Yeah, I’ve used Carla. It makes a great plugin host for live audio production, and the patchbay is based on the same one in Catia. Probably the way to go, especially since Carla is a separate project from Cadence. My biggest problem with Carla as a plugin host was the inability to sync BPM across multiple plugins (i.e. delay effects).

> in other news with -controls, I have noticed that udev sometimes "resets" even pci/internal audio interfaces sometimes with the result that every interface available gets connected as a client if possible. :) This is really part of the same thing as being able to connect more than one USB device. It is all about keeping track of all audio devices. But hey, baby steps. Things work quite well as they are.

Either way, this is great. I can see this along with a number of other improvements or enhancements making their way into the 18.10 release, which could potentially position Ubuntu once again as /the/ choice for audio production.

I love that this ball is rolling again and that we’re pushing forward for a solid release and planning for the future. This is great!
