PortAudio是一个免费的、跨平台的、开放源码的音频I/O库。它可以让你用C或C++来编译并在多种平台能够运行的简单音频程序，包括Windows、Macintosh OS X和UNIX（OSS / ALSA）。它旨在促进不同平台上开发人员之间的音频软件融合。许多应用程序已经使用PortAudio库进行音频I/O处理。

PortAudio provides a very simple API for recording and/or playing sound using a simple callback function or a blocking read/write interface. Example programs are included that play sine waves, process audio input (guitar fuzz), record and playback audio, list available audio devices, etc.
