In case, try compiling soundtracker with that one. In case not, get an older version of gcc. --

[linux-audio-user] Re: recording jack input

If its too loud (or too quite), you edit the file in a sound-editor afterwards, without losing quality... (both timemachine and jack_capture use float format by default) Well, I guess it can be handy anyway to have that though. (It could actually be a useful extension for qjackctl...) --

[linux-audio-user] Complete Linux Audio System

by Folderol

I would like to buy (yes I did say buy) a reasonably complete Linux based music development/recording system. I really don't have either the time or skills to build this up myself, I barely have enough free time for my real interest - music. I've tried Rosegarden and like it very much so I guess this would be the heart of the system. It seems to be very popular. Beyond that, well does anyone know of a company or individual that puts these systems together? I think this has been mentioned before, but don't know if any real results were obtained. -- F

[linux-audio-user] ZOOM G2.u1 (generic usb audio device) and ALSA working for playback only

by Cesare Marilungo

Contrary to what I said in a previous post I can't get the capture part of this device to work (On the same setup in which my UA-25 works perfectly). Alsamixer shows just the playback and jack doesn't start with capture enabled. Some hint? Clemens? :-) Thanks in advance. c. p.s. Sent lsusb -v output as an attachment. This time gzipped. Sorry.

[linux-audio-user] music using buzz tracker on linux

by reuben

A few months back I posted to this list regarding running buzz tracker, which is an excellent piece of windows freeware, on linux. I put together a quick piece to demonstrate what it does; this isn't particularly complex musically, but I quite like it. Aside from the amen loop, which comes in @ approx 1:00, every sound is synthesized by buzz (the amen is provided by a machine which is dedicated to producing amen loops, so even that is not from an externally loaded sample.) The ogg and bmx (buzz tracker file) are both here: http://flavor8.com/index.php/2006/01/09/music-made-using-buzz-tracker/ As explained previously, unfortunately there will never be a port of the software to linux, as the developer lost the source code when his hard drive crashed(!). There are a huge number of machines (see buzzmachines.com) written to its API, so it would be highly advantageous to Linux audio if somebody were to write a client that could use them - hint, hint.

Nigel. I checked my BIOS, and I currently have it set to disable audio. The only other option is "auto", which I have no idea what it looks at to automatically do... whatever it does. I tried setting this option to auto, then booted into Linux. Everything still worked fine, but it could be detecting my other sound card and automatically disabled the onboard sound. Anything else I should try?

[linux-audio-user] Linuxsampler downloads?

by Brett McCoy

Anyone know if or when Linuxsampler will be available for download again? Seems their server crapped out a while back but doesn't seem to be back up yet. -- Brett

[linux-audio-user] anybody using seq24 for live performances?

by charles thorley

hey all. i'm considering picking up a cheap (new) laptop and running seq24 and a sampler on it, and slaving some outboard modules, for a live p.a. solution (as in dance/electronic/techno live production). it looks cool enough from the homepage, but i've found very little reference to it elsewhere on the net, and nothing that really addresses it's strengths and weaknesses in a live setting based on real-world experience. it looks like the guy that wrote it uses it for this, but he doesn't talk about it much on the site. alternatively, i might pick up an akai mpc1000 for my live sequencer - i definitely like gear, although i'm not bent on it. if i thought that seq24 could more or less do what it does, that's the route that i'd go down, methinks. i've got an rme hammerfall multiface, so i'm not concerned about getting sound out of it (although, recommendations for a laptop that would work with the hammerfall cardbus would also be most welcome). thanks much! - charles __________________________________________ Yahoo!

Re: [linux-audio-user] New music

by aljordan＠maine.rr.com

Hi James, I like the song, particularly the background ambiance. I just can't figure out how you could write such a happy riff in a sleep deprived, nightmare ridden state.

[linux-audio-user] PdPod (pure data on ipodlinux) - Is anybody else experimenting with it?

by Cesare Marilungo

If you're interested I wrote a post on my blog: http://www.cesaremarilungo.com/blog/2006/01/08/pdpod-pure-data-on-the-ipod-… Or you can visit the wiki page on ipodlinux.org: http://ipodlinux.org/PdPod I would really like to get in touch with people interested in this hack. Thanks, c. www.cesaremarilungo.com
