Yep, thanks a lot.
I tested this version, not extensively yet, but without finding any
problems. Thanks especially for making the polyphony limit a runtime
option.

I'll see that the beta or at latest the release gets into the Arch User
Repository (someone else maintains it there and I'm waiting for a
response) and the archaudio.org binary repository.

Best regards,
Philipp
