Hi,
Apologies for the crossposting, I won't make a habit of this.
We're organising a User-oriented Free Audio Visual Event to be held in
Bristol, UK on August 13th 2005. This is the first event of its kind, so
there's all to play for. If you would like to be involved, now would be a
really good time to get in touch. ;-)
The plan so far:

FAVE 2005
Open source creativity
Call for Presentations, Workshops and Artists
FAVE is a get-together for creative people who are interested in free
and open source software on Linux and other computer platforms. It's
taking place on Saturday August 13th 2005 at the Trinity Community &
Arts Centre in Bristol, UK. Everyone is welcome, especially if you've never
used this kind of software before.
This is no dry, dull conference! It will be an accessible festival of
fun with performances, installations and workshops. Topics will
include:
* Music production
* Sound recording
* Community radio and media
* Video art and VJ's
* 2D and 3D graphics
* Game design
* Creative Commons licensing
* Software in the Welsh language
There will also be an evening gig featuring performances from
artists who use Linux and free software. The Trinity Centre is a large
converted church, and a legendary music venue. It features a main
stage area, room for stalls, a cafe, bar and kids' corner.
If you would like to make a presentation, hold a workshop, or perform
at this event, please contact the organisers via this address:

Announcing blepvco 0.1.0:
http://home.jps.net/~musound/blepvco-0.1.0.tar.gz
blepvco is a LADSPA plugin library containing three anti-aliased,
minBLEP-based, hard-sync-capable oscillator plugins. The
oscillators are intended to be used with modular synthesis systems,
such as Alsa Modular Synth (a couple example AMS patches are
included). The three oscillators are:
Sync-Saw-VCO : Anti-aliased sawtooth oscillator with hard-sync
capability
Sync-Rect-VCO : Anti-aliased variable-width rectangle oscillator, with
sync
Sync-Tri-VCO : Anti-aliased variable-slope triangle oscillator, with
sync
Users of Fons Adriaensen's VCO-plugins will find these plugins
immediately familiar, since they borrow much of their interface code
from Fons' work -- indeed, if/when you do not need the hard-sync or
variable-slope triangle wave features of blepvco, his plugins may be
a better choice, because their CPU use is somewhat lower. Currently,
his VCO-plugins can be found at:
http://users.skynet.be/solaris/linuxaudio/
blepvco is written by Sean Bolton, and copyright (c)2005 under the
GNU General Public License, version 2 or later. Much thanks to Fons,
Daniel Werner, Tim Stilson and Julius Smith, and Eli Brandt.
Hi all,
More music!
This is actually a tune I have recorded and improved several times but I have
never posted it here.
It's basically a mellow pop tune with a very central main vocal and acoustic
guitar figures.
The song is here together with some more info:

Direct link to the ogg:

(No streaming yet, sorry)

On a related note. There's been several discussions here about creating a
separate list for musical announcements. The concensus so far seems to be to
keep it here. Though I can understand the reasoning I can also see the
limitations.
This song for instance, it's an old one but I had not posted it here,
therefore I thought it appropriate to announce this new version.
If I had posted it here before I don't think I would have felt it appropriate
to post it again.
With my way of working with music I seldom finish a song, I make a release,
then at some point I might decide I want to try something new and another
version is produced. I'd think it a little absurd if I would post all the
point-releases to LAU.. it's just not the right forum. If there was a
dedicated list (I think there was a list but it should be added to the LAD
site to make it "real") or other forum, I think this would become more
natural.
Regards,
Robert

Apologies for this but someone advised me how to compile
the usb-asx2y driver in ALSA v1.0.8 for an AMD64 machine
on Gentoo but after an OS reinstall I've lost that message
and both these archives seem to be down.
http://www.linuxdj.com/audio/lad/archive.phphttp://www.geocrawler.com/lists/3/SourceForge/12350/0/
. are there any searchable archives of either of these
lists anywhere ?
. would anyone know if this driver is compilable yet for
AMD64 from CVS perhaps ?
. or, would anyone know the "trick" to get this module
compiled on Gentoo ? (for AMD64/k2.6.10/a1.0.8)

I'm running unstable but, assuming it's a SoundBlaster Live!, you need the
emu10k1-synth module loaded.
Easy fix is load it with modconf, an arguably "better" solution is to add a
post-install line to /etc/modutils/alsa:
post-install snd-emu10k1 modprobe snd-emu10k1-synth
don't forget to run update-modules. I load my default soundfont the same way.
I'll indulge myself with some pedanticism here and mention FYI that MIDI
doesn't make any noise. It's yer wavetable that stopped working... Anyway
loading the wavetable module is what you need.
I upgraded my debian testing and now MIDI doesn't work anymore when I
run with my 2.6.10-686-smp kernel.
Before I could load soundfonts normally and now I get:
marc@marcbcn:~$ sfxload
No AWE synth device is found
any clue about how to solve it? (google wasn't enough...)
many thanks in advance,
I wouldn't be a debian user without such great mailing lists as LAU and
debian-users...
I've been invited to play with a 4-person laptop ensemble, and
we're planning on setting up an ad-hoc wifi network between the
computers and using OSC to send control messages between the
computers, so that we can interact with eachothers patches.
I think that everyone else is using Max/MSP and supercollider on
powerbooks, and I'm going to be using my linux laptop with PD. I
finally got the OSC external for PD installed(which was a pain
until I just found a .deb package of it), but I can't find any
documentation on how to use it. Has anyone used OSC in PD? I
can't figure out how to tell it where to send the info, and if
attach a number box to the input of "sendOSC", it gives me
"error: sendOSC: no method for 'float'" every time I change the
number.
Thanks a lot!

Hi.
Today morning, I recorded this little chill-out tune. Its really very
simple and all, but I kind of fell in love with it, so I thought
"share and enjoy".
http://delysid.org/music/trance1.ogg
Software used:
* SuperCollider3 (about 40 lines of SCLang code)
* Ecasound (for recording directly from JACK)
* JACK (of course)
I'm probably gonna call this "sunbeam after rainfall". :-)

Hi,
I'm searching a way to record a good guitar distorsion under linux. I
already have a distorsion effects pedal (Zoom GFX8) which sounds quite
good connected to a good guitar amplifier.
However when I connect it to my soundcard I loose the pre-amp, amp and
speaker effects and it sounds crapy. Do you know any program/LADSPA
plugin/other plugin to simulate those steps? Specially I would like to
simulate well the speaker/cabinet.
I would like get rid of the amp + mic to record... But it's not easy for
the disto style which I search (Mesa-Boogie style, reference sound from
bands: Refused, Funeral for a Friend, Poison the well, Thrice...). Do
you think it is possible? What do I need?
hi...
work and fst continued, and i was able to test some vsti synth.
i am totally flashed by arpegiators and i ask myself if we have one for
linux ?
does dssi provide for tempo sync stuff as required be arpegs and
adjusted delays ?
well listen to the tracks, which are of course only rough mixed
recordings of looped sequences with some knob tweaking and additional
tones played.

some other stuff... i did not announce here...
