This is great advice when writing for ANY plugin standard. I go as far as to reject (different) plugins with duplicate URIs to promote this practice Best Regards, Jeff

by Patrick Shirkey

From the "Better Late than Never Dept"... Announcing the _*Linux Audio Musicians Best of 2010 mix*_ Download and view the full playlist of 116 tracks here: http://djcj.org/audio/lam/ Listen to the continuous radio stream here: http://radio.linuxaudio.org/lam2010.ogg.m3u **************************************************************************** Congratulations!!! to the Artists and Bands that made 2010 a bumper year for well produced and unique music from the Linux Audio Community. This mix is the biggest yet with over 100 tracks included and over 12 hours of music to listen to. A hefty selection of guitar music and rock productions are included in this years mix to complement the large range of electronica. The variation of styles and genres is superb and as expected there was lots of off the wall and challenging music produced during the 2010 period also. The playlist has been ordered in terms of Genre/Style to make it easier to separate the tracks out for those with specific tastes and to ensure the radio stream flows nicely. If you feel that there is a track missing please feel free to contact me with details. This is a snapshot of the year so lets make it as complete as possible. Enjoy! **************************************************************************** -- Patrick Shirkey Boost Hardware Ltd.

Suggestions for new HW

by Fons Adriaensen

Hello all, Yesterday my main home system decided to 'meet its creator'. The power supply sort of exited in a funny way, producing unhealthy odors and some noises. I can still start the HW using a spare PS, but the / filesystem seems beyond repair, with fsck freezing the machine when trying to fix it - never seen that before. Strangely enough I can still mount it and was able to copy some directories from it that were more recent than the last backup. I wonder if it's just the file system being damaged or the disk HW itself. Anyway after 8 years it's probably time for some new HW, and I've been considering one of the 'Shuttle' boxes. Florian Faber already recommended them some time ago, but I wonder if anyone out there can report on them, or offer some advice as to which series to prefer, what to avoid, etc. TIA, -- FA

MIDI maps : C++ functions

by Harry Van Haaren

Hey guys, I'm wondering how to approach creating a MIDI map to all controllers available in the GUI. Needless to say I can hard code in a MIDI CC, and from JACK's process callback call the function that I want to map that control to, but that's a little rigid. I like Ardour's one-click map idea, and I'm wondering how its implemented. Here's what I concluded so far: On mouse_3 down, pop up dialog, send message to JACK process to keep next MIDI input stored somewhere. That's the CC to map Where I'm getting stuck is how to make each CC point to a different "parameter" in the software, or a different function in the code. Function pointers come to mind, but somehow I don't like that idea much. Creating a generic interface to map every control in the entire engine might work, but I think that may be a little overkill? I'd be interested to hear how various projects handles this internally, if anybody wants to chip in? Cheers, -Harry

accepted use of sync callback

by Lieven Moors

Hi everybody, I have a question. I'm trying to figure out how to deal with transport locate changes in my arpeggiator "flarps". I am generating MIDI events only when necessary, so I'm not able to rewind the state of the program. I only keep track of Note-off messages, because they can be sent out in the future, to allow overlapping notes. All the MIDI notes are calculated relative to each other. So I keep track of time internally. So I only need to know the first frame of the period, when somebody does a jack_transport_locate, and I need to know when this happens so I can initialize the program state. My question is, if it would be acceptable to use the sync callback to do this, because strictly speaking, my client wouldn't be a slow sync client. Is there a more preferable way to do this, or should I do major redesign, and use the time jack provides with each period directly. I would be very glad with any of your insights or suggestions. greetings, lievenmoors

persisting jack_connect problem (connection process doesn't finish)

by Julien Claassen

Hello Everyone1 Sorry for cross posting. I just repulled Jackmp from svn, but the problem continues. Looking at the jack_connect source I can't see anything wrong, so it seems, that the server doesn't properly notify jack_connect/jack_disconnect of the finishing of the connection/disconnection process. Does anyone else have that problem or does anyone have a possible solution? many thanks and warm regards Julien -------- Music was my first love and it will be my last (John Miles) ======== FIND MY WEB-PROJECT AT: ======== http://ltsb.sourceforge.net the Linux TextBased Studio guide ======= AND MY PERSONAL PAGES AT: ======= http://www.juliencoder.de

by torbenh

hi... we are about a week in the merge window, and linus merged the force threaded irq handlers already. This means, that the most important feature of the -rt patches is now in mainline. we sould start testing it during the rc cycle, i think. (there will not be too many people turning force threaded handler on) i will try to write up somthing about kernel config and boot parameters once i have a kernel running in my kvm later this week. -- torben Hohn
