RtAudio significantly simplifies the process of interacting with computer audio hardware. It was designed with the following objectives: @@ -24,12 +26,12 @@ RtAudio is a set of C++ classes that provides a common API (Application Programm RtAudio incorporates the concept of audio streams, which represent audio output (playback) and/or input (recording). Available audio devices and their capabilities can be enumerated and then specified when opening a stream. Where applicable, multiple API support can be compiled and a particular API specified when creating an RtAudio instance. See the \ref apinotes section for information specific to each of the supported audio APIs. -FURTHER READING: +## Further Reading For complete documentation on RtAudio, see the doc directory of the distribution or surf to http://www.music.mcgill.ca/~gary/rtaudio/. -LEGAL AND ETHICAL: +## Legal and ethical: The RtAudio license is similar to the MIT License. |
