Nama - multitrack recorder and digital audio workstation
nama [options] [project-name]
A multitrack audio application for recording, effects processing, editing, mixing, mastering and live performance. It can also perform general-purpose audio processing, such as 5.1 to stereo conversion. Nama uses Ecasound as the audio processing engine.
Projects in Nama are audio networks of tracks and buses. Tracks may contain one or more RIFF (.wav) files, as well as effects, sends, inserts, marks, regions, fades, edits and sequences. Tracks can host LADSPA, LV2 and Ecasound plugins. Audio regions may be altered, duplicated, time-shifted or replaced.
Audio processing is performed in realtime when a track is played and may be cached (frozen) to a new audio file.
Project data is serialized as JSON. The complete history is tracked by the git version control system. As a result, projects can be managed using branches and tags, and provide undo/redo.
Nama supports some MIDI functionality via midish.
To facilitate reuse, a track's plugins and inserts can be stored as an effect chain. Effect profiles apply effect chains to groups of tracks. Project templates are for duplicating an entire project sans audio files.
Nama performs Audio IO via JACK or ALSA. Soundcard IO goes via JACK, if running, with transparent fallback to ALSA.
Nama supports Ladish Level 1 session handling.
Nama has fully featured terminal command prompt, a Tk GUI, and experimental OSC and remote-command modes.
The command prompt can run Nama commands, Ecasound interactive-mode commands, commands for the midish MIDI recorder/player, shell commands and perl code. Commands and filenames can be autocompleted using the TAB key. Command history is available to browse with up and down arrows.
The help system provides documentation and keyword search covering Nama commands and effects-processing plugins.
The hotkey mode provides a convenient way to select, view, and modify effect parameters.
Debugging options:
The Ecasound audio engine is configured through use of chain setups that define the signal processing network.
Nama serves as an intermediary, taking high-level user commands, generating chain setups for user tasks such as recording, playback, mixing, etc., and running the audio engine.
Configuration commands affect future runs of the audio engine. For example, rec, play, mon and off determine whether the current track will get its audio stream from an external (e.g. live) source, whether an existing audio file will be played back, and whether a new audio file will be recorded. Nama responds to these commands by reconfiguring the engine and displaying the updated track status. See 'man ::ChainSetup' for details on how the chain setup created.
Once a chain setup is loaded and the engine is launched, commands can be issued to control the realtime behavior of the audio processing engine. These commands include transport "start" and "stop", playback head repositioning commands such "forward", "rewind" and "setpos". Effects may be added, modified or removed while the engine is running.
General configuration of sound devices and program options is performed by editing the .namarc file, which is formatted as YAML. On Nama's first run, a default version of .namarc is placed in the user's home directory.
Invoked by default if Tk is installed, this interface provides a subset of Nama's functionality on two windows:
The top section has buttons for creating, loading and saving projects, adding tracks, adding effects to tracks. In short, for setup.
Below are buttons for controlling the transport (start, stop and friends) and for setting marks.
The GUI project name bar and time display change color to indicate whether the upcoming operation will include live recording (red), mixdown (yellow) or playback (green).
The effects window provides sliders for each effect parameter of each track. Parameter range, defaults, and log/linear scaling hints are automatically detected. Text-entry widgets are used to enter parameters values for plugins without hinted ranges. Any parameter label can be clicked to add a parameter controller.
Provides a conventional view with waveform and playback head.
The command prompt is available the terminal window and provides access to all of Nama's functions.
Press the Enter key if necessary to get the command prompt, which will look something like this:
In this instance, 'sax' is the current track in the 'untitled' default project.
When using buses, the bus is indicated before the track:
At the prompt, you can enter Nama and Ecasound commands, Perl code preceded by "eval" or shell code preceded by "!".
Multiple commands on a single line are allowed if delimited by semicolons. Usually the lines are split on semicolons and the parts are executed sequentially, however if the line begins with "eval" or "!" the entire line (up to double semicolons ';;' if present) will be given to the corresponding interpreter.
You can access command history using up-arrow/down-arrow.
Type "help" for general help, "help command" for help with "command", "help foo" for help with commands containing the string "foo". "help-effect foo bar" lists all plugins/presets/controller containing both foo and bar. Tab-completion is provided for Nama commands, Ecasound-iam commands, plugin/preset/controller names, and project names.
Most commands have abbreviations, such as 'afx' for 'add-effect'. These are shown in the help listings.
Each track has a descriptive name (i.e. vocal) and an integer track-number assigned when the track is created. New user tracks initially belong to the Main bus.
Track output signals are usually mixed and pass through the Main track on the way to soundcard for monitoring.
The following sections describes track attributes and their effects.
Specifying 'mono' means the track has one input channel, which will be recorded as a mono WAV file. Mono track signals are automatically duplicated to stereo and a pan effect is provided.
Specifying 'stereo' for a track means that two channels of audio input will be recorded as an interleaved stereo WAV file. You can also use a 'stereo' declaration to avoid the automatic channel copy usually applied to single-channel sources.
Specifying N channels for a track ('set width N') means N successive input channels will be recorded as an N-channel interleaved WAV file.
Basic signal routing for each track is controlled by its setting to REC, MON, PLAY or OFF.
The MON setting prepares to connect the live track source.
The REC setting prepares to connect the live track source and record it to an audio file.
The PLAY setting enqueues an audio file for playback from disk as the track source.
The OFF setting tells Nama to remove the track from the audio network. OFF status may result for a track when no audio source is available. For example, a track with no recorded audio files will show OFF status when set to PLAY.
By default a track belongs to the Main bus and is routed to the Main track. This track provides a final fader before the signal goes via ALSA or JACK to the audio device.
Buses can force the status of their member tracks to OFF. Nama provides MON and OFF settings for buses. OFF (set by "bus-off") removes all member tracks from the chain setup, MON (set by "bus-mon" restores them.
The mixplay command sets the Mixdown track to PLAY and the Main bus to OFF.
Multiple audio files ("takes") can be recorded for each track. These are distinguished by a version number that increments with each recording run, i.e. sax_1.wav, sax_2.wav, etc. All audio files recorded in the same run have the same version number.
The version numbers for track playback can be selected at the bus or track level. By setting the bus version to 5, you can play back version 5 of several tracks at once. Version 5 could signify the fifth take of a song, or the fifth song of a live recording session.
The track version setting, if present, overrides the bus version setting. Setting the track version to zero restores control of the version number to the bus.
The Main bus version setting does not propagate to other buses.
Marks in Nama are similar to those in other audio editing software. One limitation is that mark positions are relative to the beginning of an Ecasound chain setup. If your project involves a single track, and you will be shortening the stream by setting a region to play, set any marks you need after defining the region.
The "region" command allows you to define endpoints for a portion of an audio file. You can then use the "shift" command to move the region to the desired time position.
If you use named marks as endpoints, the region will change if the mark's position is adjusted.
Each track can have one region definition. To create multiple regions, the "new-region" command takes a pair of marks to create a read-only copy of the current track with the specified region definition.
You can control this region as you would any other other track, shifting the start time, applying effects, adjusting volume, etc.
Using Tracks from Other Projects
The "link-track" clones a read-only track from another track, which may belong to a different project.
Each track gets volume and pan effects by default. New effects added using "add-effect" are applied before pan volume controls. You can position effects anywhere you choose using "insert_effect" or "position-effect".
Fades
Fades can be placed on any track. They defined by mark position and duration. An additional volume operator, -eadb, is applied to each track to host the envelope controller that implements fades.
Sends and Inserts
The "send" command can route a track's post-fader output to a soundcard channel or JACK client in addition to the normal mixer input. Nama currently allows one aux send per track.
The "add-insert" command configures a pre- or post-fader send-and-return to soundcard channels or JACK clients. Wet and dry signal paths are provided, with a default setting of 100% wet.
Each track can have one pre-fader and one post-fader insert.
A bunch is just a list of track names. Using the "for" keyword with the name of a bunch will apply the commands that follow to all of the tracks in the bunch. A bunch can be created with the "new-bunch" command. A bus name can also be treated as a bunch.
Buses enable multiple tracks to be routed through a single mix track before feeding the Main mixer bus (or possibly, another bus.)
The following commands create a bus and assign three tracks to it. The mix track takes the name of the bus and is stereo by default.
# create a bus named Strings with a same-named mix track add-bus Strings # create tracks for the bus add-tracks violin cello bass # move the tracks from the Main bus (default) to the Strings bus for violin cello bass; move-to-bus Strings # use the mix track to control bus output volume Strings vol - 10
Submixes
Submixes are a type of bus used to provide instrument monitors, or to send the outputs from multiple user tracks to an external program such as jconverter.
While Nama can address tracks by either name and track number, Ecasound chain setups use the track number exclusively.
The Main track (mixer output) is always chain 1, the Mixdown track is always chain 2.
Nama uses Ecasound loop devices where necessary to connect two tracks, or to allow one track to have multiple inputs or outputs. Each loop device adds one buffer, which increases latency.
Let's examine the signal flow from track 3, the first available user track. Assume track 3 is named "sax".
We will divide the signal flow into track and mixer sections. Parentheses show the chain id.
The stereo outputs of each user track terminate at Main_in, a loop device at the mixer input.
Track, REC status
Sound device --+---(3)----> Main_in /JACK client | +---(R3)---> sax_1.wav
REC status indicates that the source of the signal is the soundcard or JACK client. The input signal will be written directly to a file except in the special preview and doodle modes.
Track, PLAY status
sax_1.wav ------(3)----> Main_in
Mixer, with mixdown enabled
In the second part of the flow graph, the mixed signal is delivered to an output device through the Main chain, which can host effects. Usually the Main track provides final control before audio output or mixdown.
Main_in --(1)--> Main_out --+--------> Sound device | +-->(2)--> Mixdown_1.wav
Mastering Mode
In mastering mode (invoked by "master-on" and released "master-off") the following network receives the Main track signal as input and provides an output to the soundcard or WAV file.
+- Low -+ | | Main_in --- Eq --+- Mid -+--- Boost -> soundcard/wav_out | | +- High +
The Eq track hosts an equalizer.
The Low, Mid and High tracks each apply a bandpass filter, a compressor and a spatialiser.
The Boost track applies gain and a limiter.
These effects and their default parameters are defined in the configuration file .namarc.
The "mixdown" command configures Nama for mixdown. The Mixdown track is set to REC (equivalent to "Mixdown rec") and the audio monitoring output is turned off (equivalent to "Main off").
Mixdown proceeds after you start the transport.
As a convenience, Mixdown_nn.wav will be symlinked to <project-name_nn.wav> or <branch_name_nn.wav> in the project directory. The latter format is used branches other than the default master branch.) Corresponding encoded files are created if the mixdown_encodings option is set in .namarc. Acceptable values are a space-separated list. The default is "mixdown_encodings: ogg mp3".
These non-recording modes, invoked by "preview" and "doodle" commands tweak the routing rules for special purposes. Preview mode disables recording of WAV files to disk. Doodle mode disables PLAY inputs while excluding any tracks with the same source as a currently routed track. The "arm" command releases both preview and doodle modes.
The eager setting causes the engine to start immediately following a reconfiguration.
If git is available, projects are saved automatically after each command and it is not necessary to explicitly save your work.
When you type "save", Settings related to the state of the project are saved in the file State.json in the project directory. State.json is tracked by git.
"save" updates several other data files as well:
Aux.json, also in the project directory, contains data that is part of the project (such as command history, track comments, and current operating modes) but with no direct effect on the project audio.
global_effect_chains.json, in the project root directory (usually ~/nama) contains system and user defined effect chains.
Save without Git
"save somename.json" will save project state to a file of that name. Similarly "get somename.json" will load the corresponding file. The .json suffix may be omitted if "use_git: 0" is set in .namarc.
Save with Git
If git is available, Nama uses it to store snapshots of every step in the history of your project.
When you type "save initial-mix", the latest snapshot is tagged with the name "initial-mix", which you can recall later with the command "get initial-mix".
You can include a comment with the snapshot:
"save initial-mix "sounds good enough to send to the front office""
Nama lets you create new branches, starting at any snapshot.
To start a new branch called compressed-mix starting at a snapshot called initial-mix you would say:
"new-branch compressed-mix initial-mix"
If you want to go back to working on the master branch, use "branch master".
You can also issue native git commands at the Nama prompt.
Git history example
All projects begin on the "master" branch. Because this is the default branch, it is not displayed in the prompt. Otherwise "master" is not special in any way.
In the graphs below, the letters indicate named snapshots.
create test-project ... save a ... save b ... save c ---a---b---c (master) get a ... save d ... save e ... save f d---e---f (a-branch) / -----a----b---c (master)
Now, you want to go back to try something different at "c":
get c ... save g d---e---f (a-branch) / ----a----b---c (master) \ g (c-branch CURRENT HEAD)
You could also go back to master, and restart from there:
get master ... save h ... save i d---e---f (a-branch) / ----a----b---c---h---i (master CURRENT HEAD) \ g (c-branch)
Merging of branches is not supported.
When you type "quit" Nama will automatically save your work to State.json. If you don't want this behavior, use Ctrl-C to exit Nama.
Use source filename.ports to ask Nama to connect multiple JACK ports listed in a file filename.ports to the input port(s) of that track.
If the track is stereo, ports from the list are alternately connected to left and right channels.
An edit consists of audio clips and data structures associated with a particular track and version. The edit replaces part of the original audio file, allowing you to fix wrong notes, or substitute one phrase for another. Behind the scenes, the host track becomes the mix track to a bus. Sources for the bus are the original audio track, and zero or more edits, each represented by a hidden track.
Each track can host multiple edits. Edits are non-destructive; they are achieved by using Ecasound's ability to crossfade and sequence.
Before creating the edit, select the track and version to be edited. You will now need to create three marks:
The edit will replace the audio between the rec start and rec end points.
There are two ways to set these points.
set-edit-points command
Position the playback head a few seconds before the edit. Enter the set-edit-points command. This will start the engine. Hit the P key three times to designate the playback start, punch-in and punch-out positions.
Specify points individually
Position the playback head at the position you want playback for the edit to start. Enter the set-play-start-mark command.
Use the same procedure to set the rec start and rec end positions using the set-rec-start-mark and set-rec-end-mark commands.
Create the edit
Enter the new-edit command to create the necessary tracks and data structures.
Use preview-edit to confirm the edit positions. The engine will run and you will hear the host track with the target region removed. Playback will be restricted to the edit region. You may use preview_out to hear the clip to be removed.
Use list-marks to see the edit marks and modify-mark to nudge them into perfect position.
Once you are satisfied with the mark positions, you are ready to record your edit.
Enter start-edit. Playback will begin at first mark. The replacement clip will be recorded from the source specified in the original track.
Each start-edit command will record an additional version on the edit track. redo-edit will delete (destructively) the most recent audio clip and begin recording anew.
destroy-edit deletes (destructively) the current edit.
You may specify another range for editing and use the editing procedure again as many times as you like. Edits on one track may not overlap.
Merging edits
merge-edits will recursively merge all edits applied to the current track and version, creating a new version for the track. This will freeze your edits against an accidental change in mark, region or version settings.
list-edits will label the edits by index and time.
end-edit-mode will restore normal playback mode
You can send commands to Nama from a remote process, and retrieve the result. Understand that this code opens a remote execution hole.
In .namarc you need something like:
remote_control_port: 57000
Then Nama will set up a listener for remote commands.
The usual return value will be a single newline.
However, if you send an 'eval' command followed by perl code, the return value will be the result of the perl code executed with a newline appended. If the result is a list, the items will be joined by spaces into a single string.
For example, if you send this string:
eval $this_track->name
The return value will be the name of the current track.
If the result is an object or data structure, it will be returned in a serialized form.

Nama selects realtime or nonrealtime parameters based on the realtime_profile, ecasound_buffersize and ecasound_globals fields in .namarc. You can optionally specify the buffersizes as a multiple of the JACK period size. Note that for best realtime operation under JACK you will have to configure jackd appropriately as well.
The realtime and auto profiles are useful when using Nama/Ecasound for live fx processing or live monitoring.
The realtime profile sets a small buffersize and other low latency settings whenever a soundcard or JACK client is connected.
The nonrealtime profile uses a bigger buffer, providing extended margins for stable operation. It is suitable for post-processing, or for recording without live monitoring responsibilities.
The auto profile defaults to nonrealtime settings. It switches to realtime, low-latency settings when a track has a live input.
On any change in setup, the GUI display updates and "show-tracks" command is executed automatically showing what to expect the next time the engine is started.
You can use the "chains" command to verify the Ecasound chain setup. (The Ecasound command "cs-save-as mysetup.ecs" will additionally store all engine data, effects as well as routing.)
The "dump" command displays data for the current track. The "dumpall" command shows all state that would be saved.
This is the same output that is written to the State.yml file when you issue the "save" command.
No latency compensation across signal paths is provided at present. This feature is under development.
If you are using Nama with the NetECI interface (i.e. if Audio::Ecasound is not installed) you should block TCP port 2868 if your computer is exposed to the Internet.
The following commands, available on Unixlike systems with Perl installed, will pull in Nama and other Perl libraries required for text mode operation:
"cpanm Audio::Nama" -or- "PERL_MM_USE_DEFAULT=1 cpan Audio::Nama"
To use the GUI, you will need to install Tk:
"cpanm Tk"
You may want to install Audio::Ecasound if you prefer not to run Ecasound in server mode:
"cpanm Audio::Ecasound"
You can pull the source code as follows:
"git clone git://github.com/bolangi/nama.git"
Consult the BUILD file for build instructions.
The Nama mailing list is a suitable forum for questions regarding Nama installation, usage, bugs, feature requests, etc.
