So, as, contrary to me, Fons knows what he's doing, try his JACE :) I will, too ;) I only wrote jack_convolve because it seemed faster to do to me than understanding/using brutefir's config files (back in the days when brutefir was the only usable convolution engine existing. And it still has millions more features than jack_convolve) ;) Flo -- Palimm Palimm! http://tapas.affenbande.org
