Hi, You can find a demo version of Metsänpeitto by following this link and clicking play-button in the player: http://www.kolumbus.fi/sysimetsa/music.html It was done entirely with 64 Studio (Ardour, Qsynth, ZynAddSubFx, Hydrogen, Creox...) Some of the tracks were played with laptop keys (while traveling in Africa), i have to re-play those some day. More songs coming soon... Amazing how much fun one can get out of a laptop, good bunch of Linux audio applications, echo soundcard, one small mic, earphones and children's 1/8 guitar. Tapani

fst is back on track

by torbenh＠gmx.de

hi... i just wanted to anounce that i finally got round to do some work on the good old fst. Fixed most cavaets, included the vestige header. So this is GPL stuff now. binary packages welcome. get it via git: git clone git://repo.or.cz/fst.git the homepage: http://www.joebutton.co.uk/fst/ perhaps some of he info is still valid :S ----------------------------------------------------------- Its only a matter of make if your on 32bit. for lash suport: make -f Makefile.lash On 64bit you need to have some 32bit libraries: gtk libs and alsa, perhaps a 32bit lash you also need to make sure a link ending with .so exists for each library. there were some problems with that before. Also on 64bit jack-0.116.0 is required because fst is a 32bit client. i hope for packagers to jump in on this fast. so that people are not having to wade through 32bit dependency hell. The current version in git is very likely to become fst-1.11 (schnaps is better than wine) Due to the fact that the embeding and gtk bugging is fixed now, i have a gtk window around the plugin now, where i can put buttons and stuff. So midi learn and stuff is not far away anymore. jack-midi is planned, and should show up in the git soon. But this is orthogonal to the "hunt me down not working plugins" request. well... blabla... try to find a plug that does not work !!! -- torben Hohn

lv2rack

by R Dicaire

Hi folks....anyone running lv2rack on a debian system? I installed phat and pyphat from svn, built lv2, zynjacku/zyn, but when I try to run lv2rack, I get: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/lv2rack", line 25, in <module> import phat ImportError: /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/phat.so: undefined symbol: phat_knob_set_range While building pyphat I also see: (pygtk-codegen-2.0 --prefix phat \ --register /usr/share/pygtk/2.0/defs/gdk-types.defs \ --register /usr/share/pygtk/2.0/defs/gtk-types.defs \ --override phat.override phat.defs) > phat.c Could not write method PhatFanSlider.get_range: No ArgType for double* Warning: generating old-style constructor for:phat_knob_new Warning: generating old-style constructor for:phat_slider_button_new Could not write method PhatSliderButton.get_range: No ArgType for double* Could not write method PhatSliderButton.get_increment: No ArgType for double* Could not write method PhatSliderButton.get_format: No ArgType for int* Warning: Constructor for PhatFanSlider needs to be updated to new API See http://live.gnome.org/PyGTK_2fWhatsNew28#update-constructors Warning: Constructor for PhatHFanSlider needs to be updated to new API See http://live.gnome.org/PyGTK_2fWhatsNew28#update-constructors Warning: Constructor for PhatKeyboard needs to be updated to new API See http://live.gnome.org/PyGTK_2fWhatsNew28#update-constructors Warning: Constructor for PhatHKeyboard needs to be updated to new API See http://live.gnome.org/PyGTK_2fWhatsNew28#update-constructors Warning: Constructor for PhatKnob needs to be updated to new API See http://live.gnome.org/PyGTK_2fWhatsNew28#update-constructors Warning: Constructor for PhatSliderButton needs to be updated to new API See http://live.gnome.org/PyGTK_2fWhatsNew28#update-constructors Warning: Constructor for PhatVFanSlider needs to be updated to new API See http://live.gnome.org/PyGTK_2fWhatsNew28#update-constructors Warning: Constructor for PhatVKeyboard needs to be updated to new API See http://live.gnome.org/PyGTK_2fWhatsNew28#update-constructors ***INFO*** The coverage of global functions is 100.00% (4/4) ***INFO*** The coverage of methods is 92.16% (47/51) ***INFO*** There are no declared virtual proxies. ***INFO*** There are no declared virtual accessors. ***INFO*** There are no declared interface proxies. which probably explains why I get the error trying to run lv2rack.

A new song again...

by Julien Claassen

Hello folks! It pays to stay up late or just not to go to bed. So here's a new one. Rather depressive in the beginning, but a bit happier towards the end. I had to sing again. Not too bad though. Two or three passages only, the rest is quite OK. Here's the link: http://juliencoder.de/we_failed.ogg Enjoy it and I'd be happy for donated feedback. :-) Kindest regards Julien -------- Music was my first love and it will be my last (John Miles) ======== FIND MY WEB-PROJECT AT: ======== http://ltsb.sourceforge.net the Linux TextBased Studio guide ======= AND MY PERSONAL PAGES AT: ======= http://www.juliencoder.de

el cheapo for Sweex sc011 (CMI8738) : works!

by Ronald

Hi all, as requested, my configuration of the el-cheapo hack I bought 2 sweex 4.1 sound cards (netherlands, 10 euro each) which are CMI8738 chips, sweex model SC011 they contain 1 chrystal with 2 feet. can't miss it. I soldered a microphone wire into the two empty holes on the crystal-stripped card, and soldered the middle wire onto the crystal equipped card. this is different from the tutorial, but works. after that, I tested with baudline, and both cards (still) worked. I'm developing a robot sonar direction finder, and with sonar, more channels are better. Thanks for the el-cheapo hack ! (now back to the mess that is called Alsa/Jack. how the <bleep> can I query/see/confirm that those self made aliases set up in the ~/.asoundrc are actually processed and available ? Jack does not seem to see them, it sees 2 capture devices where I am endowed with no less than 4 soundcards, which *are* known to the system) raalst@rt:~$ cat /proc/asound/cards 0 [CMI8738 ]: CMI8738 - C-Media CMI8738 C-Media CMI8738 (model 37) at 0xa000, irq 18 1 [CMI8738_1 ]: CMI8738 - C-Media CMI8738 C-Media CMI8738 (model 37) at 0xa400, irq 21 2 [ICH5 ]: ICH4 - Intel ICH5 << on board Intel ICH5 with ALC655 at irq 22 3 [SAA7134 ]: SAA7134 - SAA7134 << tv tuner saa7134[0] at 0xfb005000 irq 20

I'll compile the kernel driver for my other systems too and will try it on them.

The shuttle works okay for my purposes, but I haven't really used it much in Ardour. However, now it works so nicely with the Tranzport, I think I'll use it more often. The Tranzport opens some new ways of working for me, I'm looking forward to testing it more thoroughly. I plan to write a profile about the Tranzport for my column, I'll be sure to point to your work. Thanks again for your labor on this project. :) Best, dp

Re: [LAU] fst is back on track

by Dave Phillips

Hi Torben, Thanks for picking up development again on FST. I built it on my Ubuntu Intrepid box, tested it with one plugin (DXReverb), and it seems to work fine. I'll put it through some more serious tests later today when I get back to my studio. Wow, maybe we'll soon see a legally redistributable VST-enabled Ardour. :) Best, dp

Preliminary tests are very positive, the Tranzport is working fine on my 64 Studio system with the new driver and on my OpenSUSE 10.2 box with the libusb driver. Very cool ! :) I had to do the /dev/tranzport tango before Ardour2 loaded its support stuff, but after that it seems to work perfectly. Thank you for your work on this project, let me know if you need a tester for any further Tranzport code. Best, dp

Re: [LAU] Usb driver debug

I'm not sure how similar it is, but I have a UA-4fx with an advanced switch that doesn't work.
