\example passthrough/render.cpp

Audio and analog passthrough: input to output
-----------------------------------------

This sketch demonstrates how to read from and write to the audio and analog input and output buffers.

In `render()` you'll see a nested for loop structure. You'll see this in all Bela projects. 
The first for loop cycles through `audioFrames`, the second through 
`audioChannels` (in this case left 0 and right 1).

You can access any information about current audio and sensor settings you can do the following: 
`context->name_of_item`. For example `context->audioChannels` returns current number of channels,
`context->audioFrames` returns the current number of audio frames, 
`context->audioSampleRate` returns the audio sample rate.

You can look at all the information you can access in ::BelaContext.

Reading and writing from the audio buffers
------------------------------------------

The simplest way to read samples from the audio input buffer is with
`audioRead()` which we pass three arguments: context, current audio 
frame and current channel. In this example we have 
`audioRead(context, n, ch)` where both `n` and `ch` are provided by 
the nested for loop structure.

We can write samples to the audio output buffer in a similar way using 
`audioWrite()`. This has a fourth argument which is the value of the output.
For example `audioWrite(context, n, ch, value_to_output)`.

Reading and writing from the analog buffers
-------------------------------------------

The same is true for `analogRead()` and `analogWrite()`.

Note that for the analog channels we write to and read from the buffers in a separate set 
of nested for loops. This is because the they are sampled at half audio rate by default. 
The first of these for loops cycles through `analogFrames`, the second through
`analogChannels`.

By setting `audioWriteFrame(context, n, ch, audioReadFrame(context, n, ch))` and
`analogWrite(context, n, ch, analogReadFrame(context, n, ch))` we have a simple 
passthrough of audio input to output and analog input to output.


It is also possible to address the buffers directly, for example: 
`context->audioOut[n * context->audioChannels + ch]`.
