"Its default operation is to capture whatever sound is going out to your
speakers into a file."
You don't have to think. If you have something cool going on in your
loudspeakers and need to record something now, in a hurry, you
remember that the recording program started with the name "jack", you
write "jack" + tab tab in your terminal, one of the options is
"jack_capture", select that one, and press return. Thats it, everything,
such as connecting ports, selecting a unique non-cryptic filename, and
selecting a well supported file format with best possible quality, is
taken care of, and the recording starts immediately. You don't have to
reconnect ports later either. If you reconnect your jack ports during
recording, jack_capture automatically reconnects its ports as well, so
that everything you hear, no matter how its connected before or after
jack_capture starts recording, is recorded into the file.
jack_capture also buffers a lot so the chance of getting a disk underrun
is extremely unlikely, and if you reach the 4gb barriere for wav files,
jack_capture automatically continues to record in new file.
Jack_capture also has a lot of options, such as selecting channels, file
format (try "jack_capture -f flac"), input ports to connect to, output
ports to connect to, how long time to record, how many channels, filename.
But normally you don't want to do that, just write "jack_capture" and
thats it.

Thanks. David sent it to me privately though, so I already have it. But
others may need it as well. Juce has an API which is changing from version
to version, so thats why. I used 0.41 to compile last time, which is not
100% compatible with 0.42.

Ouch, yeah, that machine might be a bit too slow to run the animation and
stuff. Do this to turn it off:
cd
mkdir -f .mammut
cd .mammut
rm -f *
wget http://www.notam02.no/~kjetism/mammut.prefs.gz
gzip -d mammut.prefs.gz
(normally, you would do this by accessing the preference panel in mammut,
but since you didn't get that far.)
jack_capture v0.9.4
===================
jack_capture is a program for recording soundfiles with jack. Its default
operation is to capture whatever sound is going out to your speakers into
a file. This is the program I always wanted to have for jack, but no
one made. So here it is.
Changes 0.9.3 -> 0.9.4:
*Fixed bug that caused max 2 channels to be recorded.

Hello,
Recently, a question was asked about the best way to connect applications
(pipes or network) to exchange simple control datas between them.
I wonder if another solution could be to use the MIDI layer, using SYSEX
messages ? Is it efficient ?
Thanks,
Fred
hi everyone. this is something that has been annoying me for sometime. is it
at all possible to use the samples from a copy of bfd in any sampling
software in linux? they are all wav format files, but each file contains
(from memory) 11 tracks, one for each microphone. the idea is that you mix
and pan each microphone after assembling the kit. i would prefer not to have
to mixdown each drum sample at each velocity (there are a LOT of them) so if
anyone knows of a sampler that can load (or import, i don't mind building a
sample bank) and play back multichannel wav files with dynamic mixing and
panning of each track i would much appreciate it :)

Hello list,
having very recently started with audio and midi recording, I'm
finding the available instruments in the timidity free patches are not
quite suitable for Irish music. I need decent samples for guitar,
bass and bodhran (drum), possibly harp. Any advice on where to get those?
I've tried the free patchset for timidity, and also the pc51 soundfont
found through google. One of the few instruments sounding almost
acceptable is the accoustic bass. Any suggestions for other
soundfonts, plugins for instruments or other solutions? I'd be
willing to make a bodhran patch set myself, if I knew how.
On a related note: what would be a typical way to enter guitar
accompanyment into rosegarden? Using a keyboard, or some other way?
I'm not so great at chords and play the flute myself, so my "keyboard
guitar" currently resembles anything but a guitar.
Kind regards,
Hein Zelle

Hi all,
I'm thinking of building a new workstation, aiming for a (very) low price and decent performance. So far, I have acquired an Athlon64 3200 and 2Gb of RAM, and bought an NVidia NForce4 board and Antec power supply on eBay. I've spent just under £35 Sterling so far!
I already have a couple of second-hand RME cards - a DIGI96/8 PAD and DIGI9636, which set me back £77 between them.
So, I still need some media to boot from, and a graphics card - which must be PCI Express.
I'm interested in using a CompactFlash-to-SATA adapter, and booting from a CF card. Does anyone know what the speed/reliability would be like? I imagine/hope that I'd be able to fit everything I need for a desktop and audio workstation onto 4GB or so? I can do without full-blown KDE or GNOME.
I'll probably get a SATA RAID card, and a couple of drives later for file storage.
Finally, the graphics card... What do you recommend? Is there anything to avoid? I'd much rather use open source drivers, but don't really have enough money to get a Matrox PCI-E card at the moment.
Thanks for any advice,
Michael Nelson

Hello Linux Audio Users :)
Some time ago I advertised some mixes I had made in TerminatorX on this list, and unforseen to me, ended up causing a bit of a stir amongst some people over the evil'ness of ripping off other artist's music illegally etc. I vowed to return to the list with an original creation made with Linux... :) To some extent I failed:
It's available here:
http://mirage.org/wzd/myspacemegamix04062007.mp3
And here:
http://www.myspace.com/binkyvonsopwith
Though perhaps you'd prefer to use the first link. :)
Tools used were a borrowed Yamaha SCX2 (during the first 107 seconds or so only), Freewheeling, JACK RACK, Audacity for editting (because I'm too n00b to've figured out Ardour yet), Fluidsynth and lots of noises recorded off TV and radio (which is where I fail in my original'ness; however I still think it's rather original :p).
May not be the best example of excellent music made with Linux, though possibly a good example that even somewhat stupid people can make music with Linux. :D (esp. with Freewheeling, thx to the excellent video tutorials ... Has anyone made or is interested in making video tutorials for Ardour? :D)
Take care everyone!
-AL.

Thread hijack so i changed the name... I want to record acoustic
guitar and vocals. Price limit is < AUD$300 so i'm thinking of 2
behringer c-2's ($75!!) and stereo mic pre or a single SM Pro mic 1
condenser and pre. Are cheap condensers better than sm57/58 of the
same price? Any recommendations?
