Hi Mick.

The general idea is to combine a RPI and a USB sound module the same
way we can use a computer and a sound module, but specialized as a
multichannel player. The RPI can be replaced with many ARM based
computer, including phones and tablets. The advantage of using a USB
sound module is that the driver is the same for most (if not all) of
them. The disadvantage is a higher cost than a dedicated/embedded sound
chip, but for DIY/prototyping, I think it's the easiest way.

I don't know how feasible this project is; there are limits in terms
of channels, performance and quality. It requires Linux and/or Android
development skills, time and patience...
