I'm having a lot of trouble getting this to work the way it should.
The only thing I've gotten so far is recording and playback on two
channels.
So far I've looked at the various examples of asoundrc files I've found
on the net and tried the patch given on this mailing list for that
purpose.
Neither of these things have produced results.
Has anyone had any experience getting this to work with alsa and jack?
Do you have any data about what you did that I could make use of?
I was unsatisfied with GuitarTex myself, and actually wrote an app for
this. I don't know if it'll suit his needs or not because it's still a
beta, and only I have tested it.
But if he'd like to give it a shot, I could use the feedback.

It's designed for making sets of songs, mostly. Chords are detected
automatically if entered from crd (standard fake sheets), and converted
otherwise. I personally think the front-end is very intuitive, but I
did write it...
Anyway, it uses a latex style to create pdf files (or you can just make
plaintext, chordpro, or latex files).
I've stopped development on this version mostly to switch over to SOAP
or XML-RPC and a java front-end (so that some form of markup is
possible); I've pretty much reached the limit of javascript's
capabilites.
Hi all,
just a short reminder: The deadline for paper, music etc. submission for the
3rd Linux Audio Conference (LAC, April 21st-24, 2005) is coming closer -
if you plan to hand in a paper, project note, composition, workshop topic
etc, be sure to send it off until
January 10th, 2005
Believe it or not, we have a tight time plan for the remaining time til
the conference, and we need that time for preparations - so we are not going
to accept material that gets sent in too late!
For more information, please see the web page at http://www.zkm.de/lac
Thanks,
The LAC05 organization team:
Goetz Dipper (ZKM)
Matthias Nagorni
Frank Neumann
PS: And please do not confuse this with the "LCA" that Conrad Parker is
organizing, also in April, however not in Germany, but on the other side
of the globe! :-)
after a few months of lurking on this list i finally feel like i have
something to contribute, albeit horribly off topic. the name of the
japanese taiko drumming group is Kodo, not goto (although i like the C
joke). they do in fact come from sado island, famous as a hideout for
artists, exiles and recluses, where the group all live in a house
together and train new members. all the while, they have been playing
one continuous world tour for about 12 years now called the "one earth
tour" (coming back to my town next month). they were not formed with
any (organized) religious connections, but were actually an offshoot of
another taiko group called ondekoza.
before i spent all my time getting a linux audio workstation to work, i
used to perform in a taiko group here in vancouver called the uzume
taiko ensemble, which is where i learned about kodo and their kin. it's
a real workout...

CERES
*****
"Ceres is a simple program for displaying sonograms and for sound effects
in the frequency domain."
Except that its not that simple anymore...
0.40 -> 0.41
-------------
-Fixed a (horrible) bug that caused ceres to crash on newer linux
distributions.
-Simplified the install process a lot. pygtk1, libglade and sndlib
is now included in the distribution and is/can be installed
automatically if needed.
-Connect to jack-server right after starting up ceres, not right
before playing for the first time.

SND-LS
******
Snd-ls is a distribution of the sound editor Snd. Its target is
people that don't know scheme very well, and don't want
to spend too much time configuring Snd. It can also serve
as a quick introduction to Snd and how it can be set up.
0.9.1.2 -> 0.9.1.5:
-------------------
-Made the apply-button always apply to selection if there is a selection.
-Removed some options from the edit-menu that interfered with the way
snd_conffile works.
-Made the insert-option in the edit-menu insert monofiles into the
currently selected channel.
-Added libxt-dev to the list of required packages. (Thanks to robin)
-Made mono-files play in both left and right channel when using Jack.
-Short fix for the nodeline-class.

Hi folks,
a happy new year to all of you!
After all I decided to share some of my first experiences with linux-recording
with you. I did some (simple) recordings in our church on last years
christmas-eve. You can find 7 songs here:
http://roederberg.dyndns.org/~arnold/sound_xmas04.php
I would like to hear some comments since I am a newbie in mastering altough I
have > 5years of experience in live-mixing...
Thanks,
Arnold
PS: The recording-device used is my new Tascam US-122. ;-)

There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the
Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be
replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable.
There is another theory which states that this has already happened.

I've seen several good music notation or type setting programs, but does anybody here know of a program to use for printing out song lyrics with guitar chords? The only thing I've seen is GuitarTex. (Perhaps one of the lilypond apps like Denemo supports this and I just don't know it?)
Specifically, I need this for my brother. He always needs to give music to people playing with him. However he often plays his guitar with a kapo, which of course always makes this a mess for bass players. I need software that can be told to shift everything up by X number of half steps and automatically update all the chords. I've seen software that can adjust music when the key is changed, but is there anything that can do this for guitar chord notation?
GUI interface is perfered. My little brother is not the type to spend much time learning notation syntax.

This song is dedicated to those of you who spent New
Years in a bar which is what Duane Holsbeck and I did.

We took the Linux multitrack recording van out for its
maiden voyage. Duane and his partner Nip have been
running live sound in the Minneapolis area about the
same amount of time that my partners and I have been
running the studio. It was about a year ago when we
first talked about running a remote van. It was a
great experience. Cheers to a great 2005 with Linux
Audio.

Hi,
does anyone know a program which can verify the integrity of
audio - especially wav - files?
I have a recorded file and I was told that the file contained
8148 Bytes of trash data at the end.
Somehow I'd like to check if this is true, and if so, I'd like
to do some checks to know what's the reason for the damaged
file.
Best regards
ce
