Audorra - Digital 3d audio library

Audorra is a digital audio library for Delphi and Freepascal. Using a flexible plugin architecture, it allows you to exchange the audio backend (e.g. WaveOut, OpenAL, libao), add protocol classes (e.g. file, http) and audio decoders.

Audorra is meant to be an addition to my 2d graphics engine Andorra 2D (http://andorra.sf.net/) and my FFMpeg-Wrapper solution Acinerella (http://acinerella.sf.net/). Distinct from solutions like BASS or FMOD Audorra is Opensource, licensed under the MPL.

It contains an efficient 3d audio software renderer, which allows you to position audio sources in a 3d environment.

These are the most striking features of Audorra:

Modularity
Support for multichannel audio
3D audio renderer
Support for many audio formats when using Acinerella
Support for HTTP streams using a modified version of Synapse
Analyzers (FFT, Oscilloscope, Peakmeter)
CD-Audio support
Cross platform


The current version might be found here:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/audorra/files/

The documentation (which is about to grow) can be found here:
https://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/andorracommons/index.php?title=Audorra

Please remember that the current release (Version 0.5.0) is marked as BETA and my contain critical bugs. Also keep in mind that the interface is about to change until Version 1.0 is reached.

In the upcoming versions the 3D audio renderer will be improved.

More information may be found on the Audorra website:

I hope that someone might find this project useful,
Andreas

You are a legend my friend, a legend!

I've been toying with the idea of working on a music sequencer using my VFA GUI (see my previous post) are you planning on working on any MIDI interface at all?

if you're interested I've created header translations for JackD and LashD in linux

Actually a midi/tracker interface has not been planned. Audorra is focused on wave data and not on high level music, though integrating a midi renderer/interface to a sequencer is no problem.
