Baudline (http://www.baudline.com) is a fantastic viewer that does fft
cascade. I've used it for a couple of years, and it is great for figuring out
how different sounds "work", and it has an oscilloscope-type display as well.

Hello.
I finally started making my pet music project and realized I need a
drum synth to make some cool sounds. psindustrializer is good but also
need some tr-909-style sounds. I remeber from my old windoze days I
used a nice piece of software called Stomper. Does anybody know any
software for linux with comparable capabilities? Or we need to write
one?
Stomper does not work under wine :(
Thanks.
Hello.
I had a couple of articles on drum synths. Check
ftp://ftp.funet.fi/pub/sci/audio/devel/lad/drumsynth/
I built the circuit in a00*.jpg at the time when this article
was fresh. The article b00*jpg mentions an earlier article.
I will check that out at library.
Hmm.. I coded a drum synth for Commodore VIC-20 at the time.
VIC provided an audio chip with three oscillators, noise,
and a common volume if I remember correctly. What I did was to
modulate osc pitch and volume parameters with a fast and accurate
(compared to Basic) assembly code. The drum sounds were assigned to
the keys. This was about 1984, inspired by Yamaha's digital RX drum
synths, not by analog drums.

Hello all,
The long announced new release of Aeolus is finally available.
Version 0.6.6 is almost a complete rewrite of the previous
official release, 0.3.1 (a lot happened in bewteen).
This should still be considered a beta release - no doubt
some nasty bugs will be uncovered when this version is used
more widely.
This release has been reported to build and work 'out of the box'
on a 64-bit system, but 64-bit support is still experimental.
At the same time, jaaa, japa, jace and jdelay have been
updated to use the new shared libraries. So support for
the older libs and everything using them will stop.
There's also one small new thing, jnoise. This is a
simple command line JACK app producing accurate white
and pink noise.
As always, everyhting is to be found at
http://users.skynet.be/solaris/linuxaudio
There are also some new Aeolus demo files by Bert Visser,
as heard at the LAC2006 demo.
Enjoy !

Dear Linux Audio Developers,
Bernard Bel and I are very happy to announce to you that a powerful tool for
computer-aided composition using Csound or Midi -- the Bol Processor -- is
being reborn as open source software! While the software only runs on
Macintosh computers at this time, we are hoping that some savvy Linux
developers with porting experience will be interested in joining the
project.
Thanks! (And please email me directly if you want to see the source code in
a more Linux-friendly format :)
Details are below ...

Subject: [bp2] Bol Processor going Open Source!
[Please circulate]
Bol Processor is a program for music composition and improvisation with
real-time MIDI, MIDI file, and Csound output. It produces music from a set
of rules (a compositional grammar) or from text scores typed or captured
from a MIDI instrument. Bol Processor 2 was a shareware application
developed by Bernard Bel with the help of Jim Kippen and Srikumar Karaikudi
Subramanian. BP2 won the Bourges 1997 international award (ex aequo with
Cecilia) in the category of computer-aided composition and realization
software. More information about the capabilities of BP2 is available at
<http://www.lpl.univ-aix.fr/~belbernard/music/>.
Bol Processor is now being released as free software (open source) under a
BSD-style license. BP development is hosted by Sourceforge at
<http://bolprocessor.sourceforge.net/>. We are looking for several
developers to join the project to help with porting and to decide the future
directions that the software will take. If you are interested in helping,
please email Anthony Kozar for more information.
BP2 currently runs on the Classic MacOS. (However, its OMS MIDI driver,
including QuickTime music, only runs on machines booting MacOS 9.) One of
the goals of the open-source project will be to port it to other platforms.
We are hoping that Bol Processor 3 will at least run on MacOS X, and ports
to Windows and Linux are also possible depending on the desires and
expertise of the group of developers that can be assembled.
Two files are now available in the release section of the Bol Processor
Sourceforge site. There is a MacOS disk image with the BP 2.9.5 beta
application and another disk image with copies of all of the source files to
build it. The source code has also been added to the BP CVS repository.
This release is a snapshot of the current state of the project and
interested developers are encouraged to download the files and start looking
them over. Users will probably want to stick with version 2.9.3 for now but
are welcome to try out 2.9.5 beta as well. Note that we have not yet
removed the shareware registration notices, so please disregard them.
There is a mailing list for discussion of BP2 at <bp2-list(a)yahoogroups.com>
and there should soon be a developer mailing list hosted by the Sourceforge
project. Please join and help us determine the future of Bol Processor !!

Hi!
Requirements in order of importance, highest first:
- not likely to get us into legal trouble
- no too obvious negative interpretations/associations
("too obvious" because it's too hard, internationaly, otherwise)
- no conflict with established open source projects
- easy to search for
Pretty much every 3 letter combo is in use by some company or
institute. Few are pronounceable. It's similar with 4 letters.
Suggestions with few (and not relevant looking) or no Google hits:
splugs - stream processing plugins
sppib - stream processing plugins in bundles
laspib - linux audio ...
buspp - bundled stream processing plugins
streamins - streaming/stream-processing plugins
sprocins - stream processing plugins
[Streaming because there are continuous i/o streams of data
as far as I understand, while there's no limitation to
audio/float anymore. Corect me if I'm wrong.]

Changed name of the port shortname property to "symbol", which hopefully
implies more the right thing.
Added Rate before Control and Audio port names to hopefully make thier
menaing clearer for people who may not come from a LADSPA background.
This is just fiddling really, so I think it's starting to settle down.

I've had this request on a non-Linux list:
Can you provide more feedback (about) ... multimedia players capable of
decoding Dolby AC3, DTS, DVD-Audio, etc. on a Linux machine?
What about software players running on a CAR-PC and surround-capable?
I know very little about the whole field of multimedia players
for proprietary formats on Linux. Can someone fill in the gaps ?
- which apps are available ?
- are they open-source ?
- what interfaces (ALSA, JACK, OSS, ...) do they have ?
- do they require Windoze emulation ?
- what is their maintenance state ?
- etc.
Many thanks,

Hi,
I saw this thread earlier on this list about the Edirol UA-101 external
audio interface: http://lalists.stanford.edu/lad/2005/09/index.html#162
I'm trying to use the same device, but strangeley enough, it doesn't
even get recognized. Looking at both the kernel sources and at the
alsa-driver sources, I see the following comment:
./sound/usb/usbquirks.h: /* TODO: add Edirol UA-101 support */
how did you guys make it work?
