controllerism on linux

by Renato

Hi all, any ideas/thoughts on how one would go about to make something similar to this on linux? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L2McDeSKiOU I'm speaking of the software side, i.e. supposing you have some midi knobs faders and buttons There's no single thing he does that's rocket science, the hard part IMHO is how to connect it all together so what approach would you take cheers renato

Sound driver data conversion..

by Basavaraj Hiremath

Hi,My Linux PC is connected to USB headset through USB Analyzer. I am sending pcm data to my USB headset(#cat file.wav > /dev/audio), when I look the packets in the USB analyzer, this data is different that the wave file data. Does Linux sound driver does data conversion from PCM to something else?My understanding is pcm is raw data, it should send to USB headphone to convert D/A(DAC). Could any one help on this information? Thanks,Raj Basavaraj Hiremath

How to make Jack remember soundcards, not alsa-slots

by ailo

...or to load devices into specific alsa-slots (hw:0, hw:1...) Does someone have a nice method to do one of these? Since I knew of no other method, I tried loading the cards into specific slots, according to this method found at planetccrma's home page: alias snd-card-0 snd-CARD_0 options snd-card-0 index=0 options snd-CARD_0 index=0 alias snd-card-1 snd-CARD_1 options snd-card-1 index=1 options snd-CARD_1 index=1 ... alias snd-card-N snd-CARD_N options snd-card-N index=N options snd-CARD_N index=N I have two m-audio delta devices and I never found a good way to configure alsa so they would load in a specific order. There was the problem of naming, since both cards have the same name. I think I would prefer the pulseaudio method, which remembers the card itself, not the alsa slot (I don't know anything about that, to be honest). Other things to consider is: More than 5 devices will be used, some of them usb midi (usb midi devices also appear in alsa sound slots). Two m-audio delta cards for audio input (8 + 4 inputs), and at least the sound cards need to always load in the same order with jack. Is it possible to get jack/alsa to remember the sound cards after reboot? -- ailo

Using gigedit

by Q

Hello Does anyone here know how to use gigedit? The LinuxSampler forum seems to be pretty much dead -- people post questions, but no-one knowledgeable replies. I've searched the forum, which is not an easy task because its "common word" filter seems to rule out everything I want to search for. The documentation and posts I have found are anything but clear. The areas I want to find out about are velocity curves -- specifically how to turn them off. For example, I want a LPF connected to the modwheel, but this also renders the filter velocity sensitive, which I don't want. The other main areas are how to change the order of instruments within a gig file (changing the MIDI program number has no effect and I don't want to have to start again from scratch assigning 350 samples) and how to get keyswitching to work. Can anyone give me any help trying to achieve these things in gigedit? Cheers Q

Does this whole story apply to Ubuntu 10.04 also? \r

Re: [LAU] [PD] L2Ork Pd update now available

That is because (afaik) vanilla 0.43 does not have apply undo at all. In other words apply actions that result from properties are simply ignored. In my case the way I am tracking items in undo is I seek selected items which now I realize is not the most robust way of doing so. That said, I did not make this fix to "hide the bug" but rather for the sake of consistency because I believe one needs to be in edit mode to edit, and getting properties for an object, particularly when there are many crammed near each other I believe one needs to select the item to reflect what they've selected, and then do operations that pertain to editing. I believe that allowing to edit items in this way while not in edit mode is essentially a bug from a usability perspective as it erases differentiation between performance (or whatever you will call it) and editing mode. All that said, I need to reconsider how to deal with undo and I have a pretty good idea now what needs to be done (e.g. by passing obj pointer to the undo in addition to the canvas pointer)...
