[linux-audio-user] M-Audio Omnistudio USB: multiple problems

by Rusty Phillips

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?

[linux-audio-user] guitar song sheets

by Rusty Phillips

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. http://freshmeat.net/projects/chorddb/ 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.

Re: [OT] taiko - was: [linux-audio-user] how 'bout more music

by bernie arai

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... bernie arai > Date: Thu, 30 Dec 2004 11:01:35 -0800 > From: Robert Persson <ireneshusband(a)yahoo.co.uk> > Subject: Re: [linux-audio-user] how 'bout more music > To: A list for linux audio users <linux-audio-user(a)music.columbia.edu> > Message-ID: <200412301101.35747.ireneshusband(a)yahoo.co.uk> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" > > > >What's a "goto drummer"? > > > > I think he might mean a Japanese taiko drummer, they play those huge > > cylinder drums. > > Bang on!

[linux-audio-user] [ANN] Ceres V0.41 and Snd-ls V0.9.1.5

by Kjetil Svalastog Matheussen

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. http://www.notam02.no/arkiv/src/ 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. http://www.notam02.no/arkiv/src/snd/ --

[linux-audio-user] Christmasmusic recorded with linux

by Arnold Krille

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. -- Douglas Adams, The Restaurant at the End of the Universe

[linux-audio-user] guitar song sheets

by Reuben Martin

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. -reuben

[linux-audio-user] Bringin the New Year with another song

by R Parker

This song is dedicated to those of you who spent New Years in a bar which is what Duane Holsbeck and I did. http://www.iaxs.net/~rparker/liquor_lyles.ogg 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. ron __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

[linux-audio-user] Audio file verification

by mchristoph.eckert＠t-online.de

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
