ALSA

Introduction to ALSA

The Linux kernel now provides Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA) support by default. However, applications need to interface to that capability. The following six sections deal with the six separate components of ALSA: the libraries, the plugins, the utilities, the tools, the firmware and the OSS compatibility libraries.

Components of ALSA

• ALSA Library
• ALSA Plugins
• ALSA Utilities
• ALSA Tools
