11.Compound Audio Object
The Global Tuning Tool allows you to combine audio objects into a single large component that can be reused. This is known as a compound audio object.
By grouping audio objects into CAO, designers can keep their signal flow elegant. Complex reusable audio objects and their connections can be saved as CAOs, allowing for faster signal flow generation when using these CAOs.
CAO stands for Compound Audio Objects.
Device will not know anything about Compound Audio Object. When the user sends signal flow to the device, GTT will scan the signal flow and replace Compound Audio Objects with the inner basic objects. It will establish all the connections so that when the signal flow reaches the device, it is expanded. This will ensure no further implementation is needed on the device to process CAO.
GTT has the ability to identify the author of a CAO, which will be provided to access the features such as editing and exporting. The compound audio object also allows for versioning, enabling authors to keep track of the different versions of CAOs they have created. GTT can validate the version of the CAO used in the signal flow.
It is carefully considered to bundle them in a project file (.gttd), so that CAO present in the signal flow can be exported and imported. GTT provides the majority of the existing CAO interfaces, so you will have no difficulty learning to create CAO.
