I want to know why LASH is unsupported by so many programms. Mostly sad
for the "big" programms like Ardour, Rosegarden, Linuxsampler and all
these...
JACK is a superior concept and nearly all programms happily integrated a
Jack client.
In my opinion LASH is a same fundamental concept to connect the "one
function - one programm" philosophy to an audio workspace, like JACK
already does.
So why is there so low interest in LASH?
Hi N:
It's a good question, and it's obviously stumped the crowd at LAU. ;)
I'm not sure why there's apparently little interest, but I'll hazard a
few guesses:
1) There aren't enough developers working on advancing, stabilizing,
and maintaining the system.
2) It's not so simple to bolt LASH on to an existing app as it is to
do the same with JACK.
3) Not enough users are interested.
These are *guesses*, not facts. Perhaps one of the devs listening on on
LAU will enlighten us ? :)
Best,
