Debian Multimedia Project
Summary
Sound editor
Sound editors in Debian

Debian contains a several programs to edit sound. Here you can have an overview.

The list to the right includes various software projects which are of some interest to the Debian Multimedia Project. Currently, only a few of them are available as Debian packages. It is our goal, however, to include all software in Debian Multimedia which can sensibly add to a high quality Debian Pure Blend.

For a better overview of the project's availability as a Debian package, each head row has a color code according to this scheme:

If you discover a project which looks like a good candidate for Debian Multimedia to you, or if you have prepared an unofficial Debian package, please do not hesitate to send a description of that project to the Debian Multimedia mailing list

terminatorX is a realtime audio synthesizer that allows you to "scratch" on digitally sampled audio data (.wav, .au, *.mp3, etc.) the way hiphop-DJs scratch on vinyl records. It features multiple turntables, realtime effects (built-in as well as LADSPA plugin effects), a sequencer and an easy-to-use GTK+ GUI.

GStreamer is a streaming media framework, based on graphs of filters which operate on media data. Applications using this library can do anything from real-time sound processing to playing videos, and just about anything else media-related. Its plugin-based architecture means that new data types or processing capabilities can be added simply by installing new plug-ins.

PiTiVi allows users to easily edit audio/video projects based on the GStreamer framework. PiTIVi provides several ways of creating and modifying a timeline. Ranging from a simple synopsis view (a-la iMovie) to the full-blown editing view (aka Complex View) which puts you in complete control of your editing.
