Hi, I am trying out a small project whereby I wanna transform my gentoo linux box (2.4.20-r5) into a linux dj rig. So far I have catalogued the bpms of all my mp3s with bpmdj, have an external mixer, but where I have hit a snag is configguring my system to see my 2 sound cards. My "primary" unit is an SB LIve and it runs smoothly under alsa. My second unit was initially an Aureal Vortex unit but the alsa drivers weren;t as "easy" to get going as the ones for an old SB Ensoniq 1370 that I had so I threw it in instead. And duly recopiled alsa with supoprt for both. I made changes to the /etc/modules.d/alsa, in the hope of getting devfs to create new nodes for the device...such as a second dsp and mixer....but as usual devfs is being a b*()*$ ..... does anyone know how I can get around my problems....or can anyone who has succesfullys set-up more than one soundcard in the same box give me any suggestons. Cheers Simon

[linux-audio-user] JACK splat

by Dave Phillips

Greetings: I'm having an interesting problem with JACK (0.81.1). When running it I can't start non-JACK apps, e.g., after starting JACK (with Rui's neat qjackctl) I'm unable to open Snd until I stop JACK. Is this expected behavior ? I hope not... Best regards, == Dave Phillips The Book Of Linux Music & Sound at http://www.nostarch.com/lms.htm The Linux Soundapps Site at http://linux-sound.org

by Pete Bessman

...isn't available on Linux. Any suggestions for what program and/or combination of programs I can use to get similar functionality? Peace, =Pete -- You can only run configure at the top level of the Ardour source tree. You don't want to know why this is true. Don't try to work around it.

[linux-audio-user] turning off CD polling in KDE

by Aaron Trumm

Hello all - many people seem to reccommend turning off CD polling to improve latency and such...I agree, but for the life of me I can't figure out how to do it! :) I'm running red hat 9 with KDE and the best i've been able to find is "turn it off somewhere in the KDE control panel" - does anyone have a more detailed account of where to go? thanks! -------------- Aaron Trumm NQuit www.nquit.com --------------

> > For now, though, I would work on updating alsa or solving > the firmware > issue (downgrade?). Yeah... I tried using the RME firmware update app on windows... but it did nothing to get get from 50 down to 11, even after a complete shutdown and power-off. I haven't even found 50 listed on the RME website as something that exists... but I sent a message to george@xvisionaudio, who is listed as an RME support person, so I might get a message on Monday. Anyway, hopefully the new alsa drivers will have a viable update. M

by BrbrOfSvl＠aol.com

Thanks for your suggestions... When I run "alsaconf" it finds the HDSP just fine, but when it tries to bring up the volume, I get this message: Starting sound driver snd-hdsp 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/2.4.20-18.1.caps/kernel/sound/snd-hdsp.o: init_module: No such device /lib/modules/2.4.20-18.1.caps/kernel/sound/snd-hdsp.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.20-18.1.caps/kernel/sound/snd-hdsp.o failed /lib/modules/2.4.20-18.1.caps/kernel/sound/snd-hdsp.o: insmod snd-hdsp failed [FAILED] Starting sequencer [ OK ] Restoring sound driver settings /usr/sbin/alsactl: load_state:1121: No soundcards found... [FAILED] After that an lsmod shows no snd-hdsp. Any idea what could cause this or how to go about solving it? Thanks, Matt Barber

[linux-audio-user] HDSP Firmware?

by BrbrOfSvl＠aol.com

Hi, I just put together a linux box and I'm going to be using the RME Hammerfall DSP w/ the Multiface. When I do lspci I get: 01:09.0 Multimedia audio controller: Xilinx Corporation RME Hammerfall DSP (rev 32) I'm kinda confused because I thought the rev should have been either 0a or 0b (or maybe 10 or 11). On my windows side I ran the firmware updater from the RME website, and I get "hardware revision 50" with a tag that says I don't need to update. Is this normal? I don't know if this makes a difference, but I'm currently running RedHat 9 with the kernel from Planet CCRMA (the .caps one rather than the .acpi, which won't work on my hardware for whatever reason). Slowly but surely I'm gonna get this thing running on Linux. Any other hints anybody's dying to share? I'm sure I've missed a ton of conversation about the HDSP in the past... I'll be going through those later. =o) Thanks, Matt Barber
