[linux-audio-announce] JackMiniMix 0.1 Released

by Nicholas J Humfrey

JackMiniMix is a simple console based JACK client that mixes a number of stereo inputs into a single stereo output. The gains of each of the input channels can be queried and controlled by sending it OSC messages. http://www.ecs.soton.ac.uk/~njh/jackminimix/ I have also written a perl module which talks OSC to the mixer, making it very easy to control. http://search.cpan.org/~njh/Audio-JackMiniMix/ nick.

[linux-audio-announce] 64 Studio 0.6.0 released

by Daniel James

Hello all, 64 Studio is a native x86_64 Linux distribution, based on Debian testing and designed specifically for creative desktop users. Version 0.6.0 alpha has just been released, and is available for download as an iso image of 576MB from: http://images.64studio.com/ After burning to CD, this image can be used to install a 64-bit Debian system with X.org and the Gnome 2.10 desktop. The distribution features Linux kernel 2.6.13 with Ingo Molnar's real-time preemption patches and a selection of creative packages, including: amSynth 1.1.0 Ardour 0.99 Audacity 1.2.3 Blender 2.37 Cinepaint 0.19 Dirac 0.51 Flac 1.1.2 gCDMaster 1.2.1 the Gimp 2.2.9 gThumb 2.2.6 gtKam 0.1.12 Hydrogen 0.9.2 Inkscape 0.42 Jack Rack 1.4.4 jackd 0.100 JackEQ 0.4.0 Jamin 0.95 Kino 0.75 Ktoon 0.7.3 Linuxsampler 0.3 Meterbridge 0.9.2 Muse 0.7.1 Noteedit 2.8.0 Qsampler 0.1.1 Rosegarden4 1.0 Scribus 1.2.2 Seq24 0.7.0 Speex 1.1.11 swh-plugins 0.4.14 Tagtool 0.12 tap-plugins 0.7.0 Time Machine 0.3.0 totem-gstreamer 1.2.0 vorbis-tools 1.0.1 Yafray 0.0.7 Plus a selection of the usual internet and office tools. Known limitations in this release: * SATA disc support may be patchy, depending on interface chipset * pcmcia-cs package is not included (available from a Debian mirror) * No proprietary media codecs included in the base install Please note that this release is provided for testing only, and comes with no warranty. There are probably plenty of bugs, which is why we're calling this release 'alpha'. But the software does actually install and run on our Opteron, Athlon 64 and Turion test hardware, and is quite usable already. If you would like to send feedback on this release or make a suggestion for improvement, please see the http://64studio.com/wiki/TracTickets page or join our development mailing list at: http://64studio.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/64studio-devel Cheers!

[linux-audio-announce] ANN: "Modern Computer Music and DSP Programming Tools" Workshop in Mainz/Germany

by Albert Graef

Dear LAD'ers, our Department of Music-Informatics at the Johannes Gutenberg University of Mainz is organizing a little workshop with introductory courses on Faust, SuperCollider and Q by Yann Orlarey (Grame, Lyon), Stefan Kersten (TU Berlin) and me. The workshop is sponsored by the "Interdisciplinary Working Group of Music and Arts Informatics" of the Johannes Gutenberg University, so it's free, and takes place at the Institute of Musicology (Philosophicum, Jakob-Welder-Weg 18 on the campus) on Tuesday, Dec 20th 2005, from 14:00 h to 18:00 h. If you'd like to participate, then please *please* register (just mail me at Dr.Graef(a)t-online.de or my secretary, Mrs. Felicitas Volke, at volke(a)uni-mainz.de). Registration is free but mandatory, as we can only accommodate a limited number of participants. If you register, please also indicate whether you can bring your own laptop, as the Linux PC and MIDI equipment available for the workshop is even more restricted than the amount of available chairs, coffee and Christmas cookies. ;-) More information can be found in the attached text file. Information on how to find us on the campus is available at http://www.uni-mainz.de/zentral/75.php. You can also contact me at Dr.Graef(a)t-online.de if you have any further questions. Please feel free to pass this around to your friends, colleagues and other mailing lists as you see fit. Cheers, Albert Graef -- Dr. Albert Gr"af Dept. of Music-Informatics, University of Mainz, Germany Email: Dr.Graef(a)t-online.de, ag(a)muwiinfa.geschichte.uni-mainz.de WWW: http://www.musikinformatik.uni-mainz.de/ag Workshop Modern Computer Music and DSP Programming Tools Location: Johannes Gutenberg-Universität Mainz, Philosophicum, Jakob-Welder-Weg 18, Alter Fakultätssaal (Room P 01-185) Date: Tuesday, Dec 20th 2005, from 14:00 h to 18:00 h Workshop language: English The number of participants is limited, (free) registration is required. Registration: Tel.: +49 (0)6131 3925142, Email: volke(a)uni-mainz.de Programme: 14:00 h Albert Gräf (University of Mainz): Functional Multimedia Programming with Q 15:00 h Yann Orlarey (Grame): FAUST Coffee Break 16:00 h Stefan Kersten (Technical University of Berlin): SuperCollider 18:00 h End 14:00 h Albert Gräf: Functional Multimedia Programming with Q This presentation gives a hands-on introduction to the equational programming language "Q", and some of its facilities for multimedia programming. Q can best be described as a kind of modern-style "functional scripting language." Q's multimedia library comprises interfaces to Grame's MidiShare and Faust, as well as an OSC-based SuperCollider interface, and thus provides the necessary tools to create advanced computer music applications in the context of a very-high-level, non-imperative programming language. Albert Gräf is head of the Dept. of Music-Informatics at the Institute of Musicology of the Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz. His research interests include the mathematical theory of music and advanced functional programming tools for computer music and other real-time multimedia applications. 15:00 h Yann Orlarey: FAUST FAUST (Functional AUdio STreams) is a programming language for real-time signal processing and synthesis that targets sample-level high-performance signal processing applications and audio plugins. FAUST proposes an innovative approach to signal processing that combines two programming models: functional programming and block diagram composition, in a highly structured textual syntax that can be compiled into efficient C/C++ code. The presentation will give an overview of the main features of the language and its compiler through several simple and practical examples. Composer and researcher in computer music, Yann Orlarey is currently the Scientific Director of Grame - Centre National de Création Musicale in France. His main research interests are music programming languages, with a particular focus on lambda-calculus and functional programming, and real-time distributed systems. He is the author and co-author of various musical softwares and systems including MidiShare. 16:00 h Stefan Kersten: SuperCollider SuperCollider is a real-time synthesis engine and object oriented composition language. This course introduces the architecture and the working environment on OSX and Linux and provides an introduction to basic synthesis techniques and sequencing strategies. Stefan Kersten (*1978) is currently studying communication and computer science at the Technical University of Berlin. He has ported SuperCollider to Linux and is the author of SCUM, SuperCollider's GUI module for Linux. He uses SuperCollider for most of his projects in research and music.

[linux-audio-announce] fluxus 0.8

by Dave Griffiths

Apologies for crossposting... Fluxus is a scheme scripting environment for audio or osc driven 3D animation, and is designed to appeal to the livecoder in all of us. http://www.pawfal.org/Software/fluxus/ New online docs here: http://www.pawfal.org/Software/fluxus/docs/index.html What's new: * a particle primitive with modes for fast hardware points or textured sprites * object picking with (mouse-over) for interactivity * now uses jack natively (no more portaudio) * better html docs * (pdata-add) (pdata-copy) and (pdata-op) for accelerated primitive operations for flocking, deforming and texture effects * framedump now outputs jpgs * (has-collided) for physics driven events * distance based fogging supported * a lot more stuff cheers, dave http://www.pawfal.org/dave
