Hello I have recently compiled and installed ecamegapedal v0.4.3 - [libecasound 2.3.0]. and I'm having some problems getting it to work right. I thought I'd post my questions to this list as I'm assuming Kai Vehmanen subscribes to this list as well. First off, ecamegapedal is exactly what I am looking for - an easy way to turn a computer into an effects box. Realtime reverb, delay, LAPSPA plugins... Perfect. My two problems: First is that I'm getting a lot of backround distortion/ static. I can hear my input signal fine and the selected effects work as they should. The level meters are quite active when there is no signal input/ quiet passage and the distortion is a low level buzzing/ static that is totally related to running the program. The other problem is periodically the computer totally locks up, GUI, mouse, keyboard, everything freezes and I have to do a hard reset (no other program that I've run seems to cause this on my computer but the computer is old and flakey in other respects...). I have tried: Running as root- a little less distortion but not much difference. Adding "default-audio-format=s16_le,2,22050,i" to my ~/.ecasound/ecasoundrc file. This doesn't seem to change the static problem. Anyway, be great if it worked better, thought I'd ask... Thanks for any input, Paul Software details: libecasound 2.3.0 gcc (GCC) 3.2 20020903 (Red Hat Linux 8.0 3.2-7) redhat 8.0, 2.4.18-14 kernel with ALSA 0.9.8 drivers jack-audio-connection-kit-0.80.0 installed but not used qt-3.0.5 installed kernel is not low-latency (that I know of) Hardware details: Intel Pentium pro 200MHz, i440FX chipset 256MB RAM Creative SB AWE64 ISA soundcard signal source is an amplified microphone going into the line input of the sound card
