Ardour 2.8.16 is released

Blog
#1

Hot on the heels of 2.8.15 comes a minor upgrade to 2.8.16. This release is of significance to only 2 groups of people:

  • People who use a FFADO-supported audio interface on Linux and like to start JACK from within Ardour (this has been fixed to use the correct "firewire" driver name)
  • Packagers for Linux distributions (this release will now build using SYSLIBS=1 on most current Linux distributions, unlike 2.8.15 which was almost impossible to build under any circumstances)

Get it as usual from http://ardour.org/download

Thanks for sorting the FFADO issue. I did try to report it on Mantis, but I after registering 3 days ago, I am still waiting for confirmation of registration.

there are no plans for a windows release at this time. ardour can be built on windows. there is no support infrastructure - our existing community is not interested or able to provide support for windows users. Harrison Mixbus, which is based on Ardour, is available for windows.

Why should this be a problem?
I run Ardour in a system which is also used for some Windows applications: it simply dual -boots AVLinux and Windows XP.

AVLinux is very easy to install, though if you need to convert to dual-boot you’ll have to do some disk partitioning or (maybe easier) install a second HD
