Support for Steinberg UR22 (Yamaha USB chipset 0499:1509)?

by cullinan＠rocketmail.com

Hi, there! I just got a Steinberg UR22 USB<->Audio / MIDI interface for my semi-prof. DJ work. I am working on Linux (only), but wanted to give this new product a chance. Well, it's basically a nice device but with an Yamaha chipset in it which seem unfortunately not supported from the latest (3.7.9) linux kernel(s). My questions are: - How likely is it to get this device fully supported on linux? - What needs to be done to get this device fully supported? I am an electrical engineer and did some linux device driver development in the past on some DMA stuff, but I am quite new to linux audio. But I am willing to help somewhere... I could try to reverse-engineer the USB stuff on Windows with the usbmon/usbsnoop/libusb things... But if it's too much work, to get it working, I could also just decide to send it back to Steinberg and thank them for not supporting Linux with their products. The USB information I could get is: $ aplay -l doesn't list that device $ lsusb ... Bus 002 Device 016: ID 0499:1509 Yamaha Corp. ... (See the more comprehensive $ lsusb -v below...) Related USB devices are: 0499:1501 Yamaha 0499:1507 Yamaha THR10 0499:1509 Yamaha Steinberg UR22 (what I am talking about) 0499:150c Yamaha THR10C Related search resuls are: Getting a Steinberg CI1 USB audio interface to work http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1696336 Yamaha THR10 amp / USB2.0 audio interface http://linux-audio.4202.n7.nabble.com/Yamaha-THR10-amp-USB2-0-audio-interfa… Thank you, Clemens (different one as in last link) -----8<----- $ lsusb -v -d 0499:1509 Bus 002 Device 014: ID 0499:1509 Yamaha Corp.

Is dynamics interpolation available in linuxsampler?

by Nikita Zlobin

Last time i tried to make a roll with G-Town Church Bassdrum, but it appears ugly. Did not try to humanize timing, but expecting it much better with interpolation. May be, it is some hidden feature, which is not used in most freeware gig and sfz banks?

A request for a simple app

by Alex Stone

I've been working with large lscp files, over a hundred .idfs for muse 2, etc, for sometime now, and i'm pretty well knackered from manually creating large monolithic instrument config files of some sort or another, for the same sample library set, across apps. I propose the following, and i'm wiling to put some money in someone's pocket for this: A simple app (CLI is ok but GUI based preferred) that: 1) automatically converts lscp files containing single or multiple midi instrument maps into individual midnam files. 2) automatically converts muse2 .idf files into midnam files. 3) converts midnam files into muse2 .idf files Obviously needs to work properly, and create correct ( auto app checked) midnam and .idf files. App needs to be opensource (obviously), and public, for those other poor souls who have to struggle with large instrument files, particularly those using large sample libs with copious articulations per instrument, and for whom automation of these excruciating data processing tasks would save massive amounts of time and effort. Thanks, and if you're interested, contact me privately, Alex Stone.

JACK latency chart

by Joel Roth

Hi all, I once saw a helpful chart showing how latency propagates through the JACK graph, through the capture and playback ports of each node. Can anyone provide a link? I want to make sure I understand correctly, that my app's latency callback should be checking capture latency at the input ports and setting playback latency on the output ports. Thanks, Joel -- Joel Roth

JAudioLibs (JNAJack, etc.) code on GitHub

by Neil C Smith

Hi All, Just a note that I've extracted JNAJack (Java bindings for JACK) from the Praxis LIVE repository, along with other elements of the JAudioLibs code, and it's now on GitHub at https://github.com/jaudiolibs Should make it easier for people to work with (and contribute to!) the code. Downloads and other facilities are still on the Google Code site at http://code.google.com/p/java-audio-utils/ for now. Best wishes, Neil -- Neil C Smith Artist : Technologist : Adviser http://neilcsmith.net Praxis LIVE - open-source, graphical environment for rapid development of intermedia performance tools, projections and interactive spaces - http://code.google.com/p/praxis OpenEye - specialist web solutions for the cultural, education, charitable and local government sectors - http://openeye.info

Mixing audio: Implementing pan and balance

by Tim E. Real

Hi, I need some advice, clear up some confusion: I noticed our app uses this pan formula: vol_L = volume * (1.0 - pan); vol_R = volume * (1.0 + pan); where volume is the fader value, pan is the pan knob value which ranges between -1.0 and 1.0, and vol_L and vol_R are the factors to be applied to the data when sending a mono signal to a stereo bus. When pan is center, 100% of the signal is sent to L and R. At pan extremities, the signal is boosted by 3dB. But according to [1], we should be using a Pan Law [2], where pan center is around 3dB to 6dB down and pan extremities is full signal. So I want to change how we mix mono -> stereo and use true Pan Law. I could add a Pan Law selector, seems like it might be useful for various studio acoustics. Then I noticed we use the same formula above to apply 'balance' (using the same pan knob) when sending a stereo signal to a stereo bus. But according to [3] we should be using a true balance control, not those same pan factors above. And according to [1]: "Note that mixers which have stereo input channels controlled by a single pan pot are in fact using the balance control architecture in those channels, not pan control." So I want to change how we mix stereo -> stereo and use true balance. But then I checked some other apps to see what they do. In an unofficial test I noticed that QTractor seems to do the same thing, that is, when pan is adjusted on a stereo track, one meter goes up while the other goes down. RG seems not to have stereo meters and Ardour I couldn't seem to make pan affect the meters, I will try some more. My questions: Is the pan formula above popular? What is the consensus on stereo balance - use a Pan Law, being the formula above or otherwise, or use a true balance? What should I do in the remaining case sending a stereo signal to a mono bus? If I am using a Pan Law as balance, the two signals will have already been attenuated at pan center so I could simply sum the two channels together. But if instead I use true balance, at center the two signals are 100%. So should I attenuate the signals before summing them to a mono bus? Currently as our pan formula above shows, there would be no attenuation. Thanks. Tim.
