LCA2013 - Multimedia and Music miniconf call for papers

by Jeremy Jongepier

We are pleased to announce that linux.conf.au 2013 (LCA2013) will once again include the Multimedia and Music miniconf. LCA2013 will be held in Canberra, Australia from 28 January to 2 February 2013, and the Multimedia and Music miniconf provides an opportunity for produces and consumers of multimedia and music content to meet and explore all aspects of production and playback of music, audio and video on open-source platforms. The Multimedia and Music miniconf call for papers is now open. We would love to see wide-ranging proposals from across the FOSS multimedia and music community: - from developers of open-source multimedia and music software, discussing new and upcoming features, clever solutions to problems or interesting ideas they are exploring - from users who have built up a workflow which they want to share - from anyone who is doing awesome things with open-source audio and video software that they want to tell the world about Presentation slots of 20 and 50 minutes (plus 5 minutes question time) will be available, with the number of 50 minute talks being determined by the number of proposals received. Past Multimedia and Music miniconfs have featured both user-focused tutorials and talks aimed at developers; please browse our past miniconf websites to see the diverse range of presentations we have had in the past: * http://www.annodex.org/events/lca2013_mmm/#previous To submit a proposal please email your proposal to one of the organisers as described on our "Call for papers" page at: http://www.annodex.org/events/lca2013_mmm/pmwiki.php/Main/CallForPapers The call for papers is open-ended but priority will be given to those who submit proposals prior to 30 October 2012. For more information about the Multimedia and Music miniconf please contact either Jonathan Woithe (jwoithe(a)atrad.com.au) or Silvia Pfeiffer (silviapfeiffer1(a)gmail.com).

Projucer - real-time interactive coding with the JUCE library

by Kaspar Bumke

Just spotted on YouTube: http://youtu.be/imkVkRg-geI For those that don't know, JUCE is a monolithic C++ library that helps you write cross-platform audio applications. I am a bit concerned by the time it seems to be taking to do JIT compilation. What do you think? Would you use it?

Listing lowest and highest frequencies in a track?

by Bearcat M. Şándor

Folks, Is there a Linux program out there that i can throw a wave file at that will tell me what the lowest and highest frequencies are in it, where they are and at what dB they occur? I was listening to some dubstep today and wondering how low it really went. I would bet that most of the "bassy" music i have doesn't even go below 30 hz. Thanks, Bearcat

Re: [LAD] Kontakt sampler format (Chicken Systems Translator)

by Tom's Lists

I know this is somewhat already covered in this discussion, but this is straight from the head of Chicken Systems (a friend of mine). I asked him if there was any way beyond converting the samples (which Translator can do just fine) to get the Kontakt samples into Linux, and this was his reply: "All the scripting is lost, there's nothing really to convert it to since no other platform is as intelligent. Of course, EastWest uses Python and I forgot what MachFive 3 uses, but I'm not sure how demanded such a conversion is." So, until NI ports Kontakt to Linux, or someone else makes an equivalent or better sampler for Linux, we'll have to stick with some form of Windows. Unless I've missed it, has anyone gotten it to work with Wine, or through Windows in VirtualBox? I'm building a machine that will have most versions of Windows as VirtualBoxes, just to experiment with it, & to get away from Windows, albeit slowly, but this isn't my DAW, just a strong Linux (Fedora 17) box. -Tom Dyrnwyn Studios & Workshops Blomkest, MN

Pianoteq VST - point of information

by Edward Diehl

I wanted to mention that Pianoteq does provide a linux VST which does work in Ardour and Qtractor. However, the default version provides 5 output channels which Ardour does not seem to like (because it expects stereo output). However, if you append "_2chan" to the plugin library name (e.g. Pianoteq.so to Pianoteq_2chan.so) , the plugin will output only 2 channels and work happily in Ardour.
