I have a live recording (acoustic jazz) where the engineer
messed up, so I need to copy some audio from one part to

linux.
What are my options and what would you guys recommend?
there isn't anything that can do this (yet). you might try
playing with SoundTouch, but it really doesn't hold a candle
to the timefx implementations found in most proprietary
applications.
I'm not sure how it differs, but the time shrink/stretch stuff in
the Snd <http://www-ccrma.stanford.edu/software/snd/> open source
program seems quite a bit better to my ear than do the other open
source time stretchers familiar in the Linux audio world. This
could just be my acoustic memory failing me, but I've had this
same impression several times now.
I think (IIRC) that the Rivendell guys are putting in software time scaling
for cards which don't support it. Rivendell can do it now for the ASI cards
which have the ability.
I don't think this is necessarily directly helpful, but I am ignorant here and
it might so I thought I would mention it.
