well, i was hoping i wouldn't have to learn C to do this, but I suppose
I can't expect ot not get my hands dirty with this, can I ;-)

maybe this is a question for alsa, but if you don't mind i rather put my
problem here as well. i'm in continious trouble with my sound card. i
spent a lot of money on this rme digi96-8/pad. when i bought the card it
immediately worked like a charm with mdk 9.2. unbelievable. the trouble
started with mdk 10.0. i managed to make it work after several days of
searching. don't ask me how, i woke up, booted and to my surprise it
worked. never change a winning configuration you would say. indeed.
today i reenabled the onboard audio chip in the bios, booted windows,
booted back linux and yes trouble happened. just like the first time of
troubles, everything seems to be working fine and configured as it
should be, but i hear *no* sound at all. it's driving me insane. i mean,
i run xmms, mplayer, aplay.. they all do seem to play sound without any
error, only i can't hear anything at all. but alsamixer displays a 100%
volume output (with this card there is only 1 mixer, DAC) and when i
boot windows i hear sound, so it's not a cable prob. am i missing here
anything obvious? is there another volume mixer that i should try? i
remember playing with a console program to set mixer volumes, but can't
remember which one.
please help.

There is a realtime-lsm module that is simply applied by a startup script.
Jackd works realtime with this applied. It is applied with a gjd=29 which is
for the audio group.
ANyone know of a complete soundfont set in the GS format that can be
loaded into Qsynth or fluid synth? By complete, I mean all 128 standard
instruments plus preferably the GS or even XG instruments.
Thanks

Greetings Earthlings:
Just a quick note to say that the August 2004 issue of the Linux
Journal has selected Ardour as Project Of The Year for its 2004 Editors
Choice awards. Congratulations to Paul and everyone on the team !
Best regards,

Andrew Morton has asked for testers to submit data regarding xruns while
using the 2.6.6preempt kernel.
Here's the details:
-------
What we need to do is to encourage audio testers to use ALSA drivers, to
enable CONFIG_SND_DEBUG in the kernel build and to set
/proc/asound/*/*/xrun_debug and to send us the traces which result from
underruns.
You'll have the best chance of getting decent traces with
CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER=y and CONFIG_4KSTACKS=n, but I'm not sure that this
will help a lot.
Make sure that CONFIG_PREEMPT is enabled.

Apparently upon the beginning of the barrage, the donkey broke
discipline and panicked, toppling the cart. At that point, the rockets
disconnected from the timer, leaving them strewn around the street.
Tethered to the now toppled cart, the donkey was unable to escape before
the arrival of U.S. troops.

I like suse 9.2 myself, but I install for free over ftp, and then grab all
of the development libraries so its easy to recompile from source when I
need to.
The other distro I like is demudi, but suse 9.2 comes with the 2.6 kernel,
so my usb stuff works better than with the 2.4 kernel, and I don't have to
recompile my kernel to have decent latency performance.
Hi gang.
I have a Delta 1010LT and I want to run and external sequencer thru the
midi in port to run a soft synth like Fluid with a GM or GS font set.
I use this midi in port already for an external controller that controls
mixer items in Ardour. When Ardour is open, I don't seem to be able to
connect the Qsynth port to the Delta midi in port. Is this normal?
If so, is there somekind of virtual splitter out there. Winblows has
several(Don't know what all of its capabilities were)...one virtual midi
input and 2,3,4 or more separate midi outs for running different gear.
And then could I run 16 channels of sequenced midi data into the linux
box to softsynth and still run Ardour separately using the same midi in
port to control the surfaces in Ardour.
thanks

http://www.w3.org/AudioVideo/ I'm fine with smil... I think it's more appropriate to what I do. XML is probably just as good...
I really didn't mean to diss traditional notation above. I have all the respect in the world for it. I do think we need file formats and notation types that are better suited to computer music and to newer techniques...

Hi
Can I just at this point whole heartedly recommend debian - certainly the so
called unstable branch. I must admit that messing with lowlat and preemptive
patch has been messy. However after reading the last few days of debate about
the problems with the 2.6 kernel. I decided to try debian stock 2.6.7 and i
must admit that it seems to work as good -but probably better than the
2.4ll+pre. This is of course using the LD_ASSUME stuff.
One point though if somebody knows how to set global environment variables
that work within the point and click environment within kde (.profile doesnt
seem to work) I certainly would like to know.
