Well, since there is no shared codebase between SoX_ng and
the VST SoX-Plugins, I have to keep up with you somehow.
A simple solution would be to just use SoX_ng as a library
and only provide a graphical DAW interface. However, since
I have invested so much time in the C++ renovation of the
original SoX code, I do not want to just throw that work
away. And in my opinion, that would also be unsportsmanlike
;-)
Nevertheless, your implementation is the reference and
although I am not copying it, I need to ensure that the
output of my implementation does not differ too much from it
(the often-mentioned acceptable difference of -100dB between
the signals).
But in summary: keep up the good work!
Best regards,
Thomas
