[linux-audio-user] Re: Problems with Novation Speedio

by Peter Clarke

>From Clemens and Lee: > aplay -Dplughw:1,0 somefile.wav. OK, that produces output from the Speedio, but - guess what - still garbled, just like before (too slow, too low pitch, crackly). Peter C

[linux-audio-user] vkeybd and qsynth

by Sean Edwards

I have a soundfont loaded in qsynth. QSynth lists channels, programs, and banks. For instance, FM Bells is Channel 1, Program 0 and Bank 0. The drum sounds are similar, Channel 1, Program 0, and Bank 128. Does anybody know how to connect vkeybd (Virtual Keyboard) to qsynth bank 128? Thank you for any insight. __________________________________ Yahoo! FareChase: Search multiple travel sites in one click. http://farechase.yahoo.com

[linux-audio-user] Re: Problems with Novation Speedio

by Peter Clarke

> Does "aplay something.wav" work? > > What are the contents of /proc/asound/cardX/stream0? Thanks for the suggestions so far. I haven't been able to figure out how to play through the Speedio without running Jack. Running in XMMS (the GUI part), I can select the ALSA driver as the output plugin, then select "Speedio: USB Audio (hw:1,0)" for output. But when I hit play, I get an error: "Failed to open audio output". In fact, I get this error with any ALSA output choice except "default PCM output" (which plays fine through my regular soundcard). I turned next to aplay. This is the output of aplay -l: **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** card 0: CMI8738MC6 [C-Media PCI CMI8738-MC6], device 0: CMI8738-MC6 [C-Media PCI DAC/ADC] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 0: CMI8738MC6 [C-Media PCI CMI8738-MC6], device 1: CMI8738-MC6 [C-Media PCI 2nd DAC] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 0: CMI8738MC6 [C-Media PCI CMI8738-MC6], device 2: CMI8738-MC6 [C-Media PCI IEC958] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 1: Speedio [Speedio], device 0: USB Audio [USB Audio] Subdevices: 0/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 If I run aplay somefile.wav, with no other parameters, it plays fine through the regular soundcard. But if I try aplay -Dhw:1,0 somefile.wav, I get an error: "Sample format non [sic] available". I tried -f cd and all available 24 bit formats with the -f switch (since Jack thinks the Speedio is a 24 bit device) but none worked. The output of /proc/asound/card1/stream0 is: Novation EMS Speedio at usb-0000:00:03.1-2, full speed : USB Audio Playback: Status: Stop Interface 1 Altset 1 Format: S24_3LE Channels: 2 Endpoint: 1 OUT (ADAPTIVE) Rates: 44100, 48000 Capture: Status: Stop Interface 2 Altset 1 Format: S24_3LE Channels: 2 Endpoint: 2 IN (SYNC) Rates: 44100, 48000 I guess that's telling me the correct format to use with aplay is S24_3LE, so I tried this again. It gave me the message "Warning: format is changed to S16_LE" and then, as before, "Sample format non available". Sorry if these are elementary misunderstandings on my part - this is all a bit new to me. Any more ideas of things to try? Regards, Peter C

[linux-audio-user] More guitars

by james＠dis-dot-dat.net

Hello again, peeps. Well, still the same number of guitars, really (that is, one of them), but more music made with it. http://blog.dis-dot-dat.net/2005/11/more-music-more-guitar-less-giggles.html Comments are welcome. Don't hold back - I'm not easily offended. James -- "I'd crawl over an acre of 'Visual This++' and 'Integrated Development That' to get to gcc, Emacs, and gdb. Thank you."

I think this article could be interesting for some Linux Audio User. At OpenJay.org there was a poll about "Best soundcard for DJing with Linux". Here the results: http://www.openjay.org/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=88 If something is strange or you dislike it.. post your comments there! Cheers, -- Gianluca Romanin (aka J_Zar)

[linux-audio-user] How to turn 5.1 on ALC655?

by ejdem

Hi there. I have a little problem with my soundcard. It's onboard Realtek ALC655 AC97 codec Chip on Gigabyte GA-7VT600 1394 (more infos on http://www.gigabyte.pl/MotherBoard/Products/Products_Spec_GA-7VT600% 201394.htm) and I'm using Mandrakelinux 10.1 (Official) with kernel 2.6.12.3, KDE 3.4.1 (with arts) and ALSA 1.0.10 + Soundblaster 1024 Player (aka SB Live! Value [CT4832]) and I have two questions: 1). how to turn on 5.1 surround sound system in ALC655 ? I've found one site about it (http://alsa.opensrc.org/Alsa) and I've tried to do this... but it doesn't work. 2). and how to (is it possible anyway?) to use both sndcards simultaneously as one card? I want to use ALC655 as a 5.1 sndcard and my SB as 4 speakers (2 speakers + headphones) and mic-in. I know it sounds crazy, but if someone can help me I'll be grateful :) Thanks, I hope someone can help me :)
