I'm looking to build a simple audio switch (4 or 8 inputs, 1 output). The channel selection would be done with some sort of IR remote or perhaps through a serial link connected to a computer. In either case, the project would need some sort of microcontroller. That's the easy part for me, the analog side is what I've come to ask about.
I was looking around for devices to do the actual audio channel switching and it seems to me that the easiest thing to use in conjunction with the uC would be an analog mux. Does this seem like a good idea?
The most common analog mux (there are a lot) I could find was a 4051. However since this will only be used for audio signals I was hoping that somebody could point me to an analog mux that is optimised for audio signals. Cost is not a factor as this project would most likely be built once.
Thanks.
