Lightweight open source software synth library on pure C (possibly C++). PCM.?

Are there any portable open source libraries that support sample-based synthesis and encapsulate producing and mixing simple PCMs?

I really need something minimalistic and decoupled from operating system audio output mechanisms.

Solution

csound has a C api and can handle PCM. ffmpeg can also convert lots of popular formats in PCM.
