[linux-audio-dev] Re: RFC: Disposable Soft Synth Interface

by Jens M Andreasen

Hi! Apparently our mailsever has been blacklisted by all-day-breakfast ... Damned script-kiddies :( So, since this discussion is kind of relevant here, I try get the message thru anyway. Sorry Chris!

Mmm .. This would replace, I think, all of your considerations on how to extend LADSPA. It is (probably?) the only extension really needed. MIDI is a very powerful protocol, and the beuty is that the client needs only to implement those parts it needs to get going. For a synthesizer one can ignore start, stop and pause as well as SMPTE, but for a sequencer or arpeggiator timing would be the name of the game. As a synthesizer developer I *could*, if I wished so, implement running-status and thus discover that I have been disconnected, but it is not required ... mvh // Jens M andreasen > Chris >

[linux-audio-dev] ANN: sauditor 0.3 - return of the spectrum analyser thingy

by james＠dis-dot-dat.net

Hi, Have a play. Please. I know it might not be the most exciting app in the world, but feedback would be good. This is the first time I've written anything non-trivial in Linux. The spectrum analyser is back, now as a toggleable X window. Resizing to follow. One annoying bug - when the SA window pops up, it steals focus. If anyone knows how to create an unfocused window, preferably using only xlib, or something else ubiquitous, please please tell me. http://dis-dot-dat.net/code/sauditor/ James

[linux-audio-dev] [ANN] tap-plugins 0.5.0

by Tom Szilagyi

Hi, TAP-plugins 0.5.0 released today, featuring: * New plugin: TAP Dynamics, a versatile tool for changing the dynamic content of your tracks. Currently supports 15 dynamics transfer functions, among which there are compressors, limiters, expanders and noise gates. * Ardour (the recommended host for these plugins) now supports drop-down lists in plugin GUIs, so there are no more long port labels. * Minor fixes, improvements, new screenshots ;-) Homepage: http://tap-plugins.sf.net Enjoy, Tom

[linux-audio-dev] ANNOUNCE: sauditor 0.2 released

by james＠dis-dot-dat.net

sauditor is a simple, fast, sample auditor that outputs through jack and has a curses interface. http://dis-dot-dat.net/code/sauditor/ Changes: It doesn't (or shouldn't) break anymore. The spectrum analyser has been removed for now, until I get around to writing a new one. Doesn't show files/dirs starting with "." by default anymore - use the -a option to turn them back on. The brain-damaged directory traversal is fixed. Plenty of tidying up done. James

[linux-audio-dev] audio application design problem

by Christian Henz

Hi, as you may know I'm the author of simsam (http://simsam.sf.net) and I'm a little stuck with some typical audio application design problems. So far I've been using an Observer pattern to have the GUI updated as soon as a parameter changes. Thus any operation setting a parameter can trigger one or several Widgets to be redrawn. Since so far I only set parameters from the GUI thread, the resulting GUI updates also run in the GUI thread, so no problem there. One problem however is that access to the parameters isn't synchronized and therefore concurrency problems exist. The same problem exists between MIDI and audio thread, as MIDI events are currently handled entirely in the MIDI thread. The obvious answer is to use mutexes to synchronize the parameters, but then of course they aren't rt-safe. The next obvious answer would be to use a lock free FIFO. I've seen some code passing MIDI events to an audio thread that way. Thus the state is only maintained in the audio thread. But what about GUI events? And GUI callbacks? Surely one doesn't want the audio thread to execute widget redraws. So one has to de-couple these mechanisms, for example by defining event and update messages and passing those around by FIFOs instead of direct parameter manipulation / direct GUI callbacks. Now this would totally break my app and I would therefore like to hear some thoughts on the whole issue before I start messing things up (even worse ;-P). Thanks Christian Henz
