I think the sound-card stuff should be well
encapsulated and kept entirely separate from
the functions that are in my program (which
are user functions for feedback like
setting threshholds, seeing graphs, hearing
feedback tones, etc.)

The architecture that occurs to me is a
separate chunk of code that contains two
internal levels of encapsulation. The higher-
level part would handle general sound-card
stuff (stuff that is common to all sound cards).
The lower-level portion would be a sound card
driver that is particular to the sound card.

I don't know whether it would make sense to
make either part OS-portable.

That module (assuming Windows) could be a
VDX or a DLL or a separate program. It would
incorporate a narrow interface through which it
is called by a program like mine. The modifications
to my program would be trivial.
