I just installed Ubuntu Dapper Drake. I am trying to hear previews
browsing the Freesound web page using the bundled Firefox, but
nothing's heard. It works fine here on W2K with Mozilla.
ALSA works fine. I can download the samples and play them using aplay.
Anything else needs to be installed or set up?
Cordially, Ismael

What's up guys!
Looking for a good MIDI drummer to make some Free music. I've got
seperate revenue streams set up so expect a percentage. If we work out
we end up playing huge gigs together. Distribution here:

For a reference, I wanna do stuff that's inspired by stuff like Zapp &
Roger, check 'Heartbreaker'.

PS: Oh yeah, I'll probably play an electric mandolin hooked up to
ZynAddSubFX bass sounds.

I'm very excited to see you have decided to take over maintaining
Specimen. Thanks for taking it on. It's a very worthy program to keep alive.
Thanks,

Hi,
here's two patches, one for jack-rack-1.4.4 and one for the last
specimen-devel tarball. jack-rack gets updated from ladcca to lash
[which is basically a search and replace opertion] and has an xrun
producing bug on shutdown fixed. specimen just gets a first version of
lash support.
Both patches are to be applied _after_ running configure as i have no
idea on how to integrate the stuff into autotools (the tools of the
devil). For specimen Peter Shorthose actually did update the
configure.ac and sent me a patch for it, but on my box running
./bootstrap gives me an unusable configure script and consequently
makefile. Anyways, here it is [You still need the specimen patch below,
this one just updates configure.ac]:
http://www.zenadsl6252.zen.co.uk/configure.ac_lash.patch
The jack patch needs to be run from the toplevel source dir with -p0 and
the specimen patch from the src/ subdir of the srctree [with -p0, too].
Find them here:
http://affenbande.org/~tapas/jack-rack-lash-shutdown2.diffhttp://affenbande.org/~tapas/specimen_lash.diff
Have fun
Flo
P.S.: Anyone heard anything from Leslie Polzer [the new jack-rack
maintainer]. I didn't get any answer from him. Also, did anyone take
over specimen maintenance? Who is the new maintainer?

hi all...
this is fst-1.8.
loads vst instruments... and makes them a jack client.
you need to have lash installed to build it.
download is at:
http://galan.sf.net/fst-1.8.tar.gz
webpage is at:
http://www.joebutton.co.uk/fst
*** IMPORTANT ***
there seems to be a "BUG" in wine, which prevents simultaneous startup
of fst instances. (this happens on lash project restore)
to circumvent this you need to have a persistent wineserver running.
so just start "wineserver -p" before reloading a lash project.
i hope to be able to fine a better workaround soon. So expect this in
fst-1.8.1 which will also have complete vst state restore.
currently only the parameters are restored. But this is a good start.
please report back on wine version usage...
and yes... many vsts NEED a lashing ;)

hey there crew....
just wondering if there is anyone that has had experience with bad
midi time. i am using alsa midi to link muse and PD together to build
a sampler. after much frustration and testing i have come to the
conclusion that both muse and seq are out of time on my gentoo
machine. i am getting random variations of about 40ms.
i have no idea why this is happing, could somebody suggest a possible
solution or cause for this....
thanks

Sorry, my haste got the better of me last time :)
Do the left minus right operation first. This way you'll end up with what
Ismael told you: ths "karaoke" signal with all components common to l/r removed.
To get the reverse (only the common components), you need to remove the
karaoke signal from a mono version of the original signal. I'm not sure how
well this will work.. Tell us if you decide to try! ;)

Reverse polarity on either channel (left or right, it doesn't matter) and
then do a LEFT-RIGHT and you'll end up with the signal that Ismael's
technique removed.

Actually, it is possible to isolate something in a precise point of the stereo
field, and separate it out - have a look at:

and check out the audio examples, they are worth a listen,
