Hello Marc,

Thanks for your patience. I was trying to write an audio recorder and player 
that would create and play two language audio on a quad audio card. To that 
end, I was trying to replace the WaveFormatEx section of the DirectSound 
BufferDescription with a WaveFormatExtensible structure thinking I needed 3D 
sound (one language from the front speakers and the other from the back 
speakers).

After some more studying, it turns out I don't have to go this route. I was 
able accomplish my task with a single stereo channel (English audio on the 
right channel and French audio on the left channel) using Managed 
DirectSound. I simply record each language in stereo and play both files 
back simultaneously. On playback, the player configures the English stream 
(right channel) to have the left channel volume set to 0 whereas the French 
stream (left channel) has the right channel volume set to 0. The outcome is 
one language on one side and the second language on the other.

Again, thanks for your patience and help. I am closing this thread but will 
be opening another on text to speech.

Regards...

Joe Gabriele
