hard to handle. The documentation is only useful for writing toy
applications. It seems that you have to be an ALSA developer to
really achieve good performance.

I have a version of the pd alsa part that works with the Hammerfall,
but I was not able to achieve the same performance as with my driver.
Additionally this version shows problems with some cards, so I
surely have done something wrong.

We need someone who is willing to really dig into ALSA, probably by
reusing code from the JACK alsa driver. My motivation for doing that
is pretty low, because for desktop usage I am happy with JACK, and
for performance critical situations and installations I use my own
driver.

Thats the situation. Maybe we can give out a call for help among
the Linux audio developers community, there must be someone who
is wants to contribute to a established system instead of writing
the 200ths software syntesizer.

Well,

Guenter
