irrKlang is a powerful high level API for playing back sound in 3D and 2D applications like games, scientific visualizations and multimedia applications. irrKlang is free for non commercial use. There is also an advanced version of irrKlang named 'irrKlang pro' which can be purchased for a small license fee and may be used in commercial products.
I wrote a Sound Engine plugin using
irrKlang SDK.
You can play stereo sounds similar to the
media_play function, but without audible delay at the beginning or every loop repetition.
I use the Pro hobbyist version of irrKlang SDK and I'll sell my irrKlangA8.dll plugin for ~20 €, of course you need also the same pro license, details
here.
