[PD] (OT) audio (but not only) software in ubuntu maverick

[Derek Holzer]

The best FLOSS soundfile editor I found was Rezound, however it has not 
been active since 2007 so I don't know how up to date it is anymore. One 
huge problem was that its JACK support was/is crap.

http://rezound.sourceforge.net/

If you are one of those scripty kinds of kids, then you could check out snd:

Of course the Ardour/Jamin package for multitracking and mastering is 
unbeatable:

http://www.ardour.org/
http://jamin.sourceforge.net/en/about.html

And two fun toys to play with:

http://www.essej.net/sooperlooper/ (live looping)
http://freqtweak.sourceforge.net/ (spectral delay)

Best!
