Roc is a toolkit for real-time audio streaming over the network.
You can read about the project here:
The toolkit consists of a C library and a set of command-line tools.
Key features:
- real-time streaming with guaranteed latency;
- restoring lost packets using Forward Erasure Correction codes;
- converting between the sender and receiver clock domains;
- CD-quality audio;
- multiple profiles for different CPU and latency requirements;
- portability;
- relying on open, standard protocols.
Roc Streaming ecosystem also includes numerous projects built on top of Roc Toolkit:
- language bindings (Go, Java)
- sound server modules (PipeWire, PulseAudio, macOS CoreAudio)
- end-user applications
Documentation for the latest release is available here.
Additionally, there is also Doxygen-generated documentation for internal modules.
