Yet-Another-DAW? To be perfectly honest: I am fine with what is available. Anyway in most of the available gems there is room for improvement: 1.) Stability, everything should be rock solid 2.) Consistency such as: a preset stored in Ardour for a Calf-Synth should be available also when I run that synth as a standalone or in Qtractor and of course it should be restored reliably whenever I open a session in which I had set up this preset before. And there should be bridging plugins to connect any LV2, LinuxVST, DSSI or any other thinkable plug in to any host(that is: to use a DSSI-synth in Ardour, there should be some LV2-meta host plugin, that can load DSSI and provide a connection to Ardours LV2-interface. This may be on the expense of performance but I wuld not care for some more cycles or MB RAM when I could run Whysynth in Ardour. 3.) Better connection to the outside world, especially to controllers like TouchOSC and good tools to set up and store such connections consistently. I think, these things would be interesting for many, now pleas let me utter a little wish of my own ;-) I'd really like to see a new Wav-Editor that: - works in real time like Ardour but offers some offline-stuff like Audacity too(especially for noise-reduction and the like) - offers time stretching at least in the quality of SND but with a nice interface as Rezound used to have it. - offers real time seamless looping with the ability to change the loop while it is being played, as Rezound once offered - offers drawing tools for waveforms as Audacity has - maybe has some of the virtues to analyse material as Sonic Visualiser has (especially note-recognition and wave to MIDI capabilities). And if such a beast would have some interface to Ardour, that allows to manipulate regions while Ardour is running, it would upgrade from "just great" to "absolutely awsome" ;-) just my 2c... Ohhhh before I forgot! Please keep maintaining Alsa Modular. I think, it is one of the most capable application in the field of make your own instrument that I ever have seen and in contrast to some others it really works... > If any of the above, please provide details / intended use-case. > > Cheers from a sunny Ireland, -Harry Thanks for asking, Harry from the ill weathered nether of saxony ;-) > > > > _______________________________________________ > Linux-audio-user mailing list > Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user > _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
