[linux-audio-user] Strings and Choirs

by Markus Herhoffer

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Normally I use my linux machine only for recording and mixing. But now I need some realistic strings, church organs and choirs. Are there any well sounding free samples available? Or are there some free samplers out there that play commercial samples? How are your experiences with symphonic arrangements under linux?

[linux-audio-user] irq priority setting script

by Emanuel Rumpf

hi LAUs, I've written a little python script, that may be usefull for you as well. It tries to get the pid's of soundcards irq's etc. and set's their scheduling priorities in order to improve latency performance. More info here: http://branwelt.de/projects/rt-script/ The script was quickly written and likely is not done the best possible way, but it's working (on my debian system at least, usb-card) please give some feedback, if it worked for you as well, (check if the pid's where detected correctly) (maybe + a small system-info: snd-card, distribution, kernel) If the script worked with most systems, it would be a nice idea to auto-run it after the booting-process in audio-distros (if such a thing isn't done already) Emanuel

[linux-audio-user] Issues with fst and vst zombification

by Josh Lawrence

Hello list, I need some help with fst. I've installed Wine and fst per the instructions, and some vst instruments run just fine. Others, like MrRay73 and OrganizedTrio, zombify immediately when they are started. fst only reports that the plugin has zombified, and disconnects from jack. Is there anything I can do to troubleshoot this? Does fst keep a log somewhere that I can check for the specific reasons why a plugin zombifies? If there are build options for fst that will direct it to be more verbose, that would be fine too. -- Josh Lawrence http://www.hardbop200.com

However I would absolutely love if I could use this packaged rosegarden on my ubuntu breezy! The one I have installed at the moment is from musix, but the lates at that repository is 1.0.1-1(which works great by the way.) Is 1.2.3 available as deb somewhere? Best regards Ketil

[linux-audio-user] Automatic Double-Ender (Was: Re: Skype and LAU)

by Dan Easley

On the subject of VoIP & Linux Audio programs, i've just had a thought. Should there exist a robust JACK-compatible VoIP system, a good next step would be to create a script facilitating 'double-enders' as used in broadcasting. A double-ender avoids the low-quality phone sound in an interview where the participants are in different locations: two (or more) people chat on a phone while also recording themselves (typically on something high quality, portable, and entrenched in the industry, like a DAT/MD) - the interviewee's DAT/etc. is then mailed to the producer/interviewer, who edits it together with the recording of his questions. I'd think it would be fairly easy to set up a shell/python script or the like to start the VoIP program and timemachine (or the like), route the interviewee's audio to both, and automatically send the recording to the producer after the call is completed. An extension of this is: rather than a producer needing to hire a freelancer local to the interviewee to trudge over with a recorder, the producer could simply send the interviewee a live cd tailored to the purpose. this might be limited by ease of network/audio setup for the layperson, though this in turn could be fixed if low-latency audio could break the blood-brain barrier of virtual machines. and, at this point, i've gone too far in my late morning coffee-fueled rantings and machinations, and i thank you for the opportunity. -- daneasley(a)gmail.com dan(a)towndowner.com dan(a)burntpossum.com http://towndowner.com http://burntpossum.com

[linux-audio-user] Snd enhancements

by pete thomas

Hi, I'm a new Linux/Snd user trying to run Dave Phillips Snd enhancements (misc.scm). The enhanced Snd runs for a bit and then exits with: X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attribute) Major Opcode of failed request: 1 (X_CreateWindow) Snd (7.16, from PlanetCCRMA) works without the enhancements (except under jack for recording, which is for another post). Thanks, pete thomas

Re: [linux-audio-user] A couple of questions

by carmen

> if it really is Gnome dependent, I insist in my thesis that > configuration tools should be distro and desktop independent im willing to guess these days more (especially new) users on a % basis have gnome-libs installed than the ncurses that alsaconf uses.. maybe alsa could provide some kind of uniform device-selection widget for GTK, so that there isnt a different one with different features in each app..i mean 2/3rs of them still have a txt entry box and expect you to know what hw:0,1,0 is.. something with a 'select for this app' and 'set as default' maybe.. i would say 'like how printing works'. but dont get me started on cups/foomatic/hpiod/samba/lib(gnome/kde)print etc..
