Change the bit depth of PCM samples.

Install

npm install bitdepth

Use

Node

const changeBitDepth = require("bitdepth").changeBitDepth;
// The params, in order:
// - the original sample array
// - the original bit depth
// - the output array for the new samples
// - the target bit depth
changeBitDepth(originalArray, "32f", outputArray, "16");

The outputArray must be a typed array.

Browser

Use the bitdepth.js file in the /dist folder:

<script src="bitdepth.js"></script>
<script>
	bitdepth.changeBitDepth(originalArray, "32f", outputArray, "16");
</script>

Or get it from the jsDelivr CDN:

<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/bitdepth"></script>

Or get it from unpkg:

<script src="https://unpkg.com/bitdepth"></script>

Bit depth codes

The params informing the original and target bit depths are strings representing the bit depth code. Their values can be:

• A string representing any integer from "8" to "53" (integer samples)
• "32f" for 32 bit floating-point
• "64" for 64 bit floating-point

Range of the samples

This lib is inteded to be used with PCM data. Note that:

• 8-bit samples range from 0 to 255 (unsigned)
• Other integers are all signed
• 32 fp and 64 range from -1 to 1

Dithering

This lib does not apply any dither to the samples.
