122. What is Ecasound?
13--------------------
14
15Ecasound is a software package designed for multitrack audio processing.
16It can be used for simple tasks like audio playback, recording and format
17conversions, as well as for multitrack effect processing, mixing,
18recording and signal recycling. Ecasound supports a wide range of audio
19inputs, outputs and effect algorithms. Effects and audio objects can be
20combined in various ways, and their parameters can be controlled by
21operator objects like oscillators and MIDI-CCs. A versatile console mode
22user-interface is included in the package.
23
24Primary platform for running Ecasound is GNU/Linux. Ecasound can also be
25run on many UNIX-derived systems such as FreeBSD, Mac OS X and Solaris.
26Limited support for Windows is available through Cygwin. Ecasound is
27licensed under the GPL. The Ecasound Control Interface (ECI) is licensed
28under the LGPL.
