[linux-audio-user] firmware loader help please

by Hamish Low

i need to load the firmware onto my digigram VXpocket V2 soundcard. http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/doc-php/template.php?company=Digigram&… <http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/doc-php/template.php?company=Digigram&…> ./configure returns "no such file or directory" make install says install is an incorrect target I have loads of packages already installed make, etc after a massive detour into recompiling kernels etc & everything else seems to be configured correctly hopefully all i need to do is load the firmware though i can find nothing online about why this isn't working for me what packages do i need to do this, if I don't have them already? what else do i need to know? in retrospect I think I've come to linux audio a year or two before it's ready for me unless it's just my bad luck for having bought a Quattro then trading it for a Digigram card thanks again for tirelessly answering my trivial questions hamish Send instant messages to your online friends http://au.messenger.yahoo.com

[linux-audio-user] wine error using jack_fst-1.2 and fst-1.6

by Benjamin Fabricius

Hi, Got a good deal of work done for my madi vst server with embedded linux. Tried wine20040505 and ran into some rather nasty errors. Did not spend a lot of time on this version then. Next I tried wine20050628 according to Gimpel's tutorial page. Got that compiled and running for my host. Then compiled fst-1.6 (and fst-1.7 but have not tried that yet) and jack-fst-1.2. After altering the Makefiles I got them compiled and running on the vst server. Then downloaded the Oberon-8 vsti. Now I get a wine error of the following sort: [snip] vst:/mnt/testsuite/oberon8 # jack_fst Oberon-8 (jack_fst:944): Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported by Xlib (jack_fst:944): Gdk-WARNING **: cannot set locale modifiers (jack_fst:944): Gdk-WARNING **: Error converting from UTF-8 to STRING: Conversion from character set 'UTF-8' to 'ISO-8859-1' is not supported (jack_fst:944): Gdk-WARNING **: Error converting from UTF-8 to STRING: Conversion from character set 'UTF-8' to 'ISO-8859-1' is not supported wine: Unhandled exception (thread 0009), starting debugger... err:seh:EXC_DefaultHandling Unhandled exception code c0000005 flags 0 addr 0xb7597545 err:seh:EXC_DefaultHandling Unhandled exception code c0000005 flags 0 addr 0xb7604e1f err:seh:EXC_DefaultHandling Unhandled exception code c0000005 flags 0 addr 0xb7604e1f err:seh:EXC_DefaultHandling Unhandled exception code c0000005 flags 0 addr 0xb7604e1f err:seh:EXC_DefaultHandling Unhandled exception code c0000005 flags 0 addr 0xb7604e1f err:seh:EXC_DefaultHandling Unhandled exception code c0000005 flags 0 addr 0xb7604e1f err:seh:EXC_DefaultHandling Unhandled exception code c0000005 flags 0 addr 0xb7604e1f err:seh:EXC_DefaultHandling Unhandled exception code c0000005 flags 0 addr 0xb7604e1f ...and so on... [snip] I expect the gdk warning not to be critical... Have any of you experienced similar problems? Or might it be better to use a different wine version? Have not tried fst-1.7 yet because the README says there should be a executable called jfst or xfst and plugins can be loaded using ./fst /path/to/plugin. fst-1.7 builds to a shared library called libfst.exe.so....? Is this correct? I actually expected that fst-1.7 builds to a current version of libfst.so... can anyone brief me on what's up here? Any help would be great!

[linux-audio-user] Om on DeMuDi unstable?

by Joseph Jones

Does anyone have any hints as to getting Om to install on DeMuDi unstable? I upgraded to get seq24 and a few other things, but now I get conflicts and dependancy problems with my rpeo for Om. I'm working myself up to the possibility of compiling from source, but I just wondered whether anyone had any advice before I head down that route.

[linux-audio-user] [Music] First track – prog rock instrumental

by Q

Hi everyone *gulp* Here goes... Finally everyone is happy with this. It's a prog(ish) rock instrumental called "Laetoli (a fragment of a track)". Ogg-5 (6.47 MB) http://www.spitfireq.f2s.com/music/Laetoli_%28a_fragment_of_a_track%29_ogg5… Ogg-10 (18.6 MB) http://www.spitfireq.f2s.com/music/Laetoli_%28a_fragment_of_a_track%29.ogg Flac (35.4 MB) http://www.spitfireq.f2s.com/music/Laetoli_%28a_fragment_of_a_track%29.flac Two or three of the wavs were recorded under Windows, shortly before I discovered DeMuDi. Everything else has been recorded, mixed etc under Linux. It was, perhaps, not the easiest choice for the first piece to record – it's been a steep learning curve, not only making the transition from Windows to Linux but also learning music software and DAW recording from scratch. It has been fun though and made easier by all the useful information and help and advice on the lists and elsewhere. It might have been finished sooner had the guitarist not bought a new axe partway through and insisted on re-recording a load of parts ;-) Hope you like it, feedback welcome. Q

[linux-audio-user] Sounds for Linux software synths

by Ismael Valladolid Torres

Maybe any newcomer to this world of Linux sofware synths won't think that there isn't a lot of nice programs available, but instead will note a big lack of sounds with which to feed those programs. As an example, only Worra's Place is listed in Linux sampler web site as a place where to get .gig files. And I definitely think that this site is, at least, "ugly". Isn't it there any other source of free/CC/GPL'ed sounds in .gig format? Also for fluidsynth. It supports soundfonts but, where to get free top-quality sounds in this format? Yes, there's Hammer Sound, but there I've never found nothing more, let's say, sophisticated than good GM programs. Shouldn't it be the way to go for us to drown into Freesound and create and share free stuff? What to use meanwhile? Let's suppose the way to go is to buy commercial sounds. Would you go for .sf2 or for .gig files? Which one, fluidsynth or linuxsampler do a better job rendering synth-like sounds?

[linux-audio-user] NoteEdit 2.8.1 Release Candidate

by Reinhard

Hi, The NoteEdit team just published the Release Candidate of 2.8.1. You can download it from http://prdownload.berlios.de/noteedit/noteedit-2.8.1-rc.tar.gz. There have been many changes during the beta phase, not only bugfixes but also several smaller improvements even to the user interface itself. We plan to publish the release on June 5 so the translators still have time to adapt their translations. Among others we added Portugese and Japanese translations. Also the "highlight" feature preview and print has now been reported to work on several systems. See the ChangeLog for all changes since the beta release. Best, Reinhard -- Software-Engineer, Developer of User Interfaces Project: Canorus - the next generation music score editor - http://canorus.berlios.de GnuPG Public Key available on request

[linux-audio-user] Extreme time-stretching sofware (was How can I time-stretch the sound like this ?)

by Paul

Hi. I rewrote the experimental time-stretching software (but is still experimental now, too :) ) and I put it here: http://hypermammut.sourceforge.net/src/paulstretch/ Please listen to audio examples here (with 20x stretching): http://hypermammut.sourceforge.net/src/paulstretch/example/ The algorithm is simple and it's described into the readme.txt from the archive. There is room for improovements to avoid over-smoothing (I wrote in readme.txt how I think that is possible to do). Please tell me your opinion about it.

[linux-audio-user] DnB/Jungle tunes

by Patrick Shirkey

Hi, Is anyone round here making DnB/Jungle? I have an opportunity to promote this style with a fairly well known DJ/Producer. He is also interested in finding new acts to release on his label. If not is anyone here interested in collaborating with me on some new tunes. I have a few that could be made better with a second or third influence. The event is not until August so that gives 3 months to get a few tracks nailed to the wall. Cheers. -- Patrick Shirkey - Boost Hardware Ltd.
