RtAudio is a set of C++ classes that provide a common API (Application Programming Interface) for realtime audio input and output across Linux, Macintosh OS-X and Windows operating systems. RtAudio significantly simplifies the process of interacting with computer audio hardware.

It was designed with the following objectives:

• object-oriented C++ design
• simple, common API across all supported platforms
• only one source and one header file for easy inclusion in programming projects
• allow simultaneous multi-api support
• support dynamic connection of devices
• provide extensive audio device parameter control
• allow audio device capability probing
• automatic internal conversion for data format, channel number compensation, (de)interleaving, and byte-swapping

RtAudio incorporates the concept of audio streams, which represent audio output (playback) and input (recording). Available audio devices and their capabilities can be enumerated and then specified when opening a stream. Where applicable, multiple API support can be compiled and a particular API specified when creating an RtAudio instance.
