Recording new album....and more !

by Conor O'Tuama

Hi now to all ! Been a while since I put some music up here, Just started recording my new album (using Ardour, qjackctl et al.). Ill be documenting the ups/downs/blunders on my website, and putting mixes up at the end of each recording session.....that's the plan, anyway :-) So, if anybody's interested, you can pop over to www.conorotuama.com for a listen !! Here's a link to a rough mix of what I got up to today: http://conorotuama.com/oggs/demos/all_i_summon_1.ogg Article here: http://conorotuama.com/recording-day1/ Also, a while back I recorded a demo of The Undertones' song, "Teenage Kicks", for a competition over here in Ireland, and here it is with all its rough edges intact ! http://conorotuama.com/oggs/teenage_kicks/teenage_kicks_final_mix_edited.ogg (the e-bow guitars are a little too much like the ones in one of my other songs.....hehe) All recording done in Linux ! Thanks to all the devs and users, Conor. (I won't bug the list for another 6 months....!) -- Visit www.conorotuama.com

Internet Music players?

by Mark Knecht

Hi, Just wondering if anyone here has any good experiences to share about hardware music players that can link up with Internet radio stations, song streaming sites like Pandora, as well as home file servers? There's one popular one that I cannot remember the name of. I found the Roku which looks interesting but it doesn't play many formats, most especially ogg. I'm looking for something for a present. Reply on or off list as you feel appropriate. Thanks in advance, Mark

Qjackctl-0.3.1a crash (Was: qjackctl-0.3.x and 49% cpu)

CPU is fine here, but I still managed to find a small crash :-) While qjackctl is minimized to system tray and jack running, right click on the icon, switch to another preset. The usual message tells you you'll need to restart jackd. Click OK and qjackctl is gone. No problems when the may window is show. Would you need a backtrace of this one ? And while I'm at it, a little feature idea (if you get a chance). A "minimize to system try on startup" option would be a very nice addition :-D Cheers, __________________ Marc-Olivier Barre, MarcO'Chapeau.

Re: [LAU] LAU collaboration coordination?

by Gregory Anderson

> it only works if people work it. > > To prove the naysayers wrong, I'd encourage more folks to join in on the collaboration and start, not adding new tracks or songs, but working on filling out and finishing the ones that are already up there. Give me a week or so to finish classes and I will give it a go. I am kind of limited in what I can do because of lack of experience on linux, but I will see what I can do. I am sure it will be a good learning experience. Where do I go to work on this though. I lost track of the progress of this and the sheer amount of emails on the subject make it hard to find the one(s) that tell me how to participate. Greg.
