Hi Lee,
I've trying the commands in the vxloader directory
in the firmware directory
in the root directory
as root and as user
in several places
everything i've read talks about a vxloader utility
but on my setup vxloader is just a folder with driver files inside
peace

Hi there.
I have an interview with a lot of AC hum. I'd like to remove as much
of the hum as possible. This is not for broadcasting. I just want to
be able to hear what the persons on the recording are saying.
I've looked at the sound in a frequency spectrum analyzer[1]. The hum
looks just as consistent as it sounds so I guess there must be a way
to filter it out. I just don't know which linux tool will do it for
me.

http://flosspick.org - finding the right open source
Firstly thanks to Asbjørn, Lee, Tim and others who have given me advice
so far.
I tried using Asbjørn's vanilla kernel but it didn't work as our laptops
are different, but your config settings were a good guide.
I downloaded the source package for 2.6.16
I did make oldconfig, to use the config already working on my machine
(just without the VXpocket support), I tried compiling the kernel as per
the instructions on the Demudi page
<http://demudi.agnula.org/wiki/Low-latencyKernelBuildingHowto>, and by
referencing Asbjørn's config settings
Lee had written that CONFIG_ISAPNP must be enabled, but this wasn't an
option that I could choose in menuconfig, there was just a hyphen beside
this option, also this wasn't enabled in Asbjørn's settings which
reportedly works.
but got this error message on reboot
Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)
I assume this means I didn't have the exact settings configured for my laptop.
So then I put the result of lspci -v into http://kmuto.jp/debian/hcl/

and it requires the intel-agp driver, which reportedly works
80863340 Yes Intel Corporation 82855PM Processor to I/O Controller
intel-agp
in the Configuration Archive I couldn't find any kernel on any architecture where this can be enabled.
Anyway then I tried to rebuild the package with initrd, as I got the impression from the Demudi page that though building a fatter kernel,
at least my machine would reboot
unfortunately this couldn't be built because yaird, or intramfs-tools or linux-intramafs-tool were not previously installed,
and I don't seem to be able to install them, either with apt-get or synaptic, as some list is locked/unlocked
so a few questions - can I salvage things at this point or do I have to start over from a fresh install?
what did I do wrong and how can avoid similar problems happening again?
am I going about this the right way, should i be using initrd?
I hadn't got around to installing the VXpocket firmware - though I don't think this was the problem,
when booting into the new kernel Alsa couldn't find the soundcard, though I assume it would be solved after the firmware was installed.
As much as I enjoy re-compiling and re-installing over and over again, I rather be making some music - thanks in advance

So I'm looking into using seq24 as my midi sequencer (Rosegarden is
slow as all hell, as well as bloated for my tastes, and MusE seems to
have problems on my system).
I'm fairly sure that I made some use of it when I first installed it,
however, I've tried using it with qsynth over the last few days and I
just can't seem to be able to connect the two at all. I'm rather
concerned that seq24 doesn't seem to have any ports/clients listed in
qjackctl's midi section.
I can connect seq24 to busses and channels from inside seq24, but that
doesn't seem to have any effect. The problem doesn't seem to lie with
qsynth as I've been able to connect a software keyboard to it no
problem.
Has anyone else experienced this at all and can offer some advice on
the subject?
Cheers!

User request here! I absolutely LOVE ZynAddSubFX and I haven't found any
oscillators, filters, harmonics generators etc. that sound nearly as
good. The sounds are simply so natural. Now what I'd like to do is hook
up all these things in a modular way.
You're looking for a new project to tie your name infinitely to the
world audio and enjoy all the privileges of the natural way of the
coder. You also have a good ear for fineness.
Great! You code. I'll test. The result is a wonderful set of LV2 (new
ladspa) plugins that are all the building blocks ZynAddSubFX is made of.
They are called ZynAddSubFX LowPass2 Filter etc. to honor the genius of
its author.

Hi folks,
I'm close now to getting some hardware, so I have more precise
questions before I hit one of the music stores. I'd like ot have to
suggestions/comments concerning a setup for doing what I'd liek to do.
And that is: being able to input sequencer data using three different
approaches: percussion, guitar and keyboard. For the sound sources,
I'm presently partial to hardware synths/samplers. Although I've got
some good sounds in the past (using soundfonts and a Live ! card and
MuSE) I still feel that the best sounds are from actual hardware synths
and samplers. I'd like to have some feedback on this. Are 'software'
sounds really that good when compared to actual hardware synths ? What
about samplers ? Are there any pro or semi-pro hardware synth and
sampler cards for the PC that could turn a PC (with an additional
external MIDI keyboard) into such a beast as these Korg (or
others') workstations ?
First of all I do not yet have a sound card for the AMD64 MSI K8N
Neo4 board I have (4GB RAM and lots of disk space). So far I see these
Hammerfall and M-Audio series.
I'd also like to get accoustic input from accoustic guitars, flutes,
and possibly voices/vocals.
And then there's the playback using good speakers.
And then there's the MIDI input when more than one MIDI instrument is
used at the same time. Surely there must be a patch bay of some sorts.
And there are the special effects, of which reverb would be mandatory
to start with.
So, if I choose the hardware sounds, I'll have to get some kind of
external mixer for the line outs of the synths and mikes, isn't it ?
What does Ardour mixes after all ? Can it control some kind of
hardware mixers of which the knobs were removed (cheaper price ?) so to
speak ?
Thanks a lot for any comments !
Cheers,
Al
Is there a tool that will allow me to directly edit mp3 files (i.e. without
decompressing them first)? I remember that I used to use a program that would
do that in mac os 9.
There are a couple of situations in which I need to crop or chop up very long
audio recordings and where precision is not important, but the time it takes
for the various audio editors to read or write huge uncompressed wav files,
as well as to compress the edited files, is a real problem.
For instance I sometimes collect sonic doodles on a dictaphone, which means
that I need to be able to sample an entire side of the tape, go through it
very quickly and save the interesting bits for future reference. I don't want
to spend hours doing this.
I'm not at all bothered whether I use mp3, ogg or something else as the
compressed format. If there is something simple that might work under wine I
would happily give that a go.
Many thanks
Robert

Conspiracy Bears:
Once upon a time there were lots of conspiracy bears...
Hi.
I released today the second version of the
extreme-time-stretching software.
It's here:
http://hypermammut.sourceforge.net/src/paulstretch/
News:
- Added a graphical user interface (requires
wxWidgets). Now you can control the FFT size (buffer
size) too. Also, you can use this program as a very
interesting effect if you make FFT size large (even if
the stretch parameter is close to 1)
- Added Ogg Vorbis support for output (requires ogg
vorbis libraries)
- Added an "optimize" option to the FFT size to make
it power of 2 or 3 for speedups (afaik the fftw
library is optimised for these kinds of buffers). The
disavantage is that the stretch value is now quantised
(if you don't like this, you can disable the optimize
checkbox).
P.S. For now, there is no available resource checking
(I mean if your disk is full or the buffer size is too
large, the program will crash)
Paul
