->i might (with emphasis on the conditional) get some external funding for buying an 8-channel audio system for our school of music. i need some recommendations on: 1) the best audio card (with linux support, of course) we could get in the us$ 800-1200 price range. 2) good active speakers in the us$1000-1500 price range each. (do some speakers work better than others when put together in an octophonic set? i have no idea) i'd really appreciate if someone could share experiences and … [View More]

[linux-audio-user] jack/alsa connection state

by Florian Schmidt

Hi, i'm looking for two simple shell scripts, but since my scripting wizardry is [very] limited, i ask for help here. 1] this one uses jack_lsp and aconnect to find out the current connection state and writes it into a file somewhat like this: ---snip [jack] SuperCollider:out_1 alsa_pcm:playback_1 SuperCollider:out_1 alsa_pcm:playback_2 SuperCollider:out_1 bridge-1183:meter_1 . . . . [alsa] seq24:out0 SuperCollider:in0 . . . 2] The other one rebuilds the connection state from this file [… [View More]

Re: [linux-audio-user] [ANN] Aqualung, a new music player for GNU/Linux

by Matt Barber

-> For listening to classical music, I would use a 2-second gap without fading because a short pause between movements is desirable.<- Unless of course it's opera... even in Mahler symphonies they sometimes split the movements into several tracks. Matt

[linux-audio-user] Multiple Cards

by Matt Barber

Just a conceptual alsa question: I've been reading about setting up multiple soundcards in modules.conf/modprobe.conf, but most of the guides I've seen talk about setting up two different cards -- what if you wanted to set up two identical cards (like two delta 1010s, or two hdsp/multiface), will the names of the cards (like snd-hdsp) be exactly the same, and will it thus be difficult to set something like this up: alias snd-card-0 snd-hdsp alias sound-slot-0 snd-hdsp alias snd-card-1 snd-… [View More]

[linux-audio-user] Yoper OS [was 100 tracks and something or other]

by Russell Hanaghan

I have been poking around the Yoper distro's website and joined the forum there as well. www.yoper.com I installed this distro after Malcolm's recommendation to check it out...it is slick, 1 cd only and FAST! It is fairly new and born out of New Zealand it seems. It is an rpm based system utilizing APT for package retreival. It's install was relatively straight forward on 2 of my boxes. They are running a tweaked 2.6.8 kernel that has some of Con Kolivas' patches incorporated. I ran … [View More]

[linux-audio-user] Advice for buying sound gear online

by Glenn McCord

Hi all. As a New Zealander, I'm not privilaged enough to get the prices on audio gear that the US citizens do. In fact an M-Audio Delta 1010LT (at the current exchange rate) is going to cost twice as much here than from the US. Ouch! Does anyone recommend a website for purchasing recording gear online. i.e had positive experiences, good price, service etc. I'm looking at getting a mixer and a Delta 1010LT however I noticed some sites such as http://www.zzounds.com/ don't ship internationally. Cheers, Glenn
