- Classes in javax.sound.sampled used by javax.sound.sampled
  Class and Description
  AudioFileFormat An instance of the `AudioFileFormat` class describes an audio file, including the file type, the file's length in bytes, the length in sample frames of the audio data contained in the file, and the format of the audio data.
  AudioFileFormat.Type An instance of the `Type` class represents one of the standard types of audio file.
  AudioFormat `AudioFormat` is the class that specifies a particular arrangement of data in a sound stream.
  AudioFormat.Encoding The `Encoding` class names the specific type of data representation used for an audio stream.
  AudioInputStream An audio input stream is an input stream with a specified audio format and length.
  BooleanControl.Type An instance of the `BooleanControl.Type` class identifies one kind of boolean control.
  Clip The `Clip` interface represents a special kind of data line whose audio data can be loaded prior to playback, instead of being streamed in real time.
  CompoundControl.Type An instance of the `CompoundControl.Type` inner class identifies one kind of compound control.
  Control `Lines` often have a set of controls, such as gain and pan, that affect the audio signal passing through the line.
  Control.Type An instance of the `Type` class represents the type of the control.
  DataLine `DataLine` adds media-related functionality to its superinterface, ``Line``.
  EnumControl.Type An instance of the `EnumControl.Type` inner class identifies one kind of enumerated control.
  FloatControl.Type An instance of the `FloatControl.Type` inner class identifies one kind of float control.
  Line The `Line` interface represents a mono or multi-channel audio feed.
  Line.Info A `Line.Info` object contains information about a line.
  LineEvent The `LineEvent` class encapsulates information that a line sends its listeners whenever the line opens, closes, starts, or stops.
  LineEvent.Type The LineEvent.Type inner class identifies what kind of event occurred on a line.
  LineListener Instances of classes that implement the `LineListener` interface can register to receive events when a line's status changes.
  LineUnavailableException A `LineUnavailableException` is an exception indicating that a line cannot be opened because it is unavailable.
  Mixer A mixer is an audio device with one or more lines.
  Mixer.Info The `Mixer.Info` class represents information about an audio mixer, including the product's name, version, and vendor, along with a textual description.
  Port.Info The `Port.Info` class extends ``Line.Info`` with additional information specific to ports, including the port's name and whether it is a source or a target for its mixer.
  SourceDataLine A source data line is a data line to which data may be written.
  TargetDataLine A target data line is a type of ``DataLine`` from which audio data can be read.
  UnsupportedAudioFileException An `UnsupportedAudioFileException` is an exception indicating that an operation failed because a file did not contain valid data of a recognized file type and format.
