It is a major advantage of free software and I think it could be pushed some more in Ubuntu overall.

I love to see this improve but still I think, it will not be easy to diminish the hatred against PA that many users have accumulated. The overall design of PA is capable to solve many many problems for Linux Audio and I think, we have no better approach and I am sure, that nobdy on earth really wants any all new experiments so PA should be pushed I think. BUT to gain the trust of the users PA must become much more user-configurable then before. The first step should be a "disable PA"-switch in a decent, accessible GUI (could be a mixer). This should be possible *without* removing PA alltogether and PA should be really absolute passive if this switch is flicked by the user. > LV2 plugins are another area of improvement.

Guitarix is very important and it makes astounding progress at the moment. Brummer and freinds made this little crushing amp a veritable powerstack usable for serious studio-use with full MIDI-learn, built-in convolution-engine and many other pro-grade features. And i have to stress this again: the new CALF-Plugins that are in the works now will be a revolution in the world of native plugins for Linux. Some are entirely new like the sidechain-compressor, others replace bit-rotten LADSPA-plugins that do not work anymore like the powerfull deesser. And most of them work allready: http://lapoc.de/img/calf-new10.png best regs HZN/Berlin -- Ubuntu-Studio-users mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-users
