Hi Jay,
I took a look at MidiShare, but unfortunately it wont work on NetBSD as
it depends on a kernel module. I have tried using Linux, but gave up
when I couldn't get ALSA or OSS to recognise my USB MIDI interface, (a
Yamaha UX96). Under NetBSD it's recognised as soon as I plug it in.
I did Google around expecting there to be lots of convenient MIDI
libraries, but I couldn't find any. Is ALSA that good that no one uses
anything else? It seems to be overkill for System Exclusive stuff to
use a high level library though, especially as the details differ on
virtually every MIDI device.

Hi
I can't answer your question.. but this email has answered one of mine,
and I have successfully edited my asound.conf file to be able to do what
you are doing.. recording in through discrete channels and outputting
though discrete channels..
Maybe someone on the ardour list can answer us both by confirming that
this will allow multichannel recording on ardour (a possible solve to
the question I think you are asking)
cheers
Allan
P.S I'm still working on a way of then combining my Delta66 with my
intel8x0 (built-in to MOBO) so that I can use the stereo out of the
intel8x0 for monitoring while using the outputs of the Delta66 for
channel recording. (i.e. sending output into the mixing desk to use
outboard processing gear or for external mixdown of tracks)
cheers
Allan

Hi, I've been playing a lot with bristol synth and really love it. So
much so that I've been trying to 'Jackify' it. Actually, I'm pretty
much done, but can't figure out the internal audio format. Its
interleaved floats I think, but not normalised to [-1,1]. If any of
the developers are here could you help me out? I can hear noise, but I
need to tune the maths. TIA.

This synth has a mainboard running Linux inside :)
Seems like not only Stanton (Final Scratch) is relying on
Linux in the pro audio world these days ..

Hello
A friend and I have made a VST plugin as a college project, and would
like to open source it, and possibly port it to other plugin APIs. We
are considering the GNU GPL for our licence, which has lead to this
question: Does VST count as a special exception of being "anything that
is normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major
components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on
which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies the
executable," or should we follow the suggestion about [1]controlled
interfaces in the GPL FAQ?
