[LAD] linux audio in live performance

Hi List, I had one more question, if you'd bear with me...this is a different question from the last one. I play an instrument called the jaw harp, which is played in this video(not me!): http://in.youtube.com/watch?v=rDdG97MesZM Now I would like to feed this live audio into my box, do a bit of morphing on the sound and have that play in real-time output. It might even trigger some other sample from a C/C++ program. I don't want to use one of the audio programming languages like pd, Chuck, SC, Csound etc. I want to build my own system using linux audio native capabilities. . In your general opinion with C/C++ as the language, what other configuration would be suitable? As in I/O device (OSS/Jack/Alsa/PortAudio/) and which audio library..... -- sincerely, ------- -.- 1/f ))) --. ------- ... http://www.algomantra.com
