The vmpk screencast shows both the keyboard notes and the staff notation notes http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f_jlej7cnQA How to get the staff notation? Is there any other better app to teach music ie notation to keyboard mapping?

Robin Gareus' Ninjam jack transport fix

by Andrew C

Hey all, Dunno how many people use Ninjam, but to any that do (and are using Tobias Gehrig's/Robin Gareus' patches to the linux version), are you experiencing the jack transport timer reseting itself to 0:00:000 when an interval finishes or is my jack version (0.120.1) going crazy? Downside to this is that hydrogen starts sounding out of time with the metronome. Cheers, Andrew.

[OT] RIP Dennis Ritchie

by Lorenzo Sutton

It seems Dennis Ritchie [1] passed away last week end. He was the inventor of the C programming language and core developer of UNIX. I guess we are all relying in some way or another on this man's research and inventions in our 'contemporary computer lives'. Lorenzo. [1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dennis_Ritchie

Fall tunes

by Egor Sanin

Good morning, I would like to share a recording I made recently. These wonderful autumn days inspire a relaxed tinge of sweet melancholy. This is one of my first complete pieces. I know, I know, the guitar is sloppy. I welcome all criticism! Soundcloud: http://soundcloud.com/cheburazavr/cheburazavr-breathoffall Direct download: http://soundcloud.com/cheburazavr/cheburazavr-breathoffall/download I try to use console tools exclusively. I used midish for sequencing, ecasound for recording and mixing, and linuxsampler for the drums. I used my e-mu Proteus for the bells and the other sound in there. Thanks to Julien Claassen for letting me pick his brain!

New Music: Shout - the song, that shall

by Julien Claassen

Greetings everyone! I finished a new piece last week and now I feel it may be time to post it here an hope, that you might enjoy it. http://juliencoder.de/nama/shout.ogg Or: http://juliencoder.de/nama/shout.mp3 Lyrics are here: http://juliencoder.de/nama/shout.html Or take a look at: http://juliencoder.de/nama/music.html This piece was my own first, real colaborative finished work. I'm very grateful to Silvia for the samples and much more than that. Thanks go to Joy Bausch for playing the ukulele and electric guitar. Last but not least thanks go to Mr. Bennett for playing the lap steel. It was wonderful work, that you all put into it. For the gear heads amongst us here is a list of used equipment in software and hardware. Linuxsampler for Drums, the Gigatron - thanks Q for a wonderful sample-library! -, the Rhodes and Wurlitzer e-pianos, the grand piano and the glockenspiel and trumpets. Fluidsynth was used for the bass and Beatrix had its own very organ-ic part in it. The Roland XP-30 for orchestral sounds, tron-dubling and windchimes. The Korg TR-76 for percussion and the bell-type sound. The Clavia Norlead3 for additional synth solo sounds and the Waldorf Microwave XT for sub-bass, the sparkly filter sweep and some additional synth backing. And of course my trusty old Clav. Nama did all the recording, processing and mixing/mastering! Thanks Joel for again investigating so much time and well-directed effort into Nama! It paid greatly for my work. Loads of LADSPA plugins of course for effects! Jconvolver and csound saw to some good reverbs and roomy impressions. Joy's guitar was also recorded in Nama, Mr. Bennetts lap steel was recorded and slightly preprocessed in Ardour. Soundstretch did some slight pitch correction on some of the guitars, because they wouldn't fit in some parts. Don't ask me why, they were OK, when they were recorded for one part. So that's about it. Comments and feedback is, as ever, welcome. Main thing though, that you might enjoy it.

Re: [LAU] Recommended USB interface with 2 XLR inputs?

by Bernardo Barros

Clemens: when I don't press the "1" button while connecting the device (USB2 mode I guess) It shows up correctly as a device, but I get errors trying to play a sound in audacity or trying to connect with jack.

Re: [LAU] Audio Class 2.0 with Sound Devices USBPre2 (was: Recommended USB interface with 2 XLR inputs?)

by Clemens Ladisch

As long as the driver does not know that it needs to switch to the second configuration, it will use the first one. The only difference between the two audio class 1 configurations is that the "1" one has bInterval=1 for all endpoints while the other one has bInterval=4. This seems to trip up the driver; please show any error messages that show up in the system log (/var/log/messages or the output of dmesg) when you try to play something. We also need a quirk to enable the audio class 2.0 configuration. (This isn't really device-specific; this should probably be done for all devices with two such configurations.) Regards, Clemens

Audio class 2.0 should work with Linux 2.6.35 (but an even newer kernel wouldn't hurt). Which kernel version are you using? Regards, Clemens

>From the website: Class Compliant Drivers As a class-compliant audio device, the USBPre 2 is limited to a maximum data rate of 24-bit, 48 kHz in Windows, Linux, and Mac OS versions 10.4 to 10.5.7. Mac OS 10.5.8 and higher support the audio class 2.0 device and can address the USBPre 2 up to 24-bit, 192 kHz.
