[linux-audio-user] More on snd-mpu401 modprobe problems on newer kernels

by David Baron

Not just pnp=no. I must use modprobe -i. This would seem to indicate a problem in alsa pre/post install scripts. Maybe I should just comment out the line for mpu401?

[linux-audio-user] LMMS on Musix 0.3.1

by Sean Edwards

Does anybody have LMMS working in Musix 0.3.1? I have problems with no sound, and sometimes LMMS just hangs and doesn't respond. -=cybersean3000=- __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com

If you I have a "home bedroom" studio with wierd acoustics, which makes it very difficult to get accurate sound, even from the highest quality studio monitors. So I use a set of high-quality headphones to do my mixes. It is much easier to get high-quality, accurate sound from a smaller transducer closer to the ear, rather than having your speakers moving a lot of air through a longer distance. It's also a lot cheaper... :-) -Tim

[linux-audio-user] Graphics card an realtime performance

by Gerrit Niestijl

Hi all, Could a better graphics card result in better realtime performance? I can get a good realtime performance on my box (buffersize 64 and less) but when using X some display activity seems to cause xruns. E.g sooperlooper is far more usable without it's gui. This is on a pentium3 600Mhz PC, running gentoo kernel 2.6.14 with rt22 patch applied. I also prioritize the irq's as documented on this list. The graphics card is a Nvidia Vanta LT with 16 Mb memory. Any thoughts? -- regards, gerrit

[linux-audio-user] Alsa fails at boot, but not after manual alsaconf

by Bernhard Kleine

Hallo, I amm on a debian sarge gnome desktop. I have an on-board sis/ac97 chip. This week I downloaded kernel 2.6.15.1 and installed sound etc. as modules since I wanted to include a webcam. Sound has not been tested before. When booting the new kernel, alsa sound seems to be enabled since the modules are loaded. However, when I try e.g. xmms than I get the message (translated by myself) please check that the soundcard is installed properly, that the correct plug-ins are chosen, and that no other program blocks sound. The situation is bizarre: When I shutdown gnome and move to the terminal and run alsaconf, the card is found and enabled. After restarting gnome sound works, no program blocks the card. This demonstrates that things are properly installed, modules available, permissions granted etc. What do I have to do to make sound start correctly at boottime? The alsa settings should be saved during shutdown and reloaded at boottime. How can I control that the correct alsa settings are loaded, what file is the relevant one? I am working with the original debian sarge versions (as of juli 2005). Included is the lsmod output after booting Any help is very much appreciated Any help is appreciated Bernhard Syslog shows : ALSA sound/core/init.c:132: cannot find the slot for index 0 (range 0-0) lspci: lspci 0000:00:00.0 Host bridge: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 746 Host (rev 02) 0000:00:01.0 PCI bridge: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] SG86C202 0000:00:02.0 ISA bridge: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] SiS963 [MuTIOL Media IO] (rev 25) 0000:00:02.1 SMBus: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS]: Unknown device 0016 0000:00:02.5 IDE interface: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 5513 [IDE] 0000:00:02.7 Multimedia audio controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] Sound Controller (rev a0) 0000:00:03.0 USB Controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] USB 1.0 Controller (rev 0f) 0000:00:03.1 USB Controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] USB 1.0 Controller (rev 0f) 0000:00:03.2 USB Controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] USB 2.0 Controller 0000:00:0a.0 SCSI storage controller: Adaptec AHA-2940/2940W / AIC-7871 0000:00:0b.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corp. 82557/8/9 [Ethernet Pro 100] (rev 0c) 0000:00:0c.0 Network controller: AVM Audiovisuelles MKTG & Computer System GmbH Fritz!PCI v2.0 ISDN (rev 01) 0000:01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon RV100 QY [Radeon 7000/VE] lsmod: lsmod Module Size Used by ppp_deflate 6656 0 zlib_deflate 20504 1 ppp_deflate bsd_comp 6400 0 ppp_synctty 9984 0 radeon 110624 2 binfmt_misc 11784 1 ehci_hcd 33288 0 snd_intel8x0 34844 0 snd_ac97_codec 98208 1 snd_intel8x0 snd_ac97_bus 2560 1 snd_ac97_codec i2c_sis96x 6788 0 sn9c102 95244 0 videodev 9600 1 sn9c102 v4l2_common 8064 1 sn9c102 snd_usb_audio 84544 1 snd_pcm 100744 3 snd_intel8x0,snd_ac97_codec,snd_usb_audio snd_timer 26500 1 snd_pcm snd_page_alloc 11912 2 snd_intel8x0,snd_pcm snd_usb_lib 18176 1 snd_usb_audio snd_rawmidi 27168 1 snd_usb_lib snd_seq_device 9484 1 snd_rawmidi snd_hwdep 10628 1 snd_usb_audio snd 60516 11 snd_intel8x0,snd_ac97_codec,snd_usb_audio,snd_pcm,snd_timer,snd_usb_lib,snd_rawmidi,snd_seq_device,snd_hwdep soundcore 10208 1 snd ohci_hcd 20996 0 usbcore 134020 6 ehci_hcd,sn9c102,snd_usb_audio,snd_usb_lib,ohci_hcd

[linux-audio-user] Learning to use a tracker

by jjbenham＠chicagoguitar.com

I am sorry for the stupid question but I am interested in learning to use a tracker. I have heard music created with such software and I think it sounds pretty cool. I have never used a tracker before so I don't care if it is a good tracker. I just want to learn a tracker that is well documented for the tracker newbee. Later I may a use a better tracker but I am looking for one to use that is the most well documented at the moment. How different is seq24 from a tracker? i have used it and very much like it. I am also a csound junkie so I kind of want something that I can intergrate with csounds somehow. Didn't someone build a tracker interface to csounds or something once? I want the tracker to really give me ideas for things to do in csound. I like the sounds and ideas James comes up with using cheesetracker. I don't know how to get started using it though. I installed it and am scratching my head over how to get started with it. I tried freewheeling recording my csounds output from jack. That was alot of fun. I was looping extremely small samples and allowing them to clip creating really grungy sounds and controlling the notes on my external midi keyboard. So can anyone suggest a tracker that is well document and possibly anouther that has cool features that fit the kind of things that I like to do. Jeremiah

by Reuben Martin

I just found out about this site from reading a blog... This guys takes requests to write songs and then posts them on the Internet. He releases one every couple of days, and they're pretty good! There are hundreds. All kinds of generas, stuff that rocks, the weird, the funny, it's all there. And the guy is only 21! Definately something people on this list would want to check out when they have the time. http://songstowearpantsto.com/ -Reuben
