Freecycle segfaults on 64studio (64 bit)

by Emiliano Grilli

Hi all, Is anyone able to run freecycle on a 64bit installation? Here the program opens and I select "Open wave": it shows the file selection dialog but when I press "OK" the program segfaults. Here's some output from gdb: Trying to apply envelope in central wave zapWaveCanvasBuffers() in wavecanvas (parent [central wave]) Buffers zapped in small wave zapWaveCanvasBuffers() in wavecanvas (parent [small wave]) Buffers zapped zap buffer 0 done zap buffer 2 done zap buffer 4 done +++++++init buffer type: 0 no: 0 length: 32208000 zap buffer 0 done init buffer 0 done +++++++init buffer type: 4 no: 1 length: 32208000 zap buffer 2 done init buffer 2 done Trying to apply envelope Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

Line noise

by leslie.polzer＠gmx.net

Hello everyone, I'm trying to get my electric guitar connected to my sound card. Keeping the card's input gain low keeps away the noise, but produces a very low signal. I can put Jamin right after that and crank up the input gain, but there's a maximum to it and I'm not sure whether that's the right approach. Turning up the card's input volume increases the gain, of course, but it delivers a lot of very ugly noise as well. If I connect a microphone to the port, I get a high-gain signal without noise. The card's an SB Live! Platinum, and the mic port seems to be the only capture port usable by Jack. The cabling for the guitar is all new. I can provide samples of the input signal at the various settings if you wish.

Re: [LAU] Good mic for voice?

by william estrada

Paul, I have being thinking about a software fix. Do you have some example code of how to do a 'compressor' or up the volume? I think that would be a better solution. Trying to keep the hardware cost down. It will be a multi-user environment. -- William Estrada MrUmunhum(a)popdial.com Mt-Umunhum-Wireless.net ( http://Mt-Umunhum-Wireless.net ) Ymessenger: MrUmunhum > Date: Wed, 31 Oct 2007 08:19:07 -0600 > From: Paul Winkler <pw_lists(a)slinkp.com> > Subject: Re: [LAU] Good mic for voice? > > On Tue, Oct 30, 2007 at 09:24:59AM -0700, Florin Andrei wrote: >> > If you care more about sound quality, there's a #4 choice too: insert a >> > compressor between the mic preamp and the computer.

Good mic for voice?

by william estrada

Hi group, Looking for a good mic for a voice app. Currently using a cheap $10 Radio shack cassette mic, Model: 33-3019. The volume is very low on both windozes and Linux. I wondering if the Model: HG-M73 or their Model: AVL516 would be better? Any suggestion? Other sources? Experiences? Thanks for your time. -- William Estrada MrUmunhum(a)popdial.com Mt-Umunhum-Wireless.net ( http://Mt-Umunhum-Wireless.net ) Ymessenger: MrUmunhum

Hi, Has it ever been working ? maybe before when our server was at Columbia, but certainly not since we're on linuxaudio.org. I am seriously considering enabling this feature for linux-audio-user. Maybe also for LAD (I think gmane is more user oriented than developer, I'm not sure if there would be a benefit for this), but certainly not for LAA. This of course will be when I get a chance, and if I ever manage to get in touch with gmane's admins to make them change this bloody archive link that's still pointing at Columbia. So far, not a word from them... Cheers, __________________ Marc-Olivier Barre, MarcO'Chapeau. -- __________________ Marc-Olivier Barre, MarcO'Chapeau.

Hmm .. this change in hardware, does that have something to do with how gmane is hosting this mailing list as a newsgroup? For me, sending messages to gmane appears to be not working anymore. Is it me or has something changed in your new settings? thanks, ->HS

Linux-audio-user Digests too small and frequent

by Paul DeShaw

Greetings, Is there a way to get the listserv to send one digest a day instead of several? It only puts a few messages in each digest, and I get up to 4 or more digests a day. It defeats the purpose of receiving in digest form, IMO. --Paul --- On Thu 10/04, < linux-audio-user-request(a)lists.linuxaudio.org > wrote: Today's Topics: 1.

How do I get my posts answered?

by Paul DeShaw

Greetings, I am noticing, both here and on the Ubuntu Studio User's list, that other people's posts get answered until the problem is solved, but mine are not. Sometimes the initial query is answered, then the thread is dropped before I get the help I need. Other times, my questions are ignored entirely. I do not see this happening with other posters. Nobody is asking for more information to help them answer, or asking me to post differently; the posts are just ignored. So now, I am asking the community if there is something different you would like in the way I post. I have poured the last two years of my life into trying to get audio production working under Linux, with no success. I do not have a single minute of audio recorded. If I cannot get the support of the community, I don't see how I will ever be able to make music with Linux. What would you like me to do?
