commandline/scripting tool for ladspa plugins

by Georg Holzmann

Hallo! Is there any tool where it is possible to process a soundfile with a ladspa plugin, so that I don't need to open a sound editor ? For instance, I have 10 audio files and want to process them with ladspa plugin AAA with parameters x,y,z. Is there a possibility to do that in a shell or an other scripting language (e.g. python) ? Thanks for any hints, LG Georg PS: I have found python-ladspa (http://python-ladspa.sourceforge.net/) but it didn't really work for me ...

emerging jaaa - no libclthreads-2.2.1

by Brad Fuller

I'm trying to emerge jaaa and it requires libclthreads-2.2.1. Unfortunately, it is not available. I see that clthreads-2.4.0.tar.bz2 is. Can it be used? I imagine the build needs to be fixed if the latest version can be used. >>> Emerging (1 of 5) media-libs/libclthreads-2.2.1 to / >>> Downloading 'http://www.kokkinizita.net/linuxaudio/downloads/clthreads-2.2.1.tar.bz2' --08:56:19-- http://www.kokkinizita.net/linuxaudio/downloads/clthreads-2.2.1.tar.bz2 => `/usr/portage/distfiles/clthreads-2.2.1.tar.bz2' Resolving www.kokkinizita.net... 80.237.132.104 Connecting to www.kokkinizita.net|80.237.132.104|:80... connected.

sfark

by Al Thompson

I downloaded some soundfonts the other day, and some of them are .sfArk files. Google happily tells me that they are compressed .sf2 files, but I haven't found a program to extract them. What's everyone using on these?? Thanks.

sysex, mid etc..

by James Stone

What are people's recommendations for sending/recieving sysex files. How about .mid files containing patch info? I am happy to use something under wine if that is the best way... Simple sysexxer locks up when I try to load one of the syx files it generated. James

[Linux-Audio-User] M-Audio Trigger Finger

by J M Needham

Dear All, ANyone used one of these with linux? Couldn't find it's usbid online -- what I want to know is is it worth getting, as in is it supported, have people found it useful as a controller probably for hydrogen or midi into specimen? I'm definitely getting a BCF2000 this or next week, but found a cheap M-Audio and have seen them in action for drums. Haven't found anything on google yet; if someone does want to point out that I'm misusing google in this case then I sincerely apologise. God Bless Jonty
