libsoundio

C library which provides cross-platform audio input and output. The API is suitable for real-time software such as digital audio workstations as well as consumer software such as music players.

How It Works

On Linux, libsoundio tries in order: JACK, PulseAudio, ALSA, Dummy. On OSX, libsoundio tries in order: JACK, PulseAudio, CoreAudio, Dummy. On Windows, libsoundio tries in order: ASIO, DirectSound, Dummy. On BSD, libsoundio tries in order: JACK, PulseAudio, OSS, Dummy.

Roadmap

  • Dummy (all)
  • PulseAudio (Linux, OSX)
  • ALSA (Linux)
  • JACK (Linux, OSX)
  • CoreAudio (OSX)
  • DirectSound (Windows)
  • ASIO (Windows)
  • OSS (BSD)
