Hi all,
Unfortunately we've had a bit of a hosting transition hiccup at
lv2plug.in and the mailing list has been lost. There is a new list at
the same location, but you will have to subscribe again. Sorry for the
inconvenience.
In related news. http://lv2plug.in is now a Trac installation, feel free
to sign up and use the Wiki and ticket system for anything LV2 related.
The timeline gives a nice overview of development happening in the SVN
repository as well, which should make it easy to keep up with progress.
I'd be interested to hear about any other (feasible) services people
think would be useful to run at http://lv2plug.in
Cheers,

I'm familiar with JACK but not at all with Pulse, but while doing a
little research to sum up various Linux audio APIs on a user group
list I keep seeing claims* that at first sight suggest Pulse is
capable of doing the audio routing with low latency that we know and
love JACK for doing.
Can someone sum up the differences between JACK and Pulse in this regard?
James.

Hello all,
after reading ASLA docs for some hours I've not found an
answer to the following:
Given the ALSA sequencer client and port _names_, find the
numbers required to set up a connection (a 'subscription'
in ALSA lingo).
Anyone knows how to do this ?
Ciao,

If I enable it with the "threadirqs" boot parameter, it hangs few
seconds after starting jack (using a Focusrite Saffire PRO 40) and I
have to hard reboot.
Where should I report the bug?

Hello all,
A new release of jack_delay is available at
<http://kokkinizita.linuxaudio.org/linuxaudio/downloads>
> From the README:
jack_delay 0.4.0 - 18/04/2011
-------------------------------
Jack_delay can be used to measure the round-trip latency of a soundcard.
To do this, start the program and connect like this:
jack_delay -> playback_port -> cable from soundcard output to input -> capture port -> jack_delay
Jack_delay generates a signal consisting of 13 sine waves, measures the
phase difference between the input and output for each of these, and
computes the delay from those phase differences. The algorithm used is
one developed originally for satellite ranging - that is measuring the
distance between a satellite and a ground station.
With a good sound card jack_delay will measure the round-trip latency
with an accuracy of around 1/1000 of a sample. The assumption is that
the delay is more or less independent of frequency. The actual value
displayed is the one for a frequency of 1/16 of the sample rate. The
phase measurement for this frequency of course only provides a result
in the range of 0..16 samples. The other frequencies are used to extend
this interval to 4096 * 16 samples, more than a second at 48 kHz.
This release should be much less sensitive to frequency-dependent delay
than the previous ones.
The following options are avaiable (use jack_delay -h to see them):
-O playback port connect output to named port.
-I capture port connect input to named port.
-E show excess latency instead of full latency.
Using -E requires -O and -I, as the the computation depends on
the latency values reported by jack for the ports used.
The excess latency is the measured value minus the expected one,
taking into account any corrections set by jack's -I and -O options.
That is, if you have the right values for these options, then the
value displayed with -E will be at most +/- half a sample.
To determine the correct values for jack's -I and -O, set both
of them to zero ('default' in qjackctl) and measure the latency
using the -E option. Then set each of the -I and -O options to
half the value displayed.

the "excess" value is generally on the order of several tens of
samples in each direction. it can reach as high as the low hundreds.
with USB audio (and potentially some firewire devices, the excess can
even get up into the thousands, but its dependent on a variety of
factors. this assumes you are doing the obvious thing and measuring a
loopback via a D/A and A/D converter pair.
for reference, my RME HDSP system, connected to a Frontier Designs
Tango24 converter, meaures 68 samples of total excess latency, so
about 34 in each direction.
One thing I forgot to mention: this release of jack_delay
requires a Jack version providing the new latency API.
AFAIK that is Jack >= 0.120.1

Hi everybody.
This is the second release of aj-snapshot, which is a command line
utility to store/restore ALSA and/or JACK connections.
For more information: goto http://aj-snapshot.sourceforge.net/
Changes in this release:
- Ask for confirmation when the user saves a snapshot over an existing file.
and added the '-f/--force' option to override this.
- Added the '-q/--quiet' option. With this option aj-snapshot will not report
any information about storing/restoring connections. This includes messages
about connections that aj-snapshot failed to restore, because they are not
considered an error in this context.
- Added an '-i/--ignore' option with which you can tell aj-snapshot to ignore
certain clients when storing/restoring connections.
- Made the connection messages more readable.
To clone the git repository:
git clone git://aj-snapshot.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/aj-snapshot/aj-snapshot
Let me know if you have any questions...
I hope you enjoy :-)

Hi all,
It's been online for a while, but with 4 weeks to go: the
conference-programme is now officially fixed:
http://lac.linuxaudio.org/2011/?page=program
and for your xPhone or googol-calendar:
http://lac.linuxaudio.org/2011/vcal.php
Should you attend LAC, please register if you have not done so:
http://lac.linuxaudio.org/2011/?page=registration
If you can not make it to Maynooth: live streams will be available
during the conference and the recordings and papers will also be
published online afterward.
Looking forward to seeing you in Maynooth!
PS. We are going to provide some printed copies of the programme at
the conference registration-desk, but if you wish to do a colorful print
yourself:
http://lac.linuxaudio.org/2011/printprogram.php
Set your browser's File->Print->Options->Print background colors
or simply run:
