WARNING: I am going to over react to Joern's reasonable suggestion because JAMin has recently included another feature that I strongly argued against. So, please have patience with me. I don't have a life and I'm a loser. :) JAMin is a very good tool. For the most part, it is not the result of an experiment. It is a well thought out design of typical and expected tools for the specific task of mastering stereo audio files. It is a very clean, easy to use and unbloated application that is being used in real world installations. This makes it very different from something like ecamegapedal or any other effect where experimentation is the rule for producing awesome and unexpected results. In its currernt feature set, there are only two things that distinguish JAMin from the typical set of mastering tools. They are Jan's parametric style EQ controls in a graphic interface and the inherited features of JACK--multitrack sources, transport awareness, etc. Because JAMin is typical, it can be counted on to perform its intended task. This accountability is very important. 3-D Audio might be the greatest thing since vacume tubes but that can be determined by creating a 3-D Audio JACK client or LADSPA plugins. I'd love to see that happen. Incidentally, room accoustics is one of the topics within my set of obsessions. Of course it'd be hard to call myself an audio engineer if I wasn't obsessed with it. Again, I'm sorry to fire off this big flashing yellow lite message but I hope that my perspective on JAMin is interesting. And maybe it's everyone's lucky day because I don't have time to write a large meandering letter. I've got to go hang about 320 square feet of sound modules that my partner and I built and designed for two flat EQ response rooms with .3 and .1 reverberation times. ron > best, > > jörn > > > (btw, the linux-audio-developers list is also a very > appropriate forum > for this. if you do get around to package your > software, please announce > it there as well, so that technical discussions can > take place on the > dev list.) > > > > > > -- > In this house, we obey the laws of thermodynamics! > - Homer Simpson > > Jörn Nettingsmeier > Kurfürstenstr 49, 45138 Essen, Germany > http://spunk.dnsalias.org (my server) > http://www.linuxaudiodev.org (Linux Audio > Developers) > > > > __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
