[linux-audio-user] AlmusVCU and equalisation filter loading

by Michele Spinolo

Hi guys, is someone here using AlmusVCU? I'm experimenting some problem with "Load custom equalisation filter" function: basicly the software does not show .tar archives I want to load. Is anyone using correctly this function? Thanks! Michele

[linux-audio-user] Strict Red Book

by Reuben Martin

I'm trying to burn some audio CD's and I always run into the problem that there are some CD players that just don't want to play the CDs that come out of my burner. I'm burning them in raw on a Plextor drive, so it _shouldn't_ be having problems. Apparently the CD's are not strictly compliant with Red Book specs though. (from the documentation CDrecord uses CD-DA rather than Red Book, I'm not quite sure what the differences are) This is quite annoying when I give people a CD and it turns out their palyer can't handle it. (Once there was even a CD-ROM drive that wouldn't play it!) Does anybody know of any solutions for this? -Reuben

[linux-audio-user] straw in the drum song

by R Parker

Hi, Here's another song from the same group. The drummer is Tony Olson, a talented death metalist. The percussion is Lico De Santos, a Brazilian samba player and other styles too. The piano is P.J. Tracy who in addition to being a great musician is an excellent visual artist and legally blind. I'm pretty sure P.J. would benefit greatly from an ass kickin. Thursday I'm gonna listen to the other music that's been posted. BTW, the jazz song I posted is remixed. I tried to bear in mind the feedback recieved and I think the mix is sounding pretty darned good. The mixes are being sent to L.A. tomorrow. They were requested by someone so maybe something good will happen. http://www.iaxs.net/~rparker/hypocrisy.ogg ron __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

by airplays55＠yahoo.com

Running knoppix liveCD (or poor mans install) onto old gateway solo laptop (Pentium 166), my pcmcia network card is not recognized (netgear FA410TX). Where can I go from here? I hope there is a way to get it recognized without installing to HD. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail - now with 250MB free storage.

[linux-audio-user] still more linux music

by Nathaniel Virgo

This is a link to my latest track. It's a sort of a microtonal IDM thing. http://www12.redstation.co.uk/omni916254/michael/escape-from-the-head-cube-… I used ardour, csound, jamin, hydrogen, SpiralSynthModular, plenty of LADSPA plugins and to a lesser extent psindustrialiser, festival and mammut.

Red Book is DOA. >From cdrecord's man page: "-audio If this flag is present, all subsequent tracks are written in CD-DA (similar to Red Book) audio format." I would take that to imply that there are some differences. You can also write in RAW mode, which tends to be more accurate than DAO mode. When I use DAO mode the subchannel data is offset by 2 seconds. I usually burn audio CDs in RAW96r mode. More from the cdrecord man file: "-raw96r Select Set RAW writing mode with 2352 byte sectors plus 96 bytes of raw P-W subchannel data resulting in a sector size of 2448 bytes. This is the preferred raw writing mode as it gives best control over the CD writing process. If you find any problems with the layout of a disk or with sub channel content (e.g. wrong times on the display when playing the CD) and your drive supports to write in -raw96r or -raw16 mode, you should give it a try. There are several CD writers with bad firmware that result in broken disks when writing in TAO or SAO mode." >> This is quite annoying when I give people a CD and >> it turns out their palyer can't handle it.

[linux-audio-user] Innovations

I'm sure the innovation is older than both of these products. (When SD appeared? Prior 1996?) Just be happy that the innovation is not patented and that finally somebody wrote convenient open source product.
