[linux-audio-user] Xjadeo compile trouble

by Spencer Russell

Hey all, I'm about to start on a sound/video project, and was looking at Xjadeo to get everything all synced up with ardour. I'm having a heck of a time trying to get it to compile, though. I've got the latest debian unstable packages of libavcodec-dev, libavformat-dev, libdts-dev, and ffmpeg, and I'm still getting a bunch of errors like: /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i486-linux/3.3.5/../../../libavcodec.a(dtsdec.o)(.text+0x33d): In function `dts_decode_frame': : undefined reference to `dts_frame' Someone said something about using a shared libavcodec, which solved this problem with some other program not compiling, but I'm not sure exactly how to go about making that happen. Any Ideas? Anyone gotten Xjadeo to compile on a debian system? thanks, Spencer

[linux-audio-user] JACK newbie

by Stephen Ceresia

Hi all, I'm new to the world of Linux audio, but have been programming beats and working with MIDI and digital audio in the Windows world for many years now. In other words, I'm not new to MIDI and audio, but I am to Linux. :) Anyway, what I'm trying to do is use it along with an app that could play back audio files. Basically, I want to use seq24 for the sequencing, and use another app for triggerring samples, all running from the same clock (which is where I'm assuming JACK comes in). Does anyone know of a tutorial or walkthrough for beginners to achieve this setup? Again, I apologize for my limited Linux knowledge, but this platform seems extremely interesting for audio, and I definitely want to learn what I can. The rock solid performance of seq24 is incredible. I have yet to see a Windows app perform that I would feel as comfortable using in a live situation. If other apps perform like this, I won't be booting back into Windows anytime soon. ;)

[linux-audio-user] [ANN] KMidimon 0.1 (new) & KMetronome 0.5 (updated)

by Pedro Lopez-Cabanillas

KMidimon 0.1 ============ KMidimon is a MIDI monitor for Linux using ALSA sequencer, with KDE user interface. Quoting Dave Phillips in a three parts article for Linux Journal: "At some point, almost every serious MIDI musician needs to monitor a MIDI data stream, perhaps to diagnose a malfunctioning piece of equipment or to examine the contents of a MIDI sequence during playback". Features: * Easy to use KDE graphic user interface * Based on ALSA sequencer Provides one input port to be connected to other programs and devices using the usual external tools (aconnect, kaconnect, QJackCtl...) * Customizable event filters and sequencer parameters * Supports all MIDI messages, including System Exclusive, and ALSA messages * Saves to a text file (CSV format) the recorded event list * GPL licensed Provisional home page: http://kmetronome.sourceforge.net/kmidimon/ Download: http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/kmetronome/kmidimon-0.1.tar.gz?download KMetronome 0.5 ============== KMetronome is a MIDI based metronome using the ALSA sequencer. This is a maintenance release fixing some compilation and runtime bugs. Please upgrade. Home page: http://kmetronome.sourceforge.net/ Download: http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/kmetronome/kmetronome-0.5.tar.gz?download Changes ------- release 0.5 * autosave window settings (size...) * apply tempo/resolution when accept changes in configuration dialog * fixed bug in sequencerthread: set_program event must be direct. * other minor changes release 0.4 added features * Internal connection management now remembers the input port connection. * new setTempo and setTimeSignature functions added to the DCOP interface. fixed bugs * fixed compilation problem under Fedora Core 3 * fixed some automake problems

[linux-audio-user] Playing Dat files

by Shiraz Baig

Most of the Vedio CDs, that I purchase from Bazar are of the form *.dat. But I have not been able to find linux software which can run these CDs. I have tried xmms, grip and sox etc. But they cannot read the CDs. Could someone please advise which software to use and where to download it from. bye shiraz __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

[linux-audio-user] live performance info

by nebogeo

Hi all, I finally made it to the LAC (yay) and did a performance which seemed to generate a few questions that I probably didn't answer too well, in my post-gig-panic state :) (was the night recorded btw?) The main page for software I was using can be found here: http://www.pawfal.org/Software/livenoisetools/ This is probably the best explanation (huge url alert): http://savannah.nongnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/livenoisetools/livenoisetools/no… The software is not really aimed at end users, or that coherently documented, it's more of a research/art project, that might provide ideas for a usable application later. feel free to give it a go, but it will need hacking to some extent I expect. Also, seeing as there has been some debate over whether linux is ready for live use, I've been using the following setup for the last 12 months, it's kinda old now, but it's with good reason - it's completely stable for me: Thinkpad R31 running Slackware 9.0, with Luke Yelavich's AudioSlack distribution and LL kernel. Jack 0.99.0 release (might have updated to a cvs version - can't remember) I use liblo for OSC communication between a sequencer, sampler and synth - and for communication from the GUI, which is written in python, using tkinter. I also use bash scripts for killing old processes, launching all the apps, and connecting the jack ports up. I find this really valuable, as you dont want to have to think about this stuff when you're nervous just before starting. Many many thanks to all the people who have worked so hard to make linux the powerful, dependable platform you need for live work. cheers, dave

[linux-audio-user] Re: [linux-audio-dev] Tracktion, JUCE and Linux

by Rui Nuno Capela

Hi, FYI, here goes the response from JUCE's author to my original post, which I think is of interest to the LA* ... sorry for the cross-post. Cheers. -- rncbc aka Rui Nuno Capela rncbc(a)rncbc.org ---------------------------- Original Message ---------------------------- Subject: Re: Tracktion, JUCE and Linux From: "Julian Storer" <jules(a)rawmaterialsoftware.com> Date: Tue, April 26, 2005 17:13 To: "Rui Nuno Capela" <rncbc(a)rncbc.org> -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi there Hi there Yes, well spotted, it's taken longer than I hoped to get around to the linux port, but we're finally getting there! And I would indeed be very grateful for any help on the audio/midi side of things, as I'm a complete newbie on linux, and have no idea where to begin! So if you or any of the LADs want to have a go at filling in the audio stuff or pointing me in the right direction, I'd be very happy to work with you on it. Not sure of the best way to handle collaboration though - I've only taken a few bits from other people, and it's generally involved them sending me something they've written, and then me re-writing it because it's not done in quite the way I like it! Oh, and I've already applied for a sourceforge account now, so will host the stuff on there as well in future. Cheers Jules

[linux-audio-user] midi thru.

by immanuel litzroth

I am using rosegarden and a audiophile 24/96 on my linux system. Due to my setup I do not want midi in echoed on midi out (no midi thru). How do I tell alsa (or rosegarden) to do this? Thanks in advance Immanuel

Re: [linux-audio-user] Ableton live user

by R Parker

Hi, > Iain Duncan has been using the Linux version of > Csound for > performances lasting hours at a time, Ron Parker has > been employing > Ardour as the DAW of choice in his professional > studio (Mirror Image > Studios) for the past six months I recently stated that during the last six months Ardour has been the exclusive DAW for my audio production work. After thinking about it and reviewing my calendar I believe it's closer to 12 months. I began using and testing Ardour in 2001 and cut the first of a half dozen complete albums with it in 2002. I've produced a bunch of four to six song demos. It has been an eventful and often frustrating experience. Despite the state of reliability and my private emotional outbursts I never seriously considered giving up on using Linux Audio tools. Is Linux Audio for everyone? No. For anyone that's curious about what's under the hood of their tractor I can't believe anything compares. And thanks to some talented and relentless users and developers there's some very usable products. Not every producer, engineer or musician wants to know about or participate in building new solutions. , and many other > people on and off this > list are using Linux daily for the music creation > and production needs. > > Levi D.

BTW, what is Ableton Live and what exists in Linux Audio that comparible to it? I'm completely clueless. > > Oh, and using linux audio software live? I > wouldn't. Maybe Levi has been having a rough experience. I have no idea what that's like. Unless having a studio full of paying clients standing around and wondering what the fuck a segfault is qualifies. In that case I have few peers. When I enter the gates of hell one fist will be holding a linux audio laptop that's loaded with core dumps and the other will be full albums produced with Linux audio tools. And that's good enough for me. > > Felipe Machado wrote: > > > >> i use ableton live in my show. but now i want use > linux. waht > >> software i have to install to use, looks like > ableton live ? or > >> other good sample. > >> i edit some samples and play with a group. I'm not a sampler, looper, synthesis user. I am a wannabe. I'm completely in the dark about the state of these types of applications. I've used SSM in a few of my mix productions where I route recorded audio sources into the SSM jack'd inputs. That shit rules! I've got a film score client that looked at me and started laughing his guts out when he heard what I'd done to his music with SSM. He said, "damned king, i don't know what to think of that. It's insane. i think it works." After playing it for some people he reported that everyone loves it. My studio partner Dana and I have a Kurzweil k2000r that we intended to drive from Rosegarden. When I fired up Zynaddsubfx we turned the power off on the k2000r. RG and Zyn in sync with Ardour via jackd is awesome. Are these applications reliable on stage? If I had to perform tonight I'd put the k2000r on stage. The studio is a different situation. Until my experience extends beyound being a novice I would require "known to be reliable" for live performances. In other words, I have the determination to learn how to use my tools of choice. They are Linux Audio applications. And it would piss me off to not use them. I don't know what my points are but in the corner of my vision is a drum kit. I'm oughta here! ron > >> thaks > >> > >> > > > > > __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
