What happened to SunRize between 2.1 and 3.0? 2.1 won't work with the Perfect Sound 3.0 hardware. The hardware changed. They won't give you source to 3.0. They won't even give you documentation on how to read data from the hardware. From wading around in the 3.0 binaries, it looks like it was rewritten in assembler, and done so in such a way as to lose on advanced technology. As an aside, SunRize doesn't allocate any resources (except memory) before using them, in any of the versions I've seen (2.1, 2.3 & 3.x). This is an accident waiting to happen.
