[Announce] Denemo 0.7.9 Release and Looking for Help with ALSA/MIDI/JACK

by Nils Gey

Dear Linux-Audio-Users Denemo is a music notation program for Linux and Windows that lets you rapidly enter notation for typesetting and lets you produce beautiful output via the LilyPond music engraver. Now version 0.7.9 is released. Is has many great features and improvements which make Denemo unique as a notationeditor in Linux/Win/Mac. It can be downloaded as source, Debian-package, Fedora-Package or Windows-installer on http://www.denemo.org or on our Savannah page: https://savannah.gnu.org/projects/denemo/ Please feel free to tell us your opionion, comments, bugs or feature-wishes in a way you like it: http://www.denemo.org/?q=node/1 . We also need help! While Denemo itself is developing very fast and well there is still no JACK- and/or ALSA- midi support. This is needed that you can use Denemo as a Sequencer on Notation-base. Currently Denemo uses CSound for direct play or exports a Midi first and plays it afterwards. If you are willing to help us in this point (or in any other!) please contact our mailinglist or, if you like because its shorter, in this list or directly to my adress. This release includes: Allow LilyPond editing within Denemo. Gallery of examples - Ossia, Multi-measure rests, cues, cautionary accidentals, reminder accidentals. Rehearsal Marks ... Printing of excerpts as images (e.g. for inclusion in texts). LilyPond import improved Midi import improved. Better handling of keyboard shortcuts. Contexts (Piano context, choir context etc) http://www.denemo.org Community Links: http://www.denemo.org/?q=node/1

Re: [LAD] OT: alternative fuel for cars

Petrol is considered a fuel because you can burn it, and then it delivers thermal energy. In the same way you can burn hydrogen, so it's a fuel. What remains in that case is water. That doesn't make water any more a fuel than the waste products of burning petrol. > Also it is way more catchy... Being catchy is no virtue. On the contrary, the 'catchy' way science is presented in the popular media is doing more harm than anything else. It creates the false illusion that the current state of science can be understood in intuitive ways, which is simply not the case. That goes not only for e.g. physics which we are discussing in this thread, but also for 'human' sciences such as psychology. Just ask around: most people are convinced they has some insight in the psychology of e.g. persons of some public interest, e.g. noted criminals, by using terms as 'the human mind', 'passions', 'the unconscious', etc. etc. while scientific psychology has discredited and dropped these useless inexact terms for at leas the last forty years.

But a fuel? No, water is not a fuel. Hydrogen, now there's a fuel. This technology is very interesting and has potentially huge uses as a no-loss battery making solar power very usable for homes. But this website uses "water as a fuel" to do what looks like nothing but childish experiments. Sampo

embedded high end audio

by porl sheean

hi there everyone. i hope this is the right list for this, but i just had a question about embedded hardware. if i was wanting to develop a small (up to around 20cm square) device using an embedded linux setup, is there any high end (pro quality jack compatible) audio devices that are easily attainable? basically something like a high end adc/dac for minipci or something similar i suppose. anyone on here know? thanks porl ps. should this be posted to the users list instead, since i suppose it doesn't have a direct connection to linux development?

Re: [LAD] [LAU] First release of jkmeter

by porl sheean

it would be nice to see something like this integrated into ardour, at least in the output channels as an option. i'd like the ability to get a standard reference level to compare against apart from the 'ok, it has clipped now, turn it down a tad' level it currently shows :) porl 2008/8/4 Raphaël Doursenaud <rdoursenaud(a)free.fr>: > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > Hash: SHA1 > > Fons Adriaensen a écrit : >> Hello all, >> >> The first release of jkmeter is now available in the >> usual place: >> >> <www.kokkizinita.net/linuxaudio/downloads> >> >> Also updates of japa and jnoise (mostly maintenance, >> but see also below). >> >> >> From the README: >> >> >> jkmeter-0.1.0 (03/08/2008) >> -------------------------- >> >> Jkmeter is a horizontal or vertical bargraph level >> meter based on the ideas of mastering guru Bob Katz. >> See <http://www.digido.com/bob-katz/index.php> and >> follow the links on 'level practices'. >> >> This is the type of meter you want for live recording, >> mixing and mastering.

[ANN] a2jmidid version 4 "Devsirme" released

by Nedko Arnaudov

a2jmidid is a project that aims to ease usage of legacy ALSA sequencer applications, in a JACK MIDI enabled system. a2jmidid implementation is based on jack-alsamidi-0.5 that is [almost] same as jackd ALSA "seq" MIDI backend, both created by Dmitry Baikov. Static bridges are based on code by Sean Bolton and Lars Luthman. Homepage with screenshots: http://home.gna.org/a2jmidid/ Tarball download: http://download.gna.org/a2jmidid/ Changes since version 3: * Fix typos in docs * Disable use of C++ demangling in sigsegv. Fix for sr #2074 * Fix a2j_control help text (thanks kfoltman!) * Request fixed JACK client name. Fix for bug #12139 * Handle missing svnversion executable nicely. Fixes bug #12138 Changes since version 2: * Improved port naming, support for bidirectional ports * Allow exporting of hardware ports (disabled by default) * Switch from autotools to waf * Remove support for old JACK MIDI API variants * Remove usage of posix semaphores that could cause sleep in realtime context, in rare circumstances * D-Bus background service mode. The old manual mode is still working. * Log file when running in background service mode. * Improved documentation * Import, with slight modifications, static bridges created by Sean Bolton and Lars Luthman. -- Nedko Arnaudov <GnuPG KeyID: DE1716B0>

First release of jkmeter

by Fons Adriaensen

Hello all, The first release of jkmeter is now available in the usual place: <www.kokkizinita.net/linuxaudio/downloads> Also updates of japa and jnoise (mostly maintenance, but see also below). >From the README: jkmeter-0.1.0 (03/08/2008) -------------------------- Jkmeter is a horizontal or vertical bargraph level meter based on the ideas of mastering guru Bob Katz. See <http://www.digido.com/bob-katz/index.php> and follow the links on 'level practices'. This is the type of meter you want for live recording, mixing and mastering. It probably makes no sense to use it on all tracks of a DAW, where keeping digital level within limits is the main purpose of metering. This release implements the K-20 meter. Future releases will include the K-14 meter as well. A K-meter displays both the true RMS level and the digital peak level. The ballistics as defined by Bob Katz are somewhat ambiguous. In this implementation the RMS meter is about 15% faster than an VU, but without the overshoot. This provides a good indication of subjective loudness. Instead of providing extra gain for the RMS level, the K-meter displays it on the same scale as the digital peak level, but puts the '0dB' mark and the color change well below the OdB full scale level. For the K-20 meter it is 20dB down, for the K-14 this is (surprise !) 14 dB. To use the meter as envisaged by Bob Katz, you should have a fixed monitoring level, adjusted so that pink noise indicating 0dB on the meter corresponds to 83 dB(C) (from each speaker) as indicated by an sound level meter. Note the (C) - not (A) - weighting. As of release 0.4.0, both japa and jnoise provide a pink noise source at exactly this level. The current release does not include the 22kHz lowpass filter required for frequencies such as 96kHz and higher. Enjoy ! -- FA Laboratorio di Acustica ed Elettroacustica Parma, Italia O tu, che porte, correndo si ? E guerra e morte !
