[LAD] "El-Cheapo" software-only equivalent

Hi all, i'm new to this list.
I'd like to ask some advice about a small multitrack recorder program i
wrote, and have been using for some time. Basically, what it does is to:
- simultaneously capture sound from several consumer-grade soundcards.
- use libsamplerate to stretch the audio streams, re-syncing them to the
one chosen as "master". The stretch ratio is continuously re-calculated
to make the overall frame count of the stretched stream match the
overall frame count of the master.
- write the "corrected" streams plus the "master" stream to parallel
.wav files using libsndfile.

The purpose is the same as the quite famous "El-Cheapo Howto" (
http://quicktoots.linuxaudio.org/toots/el-cheapo ), just with no
soldering involved :-)

Of course, i know the solution is far from perfect, but i use it to
record some friends of mine who play in a blues/punk band, and the
result is not that bad.

Now, the question is: do you think this piece of code can be of any
interest for someone out there?
Do you think i should i publish it on an open source repository ? Or
maybe there's already some other software i'm not aware of, that does
the same thing?

thanks for your patience, please excuse my bad english.

bye
alberto
