Hi all, I have an edirol SC D70 (Sound Canvas Digital) which works out-of-the-box with the usb-audio driver. I get 3 MIDI ports (2 MIDI ports of the SC and 1 external MIDI I/O). This device is also an audio interface, but I haven't found how to configure it (if it's possible). Maybe I have to add another snd-usb-audio driven card to modules.conf? I tried to write to alsa-devel, but since I'm not subscribed to that list, the message doesn't show in the archives... so I suspect that it has never been received. Also the page at alsa.opensrc.org doesn't seem to have information on this for the SC D70 Can you help me? TIA PS: I'll have to second Levi and Brian and thank you all for making linux+audio such an exiting combo !!! PPS: sorry for my crappy english... -- .---------------------. | Emiliano Grilli | | emillo(a)libero.it | | Linux user #209089 | '---------------------'

[linux-audio-user] SB Audigy - recommendable?

by Burkhard Woelfel

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi all, I am considering to buy a soundcard for around 100$ and there is an offer for a SB Audigy. Any recommendations? I read that the driver on Sourceforge is still experimental. Did anyone experience problems using that driver? What should I know or consider?

This MIDI interface works fine under Windows, so whatever causes the problem is purely a Alsa MIDI issue. If we can figure it out, then we can fix it. I agree that it sounds like this sort of one note per timer tick. When the interface is supposed to send a chord, it sends what sounds like an arpegiated chord. It's all smeared out. Is there some example code I could look at to understand implementing a FIFO? However, if there is a FIFO Full indication, doesn't we need to know _how_ it's indicated? I would assume it's different for all cards? (Bus possibly similar for cards from the same manufacturer? Also, this is the HDSP 9652, which is a single PCI card. Is this problem showing up for the DigiFace/MultiFace type cards? Thanks, Mark

usb-audio feedback was Re: [linux-audio-user] poor audio quality in tX?

by iriXx

hi, i'm just checking the archives re: patrick's problem with audio quality under X, as my quattro is configured ok now but making only loud feedback noise when i go to play anything.... my mouse section in XF86Config-4 is as follows: Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Mouse1" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "PS/2" Option "Device" "/dev/psaux" Option "Emulate3Buttons" Option "Emulate3Timeout" "50" EndSection i'm using the trackpoint on my thinkpad 600E - should i change any of this? i think i'm using gdm as well - at least, i have a file called /etc/gdm-root.conf - no /etc/gdm.conf tho.... please help.... i'm really stumped for what might be causing all the feedback noise as its never happened before in mdk 8.2.... everything was fine there.... im using supplied alsa rpms from mandrake 9.0 (there was a long discussion on the pros and cons of this before, have gone with the rpms, against my preference but because its hard to extract them once installed).... thanx m~ > I have seen crazy mouse syndrome in X when switching from a wheel mouse > to a non-wheel mouse (and maybe the other way around too).

[linux-audio-user] signal processing kits

by Fabio de Matos

Hi, I'm looking for a platform for signal processing, who can be used in command line mode ( matlab like ), but is based in low level code ( c or c++ ), and block based signal chain. I wish i could find some kind of front end to any standard plugin types. It was desirable also that the standard plugin used is able to handle data other than audio ( not so hard, i believe ), and in other domains than time ( e.g. frequency, statistical, and weirdo like domains ). Preferably it should have support for gui also, basically for plotting graphics only. thanks all, Fabio

[linux-audio-user] via82cxxx_audio

by Sakari Aaltonen

With help from a few kind people here, I got my ALSA sound working with xine. However, this was at 8 bits of color depth, and the video picture was not too good. So I tried 16 bits, which made xine fail, as it did MPlayer. But at 24 bits, MPlayer came to life and showed a picture that was (probably) as good as it gets. But... MPlayer doesn't like ALSA sound. It tries to keep video and audio in sync for 10 or 15 seconds; then it gives up and goes silent. It says my system is too slow; one of the reasons might be slow audio. So I thought I'd try the via82cxxx_audio module that is in the "official" 2.4.20 kernel. But... I can't insmod the module. It complains /lib/modules/2.4.20/kernel/drivers/sound/via82cxxx_audio.o: init_module: No such device Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters. You may find more information in syslog or the output from dmesg /lib/modules/2.4.20/kernel/drivers/sound/via82cxxx_audio.o: insmod /lib/modules/ 2.4.20/kernel/drivers/sound/via82cxxx_audio.o failed /lib/modules/2.4.20/kernel/drivers/sound/via82cxxx_audio.o: insmod via82cxxx_audio failed (No, neither syslog nor dmesf offers more information.) Am I missing a /dev? Which one? Thank you, Sakari Aaltonen

[linux-audio-user] Terratec 128i PCI and MIDI

by Steve Harris

Hi, I just bought the obove card (an ES1969 Solo-1 apparently), in order to do MIDI, but I cant seem to get anything to work. $ cat /proc/asound/Solo1/midi0 MPU-401 (UART) Output 0 Tx bytes : 1400 Input 0 Rx bytes : 0 Buffer size : 4096 Avail : 0 Overruns : 0 But I tried connecting the external midi device to ASM with kaconnect and nothing appearing in the log window and the number dont change in proc when I press keys on a keyboard. I've replaced the joystick->midi cable and I'm not sure what else to try. Help! - Steve

[linux-audio-user] quick ardour question

by Jonathan Turner

just a quick question (hopefully). In ardour I've been able to get a track to playback while recording another track, but I can't seem to play more than two tracks at a time, nor am I able to play two tracks while recording another. Is this a ALSA/soundcard limitation (I have the intel 8x0 series)? Okay, I lied, one more quick question... I've had ardour not play back samples when recording and I can't seem to put my finger one what causes it to mute the sample playback and what allows it to do duplex. Thanks all Jonathan
