[LAU]Sound card doesn't work

by J M Needham

HI REALLY REALLY SORRY for this but my sound card on kubuntu Feisty (fresh install) doesn't output sound. Everything is up in alsamixer, amarok is providing input happily, but nothing's coming out. I've checked the connection to the stereo and things like that, but I've just got no idea what to do to solve it. God Bless Jonty

[ANN] Linux Audio Conference 2008

by LAC2008

Linux Audio Conference 2008 Lectures / Demos / Workshops / Concerts / Linux Soundnight Köln/Cologne, 28.2.-2.3.2008 The 6th Linux Audio Conference is taking place in Cologne (Germany) Feb 28th to March 2nd 2008. The Academy of Media Arts[1], Cologne, is proud to host the Linux Audio Conference 2008[2], where once a year programmers and artists, musicians, composers and practioneers gather to discuss and explore new and important developments in making music and sounds with Linux and Open Source software. The Linux Audio Conference is both a meeting of developers writing audio software for Linux as it is a music festival, where artists from all over the world show how free software can create fresh and exciting new sounds. A wide range of workshops, talks and presentations will once again prove, how Tux, the friendly penguin, spreads its little wings into areas, that no longer are the realm for the big fish alone - like computer music, sound engineering and audio distribution. The LAC aims at bringing together developers and users of Linux and open source audio software with the goal of information sharing, project discussions, making (and dancing to) music. Each day of the conference there will be a concert which features music composed and created with open source software. Stay tuned for the various calls for Papers, Music and Workshops bound to appear on the new LAC website - http://lac.linuxaudio.org - right after the summer break. The team of LAC2008 is working hard to make the LAC Cologne again a successful and most of all fun event for all visitors and participants. If you have further questions, want to cooperate with us or just cannot wait anymore, you can always contact us by email: lac(a)linuxaudio.org Hear you in 2008!

usb-2.0 harddisc

by Dragan Noveski

hi list, i am here on a ibm laptop with a multiface plugged into the card bus slot. since my system harddisc slowly runs out of space, i am trying to figure out, what another harddisc i could use, but the only available port i have is an usb port. my question is, if someone of you have already made any experiences with an usb harddisc? will that be fast enough? in the moment using a system hard disc, i am able to record 16 tracks at once without any problems, but since the space there is limited... is someone of you using an usb harddisc for recording? does anybody has an recomandation for an usb harddisc? cheers, doc

No, that's me over here

by Folderol

I've been a bit quiet on here lately, but I'm still around :) I've made some changes to my track 'Ghost Train' (yes I know, this comes as no surprise) and would like to know if people think it's an improvement or not. As well as changing some instruments and re-balancing, I've added a deep counter melody to parts of it. http://www.musically.me.uk/music/Ghost_Train.ogg http://www.musically.me.uk/music/Ghost_Train.mp3 -- Will J Godfrey http://www.musically.me.uk

Ok, back to the ML's :) try: http://tapas.affenbande.org/lash_wrap/lash_wrap-0.4.tgz It works here after a quick test.. I have added a --delay [-d] option which defaults to 3 secs.. That is the time the wrapped client has available to register jack and alsa ports.. ;) So if your app takes longer to start than that it will still not work.. Tomorrow or so i will try to add an active scanning mode for jack client names like for alsa seq client names.. Regards, Flo -- Palimm Palimm! http://tapas.affenbande.org

Convert from WMA to ... ?

by Kevin Cosgrove

I have a WMA file, yes only one, that I can play with Amarok. But, I want to convert it to OGG or WAV. How can I do that? I used to do this with wma2wav <http://mcmcc.bat.ru/xmms-wma/wma2wav>, but that won't build on my Mandriva 2007.0 system. The last thing I built it on was Mandrake 9.0. Thanks.... -- Kevin

The drummer wants different reverb settings per mic. At the end of a recording session I may add an overall (slight reverb) but every instrument has a different amount and (sometimes) type of reverb.
