Hi, I started last year the project of an small framework for audio apps based on JACK and LADSPA. I published it quite a while ago on : http://lamarmite.poivron.org But I'm now really doubting of the interest of this project and this should be THE place to find answers ... --*/--*/--*/--*/ Here is a short intro La Marmite is a C++ framework cooked for the development of audio applications for GNU/Linux which is based on the will of simplifying the combined use of the standard tools JACK and LADSPA. La Marmite is free software and published under the GNU Public License. JACK and LADSPA are two major ingredients from the Linux audio world but mixing them together often bury me in long hours of C coding which rapidly oxidize my placid humour... My idea was to construct a object-oriented environment providing a higher level of abstraction and which allows me to concentrate on the logic of the application and to achieve my goal faster without having neither to bury myself in the inmost depths of the interfaces nor to recode over and over the same routines. Do you feel like ? La Marmite was designed in order to create same applications, audio toys, or autonomous audio modules which be further mixed or combined through JACK. But only few things have been realised so far. And it might not be well suited for larger scale applications.
