Fellow Linux audio maniacs,
Been lurking around for a few months. Figured I'd finally introduce
myself.
I was wondering how you guys are set-up when you use LinuxSampler. Do
you have a dedicated machine, run everything on the same turbocharged
state-of-the-art box, or whatever?
As for myself I run LinuxSampler standalone, controlled via MIDI from my
ancient Atari 1040ST. I then capture the output with Qarecord. I then
dump the tracks into Ardour to record other instruments. Kind of a
roundabout way, but my machine is getting old. I'm looking to build a
new one and I'd love to hear your ideas concerning a future set-up.

Here is a trancy space type song I made using Ardour,
Jamin, Hydrogen, LADSPA plugins and ReZound (Audacity
has been hardlocking my Demudi 1.2.1 system lately for
some reason).
It uses 5 audio samples from the public domain and
several tracks recorded from a Roland JV-80 keysynth
and a Roland JP-8000 keysynth. Special Guests are my
next door neighbor assisting on the JP-8000 tracks and
a coworker who recorded "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star"
on a Fender Rhodes VSTi some time ago.
I'm a member of sectionz.com but really have no idea
how hard it is for a "guest" to download my tracks
from there. Anyway, the link follows...

Someone please tell me if that works ok for downloads
or do I have to do something different?
Thanks!

Hy everyone!
Some years ago I did a little melody which I like very much. Well, it
seems that I'm not an inspired guy :-), so I couldn't try to make
something more from it.
You can download it in [1]. Be warned: it's not a great thing, but
perhaps some of you can finish what I've started :-)

Hi, list
Sometime ago (May) I asked about realtime under SUSE 9.3, and received the
following advice from Rui (for which I am grateful). When it actually came
down to it, I bottled out so never followed this through, opting to run all
the applications I needed as root.
"The way to go is installing kernel-source package and apply the
realtime-lsm patch to the kernel source tree.
"Just (re)build and install the patched kernel, but take special care to
set the following, while on kernel configuration:
CONFIG_SECURITY_CAPABILITIES=N
CONFIG_SECURITY_REALTIME=M "
I'm a bit worried about mucking up my system (also used for general purpose
computing), and I was hoping someone could give me some further advice:
If I patch and reconfigure the kernel source, is that likely to break
future compilation using the default kernel?
Is it possible to copy the contents of /usr/src/linux-2.6.11.4-21.9/
to another location (something like /usr/src/linux-2.6.11.4-21.9-rt)
and apply the patch and compile there, or is it better just to patch
the suse source directly, accessing it via the /usr/src/linux symlink?
Also I noticed there's a directory called /usr/src/linux-2.6.11.4-21.9-obj
Do patches automatically change the kernel identifier so that when I do
a make modules_install it will create a new directory instead of copying
them over the modules from the running kernel? Is there a way to make
sure it does?
Is it OK to manually copy the vmlinuz and system.map file into /boot
with a name appropriate to the kernel version?
Is it good practice to reference kernels directly in the GRUB menu.lst
by their real names rather than the symlink (when presenting the option
to boot more then one)?
I'm really sorry for the basic questions - I'm still a relative newbie to
Linux. I've thought about trying out a dedicated multimedia distro, but
really comfortable with SuSE now.
Thanks in advance

whew!
thanks for all the great responses!
i guess i should reign my question in just a bit..
i would like to know if there are any distros to avoid, as they are
known to have problems with linux..
i am really good with the redhat type distros and the fedora distros,
and there would be no learning curve in getting those set up ...
so i thought it might be a good idea to stick with one of those...
are there any known problems with this?
most notably, fc4..
thanks!

Hello List.
I struggled the last night and some hours today to get the realtime
thing working. I finally succeeded in building a patched pam package
for Debian unstable and it seems to be working now.
I put the package as well as some notes at
http://alsa.opensrc.org/RealtimeKernelAndPAM.
I hope it helps others to get this working more quickly. If I made
some mistakes or so, please let me know.

i have been currently setting up my gig on a machine that also
doubles as a web server and mp3 server and a million other things..
it is running fc3..
i have another windows machine that is a lot more hardware capable
than the server, and i realized that is has not even been booted up
in 8 months.
i am figuring on i am going to install linux on that machine and use
that for my music station instead.. it also has a DVI output, so i
can hook up a flat screen..
anyway..
does anyone have any suggestions as to what distro to throw on it?
i have been using slackware since the beginning. moved to redhat..
now running fedora...
i don't have a whole lot of other distro experience outside of that.
thanks for any advice!
