[linux-audio-announce] SilentJack version 0.1

by Nicholas J Humfrey

Hi, I have just released the first version of SilentJack: http://www.ecs.soton.ac.uk/~njh/silentjack/ SilentJack is a silence/dead air detector for the Jack Audio Connection Kit. It monitors the peak levels on a single JACK input port, and checks to see if they are below a specified theshold. SilentJack then runs a command after silence has been detected for a given number of seconds. It then waits for the command the finish, and waits for a grace period before detecting silence again. Hope it is of use to someone! nick.

[linux-audio-announce] [admin] music.columbia.edu server downtime

by Joern Nettingsmeier

hi everyone! a happy new year to all folks on the gregorian calendar, and a generic happy next 365 days to everyone else! the music department at columbia university are taking the list server down for an upgrade on the coming weekend, so expect interruptions for linux-audio-dev, linux-audio-user and linux-audio-announce. you will probably want to keep a copy of all the mails you send over the weekend, so that you can re-send them in case they end up in the bit bucket. let me take this opportunity to thank douglas irving repetto for many years of painless hosting and friendly help, and the entire music dept. for their generous donation of iron and bandwidth. kudos, guys! rumor has it that the new list server will be an os x machine. hopefully this will make the lists even more user-friendly and aesthetically pleasing than before ;) all the best, jörn -------- Original Message -------- Subject: music.columbia.edu server downtime Date: Mon, 2 Jan 2006 16:21:13 -0500 From: douglas irving repetto <douglas(a)music.columbia.edu> To: douglas(a)music.columbia.edu Hello, We will be upgrading the music.columbia.edu server this weekend. Hopefully all of the work will be done on Saturday, but it may extend into Sunday. music.columbia.edu will not be available during the downtime. That means no websites will be served, no email will be sent/delivered, no mailing lists will function, etc. I'll send an update later this week with info about some changes that you'll see on the new server.

[linux-audio-announce] MuSE 0.9.2 released

by jaromil

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 annunciazio' ! annunciazio' ! mari'! mari'! dyne.org autoproduzioni & the FreakNet Medialab proudly present: __ __ ____ _____ ___ ___ ____ | \/ |_ _/ ___|| ____| / _ \ / _ \ |___ \ | |\/| | | | \___ \| _| | | | | (_) | __) | | | | | |_| |___) | |___ | |_| |\__, | / __/ |_| |_|\__,_|____/|_____| \___(_) /_(_)_____| codename SHAVE :: the Multiple Streaming Engine :: http://muse.dyne.org this is RASTA SOFTWARE Jah Rastafari Livity bless freedom of creation 100% free software running on GNU/Linux and Apple/OSX :: What MuSE is about? This application is being developed in the hope to provide the Free Software community a user friendly tool for network audio streaming, making life easier for indypendent free speech radios wanting to stream via http on icecast servers. MuSE is an application for mixing, encoding, and network streaming of sound: it can transmit an audio signal by mixing together sound taken from files or also network, recursively remixing more MuSE streams. MuSE can simultaneously mix up to 6 encoded audio bitstreams (from files or network, ogg, mp3, wav and other common sound formats), plus an input signal from microphone. MuSE offers an intuitive interface to be operated in realtime, while it can also run slick from the Unix commandline. :: What's new in this release? This release greatly improves stability and usability. Xant hacked on MuSE thru the whole year realizing the porting to Carbon/OSX for the Apple operating system, which is now a branch of MuSE. Through the porting process, we discovered and fixed some important bugs and optimized the core engine. Now 0.9.2 backports several fixes from the current development branch, while removing unmantained GUIs (ncurses and gtk1) and unreliable features. We plan to join the branches in the 0.10 release series, plus we are planning to modularize MuSE even more and extract a library to expose its functionalities in various languages: python, perl, ruby etc. But the next major release will take some more time, requiring a relevant rewrite of the MuSE core to switch to float DSP and some other API changes, so meanwhile here is a version to which all GNU/Linux users are encouraged to upgrade. :: big up \o/ Thanks for the ospitality and CPU cycles for this release to: ASCII internet werkplatz and Montevideo Artlab (Amsterdam) Thanks for helping debug and test this release to: Bolo and Xname (ASCII), Camilo (PS28), Fredd (SubMultimedia), Vanilla (MovieTown), Godog (Debian), Matt Domsch, Jonathan Koren... and all the other hackers sending feedback, patches and good vibes! ***** Supported servers: You can use MuSE to stream both MP3 or Ogg/Vorbis sound format to a broadcast server, which means that for doing an online radio you still need to setup yours, or find one that let you stream. Such servers can be seen like antennas which amplify your signal and redistribute it to listeners. there are free software implementations of such technology! the ones supported by MuSE are: - - Icecast2 - http://icecast.org - can stream OGG & MP3 - - Litestream - http://litestream.org - can stream MP3 - - Darwin - http://developer.apple.com/darwin/projects/streaming - - Shoutcast - http://shoutcast.com - non free, runs on win32 - - various other broadcast servers streaming audio over http... ***** Supported players: MuSE streams via http, it doesn't uses multicast technology, nor RTP/RTSP, to have the widest possible range of compatible players. You can listen audio produced by MuSE from almost every personal computer and operating system, using one or more of the following: - - xmms - http://www.xmms.org - for GNU/Linux, *BSD, Sun, etc. - - mpg123 - http://www.mpg123.de - for various UNIX systems - - itunes - http://www.apple.com/itunes - on MacOSX - - zinf - http://www.zinf.org - on GNU/Linux and Win32 - - winamp - http://www.winamp.com - on all Win platforms - - mplayer - http://www.mplayerhq.hu - on all platforms - - videolan - http://www.videolan.org - on all platforms - - handeld devices and usb players supporting Ogg and Mp3 - - and... MuSE itself! ;) *** BOOT A CD AND STREAM WITH MUSE check out >>>>> http://dynebolic.org <<<<< GNU/Linux liveCD including a complete radio studio! ***** Internals: MuSE is written in C++ and is a multithreaded application. It reads streams using the included libmpeg library (mp3 format) and it can optionally link the OggVorbis library to read ogg files. For encoding the sound into mp3 or ogg it can link either or both LAME and OggVorbis as shared libraries. MuSE also features a user interface using the GTK+ widget library and a console interface using ncurses. Resampling of any input is done with bicubic interpolation to 44khz stereo format, then channels get mixed together and encoded to the desired quality by the selected codec. Separate threads are running for each decoder, the mixer and the encoders, while the flow is synced thru FIFO pipes which implement mutex locking and avoid well race conditions. All the functionalities of MuSE are quite well exposed thru a reusable API, which in fact was the one used to build the GUIs on top. Documentation for it is available on http://muse.dyne.org/codedoc If you are interested, you are very welcome to build new MuSE interfaces, there are still a lot of unexplored possibilities and this engine can be a realiable backend for radio automation interfaces and more. Get in touch with developers! join the mailinglist on http://lists.dyne.org/muse or peek into irc.freenode.net channel #dyne ***** Libraries: - - LAME (optional) Lame can be installed but is no more needed, in particular libmp3lame and the header lame.h must be properly installed. - - OGG VORBIS (optional) You can compile and install libogg and libvorbis on your machine before compiling MuSE; the configure script will recognize them and include support for decoding and mixing of .ogg files. - - GTK+ 2 (optional) + libxml and glib if libgtk and all the related libraries are present, MuSE will compile the GTK+ graphic user interface for interactive use and additional fun. - - SNDFILE (optional) if libsndfile is present then you'll be able to play uncompressed sound files like wav, aiff, snd, voc, pvf, mat, au, sf etc. ***** Compile and install: - - you can get latest version of lame: (if you already have lame and libmp3lame jump to point 2, after checking that version is >3.89) with 'lame --version' or download it from www.mp3dev.org/mp3 and follow the simple instructions to get installed this wonderful GPL mp3 encoder. - - install libogg and libvorbis: http://www.xiph.org/ogg/vorbis/index.html if you don't install any of the above, MuSE will be a simple player. - - compile: cd MuSE-x.x.x ; ./configure (or try ./configure --help to have listed some compile options) ; make ; make install *** for Debian users is much simplier: make a debian package and debian aided compilation from this source with a simple command: $ fakeroot debian/rules binary this command will build debian packages for you, ready to install! to KNOW MORE go to the website on http://muse.dyne.org ***** Report bugs BUG REPORTING is REALLY APPRECIATED! BUT TAKE CARE TO DO IT WELL: please ALWAYS REPORT the muse --version you are running and possibly run the binary with gdb giving us the backtrace of the error. if you understand the above, please go to http://bugs.dyne.org and submit a BUG!!! ***** PLEASE SUPPORT US! go here to see how >>>>>>>> http://dyne.org/donate.php <<<<<<<< This whole software was built by autonomous efforts and occasionally supported by non-profit organizations, while the development currently relies on the political beliefs of MuSE's authors, that there should be such a tool and it should be freely available to people willing to do online radio. If you can afford to donate us some money let us know, we also need new and old working hardware.

[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!
