Hello all!
Well I can't demonstrate laziness and unproductivity, when there's so much
creativity and new music around. So I've done another Johann Sebastian. Again
it's an arrangement of a praelude from teh Well Tempered Clavier.
It the Praelude in E Major from WTC Book I. Instruments used:
Aeolus
LinuxSampler with the PMI Historic Keyboards harpsichord
Korg Triton for strings and oboe
jconv for the reverb
AND OF COURSE
Nama for the recording.
The piece is here:

As always flamings, patting of the soul and other feedback is welcome!
Kindest regards and enjoy
Julien

Hi everybody,
I have a M-Audio Delta 1010LT and use 64Studio 3.0 Beta. Basically
everything works fine, but I have two questions, regarding the
envy24control:
My 1010LT manual states, that the output level of my soundcard can be
set through envy24control to different levels: +4dBu, Consumer, and
-10dBV. However, these buttons are missing in envy24control. Is it
possible to set these levels with envy24control? The same question has
already been posted two years ago
(http://www.nabble.com/Delta-1010LT-Variable-Input---Output-levels--tp129199…), but did not receive a reply. Also some forum mention a IPGA analog volume, which I cannot find in envy24control (see http://www.nabble.com/alsa-and-delta-1010lt-trouble-td10379972.html).
My second question is about the range of the faders. I want to record
music via a mic, which is connected to a preamp which is in turn
connected to the XLR1 input. The Fader responsible in envy24control is
ADC0, and has a range from 0 to 163. What does this range mean? Is it
just attenuation? Which would be the optimal setting in terms of keeping
noise low (I can set the output of my mic-preamp accordingly)?
Thank you for your help,
Markus
Hello,
I had the same worries that you have when I was going to buy an interface
for my linux audio computer, so I may help you.
Let me tell you that the 610 is meant to solve all the problems of the 410
in which it's based and which is mostly incompatible with any system,
including Windows and Mac. And since M-Audio wont release give support for
linux, I would take a chance with that interface.
Firewire interfaces are somewhat difficult to put to work in Linux, but if
you take a look in ffado.rog you'll notice there are some that look very
good that have similar characteristics and of the M-Audio 610:
ECHO Audio Fire 4
http://www.echoaudio.com/Products/FireWire/AudioFire4/index.php
Edirol FA-66
http://www.rolandus.com/products/productdetails.php?ProductId=731&ParentId=…
Edirol FA-101
http://www.rolandus.com/products/productdetails.php?ProductId=702&ParentId=…
Among others. The rest you can find here:
http://www.ffado.org/?q=devicesupport%2Flist&filter0=&filter1=&op2=OR&filte…
Check Focusrite which they have send to ffado directly so they can test them
for compatibility and also is the company that makes pre-amps for Digidesign
of Pro-tools.
I never tried this interfaces, but I'm sure there are several users that can
tell you about them in the list.
On the other hand, I decided to buy the M-Audio Fast Track Pro an USB
interface that worked out of the box in linux. In my little knowledge, I've
heard that USB audio interfaces work better on linux.
Anything else I can help you just write me.
Saludos from Colombia.

Hello all!
As promised here's another Bach. I don't know when I'll get to the third.
But soon enough it should be.
Thuis is the invention in C major, played on a Hammerpiano, thanks to
LinuxSampler and PMI's historic keyboards again. Just a little reverb added
with jconv and that was it.
You can find it here:

Enjoy!
Kindest regards
Julien

Four-band parametric equaliser LV2 plugin. DSP code by Fons Adriaensen.
Homepage: http://nedko.arnaudov.name/soft/lv2fil/
Screenshot: http://nedko.arnaudov.name/soft/lv2fil/lv2fil.png
Tarball download:
http://nedko.arnaudov.name/soft/lv2fil/lv2fil-2.0.tar.bz2http://nedko.arnaudov.name/soft/lv2fil/lv2fil-2.0.tar.bz2.sig
= Overview =
Stereo and mono LV2 plugins, four-band parametric equalisers.
Each section has an active/bypass switch, frequency, bandwidth and
gain controls. There is also a global bypass switch and gain control.
= DSP =
The 2nd order resonant filters are implemented using a Mitra-Regalia
style lattice filter, which has the nice property of being stable
even while parameters are being changed.
All switches and controls are internally smoothed, so they can be
used 'live' whithout any clicks or zipper noises. This should make
this plugin a good candidate for use in systems that allow automation
of plugin control ports, such as Ardour, or for stage use.
= GUI =
The GUI provides knobs and toggle buttons for tweaking filter
parameters. It also provides frequency response widget with
differently coloured curve for each section and separate curve for
total equalization effect.
The GUI uses the External UI extension. lv2rack (part of zynjacku)
supports this extension. Ardour-2.8 needs patch to support the
external UI extension.

Hi all,
Be good to get some feedback on this one - a throwaway pop/punk song -
recorded in Ardour with me doing all the parts (guitar and bass both
through a V-Amp2 - maybe not the best choice for the bass!), drums with
Hydrogen, and vocals through a Samson C01 and a Behringer Minimic 800
into the line of a SBLive. This is a very rough mix - the drums sound
way too weedy, and I think the vocals may be too far forward (and seem a
bit separated from the rest of the track), but I would welcome any thoughts!

This comes up periodically. Here is the status in my mind--Scoring programs:
Mscore (musescore) -- promises to be the linux opensource Noteworthy or
Sibelius. No upgrades recently; had stability problems. Author made UI
decisions I would not have made which does not make them bad or wrong. Does
its own engraving, quite nicely if one could only get the whole song done.
QT4--had some speed problems scrolling large scores.
Nted -- one of the successors to Noteedit. This is being continuously upgraded
and work nicely, is WYSIWYG, does it own engraving, but can also run Lilypond.
Fairly complete. Still a few annoyances that stop me cold in some scores.
Canorus -- the other successor to Noteedit. Have not heard anything on this
one lately. Last version was not ready to play.
Denemo -- GUI WYSIWYG front end for lilypond. Latest and greatest claims to be
ready to play but I cannot compile it on my Debian box. Versions in the repos
are very old and very useless.
Rosegarden -- most developed of the Linux MIDI/audio all-in-ones. Is a KDE3
app which will not run on KDE4. Found its scoring part very difficult to use.
Note that most all of these start off with restfull measures. Fine for
entering notes but problematic for editing or moving note-sequences around.
Most of these do MusicXML which means one can transfer data among them.
All said and done, the one in which I know I can start a song and actually
finish it is ... Noteedit, the old KDE3 program which will run fine on KDE4
(ignore any error messages). Notedit cannot copy and paste but one can enter
notes any way one wants and worry about rebarring/rebeaming later on. It
outputs to Lilypond (there are sometimes errors) and MusicXML (as well as MIDI
and ABC). Its XML is missing chord-names and when imported into mscore, that
feature will be unsavable there as well.
Lilypond frontends (if you want to get into its command language--sort of a
cryptic blend of TeX and LISP):
(Denemo is a GUI/previewing score program, above, not a command editor.)
Lied -- a Lilypond markup editor with loads of huge dropdown menus for
entering commands. Compiled with Fastlight. FL supports UTF8 but lied will not
display non-Latin characters correctly.
Frescobaldi -- funny name for a nice python frontend with a preview pane.
Latest and greatest segfaults on my box but this is a promising program for
diehards that want to edit Lilypond files directly!
Kate-plugin -- for KDE Kate users, there is a plugin for editing Lilypond
files. I have not tried it.
I'm trying to find some hardware that has 6 or more audio inputs, a USB
interface and Linux drivers. I've been trawling through the support
lists on http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Matrix:Main, so far
with no luck.
Does anyone here do multitrack recording with a USB interface?
Cheers,
Phil
Hi,
I've been working on a modular synth builder for a while and I've just
put the first release up on SourceForge:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=262459&package_id=322…
(It requires slv2, GooCanvas 0.14, and the ladspa-swh-plugins if you
want to build it.)
There are also some screenshots here (the second one shows the created
synth in use):
https://sourceforge.net/project/screenshots.php?group_id=262459
This is all pre-alpha stuff so don't expect it to work that well yet (or
even compile easily!). It can only create fairly basic synths at
present.
I could do with some help checking over the basic architecture and
prioritising future work, so join the mailing list on sourceforge if you
want to get involved.

Howdy,
New to the list and I pretty new in the Linux Audio word. Yet I'm about to
build up a home-studio config.
I would like to double check whether the audio interface i have selected is
fully supported under Linux:
M-Audio ProFire 610: http://www.m-audio.com/products/en_us/ProFire610.html
Or if you could point me out another one, it would be nice too.
Many Thanks,
Sylvain
