Hi all,
As you may or may not have noticed,
linuxaudio.org was rebooted today 15:06 UTC.
The server now features shiny (faster) new virtual HDDs (with backups
and everything..). Sponsored by the Virginia Tech Department of Music
and DISIS.
Cheer a loud "Hip Hip,..." to Ico, who made it possible in the first
place and send Kudos to Brian Maloney from the vt.edu tech dept for
outstanding excellent GNU/Linux support!
All systems go.

It's fairly trivial to write one your own with python using scipy. Should
be in the ballpark of 20 lines or so.

which way I ought to go from here?"
"That depends a good deal on where you want to get to," said the Cat.
"I don't care much where--" said Alice.

Dear List,
I am forwarding this open position, since people on this list might be

The Center of Competence for Hearing Aid System Technology – HoerTech
gGmbH – is happy to announce a full-time job opening to expand its
research and development team at the earliest possible date. HoerTech is
a leading non-profit research institute in the field of audiological and
acoustical developments related to hearing systems. For a national
research project, we are seeking a qualified and motivated RESEARCH
ASSOCIATE (f/m) with established experience in scientific research in
either audio signal processing, physics, communications engineering,
or similar. The position will be concerned with the further development
of a software platform for hearing aid algorithms ("Master Hearing Aid")
and the development of novel hearing aid algorithms. Another focus can
be the co-development of auditory models for perceptual speech and audio
quality estimation. The opportunity to undertake a doctoral research at
the Oldenburg University is provided.

Hi *,
Is there a command-line tool akin to `sndfile-spectrogram` that
generates an image (preferably PNG) of an audio wave-form?
I found endless GUI apps, but command-line tools are scarce.

Hello everyone!
I've just completed my latest piece and it has reached its intended
audience, so I'm ready to post it here. It's called Raw Magic:
http://juliencoder.de/nama/raw_magic.ogghttp://juliencoder.de/nama/raw_magic.mp3
And you can find lyrics here:
http://juliencoder.de/nama/raw_magic.html
Or of course visit the music page at:
http://juliencoder.de/nama/music.html
This time I'd like to utter my heartfelt thanks to Joy Bausch, for guitars.
A nice job! I'd like to thank S. Massy, Gabbe Nord and the mysterious Mr.
Bennett for being my second pair (and third and fourth :-) - though not
necessarily in that order) of ears. Without you I'd still suffer from some of
my mixing difficulties. And I'd like to thank Silvia.
The beginning of that song the first four notes or so came to me in a small
bar in Paris almost two months ago now. I thought of some more notes there,
but they didn't sound right. :-) The other main idea followed later that day,
after having attended a concert by Goran Bregovic. So this piece again
stretches the boundaries of my usual influences. You'll find some light asian
influence, the balkaniser, simple piano music, light jazz, metal, glam-rock,
synth-pop and a bit of the good old prog all bundled into this. And it's not
because I didn't know, whereelse to put them. It's actually a study of some
rather personal experiences, seeing them from very different angles. I hope I
succeeded. :-)
I know, that my singing leaves somethig to be desired (better intonation for
a start :-) ), but I suspect, that it could have been worse.
As ever any feedback is welcome and a beer to those, who find the fun and
games in the lyrics. :-)
Kindest regards
Julien

Patchage + muse + zynaddsubfx failed to work.
No sound; except with Z's virtual keyboard.
Patchage freezed at some point.
How to get midi from muse to zynaddsubfx?
Please test the combo in your system.
Any other midi sequencer? Rosegarden failed to
install in Ubuntu (as well as GTK2 and SDL dev
packages grrrr!).

Hi Moshe,
Yup recent convert to Arch here, its a very nice way of keeping on top of
your linux distro: All options are available to you, config files are
*very* well laid out, and documentation is extremely good. For
configuration its really flexible, but it does require a certain amount of
config before its running optimally in my experience.
That said, configuring it is very easy and rewarding, it just does what you
tell it to do, without trying to be smarter than you and changing stuff for
you.
AVLinux is a more "polished" solution and you'll no doubt need less effort
to get it running, but then you've lost some control over how it works, and
you'll have to pray its good.
TangoStudio is Ubuntu based, and I had a pretty good experience there...
not very RT performance, but stable @ 20ms or so. Here on Arch I'm pushing
to 5ms, and getting pretty good results :)
I'ma happy Arch user, but its definatly not the distro for everyone... as
some Arch people put it: Arch doesn't find you, Archers find Arch

I'm sure I have this somewhere in my mail archive, but search can't find
it now ...
Have heard of something called the alsa-jack-plugin, but can't find it
anywhere. Have tried something else using something in .asoundrc (don't
remember what it was, it didn't work, so I got rid of the .asoundrc I
had created to try it - didn't have an .asoundrc file before).
My lovely wife would like to watch her Amazon movies on my 64-bit
desktop PC because it has the large LED monitor.
Stupid computers.
