You could use CSound: http://www.bright.net/~dlphilp/linux_csound.html The phase vocoder will compress/expand the time axis for you. There's a spinoff of some research we've been doing in Timbre here: http://sculptor.sourceforge.net/sculptor.shtml but these are twiddly little programs written for research purposes and not intended for actual *use*, so don't expect them to be useful (or even work 8-) The CVS is written with GTK, and is out of date (fails to handles interrupts properly due to ana nnoying GTKism). If you are interested I'll email you again when we've finished the patch, but I won't be offended if you aren't 8-) I think Paul was right about syncing 2 soundcards, but not about telling you off for trying. People won't work on open source projects if their told to, they just have to realise it's The Way. So good luck.
