Here's so
The Raspberry PI is really cheap and runs Linux, so it does provide some real possibilities, though
it is, in some ways, quite limited - max 256m ram at present, for instance - and documentation is
currently not really in a "this is how you do it" state

I do appreciate polemic, as long as it st
The snd_bcm2835 driver is for the integrated stereo sound module.
For more channels, a cheap 8 channels USB sound module would probably
work, and ALSA drivers for many sound modules are stable.

They could update their system to 3D audio.

Included with Realiser; also available separately for dual users,
replacement, etc. (A single set-top unit is sufficient for dual users.)

Could be cheaper for a CE

Re dynamic range of orchestras.
For recording one needs more than CD standard 16 bits because
one never knows when some instantanteous peak may stick
way out and clip nastily if one does not have a lot of headroom.
Thank goodness for 24 bits!
But seriously, no orchestral music really has more th

Lest I sound too would-be definitive, I should add
that in actuality there are now concert halls with noise
levels at the threshold of human hearing, at least
when they are empty. Since an orchestra at close range
can reach 100dB and then some(though out in the hall
the level is much lower), this
