Lightweight tools for playing, practicing and recording music on Linux.
Shut Audio Tools are lightweight tools for playing, recording and
editing music. They support Jack, Pulse Audio and ALSA.
They run in a text terminal, or in GUI mode. Currently included are:
- ShutLP, a gapless loop player with a count-in metronome. It helps you practice along with a recorded loop.
- Shut Record, a recording front end with workflow management for naming / recording / redoing. Set up a background loop with ShutLP, record with Shut Record, view with mhwaveedit and retry until happy.
- spliceaudio, an audio splicing and loop-creation utility using sox
- Shut Audio Control (shut-actl), a GUI for managing Pulse Audio, Jack and their interactions
Dependencies
- mandatory: perl, python; sox, mplayer; Jack, Pulse Audio or ALSA
