Hi!
I want to programme my mic and my speakers on my FC2 box. I am running
KDE. Is there a library which I should look at or is the ALSA API the way
to go?
Thanks,
Catalin

ALSA. If you want to tie yourself to KDE and endless misery, try artsd,
but I warned you.

Please pardon the short tone of my previous email - I thought I was
replying to my local LUG where I'm known to advocate ALSA and people are
known to ignore me. :-) On this list you probably deserve a more
in-depth answer. I still recommend ALSA.

Depending on the application you may find jack appropriate. Is easier to
write code for than ALSA, in my experience.

Agreed. Although jack is harder for the user to use, but well worth it
in many, but not all applications. Hopefully this will continue to
improve over time.

I'd agree with this - I jumped straight from oss to jack. Depending on what
you're doing, it's usually better to use a callback model if possible.
Portaudio's also a good choice, as it's cross platform.

If you need simple and functional code you should try RtAudio
( http://www.music.mcgill.ca/~gary/rtaudio/ ) which can handle multiple APIs
(as PortAudio does: ALSA, OSS, Jack, Mac CoreAudio, Win DS and ASIO) in a
very simple way. You can switch between blocking mode or callback one.
PortAudio is maybe an equivalent choise except for the fact that it is in
development in the more interesting release (v19. v18 does not support ALSA
and Jack).
Cheers,

ALSA is low-level, provides direct access to the hardware, is difficult
to program.
JACK is high-level, provides a simple yet efficient way to program, but
it's not commonly used (outside specialised Linux-based multimedia
systems).
arts will become obsolete in a not so distant future.
Here's a nice tutorial:
