[linux-audio-user] Re: Call for collaboration

Hi,

what about a small shell script (or two) which takes an
ardour-session-dir, compresses all the audiofiles with flac (its
lossless isn't it?) and then tars the dir. On the other side it untars
the dir, decompresses all the flacs to waves and your session is ready
to be loaded in ardour. Additionally the peak-files could be removed
(they will be regenerated cause the wav-file is newer than the peak
file).

What SEX is missing is the ability to join two branches of music.
Example: A starts the song with some tracks, B takes it and adds the
bass in an own snapshot. But while B is doing this, A also adds
tracks. After A loaded the snapshot from B, he can listen and think
about both versions but the info when B's tracks and recordings start
are not usable in A's snapshot. Only the pure files can be used but
what if the bass-track of B is in fact several takes which don't clue
on beats?

BTW: I wouldn't use CVS for ardour-sessions. Every VCS (version
control system) sucks when it comes to big files. And CVS is so
oldschool...
