Can someone give me some quick input on which would be better, 3 sb live
digitals or 3 sb 128 pci? I know the live is a better card, but I'm not
sure if alsa will give me (more?) trouble with either one.
Thanks!

Picking up again the thread of peer-to-peer distribution of legit Linux-made
music, I noticed that some people are using BitTorrent for their audio files:
http://wiki.etree.org/index.php?page=BitTorrentDownloads
Looks feasible for our kind of stuff. You do need to install a BitTorrent app,
but it's cross-platform.

Sorry if this has been asked before.....
Can anything tell me what source is for humming during LP playing? Is
it lack of grounding somewhere, or motor hum...just wondering....
I have a pretty generic hardware config on the stereo side...no high-end
cabling connecting turn-table to receiver (not really possible in this
situation), etc. Hadn't notice the hum before, probably because the LPs
were in such bad shape. Now I have an LP in good condition with quieter
sections, but there's this background.
Thanks in advance

I'm pretty new to Linux generally, having dabbled with it for six months
or so. I'm using RedHat 8.0 at the moment, on two machines. I've been
learning to use tarballs today, and have sucessfully installed
ladspa_sdk, and the xmms-ladspa plugin.
I've just compiled two very interesting looking ladspa plugins (preamp &
unmatched) but am not sure where I should put them to allow my ladspa
hosts to find them.
At some point soon (probably after my finals) I'm intending to spend
some time learning how to use CVS & eventually install Ardour...
I hope I'm not on completely the wrong track...
thanks

Hello,
While I know this is specfically an audio group, I'm thinking this is
still related, but I apologize if it is too far off topic.
I was wondering if anyone here has setup an IDE raid, either via hardware
or software. I ask because I know it usually would speed up disk access
which is good for realtime audio work (I had to work on a scsi system with
a layla for a customer of mine). I was looking at doing a striped raid
with 2 80 gigs (or maybe 2 120s).
I tried to setup a striping (then later a mirror) on my other machine
running slack 8.0 but had absolutely no luck whatsoever. Neither the
hardware on my motherboard (HPT370 on abit VP6) or just a simple software
raid worked. I will probably be using the same board for audio recording
unless someone has a better suggestion (looking at asus).
So, if anyone can give me any recommendations or hints/tips I would be
quite happy. :)
Thanks in advance,
Bryan
Hello,
We are in need of some advice about (i) whether our existing hardware is
suitable for installing planet, mainly for streaming purposes. (ii)
recommendation of a cheap soundcard. any advice would be very gratefully
received.
We are running a community show on a local radio in an open space right
now, and are broadcasting on FM, via the stream. mp3/ogg. The stream is
64k. That is really the entire purpose of a machine we are thinking about
installing here. There is a machine that we can dedicate than this: it
would have no other purpose really.
We would like to install ccrma, but have the following system, and wonder
if it can cope, and whether ccrma is capable of dealing with it:
it is a double processor: 2x133, 64mb. can this cope with live 64k
encoding? and can the RH planet ccmra cope with the double processor?
We are a volunteer grassroots project and have a very little budget (our
equipmednt is donated, hence the system above). Could someone advise on a
sound card for under $50? (either for this machine or another)
thanks very much for any help!
please could you mail me directly as well as the list (its very hectic
here as we're on this every day at he moment).

Hello,
I have a SBLive and under Windoze I was using the rear analog out as my
main output since it provide a better signal (due to the I2C DAC instead
of the AC97 codec).
After installing Alsa and playing with amixer I managed to get the rear
output work .. but only for the wave out !! I could not hear the Digital
CD out nor the internal synth output !!
I switched to the front output and everything work fine.
Does someone know how to route CD output and Synth output to the rear out ?
Thanks in advance,

I'm trying to compile Gnome wave cleaner. When I run configure,
it tells me that I need libsndfile 1.0.0 or greater. I already
downloaded libsndfile 1.0.4, and did the usual
configure/make/make install. However, GWC's configure program
still gives me the same error message. I don't know what's going
on.
Thanks.
