[linux-audio-user] [RFC] Request For Contest - The Linux-2.6 theme song contest !

by Robert Jonsson

Hi Everybody, This mail is a direct consequence of the song Austin Acton posted recently. :) A nice little tune made with linux, about linux, that has been quite successful with very little advertisement. After a few brain rotations (before you ask, yes, I think by rotating my brain) I came to the conclusion that RIGHT NOW is a wonderful time to start a write_the_best_linux_song_contest! My reasoning is that linux-2.6 is just around the corner, people are hungry for any kind of linux related information, no matter how far fetched (I don't even think this is very far fetched). Making a little contest to choose THE linux-2.6-theme-song seems like a very good way to attract some easy publicity, the main thing we want to do is make people interested in (and aware of) audio production under linux. I'm confident that Slashdot (or any news site in the free software world for that matter) would gladly do a story on this event. BUT before we get to that, let's atleast produce some music ! :) Some criteria I thought would be applicable: - The song must be about linux in some way (about linux 2.6 seems the obvious choice). - The song must be (atleast) processed with a computer and that computer must run linux. - No computer running an operating system that is nonfree can be used in the production. (External synthesizers or similar stuff with advanced capabilties don't count as computers and can thus be used) - The song must be written by the artist (possibly used with permission). - The song would preferably contain some kind of voice track ( it might be hard to hear that it's about linux otherwise, and it would be nice to know how you people sound :-) - the better the audio quality the better, though I think there are other qualities of the recordings that count. - Some info about the applications/gear used should be included (atleast applications). - No prices, just free publicity for anybody that joins, and most publicity for those that reach the top in the event that we actually pull of a vote. We already got one song, Austins! I'm in the middle of producing a naive electronic piece myself (I mainly play the guitar) that I think will be applicable also. But... two songs don't make a contest... So, what do you say? Are we up to it? I'm calling all linux-artist wannabees, this is the time! I dare all developers that aren't on a deadline to take some time of from coding and also participate, bring out the artist in you! :) Wouldn't you just die to hear "The ballad of Alan Cox", or "Linus' Theme" or "The Bitkeeper Blues" :) (those are free btw if anyone gets any bright ideas ;) >From now til, say, December 14, one month, might be enough time to do something creative, yes? Let me know if there is any interest for this then I will try to formalize things a bit, website etc. Well don't just sit there, let's do it! :) /Robert

[linux-audio-user] 2.6.0 song theme... request.

by Gian Paolo Mureddu

A few days ago (like a week or so) someone posted a link to this incredible song. Now my request is to ask the author or any other user who might have a better clue than I as to what do the lyrics say. Since English is not my mother language I have been having a hard time to decipher some parts or the song (though I undertand pretty much everything :-) ). Ohhh... And ATM I'm at another computer, could you please also post the link again so I can grab the song in this computer? Thanks, all!.

[linux-audio-user] ecasound and software midi controller

by Alex Marandon

Hello, This my first post in this list so I introduce myself. I am non-native english speaker, so forgive me if my english is not correct, I hope at least it will be understandable ;) About my computer skills I'd say that I'm an advanced beginner in Linux and *BSD systems, i'm very far to be expert but I manage to deal with my own problems without much pain now. I work as a Perl/Python programmer and I slowly learn C/C++. For a few days now I've started to explore the world of linux audio-related software, so I'm a real newbie on this topic. I've played a little bit with ecasound (i love its concept) and I wonder if there is a way to control parameters of operators in realtime using software midi-controllers. If yes, what software to use ? What configuration ? Is it possible, and how to perform automation in order to replay what was done manually ? Any information about how to achive this goal is welcome. Thanks.

[linux-audio-user] jack stereo

by Paul Brossier

Hi all. I had a sudden doubt about my left and my right. I was firing up jack (through qjackctl, lazy i am) and then 'alsaplayer -o jack somefiles*', getting the output playing fine. But then when i tried to mute a channel with the balance in alsaplayer, the unmuted channel was sent to both speakers. Even when disconnecting the left cable, the right channel was still outputed on both left and right ?! I found the trick while writing this email, so i thought i should let you know. The culprit was the 3D Control switch of my emu10k1, which was set to on. Note for later, i won't use these one and a half D things again :) Cheers, piem

[linux-audio-user] Retro UNIX Programming for Audio

by davidrclark＠earthlink.net

Greetings Linux Audio Users. This posting is to announce and describe a project that I have undertaken over the past two years with the grand hope that somebody may care. My goal is to gauge outside interest to determine whether or not to spend time packaging the source code for distribution, which I have not even started yet. It would be some time before a release package was available, for which I apologize. To provide a very brief description of the project: It could be described as CSound without the CSound environment; things are done via ordinary scripts and at the command line. It's also like the GLAME Filternetwork, but without pictures or a GUI. A lame version of GLAME? Perhaps it most closely resembles ecasound, except that it's a set of programs for audio in the same manner that awk, grep, tr, paste, and sed are for text files. Ah, but there is more.... BACKGROUND A couple of years ago, I decided to tackle PHYSICAL MODELLING of large rooms such as concert halls... ---------------------------- So as not to clutter things up for everyone, continued on: home.earthlink.net/ TILDEdavidrclark /linux_audio_users/project_announce.html where TILDE is ~ or shift-accent-grave, and the three lines are combined into one URL.

[linux-audio-user] Ardour question for ardour people out there...

by Aaron Trumm

hi - this is really a question for the Ardour list, but for reasons beyond my control, I can't get on the list (my ISP's fault) - so any of your Ardour people - is it expected that Ardour would only allow 32 channels of output? to explain, I found this out while mixing a project where I had 24 tracks in ardour, all of which went to a different one of my 24 channels of output on my HDSP 9652 card - everything great. then I started adding a few tracks, to be submixed - for example, channel 17 was vocals, and I had two more vocal tracks in ardour, also routed to 17 for a nice little submix. workin' great. but upon adding the 33rd track, it wouldn't allow me to assign it to any output (I wish I could remember the log message it gives me). since it was exactly 32 I thought maybe it was an actual on purpose (or at least temporarily on purpose) capability limitation and thought nothing of it it only just now occurred to me to ask if it's not on purpose, but a bug or a problem I'm having (in which case I would want to fix, or report, if it were a bug)... thanks! --------------------------------------------------------------- Houston Poetry Slam Team www.houstonpoetryslam.com NQuit Records www.nquit.com ---------------------------------------------------------------

[linux-audio-user] scopes and RTAs?

by Aaron Trumm

Hello all - I was just parusing Recording Mag and got reminded of a question - are there any software based Oscilliscopes or RTAs out there, for doing some measuring and such? (I don't THINK I've found such a thing yet, but I have much on my list I haven't gone through yet)... --------------------------------------------------------------- Houston Poetry Slam Team www.houstonpoetryslam.com NQuit Records www.nquit.com ---------------------------------------------------------------
