Yes, for example, Nama's mastering network and effect
defaults[1] are a black box to me, yet I would guess a
common enough configuration that I would hope someone else
can do the work that I might not be able to accomplish
myself. Users of many other DAWs would benefit as well.

And users of Ecasound might like to have volume/pan controls
that respond smoothly to realtime parameters changes.
Finding suitable LADSPA/LV2 plugins need only take a
contribution for one savvy Linux audio user who has already
solved these issues for him/herself.

Cheers,

Joel

1. Nama's mastering network.

                       +- Low -+
                       | |
    Master_in --- Eq --+- Mid -+--- Boost -> soundcard/wav_out
                       | |
                       +- High +

The Eq track hosts an equalizer. The Low, Mid and High
tracks each apply a bandpass filter, a compressor and a
spatialiser.

The Boost track applies gain and a limiter.

eq: Parametric1 1 0 0 40 1 0 0 200 1 0 0 600 1 0 0 3300 1 0

low_pass: lowpass_iir 106 2

mid_pass: bandpass_iir 520 800 2

high_pass: highpass_iir 1030 2

compressor: sc4 0 3 16 0 1 3.25 0

spatialiser: matrixSpatialiser 0

limiter: tap_limiter 0 0
