[linux-audio-dev] libsndfile-1.0.11 and SD2 files

by Erik de Castro Lopo

Hi all, A new version of libsndfile was released just yesterday. I normally don't announce new versions here, but this release has one new feature which requires a bit of a special mention. With this release, libsndfile now supports the Sound Designer II file format as used by Apple Macintosh audio programs like Protools and Digital Performer. There are a couple of caveats with this format as described here: http://www.mega-nerd.com/libsndfile/FAQ.html#Q013 I now also have a Gnu Arch (like CVS but better) repository and there are some very brief instructions for accessing it here: http://www.mega-nerd.com/libsndfile/development.html I hope to expand that page in the near future. Cheers, Erik -- +-----------------------------------------------------------+ Erik de Castro Lopo nospam(a)mega-nerd.com (Yes it's valid) +-----------------------------------------------------------+ I have found that good programmers either do not make the kind of mistakes that Ada can prevent, or insert enough checks that they catch those mistakes about as efficiently as an Ada environment can. At that point, the use of Ada gives no further productivity advantage.

The great question is: Does there exist many ladspa-ui files? In case there are, the motivation to make such a library is quite high. Mathias, I have CC this to the dev-list. If you answer, please only use the dev-list. --

[linux-audio-dev] new song on-line

by Dave Phillips

Greetings: I've placed on-line a song I wrote and recorded with the help of Ardour, TiMidity, DOSemu & Seq+, a bunch of LADSPA plugins, a guitar, a harmonica, and my dulcet-toned vocal. It's here if you'd like to check it out: http://linux-sound.org/ardour-songs.html I'll be adding more pieces to the page Real Soon Now, but at least it's a beginning... :) Best, dp

[linux-audio-dev] Marian UCON CX soundcard

by Marije Baalman

Hi, does anyone know whether there are ALSA drivers available for the Marian UCON CX soundcard? (for details on the card: see www.marian.de) the card is quite new, but looks very promising, especially considering its price. some Marian salesman told me in May at the AES convention that someone was working on creating linux drivers. But as I am getting closer to actually being able to buy the card, I would like to know whether it works already under linux or not. sincerely, Marije --

[linux-audio-dev] Low-latency audio over IP

by asbjs＠stud.ntnu.no

I am working on what is called "distributed multimedia interaction", one purpose of which is to investigate possibilities for ensemble playing by remote parties, distributing the audio over IP networks. A crucial point is to achieve audio transmission with very low latency. If anyone could provide me with information on, or pointers to, open-source software for doing this, I would be grateful. (I have started to roll my own, but I can hardly defend duplicating work unnecessarily.) Other comments are of course also appreciated. With kind regards Asbjørn Sæbø -- Asbjørn Sæbø, post.doc.

Listen to recordings, and see links off of the "Research Projects" section, of: http://ccrma.stanford.edu/~cc/ Also see: http://www.cim.mcgill.ca/~jer/research/rtnm/history.html Also see: http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~lazzaro/nmp/index.html And if MIDI is a part of your system, I encourage you to look at RTP MIDI: http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~lazzaro/sa/pubs/txt/current-rtp-midi.txt http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~lazzaro/sa/pubs/txt/current-guide.txt and its implementation in sfront: http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~lazzaro/sa/sfman/user/install/ index.html#download --- John Lazzaro http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~lazzaro lazzaro [at] cs [dot] berkeley [dot] edu ---

AW: [linux-audio-dev] Low-latency audio over IP

by lists＠nescivi.de

Hi, --- Ursprüngliche Nachricht --- > > I would be very interested in any open source development in this > > direction! > > May I ask what your interests are? Are you working at related things? > I am interested to use this for Wave Field Synthesis. In the case of larger systems for that, it is necessary to distribute the audio over a network, to process it at different computers to supply sets of speakers with the right signals. For this a low-latency network is necessary, and sample-synchronisity. See my website at: http://gigant.kgw.tu-berlin.de/~baalman/ for info on the project I am working on. sincerely, Marije

[linux-audio-dev] [ANN] Ecasound 2.3.5 released, website addr. changed

by Kai Vehmanen

Hello all, here's version 2.3.5. Not too many changes, but still enough to warrant a new release. I also want to use this opportunity for the following: <*****IMPORTANT NOTICE*****> Ecasound website address has changed. The new address is http://www.eca.cx/ecasound This replaces the old (but still functional) website at http://www.wakkanet.fi/~kaiv/ecasound/. Note that also all the subpages have been modified. I've added some redirect pages, but the old site will only be available for a limited time. Please update any links that point to the old website. And also, my email address has changed (see from). </*****IMPORTANT NOTICE******> CVS is tagged with 'v2_3_5' as usual, and here are the full details: --- 1. Summary of changes Various Mac OS X specific build issues have been resolved. Minor changes have been made to the OSS soundcard support to avoid limitations of certain OSS drivers. Many minor updates have been made to user documentation and to build system scripts. --- 2. What is Ecasound? Ecasound is a software package designed for multitrack audio processing. It can be used for simple tasks like audio playback, recording and format conversions, as well as for multitrack effect processing, mixing, recording and signal recycling. Ecasound supports a wide range of audio inputs, outputs and effect algorithms. Effects and audio objects can be combined in various ways, and their parameters can be controlled by operator objects like oscillators and MIDI-CCs. A versatile console mode user-interface is included in the package. Primary platform for running Ecasound is GNU/Linux. Ecasound can also be run on many UNIX-derived systems such as FreeBSD, Mac OS X and Solaris. Limited support for Windows is available through Cygwin. Ecasound is licensed under the GPL. The Ecasound Control Interface (ECI) is licensed under the LGPL. --- 3. Changes since last release * With this version, Ecasound can now really be compiled for MacOS X. This has been tested on various 10.3.x systems. Also JACK support is reported to work under OS X. * Website address has changed: http://www.eca.cx/ecasound replaces the old http://www.wakkanet.fi/~kaiv/ecasound address. Please update any links that point to the old address. Full list of changes is available at <http://www.eca.cx/ecasound/history.php>. --- 4. Interface and configuration file changes None. --- 5. Contributors Patches - Accepted code, documentation and build system changes Berndtgen Manfred (1) -- ecasignalview build error Kai Vehmanen () -- various Bug Hunting - Reports that led to bugfixes (items closed) jcw (1) -- MacOS-X build errors. kito -at- gentoo-org (1) -- MacOS-X build errors.
