The Fix Is In: Ardour Set For Summer Release

uprightcitizen writes "Good news for the open source audio recording world! Ardour creator Paul Davis has announced a feature-freeze and has set a binary release date for the now-famous GPL multitrack audio recording application. Ardour has recently been featured in Sound on Sound and has been mentioned on Slashdot many times (here(1), here(2), etc..). The feature freeze is effective as of May 4 and the binary release date is set for sometime in July or August. Good Job Paul!"

    If you want me to send you the fixes to the problems that I have created, contact me

    Can you just not create the problems in the first place? I mean... that works for me

    (ok I couldn't resist. sorry. good points otherwise :)

    The singer they are working with has a voice that requires hiding behind effects.

    *cough* Kelly Osbourne *cough*

    On the flip side, I love listening to old Zeppelin albums and hearing the bleed between tracks. Ah, magnetic tape. What has the world come to. Oh baby baby, you're killing me.

    This moderation is bullshit.

    This isn't flamebait! The guy makes a perfectly vaild point, and I am sure he is correct in his assumption.

    They need to just, for the love of god, make the interface not suck!

  6. Mixing things, Freedom of Religion by Pelam · · Score: 2, Funny

    This whole thread makes me sad.

    Somebody mentions that he goes to church and
    instant flamefest (mostly about evolution)
    ignites?

    I hope most of you know that freedom of
    religion is right there among other basic human
    rights.

    Would you eg. not hire somebody, because
    you assume that he is stupid since he believes
    in Jesus? What if he is from different culture
    or perhaps physically different, but still fit
    for the job?

    Would you be friendly and polite to him?
    How about trying to feel what he feels like,
    or even helping him if he is abused somehow?

    As a christian I would like to add that christians
    are mostly just like everybody else. They come
    from every possible background etc.

    Naturally they have different explanations for
    things and different ways to structure the world.

    (If you ask me, I would say that Genesis happening
    exactly the way it was written is nowhere near
    the center of Christianity. I think many would
    agree. What exactly is in the center is too
    seldom discussed openly.)
