I still like his Spirit stuff the best...12 Dreams, etc. What the hell is he doing working for the Man, anyway? ----- Original Message ----- From: hanaghan(a)starband.net To: linux-audio-user(a)music.columbia.edu Subject: Re: [linux-audio-user] [OT] Steely Dan Date: Tue, 11 Jan 2005 23:58:46 -0500 (EST) > > > On Tue, 2005-01-11 at 01:06, Lee Revell wrote: > >> OK, with all the 'common linux audio layer' stuff, this list is > >> getting dry... > >> > >> I advise everyone to listen to 'Countdown to Ecstasy' ASAP.

[linux-audio-user] What is the best choice for a pro PCI soundcard?

by Mario Lang

Hi. I am in the process of working out the hardware of my new personal workstation. This time, I'd like to get a really good multichannel Pro-audio card with at least 96khz sampling rate, 24bit and around 8 analog channels. I am looking at: * TerraTec PHASE 88 * M-Audio Delta 1010(LT) I can't quite decide between the TerraTec and M-Audio. Regarding maturity of Linux ALSA drivers for these cards, what would you suggest? Additionally, I couldn't find anything which explained why the LT version is soo much cheaper. Is this only about bundled software, or does the 1010lt version have less hardware features than the Delta 1010? Any other cards I might have missed which would fall into the same category? What would you suggest? -- CYa, Mario

[linux-audio-user] Realtime Audio on SuSE Linux Pro 9.2 HOWTO

by Dan Harper

Hi, I've just finished writing up a HOWTO on setting up realtime audio on SuSE Linux Pro 9.2. You can get it here: http://danharper.org/linuxdesktopblog/ After previously using Planet CCRMA under Redhat, all I can say is Fernando, you are a huge blessing to us Linux Audio users, but SuSE is too good to pass up!

[linux-audio-user] Re: Audio interface recommendations

I would guess most music recording > interfaces do this. I realized why they do this. With variable sampling frequencies, 44.1, 48, 96, you would need different filters to get the best out of each one. So they just do 20 once and throw away the extra bandwidth. So does that mean they will alias at sampling rates like 11025? This could be tested, too.

[linux-audio-user] command-line program to record from the Delta 1010?

by Simon Werner

Hello, I have set up the MAudio Delta 1010 on Linux, everything seems to work fine including recording and playback. All we want to do is record a single channel at a specified time at the highest quality (24-bit, 96 kHz). I can write a cron script which will automate the record time. We do not use the Delta 1010 for output, only input, so programs which play files is of no use to us. In our case, what is the best command-line program to record from the Delta 1010? Cheers, Simon

[linux-audio-user] Suse Live cd and some thoughts

by Ketil Thorgersen

Hi group. I have been having a longish break from the audio-part of computing because of both professional and private reasons, but I'm back in the field sort of. The Linux -DAW scene really has gone through a tremendous development! Congrats everyone! Now enough about that: Earlier on I have "always" used Mandrake (lst years at least) and because of THAC this was a piece of cake - even though it was heavily digested at times. When I bought a laptop this autumn I never managed to get Mandrake to recognize neither the wireless network nor the acpi functions so I actually ran windows xp along with mandrake for a while - mostly doing office stuff. Then the suse live audio cd came along and I decided to give it a try, and it recognized every piece of hardware I had. I became so happy that I copied a suse 9.2 distribution to see if this would provide the solution to my needs. And it sort of does... It recognizes my hardware, but what happened to the tight integration of the sound programs and what about realtime kernels? I cannot understand why Suse/Novell hs put any effort into creating that live-cd if it represents nothing they actually sell? And how come they do not provide precompiled kernels for anything than servers if they have any intention of attracting new user groups? I really would have loved to have the simple and good sound app support that the mandrake community provides combined with the exellent hardware recognition Suse provides. But I guess that's too much to ask? Or does someone have a good tip? Best regards Ketil Thorgersen

[linux-audio-user] chaintech AV-710

by Michal Seta

Does any have any experience with this card: http://www.chaintechusa.com/tw/eng/product_spec.asp?PISNo=199 I theory the chip should be supported by the snd-ice17.whatever driver but I was wondering if anyone actually has had any success. thanks ./MiS

[linux-audio-user] [admin] commercial advertising on linux-audio-announce

by Joern Nettingsmeier

hi everyone! i have just accepted a commercial advertisement on linux-audio-announce, because i considered it perfectly on topic and relevant to the linux audio community. however, some of you may disagree. to let everyone decide for themselves, i'm asking advertisers to include the string [adv] or [ADV] in their subject so that subscribers who do not wish to see commercial ads can easily filter them out. feedback to my private address if possible, i'll summarize to the list. regards, jörn

[linux-audio-user] [OT] Steely Dan

by Lee Revell

OK, with all the 'common linux audio layer' stuff, this list is getting dry... I advise everyone to listen to 'Countdown to Ecstasy' ASAP. I hadn't heard it in a while, and after doing so I have to say it's guaranteed to blow your freaking mind. It's one of the all time guitar records, Jeff Baxter and Denny Dias, holy shit. And the production, there are so many brilliant subtle things going on... wow. It's an inspiration to us all. Lee
