Hello,
Just joined the list.
I was toying with the following idea: take jamin's graphical multiband EQ and reshape it into an LV2 plugin. Is this a redundant idea in case someone else is already working on something similar ?
Just let me know before I start looking into this.
Cheers,
J.
Heya!
Doing (audio) infrastructure work on Linux? If so, please make to sure
to join us at the Linux Plumbers Conference 2009 in Portland/Oregon in
September. I will be doing an Audio track there and would like to make
sure that everyone who does audio infrastructure work submits a
paper, or at least attends, or maybe just knows about this conference!
It's a conference about the kernel-userspace interfacing, about the
lower levels in our software stack.
Last year we had a very successfuly track about Audio and this year we
will hopefully have a successfuly track again. Last year among the
speakers we had Takashi Iwai (ALSA), Jonathan Woithe (FFADO) and me
(PulseAudio). This year, we'll hopefully have YOU as well!
To get an idea of the conference, here's a writeup of last year's
track available from LWN:
http://lwn.net/Articles/299211/
More details about the conference you can find here:
http://linuxplumbersconf.org/
The full CFP is available here:

Spread the word,
Lennart

Hi,
Just a post to say I got the LADSPA working with SDL for my game. I've
scrapped the synthesis idea at the moment, but might go back to it.
The 1st stage can be downloaded from:
http://www.jwm-art.net/XorGramana/XorGramana-0.0.9_19-04-2009.tar.bz2
If you have spare time on your hands, could you give the code the
once-over and offer any suggestions/criticism/advice?
Cheers,
James.
relevant files:
smixer*
audio*
sfx*
ladspa*
further info:
The mixer code started off based upon the mixer from David Olofson's
DT-42 but has been converted to mix floating point data instead. It uses
libsndfile to load audio (flac) and libsamplerate for converting audio
during playback for different speed/pitch (but this has not been
incorporated into the api, the ratio is set randomly).
LADSPA plugins used are from SWH and C* (CAPS) sets. The ladspa_loader
code is based upon that used in my Wav Composer Not Toilet.
Still a lot more to do yet. Migrate effects processing from audio_gen.c
to smixer.c next job. The 1bar sequence/loop is hard-coded. Needs a
sequencer, probably will base it loosely upon DT-42 to begin with. Plan
is to have player position and immediate surroundings influence the
effects settings and mute voices/add extra hits/switch loops etc.
Free-up some allocations upon exit etc.

Hi all,
I am using mplayer, sox and tee to capture streaming internet radio
and send it both to an audio recognition program and to a file
(recording).
This is how I do it:
mplayer -playlist {url} -nocache -af volnorm -msglevel all=1 -nolirc
-vc dummy -vo null -ao pcm:file={$fifo1} &
sox -S {$fifo1} -c 1 -r 8000 -t wav - resample | tee {$recording} |
tee {$fifo2} & ......
$fifo1 and $fifo2 are named pipes, $fifo2 is processed by an audio
recognition program. The idea is that the audio is converted to low
quality wav (8000Hz mono) after which it is fed to the program and
simultaneously recorded.
This works great most of the time but sometimes the recording is too
long/slow or too short/fast. Sometimes the speed is slighly wrong and
sometimes it is terribly wrong. When the speed is too slow, I notice
that the file is also much larger and if I open the file in Audacity,
the program tells me that the duration of the recording is for example
two hours in stead of 1 hour (when the speed is twice as slow as it
should be). Below is a list of three recordings that are the product
of this setup. The middle one is larger and when I play it back it is
three times too slow.

152M 2009-04-09 06:00 /data/station_recordings/48_20090409-0500.wav
55M 2009-04-09 05:00 /data/station_recordings/48_20090409-0400.wav
My guess is that it has something to do with the sample rate. If
anyone has any idea where this goes wrong or what I could do to try to
fix it, please let me know.
Arnold.
Greetings;
I'm building a rhumba box not exactly like anything I've been able to google
up on the net. But I saw one a week ago that I thought worked very well as an
acoustic standup bass substitute when it was close miked.
My boxes panels are 5.2mm birch plywood, with double rabbeted cherry glue
strips, and except for the sound port holes in the front panel, will be air
sealed for best resonance. Total capacity then is 3.535 cu feet.
My question is, given that the port holes will be a larger one in the dead
center of the front panel, and two smaller ones flanking it, splitting the
space so the smaller ones will be centered on 1/2 the distance from the center
point of the center hole, sort of a | o 0 o | where the vertical lines are the
ends of the box by its longest measure.
Is there a formula for lowest frequency vs cubic feet that is commonly used to
determine the sizes of these 'sound' portholes?
Thanks all.

Yes, but every time I try to see things your way, I get a headache.
Hi all,
I'm facing the need of converting SMPTE LTC time-code* (encoded in an
audio stream) into MTC timecode, to then route to other applications.
Does anybody know a Linux application for that, or a library to decode
that audio? Any advice will be appreciated.
Thanks,

Hello all,
*** Latest news from Parma ***
Joern N. has been here the past few days to get
the streaming running and things look really good.
We should have high-resolution and stable streaming,
better than ever before.
The streaming server homepage is at
http://lac.stackingdwarves.net
(IP 78.47.233.27, both on port 80 an 8000/tcp)
There are two LAC chatrooms at irc.freenode.net:
#lac2009 for discussions about the current paper/concert
#lac2009-piazza for off-topic discussions and socializing.
Remote participants are advised to join the first. They will
then be able to take part in the Q&A session at the end of
each presentation.
See you soon in Parma !

Hi all,
I seem to have put myself in a brilliant position... My flight lands at
22:30 in Milan Malpensa airport, meaning that I can't make the last
train from Milan to Parma.
I have two possibilities: either stay a night in Milan and take the
morning train, or rent a car in Malpensa, drive it to Parma and drop of
it there the next morning. I've done the accounting for both scenario's,
and the first one would come down to 100eur, while the car rental would
set me back about 120 eur. Therefore I'm probably going to rent the car
as it saves me a lot of hassle.
But before booking it, I'm wondering if there are other people that
might have the same issue. If so, a split fee would make things even
more interesting (at least for me ;).
Greets,
Pieter
Hi All,
Sort of off topic but I was having a hard time figuring this out: will
electrical plugs that work other parts of Europe work in Italy as
well? I am thinking the two circular prongs adapter. I have some
adapters for when I was in Poland and Germany, but looking online it
seemed like the adapter is slightly different in Italy but wasn't
quite sure if the adapter I have will fit.
Thanks!
