Hi lists,
my little report on the lac-concerts and some other subjects of the lac
in Karlsruhe will be broadcasted tomorrow on SWR2 JetztMusik Magazin at 23h.

i, for one, used the past 3 days to write a python module named
"audiogui", which provides widgets to mimick the look and feel of
traditional audio hardware panels (i dare you to start an audio ui
design war with me). it will be the base for providing an engine which
renders panels from stylesheets, to be used with plugins of aldrin - but
of course that whole thing could be connected to an OSC library and
control any DSSI host.
the basic idea was to imitate the design seen from native instruments
plugins and propellerheads reason. of course i'm damn proud that the
results look so well ;)
here is a demo showing the three widgets DecoBox, Knob and LCD, with
different settings applied.

in case you want to play with it, the module is based on PyGTK+ and
Cairo, and can be checked out from the aldrin svn.
http://svn.zeitherrschaft.org/aldrin/trunk
you find the scripts in share/aldrin, they are named audiogui.py and
lcdfont.py. run audiogui.py for above demonstration.

With ongoing preparation to "Integrate End User and Developer Resources
at linuxaudio.org" (workshop @ LAC2007) we are proud to announce a first
version of Dave's linux-sound application index as public-wiki:
http://apps.linuxaudio.org/
this is by far no cute end-user resource portal yet, but a first
step in merging data and setting up a prototype back-end!
We are looking for interested people to contribute at various levels and
suggest to use the mailing list for general discussion while keeping
dokuwiki and style related requests at
http://apps.linuxaudio.org/wiki:open_discussion
Further [major] back-end development on http://apps.linuxaudio.org/ will
probably not happen until LAC2007, but we are interested to tweak the
look and feel, fix bugs, and collect feedback.
We're also looking for qualified LAU's and LAD's to verify and maintain
the current content with editor privileges, responsibilities and deeds.
next up: docs.linuxaudio.org:
- static documentation (docbook, LateX, [x]html)
- slides and presentations (PDF, ps, png jpg,..??)
- music (collaborate with or outsource to freesound et al.)
- include (external?) video presentations, movies, etc
- source code (coding examples: wiki-page; svn-mirror/server ??)
for each hosted documentation there will be an option for user
annotation(s). eg. wiki-discussion page, blog-comments,
email-notify[-mailing-list]? - some of it will be merged with
apps.linuxaudio.org which will provide automatic indexing; details
remain to be discussed.
some of the intended supported formats imply moderation / maintained
upload or installation of static documentation. - the ring of
maintainers could evolve with key-signatures, and parts of the system
may become completely open. - suggestions:

Dear list members,
On the 1st of march at 0h00 GMT, the three LA* lists will be moved to
linuxaudio.org. What will it change for you ? not much :
¤ The new address you send your posts to will be :
linux-audio-announce(a)linuxaudio.org for LAA
linux-audio-dev(a)linuxaudio.org for LAD
linux-audio-user(a)linuxaudio.org for LAU
¤ All the user currently subscribed will be migrated automatically,
you do NOT need to create a new account
¤ Your password will be reset in the process, so will your parameters.
Sorry we cannot do better than this... To get a password reminder (the
first one should be automatically generated), you will find the lists
home page at http://lists.linuxaudio.org/
¤ The former addresses will still be valid, but when you will post to
them, you will receive a reminder asking you to post on the new list.
To avoid having duplicates when merging archives, the posts on the
former addresses _will not be received_ by the list members.
¤ We will have a bigger and faster server, a spamassasin setup and
interfacing with mailman is also in progress so administration will be
easier _and_ moderation will be less pain (thus faster to do).
I hope everything will go smoothly. If any of you run into trouble I
will be on #LAD(a)freenode.net during the migration and available at
"mobarre at linuxaudio dot org" which will be the new list admin
address to help you with anything you'd need.
Cheers,

Dear all,
thanks to many submissions from yourselves, we have been able to create an
extensive program for the Linux Audio Conference in Berlin in March,
featuring many paper presentations, tutorials, workshops and demos, and not
to forget concerts on each night of the conference.
(btw, if you still have some linux-made songs you would like to send in for
the Radio music, feel free to do so; there are no restrictions on genre
there, and we especially created that category to give a place for linux-made
recordings).
Below is the press release.
Hope to see you all in Berlin!
------------
The 5th Linux Audio Conference is taking place in Berlin (Germany) in 2007.
The TU-Berlin is hosting the conference in cooperation with people of the
Humboldt University Berlin, the Berliner Künstlerprogramm of the DAAD, the
festival MaerzMusik, the Instituto Cervantes Berlin and the Tesla Berlin.
The conference shows once per year important developments in the subject
making music with Linux and open source tools. Invited is everyone who is
interested in the possibilities of this platform.
The LAC is offering a wide range of workshops, tutorials and hands on demos.
There will be presentations on the subjects Computer Music, Music Production,
Drivers and Sound Architectures and Audio Distributions.
The LAC aims at bringing together developers and users of Linux and
open source audio software with the goal of information sharing, project
discussion and music.
Each day of the conference there is a concert which features music composed
and created with open source software. One of the highlights of the conference
is the demonstration of a auditorium of the TU-Berlin, that has been equipped
with a new spatialisation system (Wave Field Synthesis), driven by a
Linux-Cluster.
The program of the conference is now online and (free) registration is
possible.
Free admission to all events except to the concerts at the Tesla and the
MaerzMusik
LAC2007 22.3. to 25.3.2007, TU-Berlin, www.lac.tu-berlin.de
Hi all,
As discussed previously on this list, we are getting ready for a
migration of the three LA* lists to linuxaudio.org.
Many things are done to make our list better. One of them concerns
archives. As you may have noted, LA* archives found on
music.columbia.edu date back to 2002. Ico told me that there used to
be an LA list hosted somewhere else way before that (1998).
Having to do this migration, we will also migrate our archives. If
possible it would be cool to be able to merge also the older archives
in the whole.
The question is, do some of you have any idea where I could find these
archives, if they still exit...
Cheers,

Another alternative, in case you like lisp (who knows), is to use snd with
the realtime extension:
http://www.notam02.no/arkiv/doc/snd-rt/
I used it to make the san dysth softsynth:
http://www.notam02.no/~kjetism/sandysth/
Its performance is pretty good, but not perfect. So if that is
important, you can at least you can use snd to make a draft of your
program before you do some hardcore c or assembler programming.
(well, you can define your own functions in c though)
Hi, I need to build an application that can process sound from an
external instrument (a midi keyboard, for example). I also need to
create a graphic interface and I'd like to know which language maybe
best to do this.
Any suggestion?
Thanks, bye.
Hi!
I'm sorry to ask that here, but it seems I can't get an anser anywhere else.
Does the libstdc++ support UTF-8 strings? Or is there some simple example
code snippet somewhere to derive/modify something which would fullfill this
need?
Kindest regards and thanks!
