NAME

       DBMix - Digital Audio Mixing System

SYNOPSIS

       dbcat [options]
       dbfsd [options]
       dbin [options]
       dbmixer

DESCRIPTION

       The  DBMix  system is able to combine sound from various sources into a single audio stream.  Think of it
       as a virtual DJ mixing desk.  Mixing uses a Fourier synthesis algorithm to maintain sound quality in  the
       output stream.

       The  dbfsd  daemon  serves  as  DBMix's  backend--that's  where  most of the real synthesis work is done.
       Several clients allow to connect different  audio  sources  to  the  backend.   dbin  links  line-in,  or
       microphone  input  from the sound card to DBMix.  And there's dbcat, a pretty generic tool that redirects
       its standard input to a dbfsd channel.  Actual DJ work is done using the graphical frontend dbmixer.

       For an in-depth description of each application, see its respective man page.
