[linux-audio-dev] Re: final scratch + native instruments

Hi, All you might want to know about Traktor FS, may be found at http://www.nativeinstruments.de/index.php?id=traktorfs_us Where they clearly state: --8<----------- Final Scratch on Linux and Mac OS X: Powered by TRAKTOR FS -->8---------- BTW, I live next door to Native Instruments' office, and I heard and saw that Traktor DJ stuff working on their release party in our favourite low-tech cocktail bar, quite impressive, but those people (~30) of NI actually forgot to pay their bill for about 4 weeks ;) Alas, don't know what OS it was, but if something remains unclear, I might jump in my pants and go ask them.

I would dearly love to see some Layla20 ALSA drivers for Linux. I have been waiting for 3 years! I have no kernel hacking experience nor driver writing experience. Craig M. Moran Booz|Allen|Hamilton Advanced Technology Team 301-757-0616

[linux-audio-dev] Rectifier algorithm and Exponential FM question

by nickt

Hi, Sorry if this is the wrong list. I have never found a list with people who can help me with these kind of questions. I am trying to figure out how a rectifier works in code. I have created something like it using tanh() distribution ( which will turn a sine wave into a sort-of-square wave). I can also achieve it with hard clipping/saturation. In the same sense I'd also like to know how a smooth operation works as well. I can not find any source code or explanations to help me figure out the algorithm yet. My other question is how are exponential signals generated? I want to experiment with exponential FM. My only understanding of Exp. Fm is that it sweeps half down and full up ( at 440hz, it would sweep 220hz down and 880 hz up). I haven't much of an idea how this is achieved. How do I convert a sine wave into an exponential signal for Exp FM?

[linux-audio-dev] sonic foundry + sony

by Paul Davis

all my interactions with sonic foundry were unpleasant, and i have no idea what "rich media" means, but now we have another 800lb gorilla in the tent, and another valuation of how much its worth to create a program like Acid: US$18M. http://news.harmony-central.com/News/2003/Sony-Sonic-Foundry.html

[linux-audio-dev] JACK 0.70.4 release

by Taybin

JACK 0.70.4 release JACK is a low-latency audio server, written primarily for the GNU/Linux operating system. It can connect a number of different applications to an audio device, as well as allowing them to share audio between themselves. Its clients can run in their own processes (ie. as normal applications), or can they can run within the JACK server (ie. as a "plugin"). JACK is different from other audio server efforts in that it has been designed from the ground up to be suitable for professional audio work. This means that it focuses on two key areas: synchronous execution of all clients, and low latency operation. CHANGES: qjackconnect/jack_lsp bug fixed. now can use either SysV or POSIX shm methods. Linxu 2.4.4 is required for the POSIX method. Defaults to SysV, but can be switched with a ./configure option (--enable-posix-shm) new --enable-optimize configure time flag, for compiler optimization. jack_set_buffer_size_callback() de-deprecated. added port metering API. added option --timeout (OR -t) for client timeout. The default time is as before: 500 msec. jack_lsp now has usage (-h or --help) and version (--version) options. various bug fixes and documentation updates. CAVETS: The shm code requires the tmpfs kernel module either loaded or compiled in. A tmpfs filesystem must be mounted as well. This can be done by adding: tmpfs /dev/shm shm defaults 0 0 to /etc/fstab and running "mkdir /dev/shm; mount /dev/shm". In versions of linux prior to 2.4.4, tmpfs was known as shmfs. Client programs compile with the previous stable release (0.61.0) will need to be recompiled to work with 0.70.4. Client programs now need to also link against librt. That library should be automatically included via pkg-config. Taybin Rutkin

[linux-audio-dev] Synchronizing two Delta 1010 with ALSA ?

by Benno Senoner

(Sorry for reposting to LAD, I've already sent this to alsa-user but I'm unsure which list is more appropriate so I'm trying both) Hello, I have a machine with two DELTA 1010LT cards and they work very well with ALSA (using ALSA binaries from Planet CCRMA). I would like to write a single threaded application that is able to write on all out channels (analog outs 1-8 of card 1 and 2 = 16 channels) simultaneously. The card's manual says that in order to synchronize two cards one should select the first card as master and set the internal clock generation (I do this via envy24control) and then connecting the SPDIF-OUT of card 1 to the SPDIF-IN of card 2 and set the card 2's clock source to SPDIF-IN. So far so good (from the hardware point of view) I managed to write ALSA code that writes to a single card: it opens the PCM hw:0 device selects 10 channel interleaved S32_LE mode and then writes out some data. This works perfectly for a single card. Now my question: I would like to extend this app so that it writes to both cards simultaneously without going out of sync. I assume that the SPDIF writing and clocksouce selection provides this from a hardware point of view, but I am unsure how to proceed from with the application code since the ALSA docs do not mention such a scenario. currently for a single card setup, I do the usual card setup and then sit in a while loop that does while(1) { snd_pcm_writei(pcm_handle, audiobuf, MY_PERIOD_FRAMES); } Is the following way to extend the app to two cards correct ? call the functions to setup card 1 (hw:0) call the functions to setup card 2 (hw:1) while(1) { snd_pcm_writei(pcm_handle1, audiobuf1, MY_PERIOD_FRAMES); snd_pcm_writei(pcm_handle2, audiobuf2, MY_PERIOD_FRAMES); } (where audiobuf1 is the buffer sent to card 1 while audiobuf2 is the buffer sent to card 2) Or is some special "sync start" procedure needed ? I remember ALSA had/has provides some functionality in this regard but I was unable to find documentation about it. Thanks in advance for your help. PS: does the DELTA cards only support the interleaved mode ? The model seems a bit inefficient since in most apps the data sources are non interleaved audio streams. (eg a HDR app that outputs each audio track to a different audio channel) cheers, Benno http://linuxsampler.sourceforge.net ------------------------------------------------- This mail sent through http://www.gardena.net

[linux-audio-dev] [OT?] glibc problems

by Ivica Bukvic

Hi all, I know this is off-topic, but at this point I could use any help I could get since I am just about ready to do a clean reinstall (Something that I do really not feel like doing right now). I had Mdk 9.0 and upgraded it to 9.1. Since, when I have dynamically linked apps to the /usr/lib/libc.so.6 (or /usr/lib/libc.so) I always get the same error: Error while loading shared libraries: /usr/lib/libc.so.6: invalid ELF header I tried reinstalling 9.1 glibc and glibc-devel and that did not fix it. I also tried installing libelf rpm for mandrake and that did not do a thing. Finally I even installed the newest cooker version of these two files and I still come up with the same error. This brings me to a conclusion that the problem lies somewhere else, but where? Rebuilding of glibc from srpm eventually fails with some weird error (can't remember it any more), so that option is out of question. Furthermore, what is really odd, is that the clean install on another machine of the same distro does not have this problem, yet the files in question libc.so (and other related ones) are IDENTICAL to the ones I have on this machine (at least they were before I installed the latest glibc from the cooker). I also checked binutils package and it is the same on both machines. So what gives? Does anyone have any suggestions as to how could I go about resolving this issue? Any help at this point is greatly appreciated! Sincerely, Ivica Ico Bukvic, composer & multimedia sculptor http://meowing.ccm.uc.edu/~ico
