BASSMOD v1.5
BASS is a sound system for use in Windows software. It's purpose is to provide developers with a set of powerful yet easy to use sample, stream (MP3, MP2, MP1, OGG, WAV, custom generated), MOD music (XM, IT, S3M, MOD, MTM, UMX), MO3 music (MP3/OGG compressed MODs), audio CD, and recording functions. BASS also allows 3D positioning of samples, streams and MOD musics, and supports EAX (Environmental Audio eXtensions).

BASS requires DirectX 3 or above, and takes advantage of DirectSound and DirectSound3D hardware accelerated drivers, and MMX CPUs. But it is also functional without these performance enhancers. C/C++, Visual Basic, Delphi (static and dynamic-loading), MASM and TMT Pascal APIs are provided, with several examples to get you started.

I must say all of those are great components to base your DLL on. Thanks for doing all the great research, Marty, well done!
