Yo
One of m'y main hobbies and interests is music. i play drulms but i also love bass guitars.
i remember when my mate lent me his usb audio mixer... ; connected bass guitar to it, headphones... played some songs i ripped from cds into wav format.. i opened ardour and i was able to hezr what i play on bass and music in the same time... it was so good...
I personally love audio quality here... Alsaplayer + .wav audio files and dexent headphones plays well...
Last week i have recorded some drums using audacity and just mic from thinkpad t500 and here is effect

most people use apple/microsoft stuff cuz theyre too lazy to learn new things to talke whats out there for free... its bettter to pay money instead... and follow schemes other people do.
i am only concerned with alsa being aple to play audio on only single program. when i plzy game wesnoth for exzmple then alsaplzyer wont play sound... i must turn off wesnoth and then play files from alsaplayer... but then theres no sound when i plzy wesnoth ;o
