1.1 Welcome

Welcome to the exciting world of digital audio! MIDAS Digital Audio System is the most comprehensive cross-platform digital audio system today. With features such as an unlimited number of digital channels on all supported platforms, simultaneous sample, module and stream playback, and seamless portability across operating systems, MIDAS is all you need for perfect sound in your applications.

This manual is the Programmer's Guide to the MIDAS Digital Audio System. It includes descriptions about all aspects of MIDAS, including initialization, configuration and usage of different system components. It does not attempt to document all functions and data structures available in MIDAS, but rather give a good overview on how you can use MIDAS in your own programs. For complete descriptions of all function and data structures, see the MIDAS API reference.
