[linux-audio-user] recommendations on linux RTA

by gen2＠planetofidiots.com

Hi all Can anyone recommend a very high-quality realtime analyzer? (linux) I'm hoping for something with 64 or 128 bands minimum, with a phase display, peak indicators...normal stuff! ;) eXtace is very close but unfortunately not jack compatible, and not likely to be anytime soon... Thanks!

[linux-audio-user] Strange problem with ICE1712 (EWS88D)

by Michele Spinolo

Hi guys, I'm experimenting a strange problem with FC1 PlanetCCRMA distro and a Terratec EWS88D card (ICE1712 driver): everything seems to run fine, but when I switch master clock to s/pdif input (to sync the soundcard to incoming s/pdif datas from a cd player) the s/pdif output is muted. If I switch back to lets say 44100Hz I can hear sound coming back from s/pdif output. Does anyone have any idea how to solve the problem? Thanks! Michele

[linux-audio-user] open source soft synth for osX

by Atte André Jensen

Hi One of my friends has gotten quite interrested in my linuxbased csound setup, but after talking a bit I figured I'd rather start him up with something more "easy". He've only done some mild tweaking of presets in wavetable synths. He's a bit impatient, I think he would rather prefer to "just play", although he has some interrest in shaping the sounds. He's running osX (G4 laptop, 1.5Ghz or so), and would like something open source that will: * play samples, stuff like piano, rhodes * do descent hammond, pref with leslie simulation * a few synth sounds (pad, lead) here and there * runs under osX * is OSS * can be controlled from logic * can be used in realtime, controlled by keyboards I think it would be best for him if it was one package, since this gives him less to learn. I think it should be gui-based to some extend although I didn't discuss that with him. I promissed him to ask around here, so here goes: Is such a thing available??? Or would you recommend other directions that I was thinging of? -- peace, love & harmony Atte http://www.atte.dk

[linux-audio-user] exact range

by Noah Roberts

How do you select a range from say 1:56:00 to 2:37:00 in ardour? The best I can find to do is set your tool to range and try to select the right region. There has to be a better, more accurate way but I can't find it. Thanks

[linux-audio-user] Skype and Alsa

by Brad Fuller

Anyone been able to use Skype with Alsa apps? When I try to start Jack-Rack with Skype running Jack-Rack comes back with an error: === Could not open ALSA sequencer, aborting No such file or directory Make sure you have configure ALSA properly and that /proc/asound/seq/clients exists and contains relevant devices. ==== Qjackctl also comes back with an error that it can't open ALSA sequencer as a client. I traced it down to Skype. When I tried: alsasound stop (during or after stopping Skype,) I received: ---- [root@ives bfuller]# /etc/rc.d/init.d/alsasound stop Shutting down sound driverERROR: Module snd_ice1712 is in use ERROR: Module snd_ice17xx_ak4xxx is in use by snd_ice1712 ERROR: Module snd_ak4xxx_adda is in use by snd_ice1712,snd_ice17xx_ak4xxx ERROR: Module snd_cs8427 is in use by snd_ice1712 ERROR: Module snd_ac97_codec is in use by snd_ice1712 ERROR: Module snd_mixer_oss is in use ERROR: Module snd_pcm is in use by snd_ice1712,snd_ac97_codec ERROR: Module snd_timer is in use by snd_pcm ERROR: Module snd_i2c is in use by snd_ice1712,snd_cs8427 ERROR: Module snd_mpu401_uart is in use by snd_ice1712 ERROR: Module snd_rawmidi is in use by snd_mpu401_uart ERROR: Module snd_seq_device is in use by snd_rawmidi ERROR: Module snd is in use by snd_ice1712,snd_ice17xx_ak4xxx,snd_ak4xxx_adda,snd_cs8427,snd_ac97_codec,snd_mixer_oss,snd_pcm,snd_timer,snd_i2c,snd_mpu401_uart,snd_rawmidi,snd_seq_device [ OK ] ---- Even after I quit Skype, Qjackctl won't start at all. One time, when I found the Skype bkg process, I killed it and it made everything work. But, I could only find it once! Strange. In the Hand/Headsets settings (options) the "Audio devices" are devices on my PC: /dev/dsp. But the sequencer is /dev/snd/seq. Anyway, Skype has been handy for me for remote session directing (better than a phone, and not all studios have ISDN.) If I could get it to work on Linux (rather than windows) I would be much happier. brad -- Brad Fuller (408) 799-6124 ** Sonaural Audio Studios ** (408) 799-6123 West San Jose (408) 799-6124 Cambrian ________________________________ Hear us online: www.Sonaural.com

[linux-audio-user] Record XMMS output in Ardour?

by Steve Fosdick

Is it possible to record the output from XMMS with ardour? I imagined this could be done via jack and found a jack output plugin for xmms but I can't get ardour to see this as an input. What should I try? TiA, Steve.

[linux-audio-user] csound instrument wanted (soprano)

by Julien Claassen

Hi all! I wonder. I once had a csound .orc+example score for a model/immitation of a soprano human voice. Unfortunately I lost it. Yet now I need it urgently for a composition of mine. Can anyone help me? Point me to the correct location on the net or mail it as an attachment? I looked through the usual places: csound.com and bath... No success. I remember that I got it by browsing through Dave's personal csound-links page, but it seems to be gone. Kindest regards Julien -------- 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

I started a Wiki page again as in the years before: http://footils.org/cms/pydiddy/wiki/GetToLac2005 It's like a message board, but without messages: Everyone edits the same page so please be nice. Feel free to leave contact data there, either if you look for a ride or if you can offer one. This of course not only applies to Berlin visitors. ;) Ciao -- Frank Barknecht _ ______footils.org__ _ __latest track: "scans" _ http://footils.org/cms/show/41

[linux-audio-user] ? How to load soundfont at boot-up

by nigel henry

Greetings to the Audio-User list. I'm mainly using FC1 & FC2. Music apps from planetccrma. Soundcard is Audigy2 soundblaster using the emu10k1 driver. Alsa I think is now 1.0.9. I have awesfx installed and can install the soundfont from my Audigy card ok from the CLI. I can also start Rosegarden which I have configured to load the sound font from its path to /home/user/ <soundfont> and the font loads ok. If I want to use Kmid I can either load the soundfont on the CLI or start and then stop Rosegarden before opening Kmid to play a .midi file. Ideally, I'd like the sound font to be loaded at boot-up. Anyone got any suggestions? It's no big deal to load it each time you boot, but would be nicer if would install automatically when you bootup. The soundfont is in /home/user. Sfxload is in /usr/bin. "You can load a default Sound Font Bank automatically with installing the module. Just append a line like post-install sound /usr/bin/sfxload synthgm.sbk to your /etc/conf.modules file." That bit in the quotes was from Marcus Brinkmanns HOW-TO but is a bit old,using kernel 2.0. Anyone who's got sfxload to auto load a soundfont please reply. Nigel.
