At the Eastman Computer Music Center we have been working with Doug Scott and testing
his new port of Paul Lansky's rt soundfile mixing program for several months
now. This port is a vast improvement, in terms of stability and features,
over several older Linux rt ports, such as qrt. Doug's new verson reads
WAVE & AIFF format and writes WAVE format. The track map has been significantly
improved over the old SGI version. Scott has updated the documentation and
the resource file (which we still are tinkering with). He has responded positively
to our requests for some additional features, such as support for 96k 24 bit
soundfiles,
and for up to 24 input tracks.
There is still some work to be done, but I would guess that Doug soon will be
ready to make this port available. It is really a nice piece of work.
