# SDL_GetCurrentAudioDriver

Get the name of the current audio driver.

## Header File

Defined in [<SDL3/SDL_audio.h>](https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL/blob/main/include/SDL3/SDL_audio.h)

## Syntax

```c
const char * SDL_GetCurrentAudioDriver(void);
```

## Return Value

(const char *) Returns the name of the current audio driver or NULL if no
driver has been initialized.

## Remarks

The names of drivers are all simple, low-ASCII identifiers, like "alsa",
"coreaudio" or "wasapi". These never have Unicode characters, and are not
meant to be proper names.
