both for sclang and other apps utilizing scsynth (e.g. eisenkraut), it would be very useful to be able to retrieve a list of possible sound cards for scsynth. Currently, both the windows and mac version list the sound cards, but in different formatting. Also the windows version lists cards along with # of inputs and outputs, while this information is missing on osx. It would be good to have a unified print out that can be easily parsed using a regex, both on windows and mac (linux is less important as scsynth will always(?) use jack).

there are two approaches:

  • scsynths prints this information on every boot (similar to the current behaviour)
  • there is a special command line option to just emit the sound cards list and then quit immediately.

There's now a sclang primitive, currently only implemented for OSX, that can return a list of devices, optionally filtered according to whether they have ins/outs.
