[linux-audio-user] ALSA: What is the website missing?

by Patrick Shirkey

As some of you already know I am the occasional webmaster/docs maintainer for ALSA. I have been planning some additions to the site to make it more accessible but before I jump into anything that could be considered a facelift I would like to get some opinions from y'all. Can you tell me what things you would like to have on the website that are not already there? What things have you noticed while using it that are not user friendly? I would like to add a database for some kind of card rating system. What would you consider valuable things to rate a card against? All opinions will be considered so don't hold back ;-] -- Patrick Shirkey - Boost Hardware Ltd. Http://www.boosthardware.com Http://www.djcj.org - The Linux Audio Users guide ======================================== Apparently upon the beginning of the barrage, the donkey broke discipline and panicked, toppling the cart. At that point, the rockets disconnected from the timer, leaving them strewn around the street. Tethered to the now toppled cart, the donkey was unable to escape before the arrival of U.S. troops.

[linux-audio-user] Recommendatio wanted

by Joerg Anders

Hi all! I used to play MIDI with AWE-64 with 24 MB RAM extention. So I could use the SF2 soundfonts. Unfortunately, the AWE-64 requires an EISA slot. Could please enybody recommend a PCI successor of the AWE64 which allows loading of SF2 soundfonts. Please do not recommend Audigy! This is a lie! The Audigy ALSA driver accidentally drops some tones. This is a known bug, but apparently nobody is willing to fix this See. http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/doc-php/template.php?company=Creative+… Furthermore it ignores reverbation and chorus instructions. Please do not recommend FluidSynth. To avoid misundersandings: Actually FluidSynth is a good software. But it produces wrog envelopes for strings and clarinets. The envelops are like xylophone (or so ...) I alreay mentioned this problem on this list. But without success. -- J.Anders, Chemnitz, GERMANY (ja(a)informatik.tu-chemnitz.de)

I checked and I'm actually using 0.5.19 if that makes any difference. Is there a tar ball of the more recent versions that will compile that I can test and see if the problem is fixed? The 0.5.31 version from CVS produced errors when I tried to build it. > > JackEQ seg faults no matter what I do. I was using version 0.3.7.

I'm up for doing a GDB session. However, as I've never personally had need for using GDB before, you would probably have to walk me through it. -Reuben

[linux-audio-user] Help with basic midi configuration

by Eduardo Guerrero

Hi, I'm on my first attempt at midi on Linux. I'm using MusE 0.6.0pre5 in Mandrake 9.1. I think I can start jack in a root console, but I guess for a simple test it isn't necessary, so I start muse and I get the GUI. I managed to record some notes but if I press play on the transport I don't hear anything. I'm using a sblive platinum and, for setting levels I'm using Alsa-Mixer GUI and for connections I'm using Alsa Patch Bay. I have been tweaking everything and haven't got any sound. It surely works since I can use XMMS and also I can load and hear midi tracks on KMidi. In my MusE Midi Port Table I have port 1, generic midi, going to the device EMU10K1 MPU-401 (UART) and the state shows as OK. Trying with different settings I have seen a message about DEVICE PLAYING or similar but can't remember what I did. On MusE the black activity meter is moving and mute cell has a green LED (?) on, I don't know if its on why I see such activity. But anyway I don't get any sound with it turned on or off. Any help would be appreciated, Eduardo

I'm away from home right now and my machine is offline so I will have to check later to make sure. I tried to compile 0.5.31 but I couldn't get it to build. Jamin will register itself to jack and then immediately die from a segmentation fault. Oddly enough, if I specify the input and output ports, it will fail to connect to the ports but at least it won't seg fault. JackEQ seg faults no matter what I do. I was using version 0.3.7. For what it's worth, I'm using: swh-plugins 0.4.3 Jack 0.90.1 (posix shm) Also, kind of unrelated, I just realized today that the newer versions of Jack no longer give me monitors. -Reuben

Hi all... on /., there is this story: Linux PCs Drive 74-Channel Pipe Organ at http://slashdot.org/articles/03/12/03/2320226.shtml?tid=141&tid=186&tid=188 The original articl is there: http://www.eetimes.com/sys/news/OEG20031203S0032 And there is this quote, making me feel warm and fuzzy :) "So the team set out to develop tone-generation software running on a stock PC. Windows was quickly rejected as unreliable, and development was done on the Linux operating system. " Well... not ready? GuyCLO~
