Really interesting....

I'm wondering how your code could replace the "adapter" mechanism that I did in JACK2 for that never worked fully reliably. Basically the "adapter" idea is a bit more general in the sense that it aims at "adapting" streams in different context: like network <==> Audio API (CoreAudio for OSX, ALSA for Linux, PortAudio for Windows...), or several ALSA devices..etc..
(The adapters are also developed as "in server" clients, this make a bit more easy to add them in a running session using "ladish" kind of studio management approaches...)

How complex do you think it would be?

Thanks.

Stéphane
