We are pleased to announce the release of RAKARRACK, The best program for guitar effects developed for the platform GNU/Linux under the GPL license.

This based on the magnificent set of effects developed by Paul Nasca Octavian for the synthesizer ZynAddSubFX. It contains 10 effects: Linear EQ, Compressor, Distortion, Overdrive, Echo, Chorus, Phaser, flanger, Reverb and parametric EQ. But that's not all. It has characteristics that make it unique. It includes a tuner and a monophonic MIDI converter and is capable of receiving MIDI signals to control volume and program change. You can save and restore the state of the rack on file and also manages banks up to 80 presets. The application is distributed with a bank of 80 effects of the most varied styles. The help is available in four languages: English, Spanish, Portuguese and French.
