Ecasound is a software package designed for multitrack audio processing. It can be used for simple tasks like audio playback, recording and format conversions, as well as for multitrack effect processing, mixing, recording and signal recycling. Ecasound supports a wide range of audio inputs, outputs and effect algorithms. Effects and audio objects can be combined in various ways, and their parameters can be controlled by operator objects like oscillators and MIDI-CCs. A versatile console mode user-interface is included in the package. See key features and technologies for more details.
Primary platform for running Ecasound is GNU/Linux. Ecasound can also be run on many UNIX-derived systems such as FreeBSD, Mac OS X and Solaris. Limited support for Windows is available through Cygwin.
Ecasound is free software. It is distributed under terms of the GNU General Public License. See the file ’COPYING’ for details. This file is included in all Ecasound distribution packages.

Update 20.01.2010: Problems are now fixed! Public git tree and download site back in use.
Initial Open Sound Control (OSC) interface for parameter control has been added. New '-chorder' and '-eadb' options, and 'cop-get' interactive mode command, have been added. Optional build time support has been added for using liboil to optimize inner loops, giving a small performance boost to many common use-scenarios. Various bugs fixed in JACK support, mp3 output and option parsing. Fixes to build problems in Mac OS X. See the whole announcement.
Today it is exactly ten years since the first public release of Ecasound. See the anniversary mail sent to ecasound-list.
