[linux-audio-user] MAudio Delta 1010LT

by Mike Jewell

Hi LAU, This is my first posting here. Hope to do lots more... I have a M-Audio Delta 1010LT multitrack sound card in my computer and am having lots of trouble with it. I'm running Linux 2.4 (Fedora Core 1) with the "Planet CCRMA" audio environment on a Pentium 4 PC. I use Audacity 1.2.3 for recording, etc. Everything worked fine with the built-in (stereo) sound on my motherboard. I installed the 1010LT and rebooted. The computer found the card and seemed to be happy with it. But many things seem to be wrong. I'm using envy24control to get the mixer, patchbay, sliders, etc. My main (first) question is how to get more than 2 channels recording at the same time? When I pick 4 channels in Audacity, it does indeed record 4 tracks but the second two are copies of the first 2. The little drop-down menu in Audacity for selecting the source (line-in, mic, etc) is empty and the input and output sliders seem to have no effect. Any helpful tips or pointers would sure be appreciated. I'm very new to Linux so you might need to t-a-l-k r--e--a--l s--l--o--w--l--y 8^) Thanks in advance, Mike Jewell

[linux-audio-user] WIKI CALL

by MarC

Hi, Randy Kramer and me started setting up a wiki to collect user experiences with soundcards in linux this december. I have finished a first draft with instructions about how to add a new soundcard. LAU: I have seen many posts asking for soundcard advice and explaining features and support for many cards. It would be nice to collect this knowledge at the wiki... The main page is: http://twiki.org/cgi-bin/view/Wikilearn/LA_SoundCards Here there is the page for my audigy card: http://twiki.org/cgi-bin/view/Wikilearn/LA_SC_Creative_SBAudigyOEM There is a template to create a new entry at: http://twiki.org/cgi-bin/view/Wikilearn/LA_SC_Template It is not intended to replace any of the classic great pages of documentation but to link them, add/change these links dynamically, and allow visitors to add up-to-date comments. Hope it can be useful... I think it's not difficult that we add each of us our card in order to have a good knowledge of the used cards under linux. Any contributions out there? Feel free to add links to this page ;) Finally, if you consider that something(or a lot of things) can be improved, feel free to email me. Yours MarC

[linux-audio-user] the best playback/DAC card

by Andrew Gaydenko

Hi! Will be glad to get your opinions about choosing an audio card below $250. The main (and, probably, the only) planned using is a playing back of stereo files. Probably, a DAC quality is the main feature here. Thanks! Andrew

[linux-audio-user] Job opening

by Eric Dantan Rzewnicki

Attached is a pdf containing the job announcement for Director of Technical Support at Radio Free Asia. We use Linux and Free Software for most of our network information systems and also for a number of middleware applications that glue together our various proprietary audio systems. We also have users beginning to test Audacity as a replacement for Cool Edit. In the future I see a place for Ardour as a replacement for our 30+ aging Orban Audicy(tm) DAWs, Audacity as a replacement for Cool Edit, icecast/ogg-vorbis/ecasound to replace our hardware mp3 encoders for streaming and archiving and perhaps other uses of linux audio software as well. Address any replies to jobs(a)rfa.org Thanks, -- Eric Dantan Rzewnicki | Systems Engineer I Technical Operations Division | Radio Free Asia 2025 M Street, NW | Washington, DC 20036 | 202-530-4900 CONFIDENTIAL COMMUNICATION This e-mail message is intended only for the use of the addressee and may contain information that is privileged and confidential.

[linux-audio-user] aeolus?

by Julien Claassen

Hi all (especially Fons!)! I've just successfully compiled and installed aeolus (lastest release). I can start the program connect it to jack and alsa midi seqeuncer, but there it stops. I asked a seeing companion of mine to have a look at the ui, but even after pressing several buttons, there was no sound. Now my questions: 1. Is this a bug or just me and my friend being to stupid? 2. Are there shortcuts/hotkeys, so I can use the organ myself without help? 3. Are there maybe other ways to use it vai "remote control" (OSC, etc.)? I'm greatful for any good suggestions and hints! Kindest regards Julien P.S.: I read the installation instruction and directory/configuration hints very carefully, it shouldn't be that... :-) -------- Music was my first love and it will be my last (John Miles) ======== FIND MY WEB-PROJECT AT: ======== http://ltsb.sourceforge.net - the Linux TextBased Studio guide

[linux-audio-user] problem with jack_fst + qjackctl

by Dave Phillips

Greetings: When I use jack_fst with the Crystal synth it works fine, but when I close the plugin qjackctl closes too. Its settings remain in effect, but the GUI vanishes. If anyone else has this problem, please let me know if you've found a fix for it. It's annoying to have to reopen qjackctl each time I use jack_fst. jack_fst 1.2, qjackctl 0.2.14 Best, dp

[linux-audio-user] Re: Decent reverb, and DSP in hardware?

by davidrclark＠earthlink.net

Recently Wolfgang posted some comments about listening under the best conditions. Yes, it's true that there is literally no hope of emulating a very large space in a typical living room, regardless of technology if one uses speakers, without obnoxious consequences. This is a simple acoustical fact. There are too many aborbers; the space is too small, etc. So what are we to do? The solution for creating large acoustical spaces used by the automotive audio industry is to vibrate the neighborhood. This is why you hear bass when cars drive by. If you didn't hear it, neither would the occupants in the car. In order for them to hear it, you have to. That's not a good solution, is it? But I think everyone would have to admit that this is an obvious solution to creating large acoustical spaces in the interior of an automobile. It's a very straightforward application of what Wolfgang talked about. Other people have addressed the travel problem. Not many of us can afford to travel to a beautiful acoustical space every time we want to hear music. So while what Wolfgang says is true, it's not helpful --- or at least I don't see how it is. In other words, I agree completely, BUT... My own contribution is to attempt to create generators for impulse response functions that users can calculate to emulate whatever acoustical space they want. These generators are currently quite primitive in that they don't treat all boundary conditions and so on. However, I have found them to be an improvement for my own listening, which is preferably with headphones. With this technique, I hear music that is closest to ideal that I've ever heard short of going to a concert hall or cathedral. I cannot myself generate examples to show every genre in every venue, but the principles should apply equally well. Simply offered as another suggested, approximate solution to an impossible situation: Engineered IR's for convolution and for headphone listening. It's not for everyone, maybe not even most people. But I sure like it.
