PlayFileLite...CoreAudio...argh!!!

Hey guys,

So, I'm not a big developer, but I like to write my own little utility
applications and have been since before the Mac+...so please read this from
my small perspective.

I've been trying to get my head around all the new CoreAudio stuff and I
have to say that I'm impressed...and incredibly disappointed.

>From what I can tell, CoreAudio is extremely powerful and it's incredible to
have something like this built into the OS. On the other hand, where's the
higher lever stuff?

It's seems to me that you can put together anything you want with few
restrictions, but to play a simple AIFF file takes callback routines, render
routines and is far from trivial. Am I wrong here? Isn't something missing?

I feel like I'm soldering a circuit board together piece by piece just to
play a damn cassette tape.

Thanks for listening to my lame dribblings...

Ray

                  is just the amount of drums."
