Can I use other sound libraries than SDL_mixer/SDL_sound for sound and
still use SDL for graphics? or will this crash my system? (I’m talking
of BASS or any other)

cheers

Should be no problem. I don’t know about BASS specific, but I’m using
OpenAL and SDL without any problem.

Just don’t initialize the SDL audio system. This might not crash, but
weired stuff is to be expected, especially on Linux when sound locks
/dev/dsp.

No problem using an SDL/fmod combination either.
