Re: [linux-audio-user] offline processing

Hi, I've been wondering: what is it like processing audio offline under Linux? Is this something that is widely supported? I did a bunch of google searches using the term "offline" but couldn't find anything really useful. My computer is fairly weak (800 MHz laptop, no DSP card). Currently, if I want to process a file (apply effects, change the sample rate, apply dithering, mix it with another file, etc. etc.), I get the best results / greatest efficiency if I do disk bounces that don't require real-time processing. Steinberg seem to be very proud that they now support this, which suggests that it isn't the norm, at least under Windows (I don't think Logic ever supported it under Windows).

I'm also curious if there's general support to process MIDI offline as well, but that's not so critical to me, since the computations are far less intense.
