### **This project has been abandoned. If anyone wants to take this over, please let me know!**
If you want to connect to audio and MIDI devices in Rust, check out [cpal](https://crates.io/crates/cpal), [midi-control](https://crates.io/crates/midi-control), [tinyaudio](https://crates.io/crates/tinyaudio), and/or [miniaudio](https://crates.io/crates/om-fork-miniaudio) instead.
---
A cross-platform, highly configurable, low-latency, and robust solution for connecting to audio and MIDI devices.
> This crate is experimental and a work in progress. It is not yet ready for any kind of production use.

> - "Single Audio Device" means the ability to connect to a single audio device. This audio device can be input-only, output-only, or natively duplex (i.e. an audio interface with both microphone inputs and speaker outputs). "Multiple Audio Devices" means the ability to connect to a separate input and output audio device and then syncing them together in software.
> - \* WASAPI makes it tricky to sync multiple audio devices together without adding a lot of extra latency, which is why it's not currently on the roadmap. However, we may add support for this if there is enough demand for it.
> - ** The Pulseaudio and ALSA backends may prove to be unecessary in the advent of Pipewire.
