I'm currently working on a small school project called LAAGA, which started sometime last spring (eca.cx/laaga). ;) Now, considering that I haven't had much time to work on it, it's somewhat odd that it's mentioned on goddamn 'Macworld daily news'!!? Even more peculiar, as I haven't actually finished anything concrete yet, it's odd that my project is providing comparable performance. ;) PS Be sure to check the whole(real?) story at linuxdj.com/audio/lad and/or eca.cx/laaga ... I don't want to take credit from those who actually did the work. PPS The Linux Audio Application Glue API mentioned above was actually renamed to JACK a few weeks ago. LAAGA is still used to describe the concept, but JACK's the real thing. And a very groovy name it is... "Think you know pro-audio on Linux? You don't know JACK!" :) -- http://www.eca.cx Audio software for Linux!
