[linux-audio-dev] which API for best quality output

[TORRI Vincent]

hello

thank you for your advices. Let's go for learning Jack's API. If some 
people have other advices, i will read them carefully !

Another question : is there any other do such that the "audio quality 
howto" ? (about the use of threads in audio prog, like 
http://www.djcj.org/LAU/guide/audio_quality_HOWTO.htm#dropouts))

thanks a lot !
