This email brings up several important point for the big picture, and I think
there is strategy to address them.
Flame if you must, but think before you react:
1) One has to subscribe to a thousand lists to stay on top of linux audio
2) The LA lists as a clearinghouse for info is suboptimal.

Are you sure you didn't have a typo? I just couldn't find laddca_control
myself ;;) DOH!
What was your install path (./configure --prefix) ? If /usr/local (the usual
default), is /usr/local/bin in your $PATH? It's not normally in root's $PATH
Two commands you may find handy
which - tells you which copy of a binary you are using, also comes in handy
for executing programs without typing the complete path if you quote it and
it's argument with backticks
j4strngs_AT_xxxxx:~$ which ladcca_control
/usr/local/bin/ladcca_control
whereis - A lot like which, but tells you about programs not in you $PATH
j4strngs_AT_xxxxx:~$ whereis ladcca_control
ladcca_control: /usr/bin/ladcca_control /usr/local/bin/ladcca_control /usr/share/man/man1/ladcca_control.1.gz
You'll note whereis shows 2 existing binaries

It's right up there with jack in terms of importance IMO.
I need to minimally put together ladcca wrapper scripts for qjackctl
