[Rosegarden-devel] audio update

[Richard B. <bo...@bo...>]

Ok, today's stuff:

o Audio VU meters now work - at the moment they are exactly the same as
  MIDI vu meters.  We can always change this later - it'd be nice to
  have maybe a different look to them and a different response to the
  MIDI vu meteres.

o Live audio levels - selecting your recording source on the mixer
  and arming and audio track for record will allow you to preview the
  input level in real time (well, adjusted for JACK latency)
  
o Audio latency dialog - modified it so that it now queries the jack
  server for its end-to-end latencies and sets values accordingly.
  You can still set it manually but it's recommended that you probably
  don't.

o Previewing audio files in the AudioManagerDialog - now previewing
  audio files (so you can hear them) pops up an information dialog with
  a cancel button.  At some point in the near future it might be cool to
  allow the user to assign audio files on this manager either to keys on
  your computer keyboard or even to the incoming MIDI stream - then the
  user could "play" audio files asynchronously over the top of their
  composition.   The infrastructure is all in there for this stuff - it'd
  just require wiring up at some point.
