PortAudio is a portable audio I/O library designed for cross-platform
|
||
|
|
support of audio. It uses a callback mechanism to request audio processing.
|
||
|
|
Audio can be generated in various formats, including 32 bit floating point,
|
||
|
|
and will be converted to the native format internally.
