Hello all,
As posted before, kokkinizita.net went offline last week as the
result of some stupid but apparently uncorrectable issues with
my hosting service, hosteurope.de. They are flatly refusing to
put the site back online or allow me to create a new one.
The kokkinizita.net domain will appear again (I still own the
domain name), but this could take some time. Meanwhile the site
has been recreated at <http://kokkinizita.linuxaudio.org>.
You won't be able to access it until linuxaudio.org's DNS will be
updated to include this url, which will happen some time friday.
In the meantime, if you need something urgently, just add the line
kokkinizita.linuxaudio.org 198.82.152.114
to your /etc/hosts, but don't forget to remove it later.
Many thanks to Robin Gareus, Ico Bukvic and Virginia Tech for
providing this solution, and also to all people who suggested
alternative hosting.
For email, please use the from: address of this message, not
the gmail one I posted earlier (I'll still check it, but not
as frequently as I do now).
Ciao,

Hi,
I've forked the Specimen sampler to create Petri-Foo[1]. The main goal
of Petri-Foo was to make the ADSRs and LFOs independent from the items
they modulate (ie amplitude/pitch/etc). This has been achieved and is
quite nice to play with switching modulation sources on the go as a
sequences plays and the output is recorded.
I'm currently overhauling the sample-'editor'. So far I've ported the
deprecated GDK drawing code to Cairo, and prettified the display of
play start/stop and loop start/stop points and areas.
What I want to do next is explained here Sample editor zoom [2]
Your ideas would be welcome in how it should work. I'll try and
implement it. If you're interested subscribe to the Petri-Foo-Devel
list[3].
Please note though, it's not ready for general usage by inexperienced
users who don't know how to download and compile software from git
repo's nor for users who aren't expecting things to be broken.
Thanks,
James.

The other day I tried somthing unusual. I use 96 frame buffers and so I
allocate two of those for each of in and out, and then read/write
(blocking) 96 frames at a time - makes sense, yes?
Well no, it turns out that - without doing any processing - looping over
read/writing only 16 frames at a time is more robust.
How come?
The same effect can be observed with 64 frames and 16 appears to be the
optimal value in the loop.

Hello all,
Last week my mail and web host (Hosteurope in Germany) blocked my accound due
to failed credit card payments. I got no notice of this until it was
too late, and the
result is that I can't re-activate my account or even start a new one.
For anything urgent you can reach me via the gmail address used to
send this messsage.
I looking out for a new host, and hope to have the website online
before the end of the
week.
Ciao,

I am working on a rewrite (complete along with a rename) of my old
soundwall application.
I hope for this to be a jack app at some point soon.
I hope to make an initial release this weekend.
I am seeking advice on project hosting sites.
I am also seeking input on version control.
Anyone using git and Gitorious for this? (I have no experience with
git really but would be willing to learn it for the purposes of this
project if it makes sense.)
all the best and thanks in advance,
drew

I forked Specimen into Petri-Foo. Trouble is, I don't recall which version!
I have a Specimen SVN from the Arch User Repository (AUR)
Specimen SVN from zhevny.com
And of course, Petri-Foo which doesn't seem to bear exactness to
either of these (that is the parts of Petri-Foo which I haven't yet
altered).
This makes giving patches back kinda difficult.
The version of Specimen I have installed system wide (who knows where
it is from?) has spin buttons in the sample-editor for editing the
sample play/loop positions explicitly.
The version of Specimen that I forked Petri-Foo from did not (have the
spin buttons) so I copied them from (??? the specimen-build sub-dir
obtained via the AUR ??? ru sure?? ??).
The version of Specimen - r89 - from zhevny.com doesn't have the spin
buttons - unless it's in a "secret" branch which isn't default (i
don't have a clue how to 'browse' these things).
Consequently I have various diffs which maybe you can make sense of.
By some magic manipulation, you'll find either a) a new feature
providing explicit sample play/loop position editing via spin buttons
- or - b) a fix for the existing explicit sample play/loop position
editing via spin buttons which prevents the loop start/stop positions
from being incremented/decremented past the play start/stop positions.
Hope it helps someone.
If anyone can shed any light on the confusion I'd be grateful, thanks.
James.

Hi all,
Sorry for the annoying NEWB question
I'm starting an opensource project for a softsynth
I'd like to make it portable as possible so I'm using g++
I tried googling around for about two weeks now and can't really make up my mind
OSS/ALSA/JACK/PORTAUDIO etc...
they all look like they have their pros and cons
I need :
* lowest latency possible (latency kills!)
* easy development (I'm a decent coder)
* portability (preferably other os's as well - os/x or even god forbid win)
* Nice to have - easily deal with many different (standard) audio cards without actually having to develop drivers for them
I've looked at the code of some very cool OS softsynths and I each has it's own choice
What would you guys recommed?
Thanks
Jonathan
Hi
Today I receive a message from Bernardo Barros, he have ported the core
dsp code from the Guitarix Project to make SuperCollider plugins out of
each Guitarix effect/amp module.
May it is of some interest for SuperCollider users here.
