Just thought I'd announce success in running psychosynth on Lenny. I
first installed the listed dependencies from testing then psychosynth
from their repo. No luck. So uninstalled psychosynth and tried to build
from tarball. Could not get config to see libsoundtouch ( maybe due to
packages having non matching names? ( libsoundtouch1c2 and
libsoundtouch1-dev . Thinks...maybe I could have symlinked
libsoundtouch1c2 to libsoundtouch1)
So I uninstalled and compiled libsoundtouch. Then ran ./configure
again. Still not there! I gave up in disgust and re-installed the
psychosynth .deb and voile, it worked. Lotsa fun.
There be dragons in them there hills. :)
Thanks to some hints in the previous psynth thread also.

I perfectly understand. :-) Might have done the same. :-)

Don't disregard the delta 1010lt card. Onboard preamps are pretty
good. Two balanced inputs. A mackie board (approx $100) will have
preamps and phantom power.
I am using condensor mikes for acoustic guitar. I have two oktava
mk-12s. They are inexpensive mikes but with surprisingly good quality.
For vocals, sm-58 is good. Better would be a large diaphragm
condensor. The AKG 3000C is a budget end mike that performs very well.
It showed very well in a comparison with much more expensive mikes in
sound on sound magazine.
Remember that condensor microphones require phantom power. Often this
is found on the mixer board.
This seems like a lot, but it is a setup that will make very good
quality voice and acoustic guitar recordings. Ebay is a great place to
find discounts on good audio equipment. Also, don't forget that you
already saved hundreds of dollars on the software!
If you are looking to make demos or recordings that will eventually be
sold or represent you as a performer, consider investing in good
hardware!
That's my opinion. I could be wrong.

New version of Simple Sine Generator is available.
Simple Sine Generator is very simple instrument/generator plugin with
midi in and audio out. It expected to be useful for testing LV2 hosts
and as base for writing your own plugins.
It is written in plain C.
= What is new =
Main change is switch to event port LV2 extension. LV2 URI is changed
and installation directory is changed too. So you can have both older
midi port variant and newer even port ssg installed simultaneously.
Also, bug in Makefile is fixed. If with earlier version you got error on
compilation because of missing fftw or dynparam libraries, now it should
be fine.
Also, there is fix of a pitch bug (wrong octave).
I'd like to thank Andreas Kusterer for switching ssg to even port
extension.
Simple Sine Generator has trac homepage now:

Greetings,
I've encoded some AVS animations that I'd like to burn as DVD-format
files. I want to be able to play the DVD in a regular DVD player/drive.
The files are currently in AVI format, with 800x600 video and 48 kHz
audio resolutions. I tried the directions (NTSC + AC3) for mencoder here:
http://www.mplayerhq.hu/DOCS/HTML/en/menc-feat-vcd-dvd.html
but I got no joy. I'm inclined to believe that I don't know what I'm
doing, the process just hangs while writing the video header. :(
So what program(s) do the denizens of LAU use when they need to make a
DVD for friends, family, and influential music-industry moguls ? 64-bit
compatibility would be nice but isn't absolutely necessary.
TIA,
dp
for me there are 2 ways to come to a final DVD:
1. when I wish to digitalize a videotape I first have to start XP and use my Terratec Grabster 250 (I bought it before I stepped into Linux). I record the videostream with VIRTUALVCR using the HuffYUV codec into an external firewire drive - 90 minutes video result in roughly 70 GB.
Then I change to my openSuse and do the encoding in Avidemux, using a 2-pass encoding - up to now I used ffmpeg, but after reading some posts here I will maybe do some further investigations using something different... this pretty timeconsuming encoding process (1 hour movie = 4 to 6 hours encoding, depends on filter usage) usually runs over night on my old Asus Laptop with AMD Athlon 64 1.7GHz - maybe on my new Thinkpad it will run something faster - no experience yet.
anyway: result is a mpeg-file to be converted into a DVD structure.
2. through my Terratec Cinergy2 USB I record digital TV , the recorded transportstream can be transformed and demuxed by ProjectX, resulting in a xyz.m2v videofile and a xyz.mp2 audiofile, which then has to be merged by mplex in order to get a mpeg-file which then can be converted into a DVD structure.
I build my DVDs with "tovid", what is my favorite! I never succeeded using any graphical tools up to now.
Creating a menu using "makemenu" (incl. background picture and -music), then creating the .xml file using "makexml", then creating the DVD-structure using "dvdauthor" and finally create an isoimage using "mkisofs", finally burning the DVD - all this feels so easy to me to handle on the commandline, that I am not willing to invest time to explore different approaches...
hope this helps :-)
best

For some reason qjackctl has started to segfault on startup. I
have not got a clue what is happening. It was working fine fairly
recently.
Here is all I get from gdb:
Starting program: /usr/local/bin/qjackctl

Any ideas??

I am looking to set up a computer that will be primarily used as an ardour
workstation. I have been investigating different possibilities but basically
my priorities are stable under linux, low power consumption (less power means
less heat which means less fans which means less noise, also there is a
possibility that the workstation will be moved to a location which will be
off the grid).
The sound interface will probably be firewire based (prob firepod) & the 780g
mainboard I am looking at has onboard TI firewire So I am leaning towards
that.
I know that AMD/ATI have never been good on linux with Graphics...
So is anybody out there using one of these boards for music production - If so
what has your experience like....
Also any setups that are known to work particularly well would be of use to
me.... A laptop is also an option provided everything else is right.
Thanks in advance

Q: How did you get into artificial intelligence?
A: Seemed logical -- I didn't have any real intelligence.
Greetings,
As I explore AVSynthesis I've been looking for similar applications and
environments. I'm already familiar with the Pd/GEM powerhouse combo, but
I keep searching for others.
Has anyone here worked with this software :
http://processing.org
?
Might be interesting.
Best,
