I think this is the only time that having multiple selected chains is useful (but don't quote me on that :) So: c-add t1 c-add t2 c-select t1,t2 ao-add fred.wav makes fred.wav the output for both chains. Hope that helps. With regards to frontends for eca, I am working on one myself. I hope to have the first release in a month or so. It will try to preserve as much of ecasound's semantics as possible, and even give you interactive mode access. I'll try and get a screenshot of the current version up somewhere for people to look at and make suggestions on.
