Hi Tom, I just went fine with the instructions on the jack-faq-page (http://jackaudio.org/faq). Did you add these lines to your /etc/security/limits.conf ?: ------------------ @audio - rtprio 99 @audio - memlock unlimited @audio - nice -19 ------------------ Do not forget to add yourself to the group 'audio' and re-login. This in combination with the rt-kernel works great for me.

[LAU] [Fwd: [Fwd: Re: Improvisor lilypond support!?]]

by Grammostola Rosea

This is an very interesting application, and it is released as GPL software. The only drawback on GNU/Linux is that sound is not working very well, at least in my experience: http://linuxmusicians.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=860 I dunno if there is a way to get better sound out of java applications. Maybe some devs can help this application with ALSA and/or Jack support? Kind regards, \r

[LAU] Hard lock-ups -- Trying to narrow the cause

by Darren Landrum

For the past 6-8 months, I've been having issues with hard lock-ups on my computer. Strangely enough, they occur the most, and are predictable, when I'm playing back longer Flash videos in a browser (watching Leo Laporte's live TV stream is a guaranteed show-stopper). It all started when I got my new Echo MiaMIDI card. At first I thought it was a bad card, but it ran just fine in another machine for about a week or so, no issues. Now I'm trying to determine if there is some kind of driver issue or maybe a driver conflict. First off, I'd like to mention that every time I install a new Linux distro, it's a major chore getting this card working, as it involves compiling ALSA from source. I'm running the latest Ubuntu Studio at the moment, and even though they included a driver for the Mia, it didn't seem to load right, even though modprobe didn't complain, and restarting the computer caused yet another lock-up. At the moment, I went ahead and compiled the driver from 1.0.18a sources myself, along with the firmware, installed that, and even though I've run into a few hiccups (a lock-up during boot being one), the card is functioning at the moment. I'm also skipping the proprietary NVidia driver for a period of time, just to see if that (or a conflict with it) might be the cause. I seem to remember a number of people having some interesting issues using higher-end cards with PulseAudio. I'm beginning to wonder now if Pulse might be my primary culprit. If that be the case, since I don't really want it around anyway, does anyone have a pointer to any instructions on how it might be removed from Ubuntu Studio 9.04? If I do end up removing Pulse, that does leave me with a bit of an issue, as the Echo drivers don't do any sound mixing from different applications asking for the driver. So, I'll need a sound daemon of some sort in order for the computer to continue to be usable. Thank you very much for any help. Regards, Darren Landrum

I pasted the current solo together out of an improv. Btw, there's a slightly revised version on-line now. I'm not too unhappy with it, I really didn't want a stereotyped blues guitar solo, so I tried to make something a little more neurotic, but hopefully still bluesy. In the end though I'm just not an especially good lead player. Best, dp

[LAU] Goed nieuws! Especially for the Dutch speaking: special linux audio forum part on homerecording.be !

by rosea grammostola

(Nederlandstalig linux forum gedeelte op homerecording.be >>> http://www.homerecording.be/forum/f43/ !) Hi, Thanks to the LAU mailinglist, I've discovered the possibilities of Linux for producing music in the last two years. But it seems I'm a bit of a special case in The Netherlands... most people seems to use Mac or Windows for music production, even people who prefer Linux as their main OS... To change it a bit, I helped people on Linux forums and wrote a dutch tutorial for Qjackctl and Ardour. I also posted my enthusiasm and knowledge on 'not-linux' forums... got a lot negative reactions, but not on www.homerecording.be. The had a open mind for opensource software... and after posting some posts there, they have decided to open a special subforum for making music on Linux! :) (Windows and Mac can't say that...) It would be cool if dutch speaking people will support this forum part by taking a look at it reguarly and to post some messages, moreover to help people with making music on GNU/Linux! You can find the forum here: http://www.homerecording.be/forum/f43/ CU there! \r

[LAU] Pulseaudio, Dave's Ubuntu review....

by Grammostola Rosea

Hi, All Ubuntu users (GNome) seems to do all kind of hacks to remove or disable pulseaudio. Also Dave names it as a solution to work with pulseaudio on Ubuntu Studio. AFAIK you can solve this whole thing by: $ pasuspender qjackctl If I'm right, we should find new ways to prevent having all those myths in the world of Linux audio. I suggest to ask a questions directly to the people who knows everything about it (in this case the pulseaudio devs) before having all kind of user experiences and common sense views... \r

[LAU] tuxpower! 1 revisited

by hollunder＠gmx.at

Hi there, I stumbled upon this oldish Album from 2004 [1] and got annoyed that it wasn't properly named or tagged at all, so I did it and thought I could make it available. I'm talking only talking about the flac version here, haven't even looked at the vorbis version. Differences: Tracks are named Tracks are tagged, including license Information Replaygained (but it seems like it went through some kind of lossy replaygain process before since Album- and Track-gain seem to be equal) For anyone interested it can be found here: http://mufu.diokhan.at/public/tuxpower-flac.tar (362MB) Maybe this version could be hosted here [1] instead of the unnamed one? I won't host it for long. [1] http://linuxaudio.org/music/vol1 Regards, Philipp
