hi guys!
today i felt a little bored and needed to do something to avoid
finishing my lac paper, so i brushed up the documentation about the wave
field synthesis live streaming project that i did for tu berlin last
year. if you need to kill some time and enjoy reading war stories with
linux audio, really loud music and infrared lasers in them, have a go at
http://stackingdwarves.net/public_stuff/event_documentation/wfs_live_transm…
best regards,

Hello all,
Many thanks to all who have responded to yesterday's
message ! There is still room for more, so start
writing the paper you always wanted to write, or
preparing the workshop you always wanted to do...
The paper deadline will be extended to the 29th
of this month.
Some practical info:
There are no formal calls for workshops or for
participating in the Linux Sound Night on the
conference website. For both just drop me line.
Regarding the LSN, I had a meeting with the
management of the Teatro Lenz this afternoon.
Lenz is very much one of the 'alternative'
cultural organisations in Parma, and would
be the natural place for something like the
LSN. Normally they would be organising a
festival in April and May, and the LSN would
fit in very well into it, allowing it to be
organised at minimal cost. But thanks to the
new cultural politics of the government guided
by Il Cavaliere (Berlusconi) Lenz won't have
any funding until September, and has to cancel
the festival. It's probably still possible to
use the location, and anyway we'll do whatever
is needed to get the LSN organised.
We will add some travel and visitor info to
the website early next week.
Earlier some of you expressed the desire for
developer meetings, brainstorms or working
sessions. I'd ask any specific groups who
want to meet in Parma to get organised and
keep me informed.
Finally, it's *freezing* cold here right now,
but I promise more enjoyable meteorological
conditions in April !
Ciao,

This mail is to inform you that the paper submit deadline for the LAC2009
(Linux Audio Conference)(1) has been extended to January 29th, 2009.
So, if you have been shocked by the fact that the initial planned deadline
would be tomorrow, HERE is your chance to get your half-cooked paper/idea
into a good shape and submit(2) it now! :-).
(1) The LAC (Linux Audio Conference) is an annual event where developers,
users and composers from all around the world come together for 4 days
to present current developments, new compositions and other news to the
public, listen to concerts, and generally have a good time together.
The LAC2009 is taking place at the Casa della Musica in Parma, Italy,
from April 16th to 19th, 2009. The conference homepage is at
http://lac.linuxaudio.org/2009/.

Keep 'em coming,

Hi,
As a matter of fact I do. I just forgot to include it in the original
email.
If you use the promo code AUDIO, you'll receive a 50% discount off a
full price pass.
Thanks!

Hello all, yada-yada (*)
The paper submission deadline for LAC2009 is just a little
more than 100 hours away, and the response so far has been
rather disappointing, to the point that there would not be
much of a conference at all.
The deadline could be extended by two weeks (29 Jan, midnight),
but that would make sense only if we know there will be
sufficient submissions.
So if you are planning to submit a paper, or present a
workshop please let me know *ASAP*, and in any case before
the original deadline (15 Jan, midnight).
Ciao,
(*) This means 'best wishes for 2009 !'

Greetings,
I hope this email finds everyone doing well.
The Southern California Linux Expo is fast approaching and we have a few
spots left for free & open source projects. I would like to formerly
invite the Linux Audio consortium to participate at the show and
showcase the various free & open source audio applications that are
currently available. The show will be taking place February 20th -
22nd, 2009 in Los Angeles, CA at the Westin LAX.
SCALE would provide a complimentary booth on our show floor including
all the usual amenities such as a 500W power outlet, ethernet drop, one
6' table and chairs. We will also provide 3-5 complimentary passes to
the show.
Ideally we would like to see as many of the Linux Audio member projects
represented. Any questions please do not hesitate to ask.
Thanks!
Gareth

Hi!
Is anyone planning on a complete DSSI (w/ GUI) version of amSynth or even
better, an LV2 version? I'd also be interested to hear if there is anything
similar already in the LV2-world?

Improvements in this release:
- All of the user interface elements reworked into a new component system
- Full undo/redo support
- Searchable plugin list browser
- Pattern editor zooming
- Improved LADSPA/DSSI support

Is there a way to check from the command line the audio length (not the
size of the file) of an audio file (assume wav, but I also want to do
other types, especially flac). So far I have only found this:
sox myaudiofile.wav -n stat
which gives me more information than I need, but at least I can parse
out the length from that output. Is there a simpler more direct
approach using some other command line utility ?
