As far as my experience go, there are no silent PSU w/fan
available. However, I've just successfully switched the
fan out of a tagan superrock (supposedly the silentest
PSU according to anandtech.com) with a downvolted fan, and
that worked. Lost warranty though, but can't hear it from
outside of the case now.

I would go for either of these, although they cost a bit more.
By mounting a silent 120mm fan running at 5V close to one of
these, they should probably work just fine.

What does /etc/security/limits.conf say?
My file has this line:
"@audio - memlock 25000000"
which gives me 2.5m of non-locked memory. (at least I think
that's what it means)

Try make clean before make. If that doesn't help,
what says "sh gen_setformat_c.sh"? And which version
of libsndfile do you have?

This is probably related to the bug above, where it didn't
find a legal soundformat, and thus couldn't open a new file
with libsndfile either.

Hello everyone!
I just uploaded a new small piece, it's a bit jazzy, rocky and classical.
Download link:
http://juliencoder.de/jazz.ogg
Software used:
Nama (the super-ecasound)
LinuxSampler
Fluidsynth
LADSPA-plugns
and an external synth for the Hammond.
This song was originally made to test and use Nama. When I said super
ecasound I meant it in two ways:
1. For the latin speaking corwd: It sits on top of ecasound
2. It is designed to make things easier and to use the full power of …
[View More]ecasound,
without hesitation. It works! A few bits of brick or brack here and there, but
nothing too annoying.
Feedback is as always highly welcome!
Kindest regards and enjoy
Julien

Contrary to the fans included with PSUs, the fans you can
buy separately can be silent, especially when downvolted
to 5V. So to ensure you don't
overheat a fanless PSU, which can happen if it's too hot,
it could be a good idea to mount a fan close to the PSU.

This is exactly the same as just writing "jack_capture". :-)

Seems like your jack isn't working …
[View More]properly, but in case
not I would be very interested in getting it fixed.
Which version of jack are you using?
jackd --version
In case you are using 109, it would be a good idea to up- or down-grade
immediately.

Using Debian Etch, no sound, nothing. Even with envy24control set.
Booted the PC with a Sidux Live CD (2008-4 release) and Kaffeine plays
through the Audiophile without doing anything.
I tried capturing the asound.state file when running Sidux, copied that
to replace my existing state file, reloaded it using alsactl - and still
no sound.
What's up with that?

Tech details:
Fedora 9/CCRMA based system, Delta 1010,
2.6.26.8-1.rt13.4.fc9.ccrma.i686.rt kernel (usually)
jackdmp 1.9.1, Ardour 2.7.1 (both pre-built and hand-compiled)
/usr/bin/jackd -R -P70 -p512 -dalsa -r44100 -p128 -n2 -D -Chw:0 -Phw:0 -m
Prologue: it helps to understand that in my Ardour sessions, I have
the master bus output going only to the monitor bus, and the monitor bus
outputs connect only to the system:playback inputs. I then control the
volume to the powered monitors with the …
[View More]fader for the monitor bus.
I started up an Ardour session today to listen to a band I'd recently
recorded with Ardour 2.7.1, and heard feedback that started quietly but
started growing rather quickly. I turned down the amp and saw the
master bus's VU meters full on into the red, with the monitor channel
about half that.
I pulled up the master bus input list and saw this:
in 1
----
ardour:Drum Submix/out 1
ardour:Bass/out 1
ardour:master/out 1
ardour:Vox FXout 1
ardour:Marty Guitar/out 1
ardour:Harry guitar/out 1
in 2
----
ardour:Drum Submix/out 2
ardour:Bass/out 2
ardour:master/out 2
ardour:Vox FXout 2
ardour:Marty Guitar/out 2
ardour:Harry guitar/out 2
'Ere, what's all this then? Master outs in the master in? That ain't right!
So I click on the master/out 1 item, and it goes away. I click on the
master/out 2 item, and it goes away... but it brings back the master/out 1
item. WTF?
I open the master outputs, and see this:
out 1
-----
system:playback_1
system:playback_5
out 2
-----
system:playback_2
system:playback_6
Ports 1 and 2 are fine, but 5 and 6 go to the mixer. Odd, but it
shouldn't matter, since the mixer's got everything down right now.
Let me just remove playback_5, I don't need it. Now for 6... oh
sh!+, I take 6 out but it pops 5 back.
What's in the monitor input?
in 1
----
ardour:master/out 1
ardour:auditioner/out 1
in 2
----
ardour:master/out 2
ardour:auditioner/out 2
Auditioner? Do I use it? let's try and remove it.... Nope, I can
take one out but the other pops back.
Oddly enough, the real buses are fine. I can remove the monitor
inputs from the master outputs fine. It's only these odd ports that
I haven't used in the session.
I've opened other sessions and found the same problems. If I look at
the session.ardour file, there's no mention of the Auditioner or the
playback 5&6 ports.
Not weird enough for you yet?? I just opened the session under
another login on the system (non-root), and it's fine. No oddball
non-removeable ports, no feedback, no problems whatsoever.
Anyone got a clue as to what's happening here?

That would be jack_capture and not qarecord. In qarecord, you
must manually set ports.

Hello mates!
This time it's the b minor prelude from the first wtc. This is for Dave,
it's played using the hor, trombone and tuba of the bob orchestral brass.

This is nasty playing the voices seperated... :-( You wouldn't think, that
it took hours to do it... :-(
