I was inside media-sound/ at the time and was not even aware of media-plugins/ section. There is no sign of tap-reverbed as an ebuild though. I've just spent 1/2 an hour with TAPs Scaling Limiter and it looks, and sounds, like it's doing exactly what I was after. Perhaps some of the other limiting options also work but this one just seemed to do what I expected, and so simple with just two controls. Thank you Tom Szilagyi and looking forward to exploring your other plugins, particularly the Reverberator. > ... > BTW if you are interested in more Gentoo specific issues feel free to > mail me directly or open a thread on forums.gentoo.org.
