Wave FIles

[manjuk]

I'm looking to read in ,wav files from my computer and output them through a DAQmx board. I know I could do more if I don't rely on express VIs, but I was just wondering if there was any way I could still use the DAQ Assistant express VI for outputting the .wav files. I don't think so because .wav isn't one of the options for the file type, I just thought I'd ask anyway. Thank you

Did you do a search? As described in the recent post at http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/How-do-I-write-a-wav-file-to-analog-output/m-p/2929736/highlight/tru... you use the Sound File Read. This returns a waveform data type which can be converted to the evil dynamic data type.
