[LAU] A survey if you don't mind - results

[Carlos sanchiavedraz]

Great Will, I'm sure this information is valuable in many ways, at least to
take the pulse of the situation nowadays.

> OK final results. I've had to make the following adjustments to the
> figures.
>
> One respondent entered 'both' in the 'other' category so I've subtracted
> them
> from that and added them in the 'either' group.
>
> Another respondent gave hardware names for both source and destination, so
> I
> think they rather missed the point, and I took them out of the totals.
>
> In order to then get a nice easy figure of 100, I asked a friend who hadn't
> taken part, and he came down firmly in the 'either' camp.
>
> There was a non respondent on the MIDI question so I've lumped them in
> with the
> 'other' crowd as a 'no MIDI'.
>
> So we have:
>
> Audio
> ALSA    6%
> JACK   74%
> Either 18%
> Other   2% (both referring to Alsa, Jack and Pulse)
>
>
> MIDI
> ALSA   23%
> JACK   26%
> Either 44%
> Other   7% ( 6 didn't use MIDI and the 7th mentioned a2j)
>
>
> From this I think we can conclude that direct use of ALSA is far from dead
> yet,
> and for MIDI it's neck and neck with jack. I hope this will be useful to

> If I can remember, I might try this again in a years time.

> Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
