[linux-audio-user] weird failure connected to lsm?

by thewade

Hello, I have a weird problem. I have been running 2.6.10 with the lsm patch for a while now with no trouble but lately I have been getting crashes that freeze the machine so much that I have to leave the machine off for a couple of minutes before turning it back on or it is still frozen. All the crashes have happened while running firefox, thunderbird, and xmms. My lsm is started by running modprobe realtime gid=my_gid. I have searched var/logs/messages but nothing sticks out. At one point my /var partition was full becasue of mail not sent to root in spool/clientmqueue becasue I dont run sendmail on this machine but I fixed that and ran fsck on it at boot once. What should I check? Helpppp! Thanks! -thebroken

It's not a bad idea but there are additional challanges that need to be handled...fades, timing between songs and playlists are a few examples. T-Racks doesn't come close to having an interface that satisfies my mastering needs. The other side of the task is authoring to CD or DVD. I don't think any of that is a trivial set of interfaces to design or code. And that's probably the reason nobody has done it. Ardour does handle some of the tasks already, the interfaces are far from complete, and I believe it will eventually handle all our authoring needs. ron > But it is a great software, even without the > before-mentioned option. > > > __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

[linux-audio-user] Magnifying LilyPond output by using landscape mode?

by Mario Lang

Hi. To make a long story short, I recently gained the ability to make normal print into a tactile thing very easily. Now, I'd really like to have a short piece of music for getting an idea how this stuff normally looks... Of course not for playing or anything serious, its more a thing of interest. However, if I print out a straight A4 PostScript file generated by LilyPond, the resulting information density is soo high that I basically can not feel much difference between the individual notes, let along figure out their exact position vertically. What I'd like to do is to flip LilyPond output by 90 degree, and magnify it as much as possible, so that one system goes all the way along the long axis of an A4 paper. I've choosen Musette from www.MutopiaProject.org as my example piece since it normally fits on one A4 page, so I guess after my magnification it should probably take up 3 or 4 pages? Also, I know that tune in and out, so its surely a good way to getting a grasp of the system... I've tried all sorts of things like editing the LilyPond .latex files directly, switching to landscape mode and all that, but the result never really worked as I expected. Digging through all the PostScript postprocessor tools didn't help either. psresize can not flip, and psnup can not magnify and so on and so on. PLEASE, if anyone got an idea how I could accomplish this and still keep a fairly high resolution, please please let me know. P.S.: In case you're confused after reading this, I am blind, and tactile print is the only way for me to access graphical content right now. -- CYa, Mario

But it is a great software, even without the before-mentioned option.

[linux-audio-user] Ardour and Hydrogen...issues with Jack Transport

by Russell Hanaghan

Hi, Here's the layout: Ardour beta 28 Latest Hydrogen Mdk 10.1 Latest Jack and Qjackctl. Was trying to Sync Ardour with Hydrogen thru Jack Transport. Everything would sync fine but could not get sound thru Ardour or even into Ardour it seemed from live inputs when transport was engaged and Ardour was set to "Sync with Jack". Did not have opportunity to try other apps with Ardour...never had this happen before though. Jack transport has always pretty much worked. The transport part works fine but seems odd to lose the inputs of whatever instruments are live because of it? thanks

[linux-audio-user] usb thingy for controlling program changes

by Atte André Jensen

Hi I'm looking for at USB thing that will store program changes, group them in (a lot of) "patches" and then when selecting a "patch" will send the stored program changes. A chain feature (that could be triggered by foot switch) would also be nice. And most importent: it should work with linux (the reason I ask here first). Is such a thing out there? -- peace, love & harmony Atte http://www.atte.dk

Intriguing program but its multiprocess paradigm (this is not a file-file or file-playback filter, one must play something, jack it into jamin) it too much a cpu hawg for my old clunker :-)

Hammerfall hdsp works well (except the hdsp_mixer shows bad levels, but i only use that to unmute the card so I dont care about that). It works well for me, except the recent crashes which are weird. I dont even know what I changed, becasue before last week my machine was running fine... -thewade

[linux-audio-user] Anyone using a 64 bit distribution?

by aljordan＠maine.rr.com

Hello, I upgraded my chip and motherboard to an AMD 64 based system. I've installed Fedora Core 3 x86_64 but it seems that I have to jump through a bunch of hoops to get audio apps to compile that I didn't have to go through on the FC3 32 bit distribution. I've decided to give up and try another release after the troubles I am facing compiling Rosegarden. Is anyone using a 64 bit distribution that they are happy with? If not, is there a particularly good standard distribution that people are using for DAW apps? I will be using mostly sequencing, softsynths, and mixdown apps such as Rosegarden, Swami, and QSynth. I need to stay with the 2.6 kernel for hardware support. Thanks for any recommendations, Alan

[linux-audio-user] Ardour created stuff

by Noah Roberts

I do all my work with ardour. I still have a lot to learn but I am getting more and more profficient at it. My soundclick site is 99% me and so 99% ardour: http://www.soundclick.com/noahroberts/ my guitars101 artist page contains stuff I mixed with ardour: http://www.guitars101.com/jamroom/bands/18/ The other participants used various unknown programs to create their tracks, and the BT was originally an mp3, but the mixing and such was done with ardour. My parts were recorded with ardour.
