I've been playing around with openal on and off, and have a module thats around 90% tested, which I'll post when/if I finish it. (I'll probly wrap it in user friendly oop first)
My main problem so far with OpenAL is it seems to load some wav files but not others (using alut so its not my fault ;) ).
I'm torn between OpenAL/DirectSound and FMODex, and I can't make up my mind what to use, FMODex has alot of funtionality but will be expensive, DirectSound is DAMN FAST (I was writing a mod tracker for fun with purebasic and directsound managed to play it realtime :)) but it's not cross platform, and I've just started playing with OpenAL so I'll see how that performs.
