alternative sound libraries

Guys, was doing some research on similar projects and it seems the vast majority of music related programs using reactivision use sonia:

"Sonia is an external Library (API) for the Processing platform. It may also be included in any Java project.

The Sonia Library provides advanced audio capabilities such as multiple sample playback, realtime sound synthesis, realtime FFT (frequency) analysis of the microphone input, and writing .wav files from samples."

There was also the use of ESS sound library incorporated with sonia.

Just wanted to share this as there might be some elements in this that we might want to look into if minim poses some sort of limitation.

Thanks,

    noted..from what i understood sonia and minim are pretty similar.

    As far as I can see minim's done everything we needed it to, and I think Maria's managed to link the Minim buffers to images for GUI.

    All that's left is linking minim buffers and volume up/down controls to fiducials =)
