As Olaf already pointed out, JACK and ALSA is very linux specific, but the solution we come up should be crossplatform.
I understand, but I'm mostly interested in using sound applications on Linux that can handle the Unix stdin/out mechanism. Maybe with cygwin it would be possible to do the same on Windows. It would work on MacOSX. Maybe streaming throught stdin/out is a bad idea... Any opinions?
I think we would have to search around the web for existing solutions (like CStream etc.), then take a look at them and decide if we can reuse them.
Cstream is a general purpose streaming tool. We could add translation routines from the streamin/out~ formats to RAW or WAV.
But is there some sort of standard audio streaming protocol out there?
