Re: [orca-list] audio editing and recording in linux?

[Julien Claassen <julien mail upb de>]

Hi David1
  In the commandline - console - you have Nama, based on Ecasound, it can both 
use JACKd and ALSA. though especially for multitrack JACK is favourable. If 
you get Ecasound-2.8.0 as a package you could get Nama from cpan, since it is 
constantly developped. It's not 100% stable, but I've been recording music and 
post processing it with Nama for moe than two years now.
  Ecasound itself of course can record multitrack, but it's not as high-level 
as Nama, you will miss things like tracks, easily editable effects, versioning 
in recordings, etc. etc.
  You might do something with smaller commandline tools. Perhaps sox could 
help you. It depends on where you want to go? What sort of recording and 
editing.
  I've also heard, that someone used GXhead, which is some sort of GTK-app. 
I'm not sure about its capabilities.
  Tell me, where you want to go and I'm sure, I could suggest the odd tool or 
three. :-)
  Warmly yours
          Julien
