I did not find the one that compared OSS with ALSA, but I will keep looking. I did find your 2006 article about sound and wine, and will peruse that. I have a particular and narrow-focused interest. I run Dragon NaturallySpeaking under wine. Wine right now is having difficulty running alsa without freezing and only runs in oss-emulation. For wine users, oss may be a good choice, especially for me personally, because DNS/wine is the only sound application I use, and latency and sound quality are of extreme importance.

Please everybody: Stop the OSSv4-madness. The Linux-Soundsystem is ALSA. It is this for about 5 years now. So be it. 4front has had their chance, they blew it. Alsa may have its flaws but these can be fixed with a fraction of the effort that would arise if a major distro like UBUNTU would start to cope with OSS4. To comment the article mentioned above: The author shows complete ignorance in the the field of productive audio on Linux. - - He does not mention jack and does not even answer the answering posts to his article refering to jack - I have the strong feeling, he never used it/ might not know it at all. - - Asked about the ridiculous primitive MIDI-capabilities of OSS he produces TiMididty, saying it would be great to "play MIDI-Files as PCM-Streams"... Did he ever seen a MIDI-keyboard connected to a computer? Does he know, what a sequencer would be? best regs HZN p.s.: it would be indeed wonderful, if Ubuntu would have an install-option for a supported, recent, full-fledged, stable RT-kernel, that works out of the box and handles hi-class hardware such as firewire-soundcards as good as other Linux-Distros do. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAko+wTwACgkQ1Aecwva1SWMpFgCfQxgck10hu7An+kSLfCD+dlid BAEAn0ZVrAW2Pw8NxwGM/oK5WFYQ7U9Z =Yia0 -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- Ubuntu-Studio-users mailing list Ubuntu-Studio-users@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-users
