hi *!
sorry for the slightly off-topic post, but since spatial audio has been
a frequent topic lately, i think some people here might be interested.
linux or FLOSS won't be exactly in the limelight, but yours truly will
make sure there are at least 2-3 boxes with your favourite OS and audio
tools humming along in various places. oh, and you might come early and
watch a few high-end mixing consoles boot - the startup screen will
bring tears to your eyes (as will the price tag, unfortunately :)
unfortunately, there will have to be an admission fee, which we haven't
decided on yet. but we're trying to keep it reasonable. don't shout at
me when it turns out to be a bit more costly than LAC, though...

Summary:
The International Conference on Spatial Audio 2011 takes place from
November 10 to 13 at Detmold University of Music.
This expert‘s summit will examine current systems for multichannel audio
reproduction and complementing recording techniques, and discuss their
respective strengths and weaknesses.
Wavefield synthesis systems, a higher-order Ambisonics array, as well as
5.1/7.1 installations in diverse acoustic environments will be available
for comparative listening tests during the conference.
Structured plenary talks, paper and poster sessions will revisit
fundamentals and present latest research.
A series of workshops will be dedicated to practical implementations of
spatial sound capture and playback methods, and their esthetic and
psychoacoustical implications for music perception.
Concerts that include music specially arranged for the conference will
let you experience various spatial sound systems in "live" conditions.
Call for papers and music:
Your contributions are welcome, either as presentations, posters, or
workshops. Submissions will undergo a review process, and accepted
contributions will be published in the conference proceedings.
The conference language is English.
We are planning structured sessions on the following topics:
* Multichannel stereo
* Wave field synthesis
* Higher-order Ambisonics / spherical acoustics
* 3D systems
* Binaural techniques
An additional session will be dedicated to related miscellaneous
contributions, such as hybrid systems and perception/evaluation of
spatial music reproduction.
Hi all,
It's been online for a while, but with 4 weeks to go: the
conference-programme is now officially fixed:
http://lac.linuxaudio.org/2011/?page=program
and for your xPhone or googol-calendar:
http://lac.linuxaudio.org/2011/vcal.php
Should you attend LAC, please register if you have not done so:
http://lac.linuxaudio.org/2011/?page=registration
If you can not make it to Maynooth: live streams will be available
during the conference and the recordings and papers will also be
published online afterward.
Looking forward to seeing you in Maynooth!
PS. We are going to provide some printed copies of the programme at
the conference registration-desk, but if you wish to do a colorful print

Hi!
Oh dear, I definitely didn't have as many voices and stream configured. I
think in my best times I had 128 voices and 90 disk streams, which was always
fine for me. Even with the big piano, also the sampletekk Black Grand.
Bye bye
Julien

Hello Everyone!
I recently started having problems with my Linuxsampler. I've seen that ones
before at a friend's place, but never had it myself. I'm currently running
LinuxSampler 1.0.0.cvs10.
Especially when I load a big piano and use the sustain pedal, after a while
notes keep disappearing. I may hit them and hit them again and then they will
play. Even if I lift up on the pedal, the problem keeps persisting. I have to
completely reload the instrument, which is a bugger, since it takes ages. And
that way LS isn't useable anymore in recordings. It's not reliable. Does
anyone have an idea, why that is, if I may change something in my setup to
prevent that? Or is there a fix already?
Kindest regards
Julien

Has someone managed to get the JamVox USB system working on Linux?
The kernel seems to recognize the device and gives the following message

0.060.9 corrects an error on my part that resulted in a licensing anomaly.
Thanks to Adam Huffman for bringing it to light.
There's now yoshimi 0.060.9 in git (0.060 branch) and a tarball on
sourceforge,
<https://sourceforge.net/projects/yoshimi/files/>
cheers, Cal
--------------------
yoshimi-0.060.9
licence anomaly corrected.
yoshimi-0.060.8
Nothing too adventurous, just an incremental advance on 0.058.1 adding Paul's
Unison and Reverb enhancements, jack session support, panning inversion
corrections and assorted other tweaks and bug fixes.
How would one go about listing all flac files that have a bit depth of
greater than 16?
Since this info is stored in an id3 tag I can't seem to figure out how to go
about this.
Thanks for any input.

Probably a tall order, but if I have a non-MIDI keyboard, is there any
software that analyzes the audio and generates MIDI? For monophonic
noise at least? :)

Dear all,
My entry for the KVR One Synth Challenge 26
(http://sites.google.com/site/kvrosc/osc-26-zynaddsubfx):
*The Infinite Repeat - The Speeding Train*
http://linux.autostatic.com/images/2011-04/the_infinite_repeat-the_speeding…
As the One Synth Challenge rules dictate, all the instruments, sounds
and noises are generated by ZynAddSubFX. Well, almost, because as Linux
users we have some more choice than on other platforms. So I used 11
ZynAddSubFX-DSSI plug-ins in Qtractor together with 3 separate Yoshimi
instances for the voice patches that use the PADsynth engine (apparently
the DSSI plug-in can't handle those patches). I used seq24 to trigger
everything and Qtractor for mixing and a bit of mastering. Some external
effects were allowed, given they are freely available and don't alter
the original sound (so no phasers, choruses etc.). For this track I used
Calf gates, Calf EQ, SWH SC3 sidechain compressor, AMB panner, Calf
Vintage Delay, Freeverb reverb, Invada Stereo compressor and a fast
lookahead limiter.
Voice patches I used:
- SuperSaw (Paul Nasca)
- Extreme (Will J. Godfrey)
- Bass 2 (Paul Nasca)
- Eeooww (Will J. Godfrey)
- Drumkit (Paul Nasca, tweaked and layered, the snare sound consists of
4 or 5 different snare sounds)
- Snare 1 (M?sterious)
- Soft Kick (AutoStatic)
- 8 Bit Car (M?sterious)
- Soft Ahh (Will J. Godfrey)
- Wind and Surf (Will J. Godfrey)
- Binary Piano 2 (Paul Nasca)
The track was composed and sequenced on the train when commuting to and
from my work. Hence the title.
Best,
Jeremy
Greetings,
I've been working with Ardour3 on my laptop, a machine with an AMD
Turion X2 CPU and an nVidia 8200M integrated video chipset. Recently I
started monitoring my test recordings through the headphone output of my
UA25 and I notice that when I move the mouse it creates scratchy sounds,
though QJackCtl reports no xruns and my recordings are unaffected. I
verified the problem with Ardour2 and Mixbus. It doesn't occur when I
use the integrate audio chipset (snd-hda-intel, wahoo).
Running 'cat /proc/interrupts' reports that usb1/usb3 share interrupt 17
and usb2/usb4 share interrupt 16. I've tried switching ports around but
that didn't get rid of the noise. Any further suggestions ?
Best,
dp
