hallo, the new version of my audio editor eisenkraut finally seems to be linux compliant. i've tested it on fedora with a recent supercollider build without problems. watch out: http://sourceforge.net/projects/eisenkraut eisenkraut is a java based audio file editor which uses supercollider for playback. there's also an interesting new package jcollider on the sourceforge site which you may wish to explore if you are into supercollider ;-) best, -sciss- ___________________________________________________________ Gesendet von Yahoo!

[linux-audio-user] alsa clients plugged into jackd with jackplug

by Esben Stien

I don't think I understand this jackplug concept. I'm trying to get an alsa client, such as aplay to play through jackd. I've setup jackplug in /etc/asound.conf pcm.jackplug { type plug slave { pcm "jack" } } pcm.jack { type jack playback_ports { 0 alsa_pcm:playback_1 1 alsa_pcm:playback_2 } capture_ports { 0 alsa_pcm:capture_1 1 alsa_pcm:capture_2 } } I then tell aplay to use: #aplay -d jackplug foobar.wav But aplay plays the file even if jackd is not started; why?. Isn't jackplug supposed to show up in my jack connections when aplay is playing? I seem to be missing something vital. Is there some way to make a "fake audio device", like hw:3,0 that alsa applications can connect to so that I can get the audio out and then send it through jack, process it and then send it to the real audio device? -- Esben Stien is b0ef(a)esben-stien.name http://www.esben-stien.name irc://irc.esben-stien.name/%23contact [sip|iax]:b0ef@esben-stien.name

[linux-audio-user] [ANN] wiki.freeaudiosoftware.org online

by Christoph Eckert

Hi, finally the Wiki went online: http://wiki.freeaudiosoftware.org http://freeaudiosoftware.org currently is a simple redirect to the wiki. About this Wiki: The idea was that we have a Wiki to collect hints, tips and solutions we see in this list. Why a new domain? I often found useful hints in this list, but none of the existing wikis seemed to be on topic, so I stored info on my private machine only. It's a pity. So if you get valuable info from this list or want to contribute to the wiki in any way I'd be glad if the Wiki grew to a central place where users of free audio software will get a good starting point to get info about tutorials, software usage, an overview over important web pages and so on. I hope you like it and help making it worth the efforts. Best regards ce

[linux-audio-user] External interface with many inputs

by Arnaud Gomes-do-Vale

Hi, I would like to buy an external audio interface (mainly for a laptop, but I may use it with my desktop machine too). My requirements are: - must work with Linux (obviously) and MacOSX, - at least 4 inputs, 8 would be better (for recording drums among other things), - at least a couple preamps would be nice, but this is not an absolute requirement. AFAICT, most USB interfaces have only 2 inputs. I found the Edirol UA-101 and the Lexicon Omega Desktop Recording Studio which look like what I want, does anyone have any experience with these two? -- Arnaud

[linux-audio-user] Frontier Design wireless control surface

by ross＠jose.lug.udel.edu

Hello everyone, There was an ardour-users post about this device today: http://www.frontierdesign.com/Products/TranzPort which costs $199 from samash.com, and has fully published MIDI specs. Is there a chance anyone has tried it? I have been tossing around the idea of getting a cheapo laptop to use as a thin client to my Ardour machine so I can easily interact with Ardour while recording (I used to do a lot of drum recordings, and always getting up to walk from kit to computer was annoying!) This sucker seems like a great idea - I could ditch the thin client and remotely control my stuff. And with the specs, it'd be easy to make it do a host of other stuff to... -- Ross Vandegrift ross(a)lug.udel.edu "The good Christian should beware of mathematicians, and all those who make empty prophecies.

[linux-audio-user] TeamSpeak voe's and Hardware advice.

by Joacim Jacobsson

Hi all! I tried searching the archive's but they dont want to play it seems. I have a laptop with a crappy AC'97 sound chip. I almost made myself bald trying to get software mixing to work so I can run TeamSpeak and cedega (WoW in my case) at the same time. Finaly I managed it with a un-holy alliance between dmix/dsnoop with TeamSpeak talking to artsd. To me, all this is hairy in the extreme, and it munche's cpu-cycles like a 3 year old in an candy-store. aoss & TeamSpeak simply does not work. Not in any shape or form. So, looking to aleviate my problems I went looking for some new hardware that would do hardware mixing. I was seduced by the sexyness of usb-headset's and bought myself a Plantronics GameCom Pro 1, thinking to myself "It's got a DSP, it does hardware mixing surely?". No, no it does not. At least not with snd-usb-audio. I dont actualy know if it's the headset or the drivers. If you have any pointer's or expeirences with this I would love to hear from you. Being slightly unhappy with this (not to unhappy tough, the GameCom is a lot easier on the ear than the builtin) I went looking again for a solution. And I found this: http://www.creative.com/products/product.asp?category=1&subcategory=204&pro… and now I'm salivating again. But this time I have managed to keep my credit-card in it's holster long enough to ask here first. Anyone have any experience with this sort of thing? Will this do Hardware mixing? Releasing me from my struggle's with arts dmix/dsnoop and it's ilk? Is it, in short, the answer to my parayers? Thanks in advance for any help/info you can provide. //Joacim Jacobsson

[linux-audio-user] Looking for complicated MIDI files

by Mario Lang

Hi. I am still writing this MIDI editing mode for Emacs. My backend is getting quite usable, and I reached the point where it parses and writes back out every MIDI file on my disk without loosing data. However, I'd like to make sure that what I am working with is really robust and do yet another round of tests. Thats the reason for this mail, if you have, or know of any complicated MIDI files, please send me private mail with either an attachment or a direct URL. Complicated here means "uses many different standard MIDI features" or "Uses unusual MIDI commands" or "Is larger than 300K" or "Is a type 2 file". -- Thanks, Mario

by Michael Iber

Hello administrators, hello list members, for my research for a lecture I will be holding on opensource and audio in October in Stuttgart the following informations would be very interesting: How many people are subscribed to the lau / lad -lists. How many participate actively ? Is it possible to roughly estimate, where they are from (Amerika, US, Asia, part of Europe, Germany). Is anybody capable of providing those informations? Thank you very much, Michael

by Carlo Capocasa

Well, it wouldn't be dead, but the Rebirth people legally made the author discontinue... Actually IMHO it's not the worst thing to happen for the freeware community, I sort of frown upon the practice of 'cloning' and enjoy genuinely new free apps a lot more... ZynAddSubFX comes to mind. Carlo
