[linux-audio-dev] Announcing the ultra-mega-alpha release of Specimen

by Peter Bessman

Specimen is a midi controlled sampler, and it's very first public release is available from http://www.gazuga.net/specimen.tar.gz In all honesty, I advise against downloading this in it's current state unless you intend to hack on it or play with it for sheer amusement value only. There are a few TODO items that must be taken care of before this can be considered usable software (as the next release will be). The main reason for this release is because I said I was going to make a release in a couple of weeks 15 days ago. It's very nascent stuff. You have been warned. [pb]

[linux-audio-dev] Linux Audio article in DATOR MAGAZIN 2003-12 (swedish)!

by Roger Larsson

7 pages with written by Albert Veli Take a look at the front page :-) http://www.datormagazin.se/ssjs/aktuellt_nr.html It mentions, with varying levels of detail: * Alsa (three pages) * GNOME ALSA Mixer (with screen dump? - it look old and boring compared to KMix in KDE 3.2 IMHO) * Jack * Qjackctl (with screen capture?) * Fluidsynt * Timidity++ * LADSPA * Jack-rack * Ecamegapedal (with screen capture) * Rosegarden-4 (with screen capture) * ReZound (with screen capture) * Muse * Audacity * Ardour ["problematic to compile, steep learning curve" the article suggests looking at www.djcj.org/LAU/quicktoots * Ecasound * AlsaModularSynth * Legasynth * SpiralSynth * Pd * Soundtracker, cheesetracker * Alsaplayer * xmms /RogerL -- Roger Larsson Skellefteå Sweden

Re: [linux-audio-dev] plugin GUIs .. Mediastation, LADSPA ?

>From: Benno Senoner <sbenno(a)gardena.net> > >the method I use to communicate between the GUIs is SYSV message queues >because they can be multiclient but the API is abstracted so the >underlying transport model can be chosen arbitrarily. I have written and I'm writing a message system where client sends, e.g., the following msg to the server: read <file id> <loc> <len> <addr> <return value> which reads a block of audio from a file to a (shared) memory location. I did not see the return value in your system (and don't figure out how one goes without it). The server sends both the result and the given return value back to the client. The return value could be something which only the client knows, e.g., array index, memory address, text. Something which associates the result with the request. The implementation is too complex to my taste as the messages are combination of raw byte data and string data. Each message starts with <int> which tells the length of the message. I have written a set of routines to assemble and disassemble these messages. I send these messages via pipes/sockets, via shared memory, and whatever. In any case, such message system should be general enough, and the return value brings it to that direction. Hmm... what do you mean by multiclient? Is the writing to the message queue an "atomic" operation for long messages? I use one pipe/socket per client to one server because I suspect only the server can make the long messages "atomic" by interleaving them correctly. Likewise, I use one lock-free shared-memory FIFO per client to one server. Regards, Juhana

[linux-audio-dev] Retro speech synthesis

by David Olofson

Inspired by the Vocaloid thread, an old idea sprung back to mind; retro "chip style" speech synthesis. Is there a simple, minimalistic, Free/Open Source phoneme-to-audio synthesiser out there? I'm not terribly interested in the text-to-phonemes part and other higher level stuff, as I intend to use this for sound effects in games and (other) toys. Doesn't hurt if CPU and memory requirements are very low, but I'm probably going to render words and phrases off-line anyway (at install or load time), for later processing as normal sound effects. //David Olofson - Programmer, Composer, Open Source Advocate .- Audiality -----------------------------------------------. | Free/Open Source audio engine for games and multimedia. | | MIDI, modular synthesis, real time effects, scripting,... | `-----------------------------------> http://audiality.org -' --- http://olofson.net --- http://www.reologica.se ---

Re: [linux-audio-dev] virtual vocalist - I think we could have something similar without much work...

It could probably not be very hard to write a similar GUI where you edit a pianoroll to make festival sing. Seems like a very nice small project, anyone willing to take it? Juan Linietsky
