Patrick, thanks for your quick reply. I'm not quite sure whether your answer is really the answer on what I wanted to ask, so I'll clarify below.

I think to make sure that this is really what we need I'll have to provide a better description of the problem. We are developing a testbed for wireless voice transmission. We will have up to 16 active phones, that are independently used to receive voice samples. We have to record each voice transmission to a .WAV file (because this is what the quality measurement tool understands). To do this we will have to connect the 16 phones to a Linux box (prefered) and need the ability to save the voice sample to a file. Each sample is completely independent of all the other samples. Basically we need the ability to do "sox /dev/phonespeakerX phoneXsample.wav" where 0 <= X <= 15. >> Will we have 16 /dev/dsp devices [e.g. /dev/dsp0 .. /dev/dsp16]? >> > >If you use jack you will have an easy to understand interface for >routing the i/o's. Following your suggestion I glanced at jack. I'm not quite sure whether this is really what we are looking for.
