[linux-audio-dev] ANNOUNCE JACK-0.98.1 release

by Taybin Rutkin

These are just minor bug fixes to the configure script and header files. ***CHANGES*** Properly detect libreadline. Fatal error messages for missing get_opt_long(), dl_open(), and pthread_create(). No longer try to optimize for sse/mmx/altivec. Removed stale header from jack.h (jack_port_connect) JACK is available at http://jackit.sf.net Taybin

[linux-audio-dev] [Fwd: Re: [linux-audio-user] DSP2000 C-PORT and MIDI input]

by Lukas Degener

Hi everybody and sorry for posting this to both, lad and alsa-dev, i was not sure which one fits better. Concerning the issue with non-functional midi in on the DSP2000 c-port: Someone on lau(Clemens?) said the problem is a lack of information an how to enable some interrupts. Matthew Skinner contacted me a couple of days ago (actualy replying to a thread on lau, i think), offereing to provide the missing info + additional help. Anyone interested and able to do the required changes should contact him: matt(a)sound-music.com the original "dialog" is attached below. I'm sorry, it is a little cluttered by my mail client :-) hope you can read it anyway.

I can provide the missing information and some more help. If you want to find someone with the time, knowledge and passion to write the extra code for linux then get them to contact myself.

[linux-audio-dev] Latest release of FreqTweak

by Jesse Chappell

Anouncing version 0.6.0 of FreqTweak. http://freqtweak.sourceforge.net New in this release are spectral filter Modulators, which can animate and modulate any of the filters automatically in several ways. If you thought FreqTweak was fun before, be prepared for hours of audio mayhem. See the webpage (and the software) for details. Just in time for the ZKM/LAD conference in Karlsruhe :) Please report any problems compiling this release on your various platforms to me, and as always report any bugs or feature requests to freqtweak-user(a)lists.sourceforge.net (you must subscribe first). Enjoy, Jesse Chappell ------ FreqTweak is a JACK-based application for FFT-based realtime audio spectral manipulation and display. It provides several algorithms forprocessing audio data in the frequency domain and a highly interactive GUI to manipulate the associated filters for each. It also provides high-resolution spectral displays in the form of scrolling-raster spectrograms and energy vs frequency plots displaying both pre- and post-processed spectra. -------

[linux-audio-dev] [ANN] realtime-lsm-0.1.0 available via SourceForge

by Jack O'Quin

The first SourceForge release of realtime-lsm (0.1.0) now available. http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/realtime-lsm/realtime-lsm-0.1.0.tar.gz?d… The Realtime Linux Security Module (LSM) is a loadable extension for Linux 2.6 kernels. It selectively grants realtime permissions to specific user groups or applications. There are only a few small differences between this release and the realtime-0.0.4 version released back in March. If that was working satisfactorily, there is no need to upgrade. The main purpose of this release is to take advantage of the services provided by SourceForge. (*) The module now declares the appropriate kernel vermagic string, thanks to a patch provided by Guenter Geiger. (*) Although the SourceForge project name is `realtime-lsm', the module it builds and installs is still called `realtime' and supports the same user interface. This LSM was written by Torben Hohn and Jack O'Quin, who make no warranty concerning the safety, security or even stability of your system when using it. But, if you do have problems, we would like to know about them via the SourceForge bug tracking system. -- joq

[linux-audio-dev] Anyone planned a GTK2-based Multitracker?

by Samuel Abels

Hello, I was planning on starting a C++/GTKmm2-based multitracker project using LADSPA and Jackit. Before rolling on I would like to ask if there is already a project planning on something similar. Some existing C++ classes or gtkmm2 widgets could also be helpful. Comments appreciated. -Samuel -- ------------------------------------------------------ | Samuel Abels | http://www.debain.org | | spam ad debain dod org | knipknap ad jabber dod org | ------------------------------------------------------

Yep, it is very hard to keep the list up-to-date if developers theirself don't write the entries and update them. Most software I have downloaded won't even compile and documentation is not always adequate. That is why I selected for my list a format which encourages users to find out what software among several candidates fits for them. The list is attached below. I also have a similar list for graphics software. I have not checked Dave's list at all in making my list. I actually have downloaded all the software. And I still have 15 Gbytes of downloaded stuff unchecked and 300+ urls to go through. I have included a list of unsorted items at the very end. I'm also downloading material for making similar lists for commercial software and hardware. Manuals, screenshots, SDKs -- whatever could be useful for us.

[linux-audio-dev] FreeVSTi Compatibility List / VSTserver & FST

by Christian Frisson

Hi all, Paul Davis wrote: > >This is the version I'm using with the vstserver now as well.

I'm far from being a developper (a kind of LAU member lost over there...) therefore I've tried several attempts to contribute in my way. The last in date is managing to test all the FreeVSTi plugins listed on the K-v-R database, reaching approx. 200, with VSTserver / vsti. As there's some work left, after two or three fulltime days of labour, I was waiting to put the whole on a thread on the K-v-R Forum, what I'll do as soon as possible (all plugins are waiting, sorted on my VST_PATH), but the last messages here force me to reveal some personal conclusions. First of all, some relevant testing data: - System-wide: "2.4.24-1.ll.rhfc1.ccrma kernel" on a 2.4 GHz PIV, ALSA 1.0.1-1.cvs on an "ice1712" card, - Sound-wise: jack-audio-connection-kit-0.94.0-1, wine-vstserver-0.3.0, vstserver-0.3.1, vsti-0.0.3 The plugins integration seems to be convenient to categorization tags, sorted as follows: - Fully-working, - Removable stuck notes (i.e. stuck notes able to be removed when re-triggered: bound to monophonic synth use), - Jack zombifier (sometimes needing a jack-restart, else a reboot, as I can't kill Jack properly), - Invisible (no errors emitted, connections existing under Jack, but the GUI doesn't appear), - "10s'" (Plugin "*.dll" used more than 10 seconds in the process-thread. Killed it.), - Non-working, - System-freezing, (I won't paste here the respective error logs.) Most fall into the first two categories, hopefully, even though reverse-ordered in quantity. My first comments upon some weaknesses (bearing in mind it's a bit easy-speaking - not intending to flame): - Multiple instances can't be launched, as opposed to the library state of FST, - FST's lack of server separately launched seems more ergonomic to users like me. Should the server natively built in Jack? Or should we be able to use a graphical app like Steinberg Cubase's "VST Instruments"? - VSTserver can't launch plugins from separate folders, can it? Or could this be achieved by putting another set of "vstserver" & "servant" in each of them then? All of the above are mainly due to the beta state of the collection of apps, what I'm aware of. - I'm used to changing directory to $VST_PATH in order to benefit from the tab completion when launching plugins with "vsti". Why not having called it "VST"? Shorter to type... - When it comes to preventing from crashes due to user-failure, VSTserver then Jack do not appreciate partial filename launched with "vsti", like *.d (the closest tab completion before *.dll & *.dat files, for SynthEdit plugins). Dots aren't either appreciated. A need of implementing extension check after the last dot? The aforementionned Graphic VSTi launcher would enable avoiding such wrong filenames entered by the user. What about the coexistence of VSTserver and FST on a same machine? Hard times for the moment, as long as VSTserver uses a custom-tuned version of Wine and FST the newest possible... No free-babbling here, all of this just leads me to end up with a good question: as many libre-projects are often started with the same objectives, will we benefit from a collaboration between VSTserver and FST? Cheers, Christian Frisson
