[linux-audio-user] How to get a list loaded soundfont ?

by mutah

Hi, I've got an audigy and I'm happy to be able to load soundfonts with sfxload from awesfx. One thing I can't figure out to do is to display a list the loaded soundfont.... As somebody some success about that ? I'm asking this question because I'm writing a script to load soundfont map in my rosegarden project. I've managed to dump bank and instrument from a sf2 file (with help of sf2cfg) into rosegarden xml format, so I can choose the correct instrument for rosegarden midi tracks. (May be this script could be useful for fluidsynth user too) Thanks fo any clue

[linux-audio-user] New Linux Audio Column in Linux Journal

by Joern Nettingsmeier

hello linux audio enthusiasts! reading lwn.net this morning i found that the linux journal has a new linux audio column in their online edition, written by dave phillips. the current issue is at http://www.linuxjournal.com//article.php?sid=7283 . the content of this first issue will not be news to you, since it's basically a plug for the world's finest linux audio mailing lists, which you already seem to know about :) still, it's an interesting read, and it has had an effect already: about 30 new subscriptions (in addition to the usual continous growth) since wednesday... (see http://www.linuxdj.com/audio/lad/subscribe.php3 .) to all new readers: welcome aboard! best, jörn -- To someone whose only tool is a hammer, each problem looks like a nail. - Edsger W.

[linux-audio-user] Ecasound 2.3.2 released

by Kai Vehmanen

1. A short summary of changes Support has been added for libsndfile. This allows to access a number of new audio file formats such as W64, PVF and VOC files. Integration with libaudiofile and MikMod has also been improved. Bugs in the native Python ECI implementation have been fixed. Rubyecasound, a Ruby ECI implementation, has been added to the package. A serious memory-leak in list handling functions of the C ECI implementation was fixed. This bugfix also affects C++, Perl and PHP ECI implementations. Compiling Ecamegapedal works again as the header files missing from the previous 2.3.1 release are now again included in the dist-package. Many minor bugs have been fixed. --- 2. What is Ecasound? Ecasound is a software package designed for multitrack audio processing. It can be used for simple tasks like audio playback, recording and format conversions, as well as for multitrack effect processing, mixing, recording and signal recycling. Ecasound supports a wide range of audio inputs, outputs and effect algorithms. Effects and audio objects can be combined in various ways, and their parameters can be controlled by operator objects like oscillators and MIDI-CCs. A versatile console mode user-interface is included in the package. Ecasound is licensed under the GPL. The Ecasound Control Interface (ECI) is licensed under the LGPL. --- 3. Changes since last release * Rubyecasound, a Ruby ECI implementation, has been added to the package. Developer documentation can be found at <http://eca.cx/eci>. Rubyecasound was developed by Jan Weil. * Some files were missing from the previous 2.3.1 release dist-package. This caused the "make check" test procedure to fail, and also prevented from compiling Ecamegapedal against 2.3.1. In 2.3.2 the missing files are once again included in the dist-package. * Libsndfile support has been added to Ecasound (development item 'edi-33'). Support for libaudiofile has also been improved in this release. The user can now compile in support for both libraries at the same time. It is possible to use command-line options to select which library to use for a given file. Similar improvements have been made to the MikMod support. See the ecasound(1) man page for more details. * Some bugs in libsamplerate integration have been fixed. Upgrading to libsamplerate version 0.0.15 or newer is recommended. This release contains a few important fixes that affect Ecasound. A few examples of resampling with Ecasound have been added to the docs: <http://www.wakkanet.fi/~kaiv/ecasound/Documentation/examples.html>. * A severe memory-leak bug was found and fixed in the C ECI implementation. This bug affects applications that heavily use EIAM commands that return lists of strings. The C ECI is used by C++, Perl, PHP and Python ECI implementations. * Bugs in the native Python ECI implementation have been fixed. The C-based Python ECI implementation is still selected as the default, but you can override this with the '--enable-pyecasound=python' option to configure. Note, 'native' here means that ECI API is implemented without linking to any Ecasound libraries. Instead the ECI implementation forks 'ecasound' binary on the background and communicates with it using pipes. This allows for clear decoupling between ECI apps and specific Ecasound version. More information about ECI can be found at <http://www.eca.cx/eci>. Full list of changes is available at <http://www.wakkanet.fi/~kaiv/ecasound/history.html>. --- 4. Interface and configuration file changes None. --- 5. Contributors Patches - Accepted code, documentation and build system changes Jan Weil (2) -- rubyecasound ECI implementation, new docs Mark de Wever (1) -- typo in libecasoundc-config usage Kai Vehmanen (various) Bug Hunting - Reports that led to bugfixes (items closed) Fernando Pablo Lopez-Lezcano (1) -- preset.h not installed Jan Weil (1) -- the ecacontrol.py bug --- 6.

Shirkey This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it under certain conditions; see the file COPYING for details.

[linux-audio-user] Looking to buy the ST Audio C-Port

by Luke Yelavich

Hi all. I am looking to possibly buy the ST Audio C-Port soundcard, with rack mountable I/O unit. I remember reading that this card was usable under Linux, but also read on this mailing list that the MIDI features of the card were unusable. Has that been resolved, as I can't find the card in the card matrix, not even in the new updated version that Patric s putting together. Thoughts and suggestions welcome.
