Hello, since no one can help me on <debian-user-german> I need to ask here. I have an AsusTek A7V600-X with a via82xx_audio OnBoard and then two Creative Labs SB 5.1 Live! I want to use it following: VIA System sounds and warnings (I get additional mesages over the network via rplay) SB 1 Normal Audio (Ardour, Xmms, ...) SB 2 KPhone (without KDE) My problem is, that ALL modules are oaded but alsa not want to use my SB 1. ALSA configure only VIA... I have to call every time I booted up "asaconf" to set it up but the next time I boot, I need to do it again. Please, can anyone tellme, HOW to setup the three-Devices permanently? Thanks, Greetings and nice Day Michelle Konzack -- Linux-User #280138 with the Linux Counter, http://counter.li.org/ ##################### Debian GNU/Linux Consultant ##################### Michelle Konzack Apt. 917 ICQ #328449886 50, rue de Soultz MSN LinuxMichi 0033/6/61925193 67100 Strasbourg/France IRC #Debian (irc.icq.com)

[LAU] [OT] Synchronizing video and dmx

by Carotinho

Hi! It's a bit Off Topic! A friend of mine is in need of a solution for syncing a video stream with dmx scenes. He wants that at a certain time during the video, certain things happen. How can we obtain a timecode from a running video? Through MIDI, Jack, what else? And how can we "redistribute" it to another application? I hope some of you had an idea:) Byez!

[LAU] [OT] Midi pedal board

by Gregory Anderson

People writing about pedalboards reminded me of a little project I was planning to get working on. I bought a single octave pedalboard off of ebay a few months ago. It is off of a hammond organ. I want to make it into a midi controller so that it is unable. I don't really know where to start though. Does anybody know of a good resource of the subject. Thanks, Greg.

[LAU] [OT] gimp frustrations

by Dave Phillips

Greetings: Is it possible for the Gimp to be more obtuse ?! I have an image. I want to add simple text to it. I want that text to be white, not black. I've wasted the last half-hour reading out-of-date instructions and trying unworkable solutions. I'm giving up on the Gimp and I figure there must be an easier way to do what I want, so once again I turn to the masters. What would you use to do this ? Best, dp

Never said it was. Although I bet a lot of people think it is - they can hardly buy a PC without it! ;-) >> The hardware definitely is not free, but I believe there are folk on the >> list who use the same hardware with Linux. ;-) > > I am looking into firewire cards as one option. I think folk on the list mention firewire for situations where they needed to transfer a lot of data realtime. > So, is anyone splitting their mic and instrument cables and feeding one to > house and one to recorder? Ours goes through the ADC box, the data stream goes to the computer, the box just passes the untouched audio signal through to our soundboard. > What is the highest number of tracks anyone regularly records at live gigs? We do 16, separate tracks for every instrument and voice. We have no drummer, so the drum machine has its own track. -- David gnome(a)hawaii.rr.com authenticity, honesty, community

[LAU] BFD Lite drum kits : Of any use ?

by lanas

Folks, Included with the Alesis Control Pad was a 'BFD Lite' CD that has drum kits that are looking like: ../Installer/Data/Kits/Factory/ 2006 BFD kit.bfk 2006 BFD kit.info 2006 BFD kit.tga 2006 Collection Kit.bfk 2006 Collection Kit.info 2006 Collection Kit.tga 2006 Electronic.bfk 2006 Electronic.info 2006 Electronic.tga 2006 Partial Brush.bfk 2006 Partial Brush.info 2006 Partial Brush.tga 2006 Pearl B.bfk 2006 Pearl B.info 2006 Pearl B.tga Are these of any use with Linux ? The whole thing is a software package for Windows and Mac. Me thinks these kits could be of a proprietary BFD-specific format, but then, maybe not. Any ideas ? Cheers, Al

[LAU] audio interview - reducing bumps and peaks?

by Florin Andrei

I've this WAV file that contains an interview. It was recorded with a cell phone, so the quality is not that great, plus the phone got bumped a few times resulting in annoying peaks. I was thinking to load the file in Audacity and run it through a compressor and tweak the settings until it sounds acceptable. But before I do that, does anyone have a better idea? What's your usual way to deal with this kind of records? Thanks, -- Florin Andrei http://florin.myip.org/
