[linux-audio-announce] AMD to sponsor linuxaudio.org stand at Sounds Expo

by Daniel James

Hello all, AMD has offered significant sponsorship which will allow linuxaudio.org to have a stand at the Sounds Expo music technology trade show in London, 14-16 April 2005. This will be our second exhibit at Sounds Expo, following generous sponsorship from the AGNULA project last year. As you may know, AMD has worked closely with the Linux development community to ensure that Linux can run natively on its 64-bit x86 processors. There is also at least one shipping Linux-based pro audio product on the market with an AMD processor inside. I will be at Sounds Expo in person, but other people who can help on the stand are also needed, mostly to answer questions about Linux and libre software from musicians, sound engineers and hardware manufacturers. It need not be for all three days - if you can help out on just one day, that would be great. This is a great opportunity to once again put libre audio software directly in front of the target users, so please help if you can. Cheers! Daniel James Director http://linuxaudio.org

[linux-audio-announce] GOTO10 Pure Data Workshop in the Netherlands Media Art Institute

by goto10

sorry for X and Y _pd.workshop 4+1 days 23-3-2005 until 27-3-2005 Netherlands Media Art Institute, Amsterdam in collaboration with goto10.org Guests Tom Schouten (Author of PDP, video processing within PD, Belgium) and Aymeric Mansoux (Artist, France) Fee 150,- Euros Admission Due to the limited capacity, applicants will be selected according to relevant experience and motivation. Please note all materials should be written in English. Applicants can send a mail stating name, adress, telephonenumber, and a short overview of your skills and motivation to : carlijn at montevideo.nl BEFORE MARCH 11th _Pure Data Pure-Data is a "real-time" graphical programming environment for audio and graphical processing. It was planned as a free, better and more stable Max/fts, which has also been developed by Miller Smith Puckette at IRCAM. It is used as a rapid prototype-software for DSP-algorithms, and also as a music instrument and universal multimedia-software. Being a mature project now, Pure-Data is getting more and more popular in the academic field for teaching and exploring computer music and new media art. It's hard to describe the possibilities of such an environment as its field of creation is almost infinite. From audio processing, to video, 2D/3D, interactivity, on-line experimentation, streaming and sensors, Pure-Data can handle all of these and provide a rock stable system which is perfect for performances and installations of any kind. _PDP PDP is a set of external objects to PD developed by Tom Schouten. They are based on the idea of processing data in packets. While it is primarily used for video, the basic structure of PDP allows any kind of data to be processed into any other kind of data. Images can be converted to textures, that can be changed into sound, re-rendered again as image, and so on. The possibilities are endless. _Presentation Sunday March 27th (from 15:00 until 17:00) a presentation of the workshop will take place. This presentation will be open to an audience invited by the participants. A short overview of the workshop will be given and the participants can share the creations they have made with each other and with the audience. Tom Schouten (BE) Artist and author of PDP.

For OSX there is minimal support. The last year PDP has undergone a major restructuring which mainly aims at a wider platform support and 2D/3D drawing primitives (aka 3DP). For the OSX users out there: keep an eye on it! We plan to add Altivec, Quicktime and OpenGL support to use them macs for what they're worth. goto10.

[linux-audio-announce] KMidiTracker 0.5.10

by David Moreno Montero

Hi, I'm pleased to announce KMidiTracker 0.5.10, the new revision of my KDE Midi Tracker, or Step Sequencer, as you wish to call it. New features include SysEx capture of messages, columns are muteable, and finally MIDI clock messages are undestood (as master and slave), so it can finally interact with other sequencers as Rosegarden4. You can get it from http://www.monasteriomono.org/programs/kmiditracker/ Small introducion to KMidiTracker (from the website). ------- Introduction KMidiTracker is a MIDI Step Sequencer. A Step Sequencer is a sequencer in witch the MIDI notes are delivered at regular time intervals, usually a 1/4th of a quarter note. As such it is not as versatile as a regular sequencer as [Rosegarden], but allows very easy creation of loops and sequences. The use of the [MIDI Clock] allows several sequencers communicate clock events, so it is possible to join several sequencers, with diverse focus, to make one single synchronized composition. KMidiTracker is similar to trackers like [FastTracker], [ScreamTracker] or [Buzz], but only the Tracker; no actual sound is emmited. Only MIDI signals. The Tracker divides songs in tracks, each one have several patterns that are arranged as sequences. Time advance in steps that depend on tempo, and in each time step a new MIDI note may sound, or a controller event may be sent. You can have several columns of notes and/or controllers for each pattern, and pattern length is configurable. KMidiTracker Features * MIDI oriented Step Sequencer * ALSA MIDI input/output * Keyboard input * Graphical Controller edition * Controllers include MIDI Controllers, SysEx Controllers and PitchBend * MIDI Master Clock (master and slave) * Linux RTC timer or MMC if avaliable for perfect timing * Tracks and columns in patterns muteable * SysEx parameters. Can be loaded from binary file, manually inserted in hex, or captured from midi input. * Variable Time Signature * Load/Save * KDE application: easy menu, toolbar and shortcuts changes * Everything can be changed in realtime: notes, arrangement, loops, controllers, load/save, new tracks or patterns, delete tracks or patterns... * GPL license -------- Thank you! --- http://www.monasteriomono.org david(a)monasteriomono.org
