See +<http://www.digido.com/media/articles-and-demos.html> and follow the +links on 'level practices'. + +This is the type of meter you want for live recording, mixing and +mastering. It probably makes no sense to use it on all tracks of a DAW, +where keeping digital level within limits is the main purpose of metering. + +By default, the package is built with '-march=native'. If you need a +generic package that can be installed on any Slackware machine with the +same ARCH as the build host, set FORCE_SLACK_CFLAGS=yes in the script's +environment. + +This package uses POSIX filesystem capabilities to execute with +elevated privileges (required for realtime audio processing). This +may be considered a security/stability risk. Please read +http://www.slackbuilds.org/caps/ for more information. To disable +capabilities, pass SETCAP=no to the script. |
