Hello all, here's version 2.3.5. Not too many changes, but still enough to warrant a new release. I also want to use this opportunity for the following: <*****IMPORTANT NOTICE*****> Ecasound website address has changed. The new address is http://www.eca.cx/ecasound This replaces the old (but still functional) website at http://www.wakkanet.fi/~kaiv/ecasound/. Note that also all the subpages have been modified. I've added some redirect pages, but the old site will only be available for a limited time. Please update any links that point to the old website. And also, my email address has changed (see from). </*****IMPORTANT NOTICE******> CVS is tagged with 'v2_3_5' as usual, and here are the full details: --- 1. Summary of changes Various Mac OS X specific build issues have been resolved. Minor changes have been made to the OSS soundcard support to avoid limitations of certain OSS drivers. Many minor updates have been made to user documentation and to build system scripts. --- 2. What is Ecasound? 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. 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 licensed under the GPL. The Ecasound Control Interface (ECI) is licensed under the LGPL. --- 3. Changes since last release * With this version, Ecasound can now really be compiled for MacOS X. This has been tested on various 10.3.x systems. Also JACK support is reported to work under OS X. * Website address has changed: http://www.eca.cx/ecasound replaces the old http://www.wakkanet.fi/~kaiv/ecasound address.
