release, but the new Loudness Analysis feature will be
very useful to some users. The usual steady drip-drip of
bug fixes continues, and thanks to Ayan Shafqat, we now
have up to date super-optimized metering code for Linux on
both x86(64) and ARM platforms (metering is the most
computationally expensive thing that Ardour itself does).<br></p><p>For more details, please read <a href="https://ardour.org/whatsnew.html">the whole release announcement </a>.<br></p><p>Download as usual from <a href="https://ardour.org/download">https://ardour.org/download</a><br></p></div></div></div><div><br></div><pre class="qt-moz-quote-pre">_______________________________________________
