- Classes in javax.sound.sampled used by javax.sound.sampled
  Class | 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.
