This simple setup seems to work pretty well so far. There are three things where I would like to ask advice on: 1. What is the best route / strategy to manage punch in and outs (besides p= racticing harder and making less errors... ;-) )? =C2=A0=C2=A0 In general a track would look something like this: =C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 - Part 1 0-a seconds =C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 - Part 2 a seconds- b seconds =C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 - Part 3 b seconds - c seconds =C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 - etc... All parts pass the same effect chain.=20 Would using ewf files the best way to go or can I manage this directly in a= ecs file? All of the functionality of ewf files now able to be done internally with e= casound now. Issue the command -> man ecasound-iam Also, make sure you look at -> man ecasound I've been writing an ecasound front end for a long, long time and I can tel= l you that I found a million ways to do this. A lot of the code for all this has been buried as I redesign the DAW. So I = will just tell you to go through both of the ecasound man pages and absorb = the concepts. Then try anything that seems to relate to punch-ins/punch-out= s. And there's a lot of features in ecasound that relate to modern day appr= oaches to punching in and punchin out. I've been researching all the DAW's out there and there's not one punch-in/= punch-out scenario I haven't been able to do with ecasound (testing mostly.= .. but it all works). Ecasound provides a tremendous amount of features that are a playground if = you have enough perseverance and imagination. 2. How can I add LV2 plugins without having to refer to the website? =C2=A0 The manual says that I have to include the website from the plugin:h= ttps://ecasound.seul.org/ecasound/Documentation/examples.html#LV2Is there a= n alternative way to do this locally, because I get xruns when having the w= ifi enabled? I don't know. I'm still using ladspa plugins with ecasound 3. How can I add a synced metronome as a click track (other then recording = a click track)? 'Jack Audio Connection Kit' has some test programs that I (think) come with= it when you install it. The metronome is called jack_metro. It's a static = metronome (one tempo through the whole song... no tempo mapping), but it wo= rks well.
