[Openal] Question about Motu 828mkIII hardware

[Daniel PEACOCK]

Hi Serge,

If you are talking about panning sounds around a 12.2 speaker system that
is being controlled by 2 different soundcards, that is beyond the scope of
all the OpenAL implementations I know of.   OpenAL could be the interface
to control something like this - but you would need a custom OpenAL device
to actually handle the panning and rendering algorithms.

Hi all,

I am really new to audio development and I would like to know something
about OpenAL.

Do you thing OpenAL is well suited to manage sound outputs on a setup like
the following : 1 computer with 2 MOTU 828mkIII sound cards (
http://www.motu.com/products/motuaudio/828mk3/body.html) with 12 speakers
and 2 subwoofers

The idea is to be able to spatialize the sound between all the speakers.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Best regards,

--
