Hi
I'm about to mix a larger rock-ish project recorded in logic using
ardour2 and thought I might wanna work a bit with jamin for mastering. I
was a bit surprised to find (according to
http://jamin.sourceforge.net/en/news.html) that the latest releast of
jamin (0.95.0) was in april 2005. In aur (I'm running arch) there's a
jamin-cvs at version 0.97.16. What's the state of the jamin project, is
it dead, which version should I install or should I look for another
project for mastering?
Thanks in advance...

This is probably probably opening a can of worms, but in terms of
sound quality and flexibility, I've found using plugins in a DAW for
mastering works better (I actually use LinuxDSP LV2 plugins and
MixBus).

I 2nd everything stated above. I used Jamin with A2 for a long time for
mastering, and it worked really well. I then went to mixbus and found the
LinuxDSP suite of LV2 plugins to be exceptional (para-EQ with mult-band
compressor). Works like a charm.

Ok, so more people use these. Thanks for the info.
They are closed source, and commercial right? As I rarely use lv2 I'm
not really keen on paying for them for this single project, are there
free alternatives (mostly eq, comp and reverb) with gui I should look
for? I tried eq10q, but had trouble with the gui, not sure if I'm doing
something wrong or there's a bug, wasn't able to dial in anything, the
gui seemed unresponsive...

Hello Atte,
+1 when it comes to using plug-ins. More flexible, more choice. Short
list of open source plug-ins that I use:
EQ: lv2fil
Compression: Calf, Invada, SC3/4 (LADSPA but afaik the SC4 is also
available as an LV2 plug-in)
Reverb: TAL-Reverb, lv2-ir, FreeVerb3, TAP Reverberator
I do have some linuxDSP plug-ins also (mainly EQ and compression) and
they are well worth considering, also for any future projects.
Best,
Jeremy

The cvs version of jamin is the latest version.
No one can be bothered to release a new package because we haven''t had
any feedback on the latest changes.
If you want to use it for your project and provide some feedback it would
be most appreciated.
The most significant change was to add the Kaiser-Bessel window algorithm
to the signal chain which provides the cleanest possible implementation of
the windowing function. Other than that there are still some issues
flagged with the compressors and limiters which no one seems to want to
fix at this stage.
YMMV.
