Java raw audio output

Just wondering if there is a library in Java like the module PyAudiere in Python, that simply allows you to create tones and play them, like this sample Python code:

device = audiere.open_device()
tone = device.create_tone(500) #create a 500hz tone
tone.play()
tone.stop()

This simply assigns a variable to your default sound device, and then makes a tone for that device and plays it then stops it. Are there any libraries like this that are as simple to use?

I appreciate any and all feedback, thanks! :-D

It is pretty simple to generate a sound in memory.

E.G.

Beeper

The important part of generating the tone (and storing it in a Clip) is encompassed in this code:

/** Generates a tone, and assigns it to the Clip. */
public void generateTone()
    throws LineUnavailableException {
    if ( clip!=null ) {
        clip.stop();
        clip.close();
    } else {
        clip = AudioSystem.getClip();
    }
    boolean addHarmonic = harmonic.isSelected();

    int intSR = ((Integer)sampleRate.getSelectedItem()).intValue();
    int intFPW = framesPerWavelength.getValue();

    float sampleRate = (float)intSR;

    // oddly, the sound does not loop well for less than
    // around 5 or so, wavelengths
    int wavelengths = 20;
    byte[] buf = new byte[2*intFPW*wavelengths];
    AudioFormat af = new AudioFormat(
        sampleRate,
        8,  // sample size in bits
        2,  // channels
        true,  // signed
        false  // bigendian
        );

    int maxVol = 127;
    for(int i=0; i<intFPW*wavelengths; i++){
        double angle = ((float)(i*2)/((float)intFPW))*(Math.PI);
        buf[i*2]=getByteValue(angle);
        if(addHarmonic) {
            buf[(i*2)+1]=getByteValue(2*angle);
        } else {
            buf[(i*2)+1] = buf[i*2];
        }
    }

    try {
        byte[] b = buf;
        AudioInputStream ais = new AudioInputStream(
            new ByteArrayInputStream(b),
            af,
            buf.length/2 );

        clip.open( ais );
    } catch(Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
}

Beeper.java

This is self contained code that shows the GUI seen above. It is a hybrid that will work either as a free floating frame, or embedded as an applet.

import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;

/** Beeper presents a small, loopable tone that can be heard
by clicking on the Code Key.  It uses a Clip to loop the sound,

If you ok with installing additional libs like Xuggler, you can use this shorter way, but it loads an external file - sure, you can also generate the soundpackets on the run. It's an fragment from the tutorials site. http://www.xuggle.com/xuggler/downloads/3.1.final.jsp

IMediaReader reader = ToolFactory.makeReader("Your.MP3");
IMediaViewer viewer = ToolFactory.makeViewer();
reader.addListener(viewer);
while (reader.readPacket() == null)
        ;
