[linux-audio-user] Reminder::Linux Audio Conference #5 (LAC2007): Call for Papers - Music

by nescivi

Dear all, this is the second call for papers for the 5th Linux Audio Developers Conference (LAC2007). This is a reminder since some people might not have received the last call or might just have forgotten about the deadlines by now (08 Jan 2007 : Deadline for submission of papers, worshops, tutorials, demos, hands on demos and music). The conference is organized by the TU-Berlin in cooperation with people of the Linux Audio Developers mailing list, the music festival Inventionen 2007 and the Humboldt University of Berlin. The LAC2007 is taking place at the TU-Berlin, Germany from the 22nd - 25th of March 2007. We have introduced some new tracks. Besides the category for papers, demos and workshops, calls for tutorials and hands on demos have been added. The tutorials aim is to give new (potential) users an overview of the possibilities of Linux Audio Software and how to get started. The LAC2007 provides a computer pool (LA Pool) where developers can give an introduction to their software and where participants can try out Linux Audio Software during the conference. This has been combined in the call hands on demos. Since the TU-Berlin is installing a new Wave Field Synthesis (WFS) system the call for music has been extended by a call for compositions for this system. Music that can be used for radio airplay can be submitted, and will after acceptance by the Campusradio of the TU Berlin, be played during the conference. More detailed Information can be found in the 'Call for Papers' attached to this email or on the website at: www.lac.tu-berlin.de We are looking forward to many interesting submissions for the Linux Audio Conference 2007 and hope to see you in Berlin in 2007! Please feel free to forward this email to anybody who is interested. On behalf of the LAC2007 organisation team, Marije Baalman and Simon Schampijer

[linux-audio-user] Tickless?

[linux-audio-user] cross platform FOSS audio software list

by Chris McCormick

Hi All, Someone on another list I'm subscribed to has recently posted a message saying "check out this awesome software I found for Mac OSX" with a link to Audacity. I'd like to post back giving examples of lots of other great cross platform FOSS audio apps and say a bit about why FOSS is nice. Is there a concise list somewhere I can link to? Or do people just want to tell me their favorite bits of cross platform mainstream friendly audio software? Best, Chris. ------------------- chris(a)mccormick.cx http://mccormick.cx

[linux-audio-user] Ubuntu Studio: An interview with project manager Cory Kontros

by Jon H

Hey all, Recently there was a lot of rumblings on the news portals about Ubuntu Studio. It's a project that until recently had been active pretty much as just an audio-on-ubuntu wiki but the news suggested it was growing into something quite a bit more. Deciding to take a look for myself I ended up in the project's IRC channel and borrowed some of the valuable time of Cory Kontros, the project's manager, for a quick interview. Take a look if you like: http://oktyabr.wordpress.com/2007/01/27/ubuntu-studio-an-interview-with-pro… Best, Jon Hoskins

[linux-audio-user] Midi interface for FC5/CCRMA laptop

by linuxmedia4＠netscape.net

Hi, I'm interested in buying a midi interface for my Dell Precision M50 laptop, running FC5/CCRMA. I wanted to check if anyone running FC5/CCRMA has had any success with any of the following interfaces and what it took to set them up (any pointers to set-up instructions would be appreciated). Hopefully, one of these will work "out of the box". But some configuration is acceptable, as long as it's understandable and works in the end. ESI RoMI/O Midiman Uno Midisport 1x1 Thanks, Rocco

[linux-audio-user] mail with suspicious headers?

by October

/rant mode on I have two accounts with the LAU list, this one and a gmail account. The gmail account, being the newer of the two, was going to be regular webmail as yahoo is getting unruly and I prefer the gmail interface. But lately my posts to this list have been bouncing back with messages about being held because "Is being held until the list moderator can review it for approval. The reason it is being held: Message has a suspicious header"? What does this mean and why is it always so hit and miss? Some days my posts go through unhindered, other days they hang just like this and I couldn't get one to go through even if the fate of the world depended on it. Who is the list moderator and how nasty a business this must be for them? Obviously quite busy because sometimes days go by without an approval or even a rejection, for that matter. It's not just this list nor is it just from my gmail account. Perhaps the list structure is showing it's age? I think this finally pushed me over to the "let's have a forum" school of thought. /rant mode off Jon ----------------------------------------------------------------------- In a world without walls who needs gates or windows? --unknown --------------------------------- It's here!

[linux-audio-user] Is archive.org the best?

by oktyabr

For someone wanting to put songs online covered under a CC license is archive.org the best free resource or is there something else out there? Thanks in advance! Jon Hoskins

[linux-audio-user] iceape: bookmarks do not scroll during drag-drop bookmark action

by H.S.

When I try to drag a bookmark (from the URL bar) to the bookmarks folder with the mouse, the list of bookmarks does not scroll up as I move the mouse at the bottom of the list. On the other hand, if I am not 'holding' a URL and position the mouse at the bottom of the bookmarks list, the list scrolls up properly. So the problem occurs only during the drag-drop action of a bookmark with the mouse. Is this a bug? I am using ii iceape-browser 1.0.7-2 on Debian Etch. ->HS

[linux-audio-user] short piano review )for linuxsampler)

by Julien Claassen

Hi all! There was just recently a discussion about pianos, I now bought the "Old Lady" from pmi (post musical instruments) and I feel it's a nice opportunity to give a very short review. Btw. If you like it, until feb. 3rd there's a discount of 50%! It's a Steinway Model D from 1923 sampled with 10 layers (10layer keyrelease and pedal-down included). This all seems to work without a problem under linuxsampler. It's available in gigasampler version 2 and 3. The gs2 loads without a problem. They said, that the piano is bundled with IRs (Impulse Responses) of its own body and of the concert hall, where it was supposed to be. I doubted if I could use those. But wonderful: Even they work. The IRs are sent as .wav-files. So you can take them and either process them in realtime through Fons Adriaensen jace or in non-realtime through csound. I just thought it might be nice to know, for I didn't know that much before and would have liked to do so. btw. I tried using the piano with both linuxsampler 0.3.3 and 0.4.0. It was both ok. Kindest regards HTH.
