i may be wrong but i think the esound daemon does this, not though in the way you say. i believe, apps send the output of the audio to the daemon and the daemon opens /dev/dsp and outputs it there. any number of apps can talk to the daemon and the daemon can/will output sound from multiple source

I knew about Esound, but I need something that: - Split input (microphone, etc) to multiple processes - Works with existing programs (eg. Quake) This is probably a wishlist item for ALSA, but I was wondering if anyone already knew on a *kernel* patch that does the mixing at the /dev/dsp level.

Multiple accesses to /dev/dsp

1999-10-13 Thread Dwayne C . Litzenberger
Anyone know of a kernel patch that basically lets any number of processes open /dev/dsp any number of times? Basically, a microphone splitter and a speaker mixer in one? I know this would take CPU time, but I'd like to be able to play a RealAudio stream, while hearing the superfluous sounds of KD
