mudita24 1.03 -- improved envy24control mixer/router for ice1712-based sound-cards

by Niels Mayer

The "Mudita24" package is a modification of alsa-tools' envy24control: an application controlling the digital mixer, channel gains and other hardware settings for sound cards based on the ice1712 chipset ( http://alsa.cybermirror.org/manuals/icensemble/envy24.pdf ). It also displays a level meter for each input and output channel and maintains peak level indicators. This utility is preferable to alsamixer(1) for those with ice1712-based cards: M-Audio Delta 1010, Delta 1010LT, Delta DiO 2496, Delta 66, Delta 44, Delta 410 and Audiophile 2496. TerraTec EWS 88MT, EWS 88D, EWX 24/96, DMX 6Fire, Phase 88. Hoontech SoundTrack DSP 24, SoundTrack DSP 24 Value, SoundTrack DSP 24 Media 7.1. Event Electronics EZ8. Digigram VX442. Lionstracs, Mediastaton. Terrasoniq TS 88. Partial support for Roland/Edirol DA-2496. Now available, version 1.03: source: http://nielsmayer.com/envy24control/mudita24-1.0.3.tar.gz binary: http://nielsmayer.com/envy24control/mudita24-1.0.3.x86_64.tgz patch: http://nielsmayer.com/envy24control/mudita24-envy24control-0.6-to-1.0.3.pat… 'envy24control' is part of the "alsa-tools" package. For example, under CCRMA's Fedora repos, it's part of alsa-tools-1.0.22-1.1.fc12.ccrma.x86_64. This "mudita24" package updates/replaces the alsa-tools /usr/bin/envy24control application. The default "./configure ; make ; sudo make install" process on the source-code leaves a binary in /usr/local/bin/envy24control and places the man-page in /usr/local/man/man1/envy24control.1 . This means you can still use the standard alsa-tools version in /usr/bin/envy24control .

External MIDI control of the hardware mixer via --midichannel and --midienhanced options unaffected by this change. * For M-Audio Delta series, add display of "Delta IEC958 Input Status" under "Hardware Settings." * Command line options --no_scale_mark, --channel_group_modulus affect layout and presence of dB markings for sliders. --channel_group_modulus allows override of Left/Right grouping of dB labels for multichannel applications. * Control of peak-meter coloring via --lights_color and --bg_color options. Reasonable default colors used when these options are not set. (1.0.1's use of Gtk skin to provide an automatic color choice didn't work out that well on some systems.) * Fixed command-line options --card and --device to allow valid ALSA card and CTL device names ( https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=602900 ). * Profiles created in ~/.envy24control and not "~/envy24control" ( http://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/view.php?id=4738 ). Summary of previous updates from envy24control 0.6.0 (GIT HEAD) to "1.0.3": (1) Implemented "Peak Hold" functionality in meters; reimplemented meters to do away with inefficient "faux LED" peak-meter display. (2) Significantly reduced the number of timer interrupts generated by this program by slowing down all updates to 10 per second -- previously meters updated 25x/second! (3) All volumes are represented as decibels, including the 0 to -48dB range of the hardware peak-meters, the 0 -to- -48dB&off attenuation for all inputs to the digital mixer, the 0 -to- -63dB attenuation of the analog DAC, and the +18 -to- -63dB attenuation/amplification of the analog ADC. (4) All gtk "scale" widgets have dB legends; the "PageUp" "PageDown" keys allow rapid movement between the marked levels, and "UpArrow" and "DownArrow" allow fine-adjustment. -- Niels Mayer http://nielsmayer.com PS: Why "mudita24" ? An alternate name to avoid confusion with "envy24control 0.6.0" until changes in this version propagate upstream. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Envy#In_philosophy "In Buddhism the third of the four divine abidings is mudita, taking joy in the good fortune of another. This virtue is considered the antidote to envy and the opposite of schadenfreude."

LinuxMusicians Monthly Round-Up #1 - August 2010

by Jeremy Jongepier

Dear all, I've started a new initiative under the umbrella of LinuxMusicians, namely publishing an editorial on Linux audio developments and Linux audio related news. My goal is to publish an editorial at the beginning of each month to cover what happened in the month before. The first editorial covering the month July is finished and published: http://linuxmusicians.autostatic.com/2010/08/05/editorial-august-2010 I'd really appreciate any feedback, remarks etc. and any input for the next edition is more than welcome. This time I mainly focused on the releases of new versions of apps and new projects. From now on I want to keep track of that so I can elaborate more on the news part. Best, Jeremy

JACK Network Manager 0.2.3.1

by Mike Cookson

After some talks with falktx I publiced new version, which has Makefile and (by my own initiative) Debian-related files. Since build system may store several builds, e.g. with various prefixes, Makefile manages by default last created build. To change default build run: $ ./configure --default-build=build_name Or run $ ./configure --builds to get list of available builds. Also, install script now has one argument to override install root (default is "/"). E.g., if you type: ./configure --prefix=/usr --buildname=build ./install ~/packages

[LAD] [ANN] guitarix-0.11.0 released

by Andreas Degert

On behalf of the guitarix team I'm proud to announce Guitarix Version 0.11 Guitarix is a simple Linux Rock Guitar amplifier and is designed to achieve nice thrash/metal/rock/blues guitar sounds. Guitarix uses the Jack Audio Connection Kit as its audio backend and brings to the jack audio graph a mono amplifier input/output port, and a FX mono input with two (stereo) output ports. Guitarix provides a jack midi input port to connect a midi controller (midi learn) and a (3 channel) jack midi output port, feed by a (scalable) mix of the tuner and a beat-detector. Release 0.11.0 comes with following changes : Users visible changes: - new version of the impulse response parameter editor. You can now graphically define a gain line to be applied to the IR data, e.g. emphasize a part of the early reflections or damping the reverb tail to make it fit to your guitar sound. - the multi-line distortion effect now has 4 frequency bands and is better optimized - fix regression from version 0.10.0: now the default preset file is created again if it doesn't exist (e.g. in new installations). Changes that might be interesting for Developers: We put the Guitarix widgets into a library, with the goal of making them usable independently from Guitarix. You can build it as shared library and there's a c++ (gtkmm) wrapper, a python wrapper and glade support. Check it out and look for examples in those directories, or just build a nice looking display with the glade editor, and of course ask in our Guitarix forum (it's still alpha). As a side note, Guitarix is now in debian (unstable), of course at the moment still the previous version 0.10. have fun _________________________________________________________________________ guitarix is licensed under the GPL. Project page with screenshots: http://guitarix.sourceforge.net/ download: http://sourceforge.net/projects/guitarix/ please report bugs and suggestions in our forum here: http://sourceforge.net/apps/phpbb/guitarix/ ________________________________________________________________________ For capture, guitarix uses the great 'jack_capture' (version >= 0.9.30) written by Kjetil S. Matheussen. If you don't have it installed, you can look here: http://old.notam02.no/arkiv/src/?M=D For extra Impulse Responses, guitarix uses the zita-convolver library, and, for up/down sampling we use zita-resampler, both written by Fons Adriaensen. If you don't have it installed, get it here: http://www.kokkinizita.net/linuxaudio/index.html We use the marvellous faust compiler to build the amp and effects and will say thanks to : Julius Smith http://ccrma.stanford.edu/realsimple/faust/ : Albert Graef http://q-lang.sourceforge.net/examples.html#Faust : Yann Orlary http://faust.grame.fr/ ________________________________________________________________________ For faust users : All used Faust dsp files are included in /guitarix/src/faust, the resulting cc files are in /guitarix/src/faust-generated The tools we use to convert (post-processing and plot) the resulting faust cpp files to the needed include format, stay in the /guitarix/tools directory. ________________________________________________________________________ regards Hermann Meyer, James Warden, Andreas Degert

At the same time new forms of methodologies inspired or powered by free software, participatory practices and peer-to-peer networks are fueling many Internet subcultures. Some of these emerging practices will lead to competitive social productions, while other will remain as pure artistic experiments. For example, a common hypothesis is that by adopting production and distribution methods based on free software and open standards and by sharing the sources of one's work with others, the collective knowledge base and aesthetic sensibilities can freely interact to explore uncharted, hybrid directions which no longer reflect the supremacy of a single idea. Such an assumption raises several questions: - Does the sharing of artworks "recipes" and tools help debunk the myth of the isolated design genius? - By leaving the possibility of ongoing development and refinement, is it possible to ever produce a "final" design? - Can these methods and technologies inspire new forms of creation or tools, beyond self-referential productions? - Is it wishful thinking to approach collaborative graphical design in the same way as an open source software project? - Is Free and Open Source licensing a catalyst for creation or does it add an extra level of complexity? - Can the limitation of one license trigger new forms of constrained creativity? We're currently seeking new, innovative media art and design works and projects focusing on the above theme and questions: - graphical artworks and installations - lectures - project presentations - software and hardware demos We're also seeking audiovisual performances that will take place during the festival evenings. The submitted projects must fit this focus and be made in a free/libre and open source environment, this includes both its optional dependencies or production tools and the operating system. We are asking you to publish the sources of your project under a free culture license of your choice or release it into the public domain. Projects that do not meet these criteria will not be considered. How to apply Submission form and a list of additional requirements are available at: http://makeart.goto10.org/call/ Extended deadline: *Monday 2nd August 2010* Incomplete or late applications will not be processed.
