[linux-audio-user] SuperCollider works great on Linux, audio results

by Renick Bell

Searching the archive, there has been very little mention of SuperCollider on this list in the past year. I have been learning SuperCollider since the summer and think it's super. I wanted to share with you all what I have made: a tool called SCVamp for improvising music with a GUI programmed in SuperCollider. http://the3rd2nd.com/SCVamp/ You might like to listen to some examples. Here are two zips of mp3s. The first set contains nine mp3s (about 45 minutes of music), and the second has two mp3s (10 minutes of music); each set uses different synth sounds and scales. All of the tracks were improvised with this SuperCollider program and recorded in Ardour; they were also very quickly processed with Jamin. http://the3rd2nd.com/mp3/SCVamp_ensemble_a_mp3s.zip http://the3rd2nd.com/mp3/SCVamp_ensemble_b_mp3s.zip More information about the audio is here: http://the3rd2nd.com/SCVamp/about-scvamp/audio-examples/ I would love to hear your feedback, criticism, suggestions, and advice.

[linux-audio-user] sound blaster soundfont

by pascal lawrynowicz

Hi, I'm running a 64studio and have a trouble using it with Creative Sound Blaster Platinum Live DriveII sound device (pretty old but really cheap for what I need). I'm sure there's soundfonts in the device, allright? But trying using the sound with Rosegarden is impossible? I tried some configuration in the Manage MIDI Devices window but without any success. I know these cards are old, maybe someone from this list used it or still using it and can help. Thanks, PL www.percunivers.com

[linux-audio-user] Multiplatform Audacity-alike with compressed session files (like Garageband)

by Nathan Curry

Hey all, I'm working with some guys, and we're looking for a way to collaboratively record remotely. The application I'm looking for is: 1. Multitracking 2. Cross-platform, at least Win/Mac (I use Win and Linux, some use Mac, some use Windows.) 3. Compressed audio files so we can send it easily. Does anyone have any ideas? Audacity is close, and I would prefer not to have to use JACK on the Windows/Mac clients. But something that's a pain to set up is better than something that's a pain to work with. :-) Thanks, Nathan

[linux-audio-user] searching archives

by Josh Lawrence

Hello List, Can someone educate me on the best way to search the archives for the list? When I go to the web page, I get a monthly view, where I can download a gzipped archive for the month. I would like to search all archives at one time. What's the best way to do this? -- Josh Lawrence http://www.hardbop200.com

The sclang > interface will not work with x86_64, and I'm currently unwilling to set > up a chroot for it. Sorry, Dave. I have no personal experience with x86_64, but in the sc-users archive, Stephan Kersten does say: "you need to build sclang in a 32 bit chroot, some info on how to do that on debian is here: https://alioth.debian.org/docman/view.php/30192/21/debian-amd64-howto.html http://wiki.debian.org/DebianAMD64 scsynth needs to be built separately for 64 bit, passing LANG=0 to scons. sclang can be run directly from the 64 bit environment: http://elists.resynthesize.com/sc-users/2005/11/1542178/" http://www.nabble.com/compile-problem-amd64-tf1376023.html#a3693833 > 1. What GUI are you using for SC3 ? I am using SwingOSC. I chose it for the amount of documentation (relative to SCUM or Puxeddu's GTK bindings) as well as, with the GUI class, being able to run a good deal of stuff done by Mac SuperCollider users. Hanns Rutz has been developing it pretty actively over the fall. He's been very responsive to any questions/problems I've had. He's also looking for developers to help the project move along. http://www.sciss.de/swingOSC/ > 2. What version of SC3 are you using ? I built it from sources I downloaded in late July. > 3. Will SCVamp work on AMD64 ? I have not yet heard from anyone who has tried it in that environment yet, but I'd love for you to be the first :) > 4. Does SCVamp replace sclang ? Not at all. In fact, it requires it at the moment. > 5. Are there any other replacements for sclang ? There are replacements for sclang, such as Rohan Drape's stuff which I mentioned before: http://slavepianos.org/rd/r/ as well as Rutz's jcollider: http://www.sciss.de/jcollider/ I haven't heard of anyone using Psycollider on Linux (an implementation in Python, which is currently used to do SuperCollider stuff in Windows with SwingOSC as the GUI). Unfortunately, the only one of these that might work as an alternative to run my code is Psycollider. The rest would require me to rewrite (which I am somewhat considering, using rsc). Thanks for asking; let me know if I can help/encourage you more to get SCVamp running on your machine: Renick Bell http://the3rd2nd.com/SCVamp http://the3rd2nd.com

[linux-audio-user] OMF import tool?

by plutek＠infinity.net

greetings! i've been searching for a way to import an (Avid) OMF file in linux, to no avail. the archived discussions i've found seem to see it as a dead end, due to the proprietary nature of the protocol. snd lists .omf as an import-only format, but i believe this is some OTHER omf (not sure what, really), because it does not recognize the OMF files i have. has there been any movement recently on this issue? thanks! -- .pltk.

Re: [linux-audio-user] SuperCollider works great on Linux, audio results

by Renick Bell

> > Searching the archive, there has been very little mention of > > SuperCollider on this list in the past year > > does it work on x86-64 yet? if no, can you get the same performance/functionality from supyrcollider/hsc/ssc (et al) ? The server appears to, since at least November 2005. As for the language, it appears it only runs at 32. McCartney says: "There shouldn't be any problem running it as a 32 bit app on a 64 bit machine. SClang cannot be compiled for 64 bit because it relies on sizeof(Object*) < sizeof(double). This would require significant reworking to fix." and "I don't really see a big need to run the language in a 64 bit address space, though." See this thread: http://www.nabble.com/sc-on-linux-64-bit-tf477603.html#a1300129 I haven't used things like Rohan Drape's Scheme or Haskell SuperCollider clients, so I can't really say much about them. > how about jack.. fully native? I boot scserver and SuperCollider appears in Patchage automatically hooked up to the audio outs. I can swap things around, like patching SuperCollider into various channels in Ardour, Jamin, JAAA, or other apps. I can patch audio into SuperCollider. I'm not using esd or anything, if that's what you mean. Renick -- Renick Bell http://the3rd2nd.com

[linux-audio-user] random sample generator

by Atte André Jensen

Hi I'm having great fun using fastbreeder (and also a bit amsynth) for surprising me with random sounds. Are there any other tools outthere that'll do similar things, esp weird, rhythmic grooves? -- peace, love & harmony Atte http://www.atte.dk | quintet: http://www.anagrammer.dk | compositions: http://www.atte.dk/compositions

[linux-audio-user] unable to open rtc device

by Dragan Noveski

hi list, looking into dmesg i find this strange thing: 'drivers/rtc/hctosys.c: unable to open rtc device (rtc)' kernel configuration file looks like: nowhiskey@murija2:/usr/src/linux-2.6.20$ grep RTC .config CONFIG_RTC=m # CONFIG_RTC_HISTOGRAM is not set CONFIG_GEN_RTC=m CONFIG_GEN_RTC_X=y CONFIG_SND_RTCTIMER=m CONFIG_SND_SEQ_RTCTIMER_DEFAULT=y CONFIG_RTC_LIB=y CONFIG_RTC_CLASS=y CONFIG_RTC_HCTOSYS=y CONFIG_RTC_HCTOSYS_DEVICE="rtc" # CONFIG_RTC_DEBUG is not set # RTC interfaces CONFIG_RTC_INTF_SYSFS=y CONFIG_RTC_INTF_PROC=y CONFIG_RTC_INTF_DEV=y # CONFIG_RTC_INTF_DEV_UIE_EMUL is not set # RTC drivers # CONFIG_RTC_DRV_X1205 is not set # CONFIG_RTC_DRV_DS1307 is not set # CONFIG_RTC_DRV_DS1553 is not set # CONFIG_RTC_DRV_ISL1208 is not set # CONFIG_RTC_DRV_DS1672 is not set # CONFIG_RTC_DRV_DS1742 is not set # CONFIG_RTC_DRV_PCF8563 is not set # CONFIG_RTC_DRV_PCF8583 is not set # CONFIG_RTC_DRV_RS5C372 is not set # CONFIG_RTC_DRV_M48T86 is not set # CONFIG_RTC_DRV_TEST is not set # CONFIG_RTC_DRV_V3020 is not set nowhiskey@murija2:/usr/src/linux-2.6.20$ in the line 'CONFIG_RTC_HCTOSYS_DEVICE' i choosed 'rtc' because in my filesystem there is only '/dev/rtc' and no '/dev/rtc0' or '/dev/rtc1'. anyway, more down in the dmesg there is: 'Real Time Clock Driver v1.12ac Generic RTC Driver v1.07' does this mean that rtc is started successfully or not? the module 'rtc' shows up in lsmod after boot. i hope that someone can help me to clarify what is going on here. cheers, doc
