Greetings: I'd like to make some desktop video captures (with audio) like xvidcap can make, but that program doesn't work with Jack. Is there a way to use xvidcap with Jack, or is there another recommended solution ? Grazie, dp

[LAU] Reverb status?

by Juhana Sadeharju

Hello. What open source and free(dom) reverbs do we have available? I authored GVerb and wish to have something better. What free (possibly not open source) reverbs do you use? What kind of reverb presets people use for vocals? Lately I have listened to Madonna's Confessions tour DVD which has good reverb effects. I would like to know more about that kind of working presets. Also, Timbaland uses good vocal processings (Nelly Furtado/Say it right, Timbaland/ The way I are). I would like to know more if I wish to develop such a vocal reverb myself. Juhana -- http://music.columbia.edu/mailman/listinfo/linux-graphics-dev for developers of open source graphics software

[LAU] Live CD distribution?

by Kevin Cosgrove

A friend of mine is willing to loan me a laptop to do some recording. It's a PIII with Windows ME on it. He's installed Audacity on it. Even so, I'd prefer to run Linux, and I can't trash the hard drive on him. So, is there a live Linux CD with Audacity which would be good for this application? Hmmm, I'll need to write the sound file to the hard drive, and I don't know if the drive is VFAT or NTFS. If it's NTFS that would limit which live CDs might work for me, if any. Thoughts folks? Thanks.... -- Kevin

[LAU] ReplyTo munging (Was: What hardware is actually used by freebob/ffado users?)

For those of you who haven't heard, there has been a very long debate on whether replyto munging was or wasn't a god practice. Each side had a reference paper stating a number of pros and cons : - http://www.unicom.com/pw/reply-to-harmful.html - http://marc.merlins.org/netrants/reply-to-useful.html The fight between Simon Hill and Chip Rosenthal finaly ended in 2001 when a new RFC obsoleting RFC 822 appeared, RFC2822. Here's a paper from Neale Pickett stating the final story : http://woozle.org/~neale/papers/reply-to-still-harmful I strongly consider turning munging off on LAD and LAU. I know this might start some flames, but isn't it good free software philosophy to stick to the standards, especially when it comes to a recently reviewed RFC ? If someone can give me an argument that is not present in the 3 previously linked documents stating why we need to munge our headers, I'll turn munging off next week.

I tried it with Ardour, Audacity and ReZound and as long as you save your work before closing it works well. Thank you!
