That bit of ecasound looks rather interesting. I'll check it out.
Did you have any segfault problems? Or any problems with audio degrading
over about 15 minutes period of time (pops and clicks), I think I
mentioned that problem to you before. I haven't done a thorough test
yet, just thought maybe someone could verify if they are/aren't having
the same problems with ALSA 0.9.0beta4, SB Live and ecasound v2.0.1. I'm
not sure yet if the segfault is caused by my plugin or not :) I know the
audio degrading thing isn't the plugin though, as I removed it from the
chain (just full duplex ALSA input/output) with same results. Happy
vocoding :)
