Hi Paul,
One
'gotcha' to look out for is that when you call ai-attach or
ao-attach it *detaches* that in/out from any chains it is currently
attached to and connects it to only those chains currently selected.
Hmmm...so what do you do if you want two chains to have the
same output (the first two jack alsa_pcm outputs)?
If you have multiple chains selected when you do an ao-attach or ao-add
then the output will be attached to *all* the selected chains. I think
this is the only time that having multiple selected chains is useful
(but don't quote me on that :)
So:
c-add t1
c-add t2
c-select t1,t2
ao-add fred.wav
makes fred.wav the output for both chains.
Hope that helps.
With regards to frontends for eca, I am working on one myself. I hope to
have the first release in a month or so. It will try to preserve as much
of ecasound's semantics as possible, and even give you interactive mode
access. I'll try and get a screenshot of the current version up
somewhere for people to look at and make suggestions on.
Cheers,
Stuart
