[linux-audio-user] AIFF files batch-slicing

by Christian Frisson

Hi, I need to automate a process for slicing audio files in AIFF format on multiple files everytime perfect silences are met (zero-amplitude). This should be multiplatform (Linux/Mac/Win) and minimal (no GUI, only command-lines: one should just have to launch the script / program). The handling of standard UNIX commands like changing and listing directories, moving or renaming files... is requested. I've thought of Octave or Scilab but I couldn't find their Mac version and the AIFF file-handling wasn't that great. Alternatively, I could write a shell script, but I think I'd still need a piece of software to understand the audio files and determine whether it's silent or not. Sox? At last, I could write my own C software, bearing in mind it may need customizing along the OS where it is compiled... Any idea? Cheers, Christian Frisson

[linux-audio-user] Delta 1010 Configuration

by David L. Craig

I'm looking at getting an M-Audio Delta 1010 for the music workstation I'm building and have a few questions about supporting hard/software requirements. Does the 1010 route all ten inputs discretely into the PCI interface such that there is no need for a hardware mixer to process the inputs? If so, what software provides the best alternative to an eight channel mixer? Are the outputs assignable or are they tied to their respective inputs? What other hardware do I need aside from input sources, cables, balanced to 1/4" TIP adapters, amplifier(s) and speakers to handle 8 channel recording/playback? -- May the LORD God bless you exceedingly abundantly!

[linux-audio-user] Creating live CDs

by lau＠hippie-online.de

Hello, I'd like to know if there is a tool to create live CDs under Linux. I recorded lots of live concerts from the radio or of my own bands with a DAT recorder. I use the M-Audio Audiophile 24/96, ALSA 1.0.3 and ecasound to copy the 48 kHz tapes onto my harddisk: ecasound -c -r -b 512 -f:16,2,48000 -i alsa,ice1712_spdif -o file.wav I use Audacity to amplify, normalize, cut and fade in/out. For downsampling I use sox: sox file.wav -r 44100 file44.wav polyphase (So far: Do you have better solutions concerning quality?) Now my problem is to burn the resulting file onto an Audio CD with track markers and CD-text. I am not aware of a Linux program to do this (and still have to dual boot for Feurio :-( ). Does anybody know a suitable tool? Ciao, HippiE

[linux-audio-user] Re: Getting around the limitations of a low-end card

by Mark Wilson

I guess what I'm really trying to accomplish is to sort of become the Isao Tomita or Wendy Carlos of my own linux box, just for my own amusement. I've used an older v. of timidity when I've booted into Libranet (OSS, not ALSA), and I used the timidity that came with Rehmudi 1.1.0, but for some reason the timidity on my Demudi 1.0 is broken -- can't find midia.cfg, which is supposed to be in the pkg but isn't there (I checked, too, using midnight commander) Anyway, that's not really the point. Once I can get it up & running to play the midi files generated from rosegarden, I'd like to figure out how to create my own *.pat files, or mess around with the ones included. Any help for a chronic newbie? Thanks, Mark Oh, and don't bother suggesting I download the new version of Demudi -- I don't have the bandwidth, so I'll have to wait 'til it shows up on Cheapbytes! ;-) ===== -- Seek professional help!

[linux-audio-user] Asus, Athalon XP and ICE1712 IRQ issues...

by Russell Hanaghan

Hi gang... Just bought a new box for DAW stuff.. Got MDK 10.0 all installed and updated...Got all the cool apps installed and working ok. The ASUS mobo is an A7V8X-MX SE with Athalon +2500. It runs an Award Pheonix Bios which is not as extensive on options as some of my other boxes... This mobo has only 3 PCI slots and 1 AGP. It's a mini form factor case and board. I have shuffled the card from slot to slot, stopped the kernel loading the USB modules (*I don't need 'em anyway), messed with all relevant BIOS settings (Assign IRQ's, APIC, etc) and I cannot get this card (Delta 1010LT)onto an Interrupt lower than 10. cat /proc/interrupts 0: 486023 XT-PIC timer 1: 1990 XT-PIC i8042 2: 0 XT-PIC cascade 8: 1 XT-PIC rtc 10: 0 XT-PIC ICE1712 11: 14687 XT-PIC eth0 12: 7242 XT-PIC i8042 14: 11595 XT-PIC ide0 NMI: 0 LOC: 486014 ERR: 546 MIS: 0 Any thoughts...I also tried the APIC options in LILO... Is it really necessary to even have it on a lower Interrupt...I mean are the benefits substantial or miniscul and not worthy of 20 hrs of boot / halt / boot, etc... Thanks in advance R~

[linux-audio-user] Fresh PC waiting for basic installation - Advice?

by Alejandro Lopez

Chaps, I'd like to set up a music-only PC to produce demos of my songs, by installing some simple system from the ground (OS) up. The PC I've made available for this is a 1 GHz AMD Athlon if that makes sense and I remember well. My preferred method is often to create a complete sequence of a song then gradually substitute MIDI instruments by audio tracks of recorded musicians. What would you go for if you wanted the functionalities listed below? (I would sacrifice some of the features for the sake of simplicity.) -Sequencer -Multitracker / sampler, the "loop" kind (reads waves from disk in real time, inserted at any points or measures of the song). -Soundfont enabled realtime synth -Basic effects for the multitracker: simple reverb + simple equalizer -Audio editor hopefully with advanced features such as quantizer (handy for drums) and note tuning (essential for 3 piece brass section!) + some basic such as compressor -Any low level stuff for the above from drivers to audio mixer What would you try if you were me? (Unseccessfully tried to install Planet CCRMA before, would give a second try if advisable as a simple solution.) I really really need to spend little time in getting it to work but I'd definitely like to go open + Linux. I'm sorry if this has been discussed previously, I just joined this list and had a quick search for related threads, anyway if this topic has been around I would appreciate a pointer to the relevant thread and please accept my apologies. Many thanks for any advice, any comments will be much appreciated. Yours, Alex PS: Yesterday I visited a Protools based studio (G4 Mac + 24 channel console + big rack with lotsa stuff), needless to say I was in heaven but that was a very different story altogether! _________________________________________________________________ Reparaciones, servicios a domicilio, empresas, profesionales...

[linux-audio-user] Getting around the limitations of a low-end card

by Mark Wilson

While googling info. about how to accomplish musical expression in MIDI, I digressed to the following link: www.midisound.com/techncl.htm Particularly the last section: "What if I don't own a sound card with "Wavetable" synthesis?" What would be the comparable alternative(s) under Linux? virmidi? TIA, Mark ===== -- Seek professional help! Ask a librarian. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

[linux-audio-user] Reading/playing a "copy protected" CD : Reed-Solomon correction?

by Mikhail Ramendik

Hello, I have purchased a CD that seems to be copy protected. When I play it, using XMMS and digital playback, it's rather noisy/clicky. I'd still like to play it, either directly, or by reading to disk first. As I understand, I need some software that would implement Reed-Solomon correction, as done in usual CD players. Is any such software available? Preferrably for Linux, of course. Yours, Mikhail Ramendik
