.SH DESCRIPTION
The \fBDBMix\fP system is able to combine sound from various sources into a
single audio stream.  Think of it as a virtual DJ mixing desk.  Mixing uses
a Fourier synthesis algorithm to maintain sound quality in the output stream.
.PP
The \fBdbfsd\fP daemon serves as \fBDBMix\fP's backend--that's where most of
the real synthesis work is done.  Several clients allow to connect different
audio sources to the backend.  \fBdbin\fP links line-in, or microphone input
from the sound card to \fBDBMix\fP.  And there's \fBdbcat\fP, a pretty generic
tool that redirects its standard input to a \fBdbfsd\fP channel.
Actual DJ work is done using the graphical frontend \fBdbmixer\fP.

For an in-depth description of each application, see its respective man page.
