If you're feeling adventurous you can try Ardour. Here is my page on setting it up (this isn't easy): http://myweb.cableone.net/eviltwin69/ALSA_JACK_ARDOUR.html To hear some quick demos that I made with Ardour you can check out: http://myweb.cableone.net/eviltwin69/fuzzy.html Jan -----Original Message----- From: "linux-audio-user-admin(a)music.columbia.edu" <linux-audio-user-admin(a)music.columbia.edu> on behalf of "Marco Desiderati" <marco.desiderati(a)caliari.it> Sent: Wed, 28 May 2003 13:57:27 +0200 To: "linux-audio-user(a)music.columbia.edu" <linux-audio-user(a)music.columbia.edu> Subject: [linux-audio-user] Making a demo. Hi everybody. I'm an italian bass player and I'd like to record a 4 songs demo for the band I play in with my PC (with Linux obviously). I'm searching for someone who can suggest me any documentation/book regarding this argument and/or share with me his experience (the hardware/software used and so on ...). Thanks in advance for your reply, Marco.

[linux-audio-user] Jack doesn't start correctly?

by Rohan Parkes

I installed Jack from Planet-CCRMA. I have a Soundblaster Live with RH 9.0. However, Jack doesn't seem to start completely. I understand that I should be able to basically start Jack using jackd -d alsa -d hw:0 or jackstart -R -d alsa -d hw -r 44100 However, it stops at jackd -d alsa -d hw:0 loading driver .. creating alsa driver ... hw:0|1024|2|48000|swmon|rt I think it should set up channels, etc. Jack-dependent apps complain that Jack isn't working. Several times, it has done this correctly, but I can't understand why it worked then but doesn't now. As far as I can see, the ALSA drivers are loaded and working. I'm fairly new to ALSA, so I can't provide much more information than this. Could anyone offer any advice? -- Rohan Parkes <rparkes(a)email.com>

[linux-audio-user] Audigy 6.1 platinum and Linux

by Joerg Anders

Hi all! Some time ago I asked for a PCI soundcard which can deal with *.sf(2) soundfonts and works on Linux. I was told "soundblaster live 512" is a good choice. But this soundcard is unknown to all resellers. (They know "soundblaster live 5.1", but I'm afraid it has no hardware MIDI synthesizer.) Now a reseller recommended "Audigy 6.1 platinum". Is there anybody who has experiences with this type of soundcard? Escpecially: Does the hardware MIDI synthesizer work on Linux? Can I change the orchestra using "sfxload" ? -- J.Anders, Chemnitz, GERMANY (ja(a)informatik.tu-chemnitz.de)

[linux-audio-user] usb midi

by R Parker

Hi, I'm trying to figure out what device I should point applications (ardour) at in order for them to see incoming mmc and to send mtc. I've got what appears to be a working USB midiman 8x8: >aconnect -i client 0: 'System' [type=kernel] 0 'Timer ' 1 'Announce ' client 72: 'Rawmidi 1 - MidiSport 8x8' [type=kernel] 0 'MidiSport 8x8 Port 0' 1 'MidiSport 8x8 Port 1' 2 'MidiSport 8x8 Port 2' 3 'MidiSport 8x8 Port 3' 4 'MidiSport 8x8 Port 4' 5 'MidiSport 8x8 Port 5' 6 'MidiSport 8x8 Port 6' 7 'MidiSport 8x8 Port 7' 8 'MidiSport 8x8 Port 8' >aconnect -o client 72: 'Rawmidi 1 - MidiSport 8x8' [type=kernel] 0 'MidiSport 8x8 Port 0' 1 'MidiSport 8x8 Port 1' 2 'MidiSport 8x8 Port 2' 3 'MidiSport 8x8 Port 3' 4 'MidiSport 8x8 Port 4' 5 'MidiSport 8x8 Port 5' 6 'MidiSport 8x8 Port 6' 7 'MidiSport 8x8 Port 7' 8 'MidiSport 8x8 Port 8' With a M-Audio Audiophile 2496 I used device="/dev/snd/midiC1D0" but this device doesn't seem to be working. /dev/snd/ has the following devices: controlC0 midiC1D0 pcmC0D0c pcmC0D0p seq timer I'm using alsa-patch-bay to manage the connections: Could not subscribe ports: Subscription Rawmidi 1 - MidiSport 8x8::MidiSport 8x8 Port 1 -> Rawmidi 1 - MidiSport 8x8::MidiSport 8x8 Port 0 failed: Resource temporarily unavailable Subscription 'Rawmidi 1 - MidiSport 8x8::MidiSport 8x8 Port 1' -> 'Rawmidi 1 - MidiSport 8x8::MidiSport 8x8 Port 1' succeeded Subscription 'Rawmidi 1 - MidiSport 8x8::MidiSport 8x8 Port 1' -> 'Rawmidi 1 - MidiSport 8x8::MidiSport 8x8 Port 2' succeeded Subscription 'Rawmidi 1 - MidiSport 8x8::MidiSport 8x8 Port 1' -> 'Rawmidi 1 - MidiSport 8x8::MidiSport 8x8 Port 3' succeeded Subscription 'Rawmidi 1 - MidiSport 8x8::MidiSport 8x8 Port 1' -> 'Rawmidi 1 - MidiSport 8x8::MidiSport 8x8 Port 4' succeeded Subscription 'Rawmidi 1 - MidiSport 8x8::MidiSport 8x8 Port 1' -> 'Rawmidi 1 - MidiSport 8x8::MidiSport 8x8 Port 5' succeeded Subscription 'Rawmidi 1 - MidiSport 8x8::MidiSport 8x8 Port 1' -> 'Rawmidi 1 - MidiSport 8x8::MidiSport 8x8 Port 6' succeeded Subscription 'Rawmidi 1 - MidiSport 8x8::MidiSport 8x8 Port 1' -> 'Rawmidi 1 - MidiSport 8x8::MidiSport 8x8 Port 7' succeeded Subscription 'Rawmidi 1 - MidiSport 8x8::MidiSport 8x8 Port 1' -> 'Rawmidi 1 - MidiSport 8x8::MidiSport 8x8 Port 8' succeeded OK, that all seems fairly normal but I'm thinking it isn't. From the 8x8 perspective; incoming data to the 8x8 Midi IN 2 should go out of all eight channels but it fails to go out channel 1. So, there's something funny going on. This is according to the indicator lights on the front of the 8x8. >From Alsa's perspective Midi IN 2 = port 1 Anyway, I've been up all nite and am tired. If my message isn't clear enough please ask questions and I'll reply. Hey, ladcca, alsa-patchbay and the 8x8 firmware driver are lookin' sweet. Thanks much! ron __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? The New Yahoo! Search - Faster. Easier. Bingo. http://search.yahoo.com

[linux-audio-user] Volume control with Delta44

by Ross Vandegrift

Hello all, I've got a Delta44 and have some volume control issues with it. I'm sure it a result of me not understanding the more complicated volume and gain controls I've got. 1) Under GNU/Linux, the system sounds good and everything, but input volume is *very* touchy. envy24control has two sets of sliders that seem to affect input levels - ADC[0123] and IPGA[0123]. If I set the input levels with the ADC sliders, the IPGA sliders are automatically zero'ed. Even with ADC all the way up, levels are way to low to be useful. If I set the input level with the IPGA sliders, the ADC are automatically maxed out, but things become really touchy - it's easy for me to clip. 2) Despite all of this, the card still doesn't have the volume sensitivity it does under Windows. With Windows, a condenser mic is fully as sensitive as it should be. Under GNU/Linux, it leaves a little bit to be desired. What's the right way to control this stuff? -- Ross Vandegrift ross(a)willow.seitz.com A Pope has a Water Cannon. It is a Water Cannon. He fires Holy-Water from it. It is a Holy-Water Cannon.
