Great! :-) I have just got a SB PCI 128 (will try to install it under Linux
now).
I am working on a new sound program for Linux/Windows. It will support as
many channels as your card can handle. However I haven't yet started to go
into sound i/o programming (still have to get the soundcard work). How are
multi-channel soundcards handled with ALSA?
And, (generally) where can I find a good programming documentation for ALSA?
