This page will attempt to cover most aspects of USB sound, and other aspects of audio playback/recording as well. Mainly so that the information, or links to the information, can be found in one place.
At the moment the page is a bit of a mess, but hopefully we will eventually get a clearer picture of the state of the USB sound support.
The ROSS document covers a lot of subjects.
Jim Lesurf has a number of pages related to USB audio:
USBrecording
usbdetails
HighQualityADCs
David Higton has a document describing a proposed API for the USBaudio module:
USBaudio
A bit about sound system volume
Jim Lesurf, Colin Granville and David Higton have written a number of programs for playing and recording sound using USB devices.
These are available from Jim’s website
