Documentation Request for Recording Controls & Waveform Visualization

Hi, I'm currently implementing voice notes using flutter_recorder and need clarification on some core functionalities.

Current Implementation I'm using:

• recorder.setPauseRecording(pause: boolean) for pause/resume
• recorder.getWave() for waveform visualization
• Recording to WAV files with custom paths

Documentation Needed For:

1. Pause & Resume Recording

   • Is setPauseRecording(pause: boolean) the correct approach?
   • Are there any cleanup steps needed when resuming?
   • Does pausing affect the final file output?

2. Waveform Visualization

   • What's the recommended polling frequency for getWave()?
   • What's the format of the wave data (range, number of points)?
   • Are there any performance considerations?

3. Recording Management

   • Best practices for file handling during pause/resume
   • Recommended approach for recording timer implementation
   • Memory management considerations for longer recordings

Use Case Context: Building a voice notes feature that requires:

• Real-time waveform visualization
• Pause/Resume functionality
• Recording duration tracking
• File access for playback/deletion

Documentation Request: Audio Configuration & Recording Features

1. Audio Configuration

   _recorder.init(
    sampleRate: 44100,
    channels: RecorderChannels.stereo,
    format: PCMFormat.f32le,
   );

   • What are the recommended configuration settings for voice recording?
   • How to configure audio context for optimal voice recording quality?
   • Can we configure similar audio settings as shown below for the recorder?

     // Current player configuration - need equivalent for recorder
     await setAudioContext(AudioContext(
     android: AudioContextAndroid(
     contentType: AndroidContentType.speech,
     usageType: AndroidUsageType.media,
     audioFocus: AndroidAudioFocus.none,
     audioMode: AndroidAudioMode.normal,
     ),
     iOS: AudioContextIOS(
     category: AVAudioSessionCategory.playAndRecord,
     options: {
      AVAudioSessionOptions.defaultToSpeaker,
      AVAudioSessionOptions.allowBluetooth,
      AVAudioSessionOptions.allowBluetoothA2DP,
      AVAudioSessionOptions.mixWithOthers,
     },
     ),
     ));

2. Feature Requirements

   • How to configure audio quality settings (bitrate, encoding)?
   • Best practices for handling bluetooth/headphone routing?
   • How to ensure optimal performance for:
     • Background recording
     • Long duration recordings
     • Pause/resume functionality

3. Platform-Specific Considerations

   • Are there different configurations needed for iOS vs Android?
   • How to handle audio session interruptions?
   • Best practices for permission handling?

Would greatly appreciate examples or documentation covering these scenarios. Thank you!
