Hi, I recently did a "MIDI linux box". A Suse installed on a minimal hardware configuration. There is everything needed to transform MIDI events in to beautiful sounds with Fluidsynth (I use a SB live). Everything works fine with my Terratec TMS3 MIDI keyboard, but I have to use this linux box with a Technics keyboard (something like this http://www.technics.com/pc25.html) in my music group. And there, no MIDI events are coming to fluidsynth ...... samething with an old MIDI keyboard, but this old keyboard can receive the Technics MIDI events and play them ! so the Technics ports are not broken ... Is there to 2 version of the MIDI protocol ?!? somebody already got this ?? Best regards, Gilles

I've got a 512 DSL. Heath was on a lan line and stated that the hotel probably had t1 bandwidth. I don't really know but would guess the hotel uses a DSL line. I've tested with a couple other people where they had cable and another DSL. In both cases the performance is excellent. I think the server is running at '-q 0' which is the lowest quality but Heath stated that it sounded real good. Oh, and one of my roommates was streaming semipro hockey over the line while we running our studio session. Not bad! I'll be doing some tracking work with my studio partner Dana. He's on a cable modem. He can stream a sequence which I can then overdub drums to or vice versa. I suppose we could put several streams into a series. Afterwards we can use SEX to update our Ardour snapshots with the .wav files. This isn't exactly what's been discussed here in the last week but I suppose it's proof of concept. And if it isn't good enough we're all free to purchase that $1,500.00 ProFools module that does the same thing. :) ron > -- > ====================================================================== > Joe Hartley - UNIX/network Consultant - > jh(a)brainiac.com > Without deviation from the norm, "progress" is not > possible. - FZappa > __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

[linux-audio-user] hey big buddy; got your ogg ears up?

by R Parker

Hey, One of my clients, Heath from St. Louis MI. USA, and I have just completed a realtime mixing session over the internet. He mailed me a HDD with 12 songs that need to be mixed and mastered. I live a couple states North in Minneapolis, MN where my business partners and I have been running our commercial recording studio for 20 years. Heath was in a motel room in Boston, Massachusetts listening to a live Ogg Vorbis stream from the stereo master output of my mixing consol on a Windows laptop using Winamp. Here's a short snippet from our conversation: <heath> yeah. can i hear the back vox up a little more? <rparker> sure ... <heath> going into the solo the lead gtr can probably come through more still. unless you think it crowds it <rparker> one sec <heath> i'm happy with the vox This is a JACKD, Ardour session using Icecast and the oddcastv3-jack module to realtime stream the session onto the internet over a DSL connection. When Heath requests a change, I make the mix moves, he hears the results and confirms whether or not they are acceptable. We're using IRC for the live chat. This is a commercial session and Heath is paying me to work on his band's music. Technical problems or excuses of any kind are unaccpetable. On the server side, at the studio, the setup is peforming rock solid without any technical problems. I don't know about anyone else but for an old dawg like me Linux Audio is great stuff. A big thank you to the developers and users. Ron Parker Mirror Image Studios 2428 Dupont Ave. S. Minneapolis, MN 55405 __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

[linux-audio-user] question for Delta 1010 users

by Florin Andrei

I bought a Delta 1010, which works very well. But there's one strange thing: I let the system running the whole day and, when i came back home this evening, the power LED on the 1010 was turned off and the card was not passing any signal in or out. The OS was seeing it, i was able to run envy24control, but couldn't hear anything. Rebooting the system didn't help. After power-cycling the system, the card works fine again. Cause? Remedy? Also, is your card running hot like mine does? (epecially the left-hand side of the box) -- Florin Andrei http://florin.myip.org/

[linux-audio-user] OT / RE: poor man's copyright

by Dan Easley

the mailing something to yourself to prove creation date technique, or "poor man's copyright", seems to have, at least in most Berne Convention countries, very little purpose. see http://www.copyrightauthority.com/poor-mans-copyright/ for a fair elaboration. of course, different rules for different countries. -- dan easley (dan(a)burntpossum.com) prabob

[linux-audio-user] Rosegarden note-off problem

by §t3

Hi! I'm running Rosegarden for the first time, everything works, it connects with Jack but I've a problem: it seems to ignore note-off messages from my Access Indigo 2 (that I'm using as master keyboard also). Rosegarden must be the problem beacause if I quit it and connect everything directly with Qjackctl...IT WORKS ! I've checked but no midi message is filtered by Rosegarden, so...I've no idea. Any advice or idea? -- =====>§t3<=====

[linux-audio-user] Common Music vs Open Music

by Jamie Bullock

Dear list, Could anyone who has used both of the above pieces of software give a brief comparison, or point to an appropriate url? Aside from the fact that OM is graphical, what are the functional differences? Which offers the broadest range of features, and which is more widely used/better supported? Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated, as I don't particularly want to install and learn both just to find out which I prefer! Thanks, Jamie

[linux-audio-user] Filling in some holes in my largely limited linux and audio knowledge

by thewade

Hello list-o-mine, I am trying to fill in some holes in my knowledge of linux and of audio mixing techniques. I was wondering if you might help me oh multi-headed hydra? First I am trying to figure out compression. In PD I am using a [limiter~] object and passing to that object a limit of 98db, ratio of 1:1.5, threshold of 10, hold time of 50, and release time of 150. Most everything is too quiet so I plan to just turn everything up linierly and the peaks will get compressed. I know this is a hotly debated subject as no compression would be ideal, but can you give me perhaps three examples of some settings you use for (example 3 types of settings): pop music, classical or performance levels, and some middle ground? Do you use both a compressor and expander? If so what order. Before you publish a track, either on CD or on the net, how do you insure someone else wont put their name on your track and take credit for it? I am having trouble getting audacity to find my audio devices on my x86_64 Fedora Core 3t1 hdsp hammerfall multiface laptop. Anyone else have this problem and solve it? The audacity people haven\'t gotten back to me yet. Can someone give me an example of sox\'s compand effect? I can\'t figure out the syntax. Lastly, I always thought a linux distro was just a system of file arranging: e.x. every config file somewhere in /etc for redhat/fedora core. What is the difference between distros besides initial setup stuff (like redhat comes with a lot turned on, but you can turn stuff off and be just like gentoo, right)? Thanks for the help, now and for as long as I have been drawing upon your vast and distributed knowledge! -thewade

[linux-audio-user] Linuxtag 2005 audio booth participation

by Christoph Eckert

Hi, first of all, sorry for the cross posting, but I thought the topic is worth it. Again, this year the Linuxtag will happen in Karlsruhe, Germany. It's Europe's most important event concerning free, especially Linux based software. During the last years, Frank Neumann has politely organized an audio booth there. Unfortunately, it can happen that he'll not be able to do all management stuff this year again. So, I'll try my very best to help out this year, otherwise we wouldn't have a booth. We're still looking for people who are interested in helping, mainly being at the booth, answering questions and demoing software. If you like to contribute, please let me know. For detailed information about the Linuxtag see http://www.linuxtag.org/2005/en/home.html or contact me via personal mail. Best regards ce
