[audio] Call for an updated enhanced quicktime audio library or a small audio complementary library!

[René Micout]

Robert
I am very interested in your requests, myself repeatedly mentioned the lack of Runrev about Audio.
Thatt interests me most is related functions "Midi", ie to create sounds directly from RunRev for them to be "played" by the QuickTime synthesizer (or other ...).
Unfortunately I have not the skills required to create these functions.
I just did a search in Gmane (Midi / audio), the results are "1893" results for "Audio" and "527" for "south" I think many RevTalker are interested in the subject.

Robert,
Je suis très intéressé par vos demandes, ayant, moi-même à de nombreuses reprises évoqué les manques de Runrev en matière d'Audio.
Pour ce qui me concerne, ce qui m'intéresse le plus ce sont des fonctions liées au "Midi", c'est à dire pouvoir créer des sons directement depuis RunRev pour qu'ils soient "joués" par le synthétiseur QuickTime (ou autre...).
Je n'ai malheureusement pas non plus les compétences requises pour créer ces fonctions.
Je viens de faire une recherche dans GMane (Midi/audio), les résultats sont 1893 résultats pour "Audio" et "527" pour "Midi", je pense que beaucoup de RevTalker sont intéressés par le sujet.
