[linux-audio-user] ALSA MIDI translator for PhatBoy controller

by Ismael Valladolid Torres

I just got a PhatBoy MIDI controller. However its software version is v1 so its mode III only allows me sending CC in the range 1-13. I wonder if there's out there any ALSA MIDI translator which allows me to change this CC realtime to different CC more useful for i.e. zynaddsubfx. Any ideas welcome.

[linux-audio-user] [mini-ANN] rme.el -- Simple interface to the RME Multiface matrix mixer for Emacs

by Mario Lang

Hola! The subject basically says it all. Since the hdspmixer app is still graphical only, and I was sort of pissed with the syntax I had to use to make amixer set the RME matrix mixer, I wrote some convinience functions for Emacs. Now, I have nicely named channels (with prompting) and can use dB instead of integers in the range of 0-65535 to set the hardware mixer of the RME. Still missing however is an additional mapping for double-speed mode, I didn't need that yet, but I will write it as soon as I need it...

[linux-audio-user] is there a synthesizer based on gnuradio?

by michael＠michaelshiloh.com

I seem to recall seeing a note in one of the software synthesizers on CCRMA that it was based on the gnuradio library and API. I've been searching and have not been able to locate it. Does anyone know offhand? And, any comments on it? Thanks, Michael

Re: [linux-audio-user] M-Audio Uno?

EDIT: I forgot to fix the subject on the previous version of this, so it appeared in the "Most Loaded Desktop" thread. I apologize to all of the recipients for the off-topic reply. :( ---------------------- > I use one. Actually it's the "MidiMan" version, but same device.

The following are listed for the same price. - M-Audio Midisport 1x1 - Edirol UM-1EX - M-Audio Uno Which would you pick?

[linux-audio-user] [ANN] QLoud v.0.18 - Step Response plotting is added

by Andrew Gaydenko

QLoud is a tool to measure loudspeaker frequency and step responses and distortions. Find it here: http://gaydenko.com/qloud/ Changes: - Step Response plotting is added, this is a direct screenshot link: http://gaydenko.com/qloud/screenshots/shot04.png These measurements are done for the same 2-way loudspeaker (see plots titles). It is clear, a tweeter must be shifted lightly beyond from a listener.

[linux-audio-user] Sound Works... Sometimes

by Steven Cabrera

If this is a duplicate I apologize. My first attempt bounced because of suspicious headers. And I'm not sure I was able to cancel it. I wonder what's wrong with my headers. Hi All, I have a strange problem with the sound in my system. I have Fedora Core 5 on a Power Mac 2.3gHz with a Delta 44 sound card and a Unitor 8 midi interface. I have spent much of the last month or so perusing the mailing lists trying to find the answer to my problem. OK here it is. The sound system works only after I boot once without a .asoundrc file and then boot again with one. There is a thread that discusses something about detection order. From what I can gather the Unitor 8 is being confused with a sound card. Another thing I think I understand is that there is no set order in which hardware is detected. What I don't understand is how to get the actual sound card detected before the Unitor. I read that in order to do this I should have something like "options snd-ice1712 index=0" in my /etc/modprobe.conf file. Here are the contents of that file: alias eth0 sungem alias scsi_hostadapter sata_svw alias snd-card-0 snd-ice1712 options snd-card-0 index=0 options snd-ice1712 index=0 remove snd-ice1712 { /usr/sbin/alsactl store 0 >/dev/null 2>&1 || : ; }; /sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove snd-ice1712 alias snd-card-1 snd-powermac options snd-card-1 index=1 options snd-powermac index=1 remove snd-powermac { /usr/sbin/alsactl store 1 >/dev/null 2>&1 || : ; }; /sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove snd-powermac As you can see that line is in there. And being a Linux newbie I don't have much of a clue about what the rest of the file does. Here is the contents of my .asoundrc file: pcm.ice1712 { type hw card 0 } ctl.ice1712 { type hw card 0 } I would appreciate any and all help that comes my way. I'll even sing at your next wedding if you can help me get this working correctly :-) Thanks, Steve

Which distribution are you running? Have you experienced this error before? Are any of your disks full? Do you have something called "FAM" in your run-level? Can you turn it off? PS. Please use "Reply All" when replying to messages on mailing lists. I almost overlooked this one, and its also more relevant to the cmdist mailing list than linux-audio-user.

I have 5x6 number of desktops where I use Ctrl+Up, Ctrl+Down, Ctrl+Left and Ctrl+Right to navigate. I have had this setup for about 9 years, and have no plans to change.
