[linux-audio-user] Linux-Music and making a living...

by Hector Centeno

Hello, Yesterday I was having a little of a debate with a good friend about the possibilities of Linux/open-source audio and music software in the music market. What are your opinions about this? Is someone there actually making money using Linux and/or open-source software? Is it possible to be competitive in a market full of musicians/composers using Win/Mac+proprietary software (Cubase, Reason, ProTools and friends)? Probably this has been addressed more than once previously, so sorry for insisting... I think I need some encouragement! Thank you! Hector.

[linux-audio-user] jack and portaudio

by Evgeniy

Hi, all. My program use portaudio API. All work fine, but when I tried to route audio stream to jack by using oss2jack, at the beginning it writes: Pa_SetupDeviceFormat: HW does not support 2 channels then, when program begin to using audio channel, it crash with following message: Pa_SetupDeviceFormat: HW does not support 2 channels PaHost_WatchDogProc: killing hung audio thread! Killed Does anybody know how to use portaudio and oss2jack, or other way to route portaudio based" audio stream to jack ? PS: I can't use jacklaunch because it writes jacklaunch: line 68: 1754 Killed at start

[linux-audio-user] Re: [Alsa-devel] hdspmixer defaults

by Orm Finnendahl

Hi Peter, I made similar experiences. Looks like a bug in hdspmixer. You can use a workaround by setting your defaults in a script using the amixer command and starting this script whenever alsa gets started and the modules loaded. See the section Matrix Mixer on this page for details how to use the amixer command with the hdsp: http://www.linuxjournal.com/node/7024/print -- Orm Am 19.

[linux-audio-user] ANN: LAM site

by Hans Fugal

I decided to learn RoR[1] and decided the world didn't need yet another homegrown blog program, so I wrote this: http://lam.fugal.net I populated it with my own meager offerings and imported the information from Rad IO[2] as well. Now I offer it out as a way to listen to LAM, and a place to post your own LAM for us all to listen to. What is it? It's simply a site to aggregate links to music made with linux (and open source software in general). RSS (podcast) and m3u are provided. No bothersome user accounts - it works like a wiki in that sense but is not a wiki, which will let it evolve into something more, based on your feedback. And if nobody likes it, well at least I learned Rails without writing a blog. ;-) 1. http://rubyonrails.com 2. http://opensrc.org/index.php?page=RadIO -- Hans Fugal | If more of us valued food and cheer and http://hans.fugal.net/ | song above hoarded gold, it would be a http://gdmxml.fugal.net/ | merrier world. | -- J.R.R.

[linux-audio-user] cs46xx mic recording

by Hans Fugal

My Turtle Beach Santa Cruz (cs46xx) card has a strange problem: mic recording in JACK is really distorted. Records fine (as fine as my cheap mic can) in Audacity. arecord sounds fine as well. When I record with TimeMachine in JACK, it sounds terribly distorted (maybe saturated is the word). Same mixer settings for all of the above. Has anyone else had luck recording with this card in JACK? -- Hans Fugal | If more of us valued food and cheer and http://hans.fugal.net/ | song above hoarded gold, it would be a http://gdmxml.fugal.net/ | merrier world. | -- J.R.R.

[linux-audio-user] 44.1, 48 or 96?

by Joseph Dell'Orfano

Hello all, I am looking for some engineering know-how and advice. Should I track at 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz or 96 kHz? I record vocals and acoustic guitar for the most part. I have been routinely recording at 24 bits, 96 kHz simply because I can and I assume that this gets me the highest fidelity from my recordings (tracking through AKG Solidtube or a pair of Oktava condensers and a Pendulum Audio SPS-1 preamp to Delta 1010LT into Jack/Ardour). After a discussion with a friend, I´m not so sure anymore. He is recording his album at 44.1 kHz, arguing that this will avoid downsampling when finally pressing a CD. So, are there any opinions about this? There is a very practical issue here. I am contemplating the addition of an outboard digital effects processor to take some load off my CPU. Most units (less than $1000) with s/pdif are 44.1 and 48 kHz, so they would not work (I don´t think) with digital audio recorded at 96 kHz. Thanks for all the help you've given me in the past. I hope I am not coming to the well too many times!! -Joe Dell'Orfano -- Joseph Dell'Orfano <fullgo(a)dellorfano.net>

[linux-audio-user] AMD64 stable?

by Arnold Krille

Hi all, I am thinking of buying a new notebook. While my hw-dealer tries to sell me a intel-based one, I figured I can get more CPU-Speed, double ram and 64 instead of 32bits if I take an amd64-based notebook (we are talking about the current series from asus). So my question is: Has anyone of you made positive or negative experience with amd64? Are there (audio-)apps that don't work on 64? Thanks in advance, Arnold -- visit http://dillenburg.dyndns.org/~arnold/ --- Wenn man mit Raubkopien Bands wie Brosis oder Britney Spears wirklich verhindern könnte, würde ich mir noch heute einen Stapel Brenner und einen Sack Rohlinge kaufen.

[linux-audio-user] E-Mu XBoard 25 or 49 supported?

by Sebastien Cevey

Hello! I browsed the list and noticed a couple of people were wondering if the E-Mu XBoard 25 or 49 [1] works with the standard usb-midi driver. Did anyone get that keyboard to work under GNU/Linux ? Would it require firmware uploads like the M-Audio devices, or could it work out-of-the-box? No matter how much I appreciate vkeybd, I'd love to buy some physical replacement to it :-) Thanks in advance!
