Hi all, After migrating to a freshly installed system, it seems jackd has decided not to honor my settings in $HOME/.jackdrc anymore. I have a (minimal, no deskop) install of ubuntu 17.10 and jackd1 when I startt my jack client it prints: creating alsa driver ... hw:MADIFXtest|hw:MADIFXtest|1024|2|48000|0|0|nomon|swmeter|-|32bit but the contents of of ,jackdrc is: /usr/bin/jackd -p512 -dalsa -r48000 -p64 -n2 -D -Chw:MADIFXtest -Phw:MADIFXtest So I’m getting a period size of 1024 rather that 64. copying .jackdrc to /etc/jackdrc also didn’t help. Any idea why jack is refusing my settings? This was working fine on my other system which should be more or less identical, but obviously i'm missing something rather crucial here… thanks! fokke

octofile release

by Fons Adriaensen

Hello all, Source code for octofile version 0.3.0 (linux) is now available at <http://kokkinizita.linuxaudio.org/linuxaudio/downloads/index.html> Octofile is the A to B format converter for Core Sound's Octomic. A-format input can be 1,2,4 or 8 audio file(s) with resp. 8,4,2 or 1 channel(s) each, 44.1, 48 or 96 kHz. Default output is a 2nd order Ambix file (CAF, SN3D, ACN) but the legacy .amb or non-standard formats (e.g. Ambix in a .wav file) are possible as well. You will require a calibration file from Core Sound of course. Ciao, -- FA

USB audio on RPi3B+

by Fons Adriaensen

Hello all, Has anyone tried using multichannel USB audio on a Raspberry 3B+ ? It seems to work perfectly (using zita-alsa-pcmi) with stereo cards. When I try my RME Babyface (12 in, 12 out) in CC mode, the device opens without problems, but then Alsa_pcmi::pcm_wait() times out waiting for the poll fd to become ready. Timeout in pcm_wait() is 1000 milliseconds. The same seems to happen with Jackd, which uses similar code. Is there anything in the Pi's system or configuration that excludes multichannel cards ? Ciao, -- FA

DrumGizmo 0.9.15 Release

by Bent Bisballe Nyeng

DrumGizmo 0.9.15 Released! DrumGizmo is an open source, multichannel, multilayered, cross-platform drum plugin and stand-alone application. It enables you to compose drums in midi and mix them with a multichannel approach. It is comparable to that of mixing a real drumkit that has been recorded with a multimic setup. We didn't quite make the yearly LAC (Linux Audio Conference) schedule. But fret not, now it is here! The new 0.9.15 release is primed and ready for use. Loads of new stuff in this release. Most prominent is the new timing humanizer and the bleed control! The timing humanizer works in addition to the velocity humanizer. Where the velocity humanizer adjusts the velocity of incoming midi hits, the timing humanizer does the same thing but instead moves them back and forth in time. This all helps to achieve a less machine-sounding output. To help with the understanding of the humanizing features, we've also added a “visualizer” which will mirror the settings you choose for a better understanding. This is the first iteration of the visualizer, so feedback is very welcome. So what else? Oh yes, “bleed control”! And yep, it does exactly what you expect. If you want a dry sounding kit, turn that slider aaaall the way down. But if you want all of the ambience in there, turn it aaaall the way up. Bleed is when a hit on any drum is also picked up by mics that aren't the “primary” mic of that specific drum. For some genres bleed is unwanted. For others, not so much. And now YOU are in control. For the full list of changes, check the roadmap for 0.9.15 [2] A note on the bleed control: Currently only the newly updated CrocellKit v1.1 supports this [1]. We still need to update the rest of the kits before it will work for those. So keep an eye out for that. And that is all. Please enjoy this release! Get it here [3] [1]: https://drumgizmo.org/wiki/doku.php?id=kits:crocellkit [2]: https://www.drumgizmo.org/wiki/doku.php?id=roadmap:features_roadmap#version… [3]: http://www.drumgizmo.org/wiki/doku.php?id=getting_drumgizmo

[ANN] Vee One Suite 0.9.2 - A Summer'18 Release

by Rui Nuno Capela

Awe! The 'Vee One Suite' of so called 'old-school' software instruments, synthv1 [1] as a polyphonic subtractive synthesizer, samplv1 [2] a polyphonic sampler synthesizer, drumkv1 [3] as yet another drum-kit sampler and padthv1 [4] as a polyphonic additive synthesizer, are here released for the northern Summer'18. All available in dual standard forms: - a pure stand-alone JACK client with JACK-session [5], NSM (Non Session management [6]) and both JACK MIDI and ALSA MIDI [7] input support; - a LV2 instrument plug-in [8]. The mostly common change-log for the hot-season is as follows: - Frame-time display format option added to new offset, loop-start and loop-end spin-boxes. (applies to samplv1 [2] and also partially to drumkv1 [3]) - Sample start point (offset) added as a brand new property parameter. (samplv1 [2] and drumkv1 [3] only) - Add LV2 UI Resize extension data support. - Process MIDI Controlllers even though the channel filter is on (DEF Channel is set anything but "Omni"). - AppData/AppStream metadata is now settled under an all permisssive license (FSFAP). Also, let it be known here, that there are a few and notable contributions currently evolving on the user documentation area, as follows:<ul> - synthv1 [1] manual, by Wladimir J. van der Laan: https://gist.github.com/laanwj/a197c90789e9b8c67dc2 - samplv1 [2] manual, by Menno Kenevel: https://github.com/rncbc/samplv1/wiki/User-Manual - samplv1 [2] manual, by m4lez: https://github.com/rncbc/samplv1/files/2220022/manual.odt.zip Please help if you can ;) The 'Vee One Suite' are free, open-source Linux Audio [10] software, distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL) [9] version 2 or later.

Faust conference: IFC 2018 videos are now online!

by Albert Graef

Hi everybody (and sorry for crossposting), as some of you may have noticed, IFC 2018 (the very first International Faust Conference) took place at the Johannes Gutenberg University at Mainz/Germany this week. It was a great conference IMHO, and if you couldn't attend, you can find videos of all the presentations and the Faust award on our YouTube channel now: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCAr7dIdjRWkyZfeBU1nzOQg (If you have a YouTube account, please subscribe to the channel, then we might be able to get a nicer link in the future -- I think we need 100 subscriptions to be eligible for that.) All the videos are in a single playlist which is (mostly) in 1-1 correspondence with the program at http://www.ifc18.uni-mainz.de/#program. Click here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6yvbWtD0asY&list=PLS2hQ1I9cbi4WFVhcBIuD259B… Apologies for the subpar audio quality in some spots! While most of our equipment was working really well and our stream team (Sebastian and Wingel) did a marvelous job, our wireless mikes turned out to be rather crappy -- we'll do better next time. ;-) Enjoy! :) Albert -- Dr. Albert Gr"af Computer Music Research Group, JGU Mainz, Germany Email: aggraef(a)gmail.com WWW: https://plus.google.com/+AlbertGraef
