When I compile Zyn... form source one annoying feature is the menus that disappear as soon as you lift your finger off the mouse. I had thought that this must just be a feature of the fltk toolkit used. However, the version of Zyn on the Musix 0.50 disk has 'proper' menus that stay up till you click on something. Anyone know how this has been achieved? Is it just a simple patch I can add to the source files? (he said hopefully) -- Will J G

[linux-audio-user] capture line in (stereo) thru jack

by francisco echeverria

hi list: i'm having some questions: I have a sbpci128 working under ubuntu dapper with no probs until i tried to record via jackit a stereo signal from an external mixer connected to line in at my soundcard, at this point i can see that capture port 2 at jack's control connection window is not sending any signal, i am able to record only a mono signal (L). strangely, when i set the ubuntu mixer to listen line-in directly, i can hear both channels, but when i setup to capture with jack i can only hear/record left one. /proc/asound/pcm: 00-00: ES1371/1 : ES1371 DAC2/ADC : playback 1 : capture 1 00-01: ES1371/2 : ES1371 DAC1 : playback 1 Qjackctl messages window: 15:38:33.869 /usr/bin/jackd -R -p256 -dalsa -r48000 -p128 -n4 -D -Chw:0 -Phw:0 -S -i2 -o2 15:38:33.890 JACK was started with PID=5969 (0x1751). jackd 0.100.0 Copyright 2001-2005 Paul Davis and others. jackd comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it under certain conditions; see the file COPYING for details JACK compiled with System V SHM support. loading driver .. apparent rate = 48000 creating alsa driver ... hw:0|hw:0|128|4|48000|2|2|nomon|swmeter|-|16bit control device hw:0 configuring for 48000Hz, period = 128 frames, buffer = 4 periods nperiods = 4 for capture nperiods = 4 for playback So, my question is: Is there something that i can do or it is due to a hardware limitation/failure??

by Jonne Zutt

Hi all, Recently, I've bought an Acer Aspire 1640Z (configuration 1642ZWLMi) notebook and I am not able to get sound working. I posted my configuration here: http://dutiih.st.ewi.tudelft.nl/~jonne/wiki/home/index.php?n=Main.AcerAspir… I would be glad to hear if anybody got it working (with alsa or something else) on Linux. Thanks, JeeBee.

[linux-audio-user] [FST] NI Electronic Instruments 2 crashing

Hi, I installed Electronic Instruments 2 (wich is available as trail version) using wine. After starting it with fst the gui shows up.

[linux-audio-user] version BruteFIR package in PlanetCCRMA?

by Marije Baalman

Hi, can anyone tell me which version of BruteFIR is packaged in PlanetCCRMA? I can't tell from the website, and I'm trying to give a user on Fedora some support to use swonder, which needs at least version 1.0c. Any pointers to other rpm-packages for brutefir which he could install are also welcome... sincerely, Marije

[linux-audio-user] Analog mixers with USB connection

by Ismael Valladolid Torres

As far as I understand, at least a stereo bus is converted to digital and routed through the USB connection, apparently making very easy to select signals for recording. Any comments about whether they're usable with Linux and regarding the audio quality they offer?

[linux-audio-user] Music

by Steve D

Hello all-- It feels good to finally get back to composing and recording a little. I've been working on an old piece I never finished. The draft audio files are here: Blues in C 1 OGG http://www.xscd.com/pub/music/audio/ogg/stephen-doonan_blues-in-c-1.ogg MP3 http://www.xscd.com/pub/music/audio/mp3/stephen-doonan_blues-in-c-1.mp3 Usually I record the audio directly into Ardour or Audacity, but this time I recorded the MIDI performance instead, into Rosegarden (I also like Muse very much), then played back the slightly cleaned up MIDI file and recorded the audio produced by the tone generator (a rack-mounted Roland Fantom XR) that was being "played" by the MIDI file, which is here: Blues in C 1, MIDI (standard MIDI file type 1) http://www.xscd.com/pub/music/midi/stephen-doonan_blues-in-c-1_version-2.mid A much older version of Blues in C 1, MIDI file: http://www.xscd.com/pub/music/midi/stephen-doonan_blues-in-c-1_version-1.mid My Blues in C 2, a more recent composition that I finished and recorded before finishing Blues in C 1: http://www.xscd.com/pub/music/audio/ogg/stephen-doonan_blues-in-c-2.ogg http://www.xscd.com/pub/music/audio/mp3/stephen-doonan_blues-in-c-2.mp3 Both of these "blues in C major" were created with one original idea: to take a standard, bare-bones, dirt-simple blues progression in C (tonic/subdominant/dominant "1, 4, 5" song) and try to do something "interesting" with it, but retaining the essential skeleton of the blues in C major. In Blues in C 1, I aimed for putting in a different "passing chord" for every beat of every bar, only briefly landing on C, F and G at their mandatory times. For Blues in C 2, the more recent composition but the first to be completed and recorded, the idea and intent remained the same, but the technique I used was to have a bass line that shifted all around the C, F and G which formed the piece's structure, and that technique allowed for some interesting melodic composition. Anyway, I hope everybody's doing well-- Steve Doonan New Mexico US -- ---------------------------------------------------------------- Men, it has been well said, think in herds; it will be seen that they go mad in herds, while they only recover their senses slowly, and one by one. -Charles Mackay ----------------------------------------------------------------
