[SLUG] Full Duplex Sound
Anyone know of a sound app that will let me record something and play it back at the same time so that I can monitor it? -- John The difference between a good man and a bad one is the choice of cause - William James -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://slug.org.au/lists/listinfo/slug

May be a bit overkill depending on what you're doing, but I've found Broadcast2000 http://freshmeat.net/projects/broadcast2000/ to be the best app for all types of audio editing. -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://slug.org.au/lists/listinfo/slug

You should keep in mind that most of the standard Linux drivers cannot do full duplex. Esound and esd provide a work-around. Another option is to use full-duplex drivers like ALSA (http://www.alsa-project.org).

Does anyone know what the deal is with the sound drivers in the kernel? The so-called Open Sound System is far from open, and ALSA seems to do much better than OSS. I'm wondering if anyone knows of any plans to scrap OSS and replace it with ALSA, or if ALSA will remain a separate module. -- "This is not an attack! It is a pre-emptive retaliation."

Re: [SLUG] Full Duplex Sound
Whats in the kernel is OSS/Free which is like a clone of OSS i think in GPL as OSS is on like a gazillion OS's... well maybe a handful. Its a standard (kinda). ALSA was spawned from drivers written for a card (name eludes me) to exploit its potential more fully. ALSA isnt a kernel patch. I dont know how portable it is (architecture wise) and items only go into the kernel if they are submitted for syncing. If the ALSA team hasnt sent a patch then i dont see it going in. I was going to say alsa has a whole lot of utils and libs but then i realized so does networking, filesystems,oss,video4linux and just about everything else.
