[linux-audio-user] Anyone using multiface+cardbus?

by Jaakko Prättälä

Hi. Is anyone using rme multiface with the cardbus interface on a linux laptop? I'm thinking of buying one to use with live processing with pd. Are there any problems? Does midi work? I saw a message in the alsa-doc saying that you have to downgrade the firmware (in windows), is this still true? -- Jaakko Prättälä Jaakko.Prattala(a)Helsinki.FI

[linux-audio-user] modprobe failure installing ALSA for SB32 (AWE)

by Max Webb

I hope this isn't a stupid question, but I'm fairly inexperienced with both linux and the ALSA driver. I believe I followed the instructions closely for building and installing the driver, libs, and utilities for ALSA; I have a PnP soundblaster 32 (AWE) card (not isa), and selected the sbawe name for the card from the table at www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/ . Everything seemed to be going okay, until I got to doing the modprobe to install the module in the kernel. When I issued the "modprobe snd-sbawe" command, I got a failure. Since modprobe has a "-d" option, I have included it's output below, in case that yields a clue. I see that the insmod portion of the command failed, so I also issued that at top level, so you could all see the way that fails - issued by itself, it finds unresolved symbols - but I don't know if that is the way it failed inside modprobe. BTW, the "modprobe snd-seq-oss" failed with "device busy" - the other two modprobes seemed to succeed. Can anyone tell me what I need to do?

[linux-audio-user] Vocal removal?

by Darren Landrum

Sorry if this question has been posed before, but I couldn't find anything in a search of the archives. I have a friend that needs to remove the vocals in one of her own songs (due to a conflict in getting the masters back that is too long of a story to go into right now). Are there any good Linux tools for this task? Thank you for all of your help. Regards, Darren Landrum

[linux-audio-user] alsa rme hdsp driver, firmware rev 11

by Jaakko Prättälä

Hi all. Has anyone got a rme hdsp with firmware revision 11 working with alsa? If you do, could you send me your hdsp.c (maybe hammerfall_mem.c too) as an attachment? Or even better, a diff against current alsa cvs. I'd *so* like to get my multiface running. The red error led is nice, but a bit less than what I need from the card :-) If you have a non-working version, what error message do you get from the driver in /var/log/messages? I get: Mar 23 16:54:29 kiertotahti kernel: Hammerfall memory allocator: no Hammerfall cards found... Mar 23 16:54:29 kiertotahti kernel: RME Hammerfall-DSP: no cards found and on the command line: [root@kiertotahti jaakko]# /sbin/modprobe snd-hdsp /lib/modules/2.4.19scsi_lowlat_acpi/kernel/sound/pci/rme9652/snd-hdsp.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/2.4.19scsi_lowlat_acpi/kernel/sound/pci/rme9652/snd-hdsp.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.19scsi_lowlat_acpi/kernel/sound/pci/rme9652/snd-hdsp.o failed /lib/modules/2.4.19scsi_lowlat_acpi/kernel/sound/pci/rme9652/snd-hdsp.o: insmod snd-hdsp failed I'm just trying to track where the error is. I don't even know my firmware version number but I suppose it's the latest since I just bought the multiface a few days ago. -- Jaakko Prättälä Jaakko.Prattala(a)Helsinki.FI

[linux-audio-user] Low latency patch for Mandrake 9.0 kernel

by Luke Yelavich

Hi folks I don't have the bandwidth, download allowance, or time to grab a Planet CCRMA kernel patched with low latency. I am wondering whether anybody knows where I could find patches that would successfully patch the Mandrake 9.0 default kernel source for low latency and pre-empt. Thanks in advance Luke.

[linux-audio-user] Midi output

by Alexander Feder

Hi! I'm new to that list, i'm Alexander Feder, student in Vienna. I play synthesizer and [E-]violin and finally want to try to sequence and record what i'm playing. It seems though there is lots to do before i can do that. I've bought a M-Audio Audiophile 24/96 card which i've set up using Alsa. Audio works fine when using the oss-emulation, but trying to access the card directly (aplay -D hw:0,0, or using the alsa-xmms plugin or with ecasound) fails with "Sample format non available". Isn't that odd? I've thought alsa-oss-emulation would be just another layer on top of what i would access when using aplay & co. .. Recording works fine (also using oss), i've used ecasound for adding nice real time effects while playing my e-violin. i can control everything with envy24control though.... Another problem i have is sequencing, actually midi as a whole. Neither outputting with pmidi, playmidi or muse works. I'm quite sure i've put all cables correctly into the Audiophile and my Yamaha CS1x synth. Both cables (male-male) are 5 pin, the one that i've plugged into the [in] in my soundcard and to [out] on my synth has 3 pins used (4,2,5 - the three in the middle) and the other cable has all 5 pins used. I've checked every combination with my ohm-meter, so there is no short-circuit. All pins are mapped 1:1. 'pmidi -l' gives 64:0 Rawmidi 0 - M Audio Audiophile M Audio Audiophile 24/96 MPU-401 trying to output a midi file with pmidi (which i have successfully outputted using playmidi on a pc with an sb16 and oss, iirc) results in no audible result. :/ (pmidi -p 64:0 test.mid) muse outputs something more interesting whenever a note should be played: MidiAlsaDevice::putEvent(): midi write error, returns -19 expected 28: No such device Which i further find odd is that muse is not willing to start playing unless i've first stepped into the config->audio system to apply the already activated setting of No Audio. Before that the transport indicator will not move. Further when i activate "Use Alsa" muse exits with the "ALSA: Sample format not available" message. So does this mean i can't trust what /proc/asound/seq/clients and pmidi -l says? or does that mean that at the other end, where my synth should be, is no device attached? same problem in the other direction. muse does not receive any signals from my cs1x. I've recorded with this cs1x successfully on another pc with.. another os.. so i think the hardware works. I'm using Debian GNU/Linux Sid on an Athlon, alsa 0.9.1-2 (for base and libs). The things i described both happen on vanilla 2.4.20 with the alsa drivers coming with debian (also 0.9.1-2) and on a 2.4.20 WOLK-kernel (rc3) with the integrated alsa-drivers. (these behave slightly different, for example i can't set the DAC volume with envy24control with the wolk-kernel - the sliders don't move. this works fine with the vanilla kernel.) what could i be doing wrong? or could it be that the soundcard itself is broken? i have no other OS to falsify that.. :/ thank you very much for any help in advance bye xandi

[linux-audio-user] planet CCRMA / muse core-dumps

by Guy Daniel CLOTILDE

Hi all I got Red Hat 8.0 on my toshiba 4300 laptop (ymfpci sound card). I followed all the planet ccrma install advices and ended with 'apt-get install muse'. But just after launch muse core-dumps. If I run 'muse some_song.mid' in a terminal I just can see the window with all the midi parts and then it disappears. It writes 'segmentation fault'. With my ymfpci card, I was able to play midifiles with playmidi (with Mandrake 9.0) . Everythings seems fine except midi sequencers. I wasn't able to run no midi sequencers either with Mandrake 9, that's why I tried Red Hat. I believe muse works perfectly good on other machines with red hat and planet ccrma. Everyone says that it works flawlessly, but mine doesn't :(( Anyone has a clue to why muse can't run ?

[linux-audio-user] Octavian 0.1.0 pre-beta released

by Roman Kaljakin

I am pleased to announce Octavian - a realtime software synthesizer for GNU\Linux operating system. Octavians's design is like analog modular synthesizers, so it can be used both as synth and as effect processor. Modular tasks separation allow to extend possibilities in simple way. Modules can be connected between each other via channels. Features: Audio Input/Output: - OSS - JACK MIDI Input/Output: - OSS - ALSA Plugin's compatability: - native modules - LADSPA This is first pre-beta release. It is a big subject for changes and improvements, so please send your wishes and bugreports.
