OpenAL

OpenAL (or Open Audio Library) is a utility that provides sound processing in computer entertainment and other multimedia-enabled applications. Essentially, OpenAL is an API tool that works with sound data without restrictions. If you're not a professional sound engineer, this kind of software is fine for you. Having installed Open Audio Library, you will understand the graphical environment without problems, because the functions and tools of the program are understandable even for inexperienced users. This "tool" ensures the launch and full operation of multimedia software.

Usage

At first, OpenAL was developed on a graphical shell, which is designed for programming applications (API). They allow you to "port" games to other "computer" platforms. Now the functions of software have become "wider", so this "library" is used to create games, finalizing audio data.

Capabilities

OpenAL is an "independent" library of tools that can be plugged into games and applications. Creators of new generation games use this "tool" to select sound configurations. Ordinary users can use this software only for launching games. The program can be downloaded for free. The library runs on new builds of OSWindows 7 and above with 32 and 64-bit application structure. The main feature of this sound driver library is working with sound in 3D. OpenAL supports EAX effects processing. Using them, you can customize the echo in the game and remove various defects. This tool was used to create popular games such as Doom 3, Bioshock and Batterfield 2142. If necessary, install this library on your computer. For avid gamers, it is better not to uninstall this component. After uninstalling this application, you may encounter problems (bad sound or game loading errors). This API "engine" is used by Creative, which is a major developer of sound equipment.
