[Qt-interest] ASIO - or other - sound drivers

Hi,

I'm thinking about adding "audio synthesis" as a bell/whistle on our 
application, we've got some waveform data we visualize, and it might be 
interesting to "hear" the waves as they are shown.

So, I'd like some low latency way of making the waves on the screen 
correspond to what's coming out of the speakers - initially on Windows, 
but a good multi-platform solution is always preferred.  We don't much 
need to "play nicely" with other applications while doing this, it is 
acceptable if we are the only working sound producer.

I found the Steinberg ASIO drivers and they seem like a good choice - 
QSound doesn't look too promising for a smooth running sound experience....

Does anyone have experience doing "nice sound' from within a Qt application?

Are there other sound drivers I should be looking at instead of ASIO?

Thanks,

Mike
