Ecasound is a software package designed for multitrack audio processing. It can be used for simple tasks like audio playback, recording and format conversions, as well as for multitrack effect processing, mixing, recording and signal recycling. Ecasound supports a wide range of audio inputs, outputs and effect algorithms. Effects and audio objects can be combined in various ways, and their parameters can be controlled by operator objects like oscillators and MIDI-CCs. A versatile console mode user-interface is included in the package. See key features and technologies for more details.
Primary platform for running Ecasound is GNU/Linux. Ecasound can also be run on many UNIX-derived systems such as FreeBSD, Mac OS X and Solaris. Limited support for Windows is available through Cygwin.
Ecasound is free software. It is distributed under terms of the GNU General Public License. See the file ’COPYING’ for details. This file is included in all Ecasound distribution packages.
Today it is exactly ten years since the first public release of Ecasound. See the anniversary mail sent to ecasound-list.
New interactive commands have been added to query and manage JACK port connections. More options are also now available for setting up ecasound’s own JACK ports. Severe bugs in ’playat’ and ’select’ objects have been fixed. A refactored ECI C implementation fixes bugs and provides improved performance for ECI apps. Many minor bugs have been fixed. See the whole announcement.
Bug in channel routing of LADSPA plugins that have more audio output ports than input ports has been fixed. See the whole announcement.
