[linux-audio-user] MAudio Audiophile USB strikes back

by Pierre-Antoine Champin

Hello, I just bought an Audiophile USB, and have some problems making it work. In the archive of this list (thank you guys !), I found out that plughw:3 works better than hw:3 with jack, alsaplayer and so on, which will not even start else. I managed to hear some sound with aplay and alsaplayer, and to record some sound with an awful saturation from plughw:3,1 (I don't understand precisely why I have to specify the subdevice on input more than on output, but I can live with that). I then tried to fix the saturation problem with alsamixer, and here come the problems. 'alsamixer -c 3' outputs 'No mixer elems found'. Is this a limitation of the device, the alsa driver or my hacking skills ? Is there a means of having alsamixer work, or any other software mixer ? Or do I have to control manually the input level ? My second problem is with jack. Basically, once configured to use plughw:3 for output and plughw:3,1 for input, I got it running but with a continuous fluttering buzz. As soon as I sent some sound in the input, I got a bunch of xruns and jack stoped. I saw on the archives that someone fixed some xrun problems by setting a periods/buffer of 4. I didn't try that yet, but do you think that could kill the buzz as well ? More generally, does anyone have an experience of running an Audiophile USB completely with linux? I bought it in the faith of the alsa website, claiming support for this device, but searching the net gives me the impression that some problems remain... regards Pierre-Antoine Champin PS: for the record, I use a Debian/testing with kernel 2.6.1, alsa drivers from the kernel, libasound2 1.0.9, jack 0.99.0 .

Does anyone happen to know who's behind <http://www.opensourcemusic.info>? "The site is run by a group of volunteers who devote lots of time, and many many sleepless nights." seems a little vague...

[linux-audio-user] rt preempt and reiser4

by Tim Blechmann

hi all, has anyone been able to compile an rt-patched kernel with the reiser4 kernel patches lately? the latest one i'm running at the moment is 2.6.12-rc5-RT-V0.7.47-12 ... the most recent one i tried is 2.6.12-RT-V0.7.50-50 but the reiser4 patches don't compile against this any more ... thanks in advance (and please no reiser4 flamewar) tim -- mailto:TimBlechmann@gmx.de ICQ: 96771783 http://www.mokabar.tk latest mp3: kMW.mp3 http://mattin.org/mp3.html latest cd: Goh Lee Kwang & Tim Blechmann: Drone http://www.geocities.com/gohleekwangtimblechmannduo/ After one look at this planet any visitor from outer space would say "I want to see the manager."

[linux-audio-user] midisport 2x2

by Stephen Ceresia

Hi all, I recently upgraded to kernel 2.6.12-2multimedia-386, and I seem to have killed my perfectly functioning Midisport 2x2. When I launch seq24, the Midisport outputs no longer appears as options. It seems that my cheap onboard laptop soundcard has been defaulted to take care of MIDI. The firmware appears to load successfully, and I've tried doing $ modprobe snd-seq , but no luck. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated... I just got some new gear and was having a great time sequencing... what bad timing! Stephen

[linux-audio-user] Audacity & mp3 files

by Gavin Stevens

Hi all, I was wondering if anyone else had experienced the following problem: Most of the time when I import an mp3 file into Audacity it opens with no problem, but just occasionally, an mp3 file that plays perfectly happily in XMMS, in stereo, will import as a mono file in Audacity. Given that the problem is not happening all the time, I suspect that Audacity may not be the cause of this, but if anyone can shed any light on it & maybe suggest a way round it (command line solutions are OK), I should be most grateful. TIA Gavin.

[linux-audio-user] no sound card

I have installed fedora core 3 (2.6.11-1.35_FC3) on a old toshiba 310 CDT. system-config-soundcard does not find a sound card.

[linux-audio-user] problems with hdsp 9632

i've just installed latest stable debian over an old mdk dist.. and i had no problems getting the hdsp running with exactly the same hardware in mdk, so it must be something with my config in debian and/or alsa. below's some info, let me know if you wanna see anything else.. but it looks like it's there and everything (snd-hdsp etc is loaded without errors) but when running e.g. hdspmixer it can't find the card. i didnt forget to run update-modules. i installed and ran everything as root according to the instructions on the page for the hdsp on the offical alsa site.. /anders % cat /etc/modutils/alsa # ALSA portion alias char-major-116 snd alias snd-card-0 snd-hdsp # module options should go here # OSS/Free portion alias char-major-14 soundcore alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0 % cat /root/.asoundrc pcm.hdsp { type hw card 0 } ctl.hdsp { type hw card 0 } % lspci -vv ... 0000:00:07.0 Multimedia audio controller: Xilinx Corporation RME Hammerfall DSP (rev 96) Control: I/O- Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- Stepping- SERR- FastB2B- Status: Cap- 66MHz- UDF- FastB2B- ParErr- DEVSEL=medium >TAbort- <TAbort- <MAbort- >SERR- <PERR- Latency: 255 Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 18 Region 0: Memory at dfff0000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64K] ... % cat /proc/asound/card0/hdsp RME Hammerfall HDSP 9632 (Card #1) Buffers: capture dd200000 playback dd000000 IRQ: 18 Registers bus: 0xdfff0000 VM: 0xe0991000 Control register: 0x6b0040de Control2 register: 0x0 Status register: 0x32000000 Status2 register: 0xffff8701 FIFO status: 0 MIDI1 Output status: 0xffffff00 MIDI1 Input status: 0xffffff00 MIDI2 Output status: 0xffffff00 MIDI2 Input status: 0xffffff00 Use Midi Tasklet: on Buffer Size (Latency): 8192 samples (2 periods of 32768 bytes) Hardware pointer (frames): 0 Precise pointer: on Line out: on Firmware version: 1 Sample Clock Source: Internal 48 kHz Preferred Sync Reference: ADAT1 AutoSync Reference: None AutoSync Frequency: 0 System Clock Mode: Master System Clock Frequency: 48000 IEC958 input: Coaxial IEC958 output: Coaxial only IEC958 quality: Consumer IEC958 emphasis: off IEC958 NonAudio: off IEC958 sample rate: Error flag set ADAT1: No Lock SPDIF: No Lock Word Clock: No Lock ADAT Sync: No Lock AD Gain : +4 dBu DA Gain : +4 dBu Phones Gain : 0 dB XLR Breakout Cable : no AEB : off (ADAT1 external)

[linux-audio-user] A whole new type of project for me

by Joe Hartley

A friend of mine has asked me to help him out with a film that he's made. He needs me to help clean up the audio by evening out the sound, highlighting the 3 spoken lines in the piece, and adding some original music (which I'd already recorded for a mutual friend) at the end. I'm sure I can do the audio tweaking he wants, but I am completely new to working with video. He's given me a DVD that says it's in the OpenDVD format, created using MyDVD with AuthorScript by Sonic Solutions. Can anyone point me to a Linux-based tool that will allow me to work with the soundtrack on this type of DVD? I'm guessing that there's more to this than ripping the audio somehow and manipulating it, then throwing it back on with no thought to synchronization! Thanks for any pointers folks can give me towards making this work. -- ====================================================================== Joe Hartley - UNIX/network Consultant - jh(a)brainiac.com Without deviation from the norm, "progress" is not possible. - FZappa
