Hi!
Is it possible to run the Garritan Personal Orchestra on Linux? The GPO
uses a dedicated version of the NI Kontakt player. Is this compatible to
dssi-vst? Any experiences? Are there any other affordable orchestra samples?

Hi
I've got a Neuros II 80gig. I think they're discontinued, I picked
one up about 2 years ago on eBay. Open Source firmare, too. It can
play mp3, ogg and wav and it has line-in and can record 44.1 MHz wav
as well. It's cool, if you don't mind the bulky device with a HD
attached.
Here it is:

* Added per band delay to low and mid bands.
* Changed initialization value from 0.1 to 0.0001 in rms.c
to avoid jump on startup.
The delay works is useful for compensating for the different arrival
times at speaker systems of low and mid frequencies versus high
frequencies (or driver placement). The first time I encountered this
was in using Rane crossovers but it is also in other crossovers and is
hardwired into the BBE Sonic Maximizer. For the purists in the user
pool - it only took up two tiny little checkboxes and if you don't want
to use them just don't check them ;-) There's very little processing
overhead involved since I avoided the use of if statements in the
processing loop.
Steve,
As this is my first incursion into the actual processing code, could
you please take a look at how I implemented this and make sure I didn't
miss something? It's basically the same code that you suggested except
that I needed two counters (port 0 and port 1).
Cheers,
Jan

Agreed.

Yes. Ext2 is generally dangerous.
For each power failure (or crash, or whatever), the chance of getting a
more corrupt harddrive increases. Also, it takes a lot of time (don't be
surprised if it takes more than 30 minutes!) to boot after an abrupt
reboot with ext2, because the disk is checked for errors.
And since both ext2 and ext3 are fast enough to provide probably
100 (or so) audio tracks anyway, very few people probably need that extra
few tracks or cpu cycles that ext2 theoretically might provide.
Sorry for X-posting.

Hello everybody
Is there a common way to convert audio recordings to midi notes using Linux
Audio software ?
I found wav2mid and waon but both projects didn't install here , any help
would be very welcome.
Thanks in advance

Hi Dave and everyone. I am still wrestling with this. I have the new ALSA
driver that supports my card, finally, but under 64studio I still get
20-some xruns a second, and Audacity is unable to connect to jackd.
PortAudio appears for a split second in the jack connection dialog, and
disappears. Some of you told me 64studio was preconfigured for low-latency
audio out of the "box" and all the apps were tuned to the distro, but it
doesn't seem to work that way for me.
Anyone know an up-to-date guide to low-latency audio on Debian or Linux?
There's still a lot of info out there that is obsolete, so I'm wary of
Google.
Just a note: I have been trying for several years to get low-latency audio
working right on Linux. This is a new machine, though, as of November 06,
and I had to wait 7 months for my audio card and wireless (still not working
right) to be nominally supported, so I haven't tried much for about 6
months. I'm still amazed at how everything just seems to work without
tweaking for some folks, and I'm wondering if there's something fundamental
I'm just not doing. My problems have baffled some of the very developers
who created drivers specifically for the hardware I have. What could be
wrong?

Just ordered a 320G sata hard disk to replace my increasingly noisy 40G IDE
disk (which is currently formatted with ReiserFS). I think I've read (here)
that ReiserFS isn't the best filesystem for audio work, but I would like to
retain journaling if possible.
Does ext3 play nice with an RT kernel, or is it the journaling that causes the
problems for ReiserFS
Also should I plan to convert existing partitions on another disk (my music
library) to ext3, or is it only the partitions actively used in audio work
that matter?
Many thanks in advance.
