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?

Removed the :logarithmic hint, I agree with Paul, its not
fit-for-purpose as specified.
I'm now using the DOAP schema (http://usefulinc.com/doap) instead of Dublin
Core for software information, much more appropriate.
Fixed a load of typos in the schema and examples.
Dave R. doxygen-ised the .h and added some text about choosing URIs.
I removed the references to run_adding() (I think I got them all).

To close this thread for now.
Thank you all for your kind and useful responces.
However, it turned out that the main showstopper is visa.
We can't get it for such a long time (a month), as it would be our first one.
Things get even more complicated, since my girlfriend right now is not
a student and does not have a job. They say we should build our
"Shengen history" and after one-two (more - better) short and regular
tours we can hope to get month-long visa anywhere we want.
Taking this into account, we have to postpone our Trip to the next
year and try to make two tours to shengen this year.
It's a pity, since tours via travel agencies are about twice as
expensive, but they are our only legal gates to europe.
Moveover, the choice of the first place to visit is also restricted.
We wanted to make London-Paris tour, but GB has very strict rules and
rules us out. Possibly, it will be France and/or Italy as the most
permissive ones.
Will try to match our DreamTrip with the next LAC.
Kind regards,
Dmitry.

How about both recursive and a girlie name?

Richard's preferred name of "PEA" (AKA anything that's not LADSPA2) got me
to thinking. What about abstracting it up one level and calling the
directory + .so files + manifest thing a POD (Plugin Object and
Description). Theres nothing particularly audio specific about the high
level construct, its "just" that we don't have a concrete ABI for dealing
with sills, video etc.
This means that what we think of as a "LADSPA2" plugin would be a
"LADSPA POD". The directory would have a .pod extension.
POD seems like a nice word to me, plenty of scope for puns, short and "pod
plugin" on google doesn't come up with anything much. The only audio
related things for "pod" I could see are: a guitar effects processor called
a PODxt (there was a POD historically), an audio I/O device called a
Firepod, and the documentation for the LADSPA Perl module. Perl docs
are the only non-coincidental hits for "LADSPA POD".
I could juggle the description stuff around the seperate pod-ness from
ladspa-ness, it's not hard, but also not neccesary.
There is a small name clash with Perl, which uses .pod for it's
documentation format, but I dont think that's really an issue, our .pods
will be found in POD_PATH (eg. /usr/lib/pod/, ~/.pod/) and be will be
directories.
Thoughts?

Not much honestly. Digi was demo'ing the new version of PT but they are just
playing catchup with the innovative companies at this point. The coolest
thing at the show was definitely Ardour, which we were using as a playback
and recording machine for our mixing consoles.

There are infinite ways to do this and none of them make the music sound
better than stereo. OK I guess "better" is subjective but there's certainly
no "correct" way to do it. You can easily derive a center/sub channel but
most systems do something hideous when it comes to the rear channels.

CLAM Music Annotator 0.3.1 released
What is the CLAM Music Annotator?
---------------------------------
Is an application of the CLAM framework [1] that can be
used to visualise, check and modify music information
extracted from audio: low level features, note segmentation,
chords, structure... The tool is intended to be useful for
(though not limited to) the music information retrieval
research whenever you need to:
- Supervise and correct the results of automated audio
feature extraction algorithms
- Generate manually edited annotations of audio as training
examples or ground truth for those algorithms.
You can learn more about Music Annotator in its wiki page,
which includes screenshots and videos galleries:
http://iua-share.upf.es/wikis/clam/index.php/Music_Annotator
The application comes with two example extractors. One that
computes low level descriptors and another that performs
chord detection.
It also features useful views such as the "tonnetz" and
"key space" to visualise the tonal features (chords,
notes...)
CLAM Music Annotator is GPL.
What's new from last (0.2) version ?
------------------------------------
This is a major release which have at least duplicated the
number of important features.
- Ported to Qt4
- New chord extractor
- Colourful animated visualisations
- Improved application work-flow (project building, etc.)
- It also works as a collaborative annotation tool (BOCA
client)
See the changelog [2] for a complete list of changes.
or the wiki [3] for general information.
How to install it?
------------------
In Windows we provide a binary installer which includes
all the needed libraries (including Qt4) and ready-to-use
sample data.
For Linux and Mac OSX we don't provide binaries at this
moment (though we plan to do in short).
Source tarballs can be downloaded from the web and complete
build instructions can be found in the INSTALL file.

The chord extractor extracts segments labeled with chords.
It uses Christopher Harte algorithm with some minor
variations. It has been developed as a collaboration between
the Queen Mary University of London and the Universitat
Pompeu Fabra (UPF) of Barcelona.
The "keyspace" view is a great contribution of Jordi Bonada
and Emilia Gomez, at UPF.

After some discussions at LAC I think a user friendly latency tester is
needed so users have an easy way to test a setup, something better than
than just installing apps and being mystified when they get tons of
xruns.
The backend is trivial (there are a bunch of similar little tools out
there), but I'm not a GUI person. Would anyone like to help design and
implement this? Since time is money ;-) a simple Gnome and/or KDE front
end would be the easiest way to start, and of course there should be a
separation between the GUI and the back end so anyone can implement a
leaner version if they want to. Anyone want to help with the GUI side?

Hi all,
I just uploaded some Photos taken during LAC 2006. It one huge tgz
archive, no web gallery available. It will be up in 15 minutes:
http://christeck.de/stuff/LAC2006.tar.gz
To save bandwidth, I scaled them down a bit. If anyone is interested in
a particular high resolution image, don't hesitate to send me an
e-mail.
Any further resources?
Best regards
