The program needs to be upgraded to a current version of qt.

Yes. qamix for example, provides profiles that allow labelling each control in a human readable form. Deciding which controls make sense in the input section, the output section and a monitor section. (alsamixer gives me two of each control on my monitor mixer because it doesn't know if it is input or output so it gives both... or something) Which controls really belong in a settings section. Ganging any two (or more) controls. qamix also allows having a midi input control various controls. So take that and add the look/feel of qasmixer that can size the controls to fit almost any size window. Add OSC controls. Add jack controls/setup. and that would be a nice pro audio interface application. (though I have probably missed something :) So yes, I have a list. I am sure others could add more. -- Len Ovens www.OvenWerks.net -- Ubuntu-Studio-devel mailing list Ubuntu-Studio-devel@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-devel
