I've been testing Csound5 which supports PortAudio (among other audio systems). IMO it's a great solution as a cross-platform audio system, but it works best with a native backend (ALSA, ASIO). Audio latency in Csound is negligible when I use PortAudio with its ALSA backend, not so good when I use PortAudio's direct interface. Csound5 has also recently integrated PortMIDI. Amazing work coming from Istvan Varga on Csound5 these days. JACK support is here ! :) Best, dp
