Nice, many months ago this was a pain in the butt to find older versions. 😀

DosFreak: I hope it is okay. That I am sharing the links else where, or at least some of them. And also I do give credit, when I am "stealing" your links at the other place. So I am not a thief , per se. But on the contrary I am sharing the caring of it.

OpenAL Soft
http://kcat.strangesoft.net/openal.html

Overview […]
Show full quote

Overview

OpenAL Soft is an LGPL-licensed, cross-platform, software implementation of the OpenAL 3D audio API. It's forked from the open-sourced Windows version available originally from the SVN repository at openal.org.
OpenAL provides capabilities for playing audio in a virtual 3D environment. Distance attenuation, doppler shift, and directional sound emitters are among the features handled by the API. More advanced effects, including air absorption, occlusion, and environmental reverb, are available through the EFX extension. It also facilitates streaming audio, multi-channel buffers, and audio capture.

About This Project

This library is a compatible update/replacement to the deprecated OpenAL Sample Implementation (the SI). The original idea was to fork the old Windows version to attempt an accelerated ALSA version. The accelerated ALSA idea quickly fell through, but the software mixing code ended up being modified to be cross-platform, with multiple output backends: ALSA, OSS, DirectSound, PulseAudio, MMDevAPI, CoreAudio, Solaris, SoundIO, WinMM, PortAudio, "Null" Output, and a .wav writer are currently implemented.

OpenAL Soft's code has been improved to support mono, stereo, 4-channel, 5.1, 6.1, and 7.1 output. OpenAL Soft does not support the Vorbis and MP3 extensions, however these are considered deprecated. It does, though, support some of the newer extensions like AL_EXT_FLOAT32 and AL_EXT_MCFORMATS for multi-channel and floating-point formats, as well as ALC_EXT_EFX for environmental audio effects, and others.
