Given that Rubberband was really the first library available on Linux without a license that could do high quality timestretching, its not really suprising that there are not that many apps which support this (*). "Elastic time" is really a phenomenally complex thing to implement - I've heard that when it was added to ProTools they basically had to redesign the entire program and it was probably their biggest engineering undertaking since starting the project. (*) yes, there was soundtouch for several years before, but it uses WSOLA which generates artifacts on a lot more material than RB does. and yes, there is one proprietary library available too, but without source and with a license that makes it hard to use on GPL projects. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
