Depends on the card. Some cards like my ens1371 based card have more than one playback device in which case you can do the routing via OpenAl. Or you can use ALSA's software mixing module called dmix. Or you can try artsdsp. This is one area that MS get it right. WinXP uses DirectSound software mixing by default so it's a lot less trouble for Windows users. Hopefully Linux will get it right some day but arts and the like haven't been doing too well. (bad performance and buggy). Of course if you have one of those nice emu10k based cards you can ignore all my advice - plug it in and it'll do the mixing in hardware automatically to one playback device. Cheap hardware and standards ... sigh. Paul ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Do you grep through log files for problems? Stop!
