RE: [linux-audio-dev] Echo Darla/Gina/Layla/... on Linux

by Ranjit Singh

>My only interest is in th interface components useful in making a device >driver. Sure. I was just curious as to whether there was scope at a later to date to play with the DSP code. I've looked at the source again (cheers, David ;) and I can see what David means, in that for each device (Darla20, Darla24 etc) there is a block of data defined eg in Darla20DSP.c (in the DSP folder) which is the microcode to load into the DSP. So we don't need to mess about with that at this stage, if ever- TBH the hex doesn't look like code seqs to me (especially the Mia stuff) more like tables of setup info. Still, as you say, it's irrelevant to what we're doing, which is to interface that DSP to higher level functions. Sorry if all this is obvious; hopefully writing up our understanding of what's going on will help others.

y'all know i like chrome-y interfaces, and that i like the use of color to improve usability. here's one that shows just how *BAD* it can get: http://www.harmony-central.com/Newp/2003/Girl-20-OS-X-lg.gif

[linux-audio-dev] OT: Computer Music magazines for sale

by Dr William Bland

Hello, Sorry for the OT message but I thought those of you within the UK might be interested. I am selling lots of Computer Music magazines on Ebay. I will post to within the UK, and all the auctions start at just 10p (with no reserve), which is pretty good considering each magazine comes with a CD containing loads of samples and software (and they cost me 5UKP each). You can see the auctions (with photos and descriptions) at: http://search.ebay.co.uk/search/search.dll?MfcISAPICommand=GetResult&ebayta… Thanks for your time. Cheers, Bill. -- Dr. William Bland.

[linux-audio-dev] SiS "Hyperstreaming"

by Steve Harris

It appears to be some kind of latency optimisation for busses, but I can;t really work out what it does. Theres a whitepaper about it here: http://www.sis.com/hs_tech/ The claim is that it can reduce system latency by proritising certain streams. I think. If you could express these priorities to the kernel it might be of some use. Anyone know more about it? - Steve

Re: [linux-audio-dev] link: Sound on Sound: Cutting Edge : The Future of Music Technology

by Patrick Shirkey

I found it hilarious that the writer found that Linux is not viable because none of the *big names* in audio software support it. Doesn't matter about the companies that actually make the machines though. Nooooooo sirrreee. It's the software manufacturers who we should all be sucking up to. However he is, he is definitely uber cool. -- Patrick Shirkey - Boost Hardware Ltd.

Re: [linux-audio-dev] Modular synths of the world, unite and take over :-)

by ico＠fuse.net

How about having all apps implement Open Sound Control (some of them already have, such as pd, csound etc.)? Then you could control them all from one source (i.e. RTMix). Then, suddenly there would be no redundancy ;-)...

Fair enough, I don't know enough about linux module coding. If we can get a 60% functional version in less than a week, I'd be dead chuffed! ;) We're effectively talking about a driver for the Motorola DSP onboard (I can't remember what the no is.) We first need to get it to C code- isn't that what the CPP used to do? Sorry, it's been a while. 8-)
