  • libsndfile

    A C library for reading and writing sound files containing sampled audio data.

    • If you intend to integrate also other audio formats, such as FLAC, MP3 or WAV, I recommend the use of libsndfile, which supports all of these formats with a uniform interface.

  • fluidsynth

    Software synthesizer based on the SoundFont 2 specifications

    • For playing MIDI files, I suggest FluidSynth. You can load a sound font into it and then either play back an existing MIDI file or programmatically send MIDI commands to the library.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
