[edit] Fit into Category:Music software plugin architectures?

Hello! Can anybody in the know tell me if Windows audio components/DirectSound, apart from its regular usage in games, is used by Music software applications, like sequencers and DAW to add sofware synthesizers and software effects to audio tracks? Which ones? Thanks :-) Peter S. 17:16, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

  1. I believe they are. Adding cat. Cwolfsheep 18:03, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
    • Have you got an example url of a DAW or a plugin manufacturer that uses it? Peter S. 21:21, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
    • Not handy. The closest I get to editing is using VirtualDub & Audacity: there are some "DirectSound" or "DirectShow" filters used.

[edit] ACM vs. DirectShow

Why are there both ACM filters and DirectShow filters, and what's better? For example, there are both ACM and DirectShow filters for the LAME MP3 codec at http://www.rarewares.org/mp3.html. --Abdull 22:47, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
