Hi Davy, Personally, I would still use DirectSound 9, and wait for Microsoft to get the bugs worked out of XAudio, Xac, and XInput. The technologies are new, primarily for XBox developers, and many of the bug fixes between Auggust 2007 and November 2007 relate directly to those libraries so they are not what ai would consider production quality yet. Think about it a moment. DirectInput, DirectSound, etc are at version 9 and the XBox libraries is at version 2. Hmmm... Which one is likely to be the more stable choice here? I think as far as USA Games is conserned, now that I got the bomb shell of MDX going south, I will convert my code to support the DirectX 9 com components.
