V4.3, if you need to run this example on other development boards, select the board in menuconfig, such as ESP32-Lyrat-Mini V1.1.

menuconfig > Audio HAL > ESP32-Lyrat-Mini V1.1

If you need to modify the audio file name, please enable FatFs long file name support.

menuconfig > Component config > FAT Filesystem support > Long filename support

Build and Flash

Build the project and flash it to the board, then run monitor tool to view serial output (replace PORT with your board's serial port name):

idf.py -p PORT flash monitor

To exit the serial monitor, type Ctrl-].

See ESP-IDF Programming Guide for full steps to configure and build an ESP-IDF project.

How to Use the Example

Example Functionality

In the program, USE_ALONE_ALC is not enabled by default.

// #define USE_ALONE_ALC

That is, the volume amplitude is controlled by the function i2s_alc_volume_set in i2s_stream.h.

  • After the example starts running, it will automatically process the excessively high amplitude of the audio data. For the related log, please refer to [Example Log](###Example Log).
