[linux-audio-user] Finale+WIne problem solved (sort of)

by Mikhail Ramendik

Hello, I have managed to start Finale 2002 under Wine with all icons displayed correctly. WARNING: I have not yet used it extensively, so I'm not sure if it is stable! (And I still have no MIDI input/output, but then I have not really tried...) To get it to work, I took the following files: commdlg.* comdlg32.* commctl.* comctl32.* from a Windows 98 (first edition) machine where Finale 2002 was already installed (and works fine). I copied them into the \windows\system\ directory in wine's fake Windows drive. I put the following in wine's config: in the [Version] section "Windows" = "win98" in the [DllOverrides] section: "commdlg" = "native" "comdlg32" = "native" "commctl" = "native" "comctl32" = "native" And, this works. I would send the Win98 files to anyone interested, except that I'm afraid there may be licensing issues (as these are a part of win98). So your safest bet is to get to a win98 box, install Finale (this is important -- apparently it updates at least COMCTL32), and then move these files onto the Linux box. I'm *not* sure it will work with files from Windows NT/2000/XP. AND: you need wine 20031212. I'm not sure about later versions (could try, perhaps - but "if it ain't broke don't fix it", so unless something is not working correctly, I won't try anytime soon). But 200308-something simply does not work (font stuff breaks). I will duplicate this on Frank's corner forums, and after some testing, submit this to the Wine HQ and Frank's Corner for inclusion in FAQs. Yours, Mikhail Ramendik

[linux-audio-user] FINALE -

by Mark Knecht

Hi, Someone here was asking about fonts in Finale recently. FYI - There is a note on the Wine-Users list this morning from someone who says they have Finale displaying notes correctly under Wine, but are getting black icons in the app itself. Maybe the two fo you can link up and get things working better for both of you. Look at the bottom of this page: http://www.winehq.org/hypermail/wine-users/2004/03/index.html Mark

[linux-audio-user] FINALE 2000 - WINE ???

by robcanning

hi sorry if this is slightly off-topic but to convert fully to linux audio i need to be able to use notation - i've seen some of the open source notation packages and none of them are up to the level of Finale yet. i'm trying out finale 2000 on the WINE emulator for Linux on Redhat9. I have put a copy of the maestro.ttf font into an X11 directory and pointed my .wine/config file to that directory so now i have the font showing up in finale. My problem is all the little buttons in the simple entry panel are black instead of showing up note/duration symbols - most of the other buttons in the other entry panels are showing up ok. any linux/wine/finale users out there??? are the symbols on these buttons connected to maestro.ttf? - reports of any experiences with using finale within WINE would be greatly appreciated especially with regards to getting the midi .dll side of things up and running. thanks, rob canning -- robcanning <rscanning(a)eircom.net> www.robcanning.utvinternet.com

[linux-audio-user] Event Electronics reply to my letter re: driver for EZBus

by Kent, Gary

Hi all: I recvd. permission from Event Electronics to forward this reply shown below that they gave to me re: Linux drivers for their USB Audio Interface/Controller/Mixer. For anyone else considering writing a manufacturer I thought that I would mention how appreciative they were when asked for permission first before forwarding their replies to this list. I thought it was pretty good news. Ok, take care, gk Subject: RE: question about mac os10 and Linux Hello Gary and greetings from Event, Thank you for owning an EZbus digital mixer. I'm glad you have had a good experience with Event and your EZbus. I am a Mac guy myself, and wish that complete drivers were coded for the Mac platform, but unfortunately they were not ported to Mac. There are third party Linux drivers that are being worked on right now for both the EZ8 and EZbus. I do believe they will be submitted to the ALSA project, but I can not be sure. As the EZbus gets older, I am more and more strongly petitioning for source code release of the drivers to the ALSA project. I'm getting closer by the day. Thank you for the support, and hopefully good things will come out of this. Take care and let me know if you have any further questions, comments or concerns. Josh Dugan Event Electronics, LLC.

[linux-audio-user] fluidsynth - high priority scheduling MIDI input

by luciorgomes

Hi Everytime that I start fluidsynth as a normal user, console mode or under Qsynth, I get the message "fluidsynth: warning: Couldn't set high priority scheduling for the MIDI input". This causes for me severe note dropout when I play MIDI files with lots of tracks. Otherwise, if I start it as root there's no warning message and everything plays fine. Is it possible to make fluidsynth get the "high priority scheduling" for a non root user? Thanks Lucio --- Acabe com aquelas janelinhas que pulam na sua tela.

[linux-audio-user] how to make usb audio sit nicely with jack? solved...thanks Patrick

by Kent, Gary

Hi: Just posting this for anyone who might be experiencing problems with a similar setup. I was able to make my USB Event EZbus (2-channel) work great with my Planet CCRMA setup. But only after setting the period size to 2048 at 48000. I was always able to record via the 2 channels, but other apps which depended on jack would crackle very badly. Setting this period size to 2048 did the trick. Ok, thanks for the help, gk
