Summary of updates from envy24control 0.6.0 (GIT HEAD) to "1.0.0": (0) After a decade, incremented version to 1.0.0 (**) (1) Implemented missing "Peak Hold" functionality in meters and reimplemented meters for increased efficiency and lower X resource usage. (see http://www.linuxaudio.org/mailarchive/lad/2010/7/12/171535 & https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=602903 ) (2) All volumes are represented as decibels, including the 0 to -48dB range of the hardware peak-meters, the 0 -to- -144dB attenuation for all inputs to the digital mixer, the 0 -to- -63dB attenuation of the analog DAC, and the +18 -to- -63dB attenuation/amplification of the analog ADC. (3) All gtk "scale" widgets have dB legends; the "PageUp" "PageDown" keys allow rapid movement between the marked levels. (4) Got rid of myriad compile warnings and other minor fixes across codebase.

In particular, I'd like some assurance that the dB markings on sliders in "Analog Volume" panel are correct (compared to values reported by 'alsamixer'). I'm looking for testing with following devices (as I think my testing covers code for M-Audio Delta 44 & Delta 66, Terratec Dmx6fire & EWX2496) specifically: M-Audio Delta 1010, M-Audio Audiophile 2496, M-Audio Delta 1010LT TerraTec EWS 88MT, TerraTec EWS 88D, TerraTec Phase 88, Hoontech SoundTrack DSP 24 (all variants).
