Playing an arbitrary tone with Android

Question

Is there any way to make Android emit a sound of arbitrary frequency (meaning, I don\'t want to have pre-recorded sound files)?

I\'ve looked around and ToneGenerator

Answer 1

    float synth_frequency = 440;
    int minSize = AudioTrack.getMinBufferSize(SAMPLE_RATE,
AudioFormat.CHANNEL_OUT_MONO,
AudioFormat.ENCODING_PCM_16BIT);
AudioTrack audioTrack = new AudioTrack(AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC,
SAMPLE_RATE,
AudioFormat.CHANNEL_OUT_MONO,
AudioFormat.ENCODING_PCM_16BIT,
minSize,
AudioTrack.MODE_STREAM);
audioTrack.play();
short[] buffer = new short[minSize];
float angle = 0;
while (true) 
{
    if (play)
    {
        for (int i = 0; i < buffer.length; i++)
        {
            float angular_frequency =
            (float)(2*Math.PI) * synth_frequency / SAMPLE_RATE;
            buffer[i] = (short)(Short.MAX_VALUE * ((float) Math.sin(angle)));
            angle += angular_frequency;
    }
        audioTrack.write(buffer, 0, buffer.length);
    } 

// You can add arbitrary value in synth_frequency to get change sound for example you can add random variable to get sound
