Hello everyone!
From the tunes we're doing at packet-in.org, I have the strong suspicion a
sax player would be highly valued in our midst. I remembered then, tht Bob
plays the sax nicely. I still have a few of the songs done with MMA.
bob, would you join us? What we have at present is a bit of simple soul and
something slightly jazzy. Nothing to complicated, since RPM should be finished
by the end of the month. It would be very good. If someone else is interested?

Thanks and kind regards
Julien

I have the onboard card, used as the general listening device and a Lamba USB
running Debian Sid.
Problem 1: Websites, i.e. U-Tube, stopped playing. I believe this is a 3.2
kernel problem, they played in 3.1. Anyone encountered this? Whose bug?
Software such as Timidity and VLC did play in 3.2.
Problem 2: Line input to the ALC861 not functioning. Could be hardware but
these things usually do not die.
Problem 3: Jack will not start. Error is:
Thu Feb 9 11:49:46 2012: JACK server starting in realtime mode with priority

I am looking for a Linux application developed in java, php or C + + that
allows me to test in a network with different musical instruments. End
resulting
in the possibility of uniting the different instruments in a single file or

Hi all,
Connected with the remix competition I forwarded the other day, here's
a *free download* from Chordpunch of two live tracks, generated and
performed entirely in linux:
<http://chordpunch.com/2012/02/remix-competition-kiti-le-step-vs-mcld-ep-fre…>
Oh also, even better, the Strasbourg recording is live at RMLL (the
francophone Free Software conference), and the sound engineers for the
night were 100% free software too. (It was a lovely gig)

Reading the recent ipad/android thread made me think, is there any
chance JACK will run with low latency on the rasberry pi?
http://www.raspberrypi.org/faqs
it would really open doors... given it's size (and cost) one could make
some interesting portable headless systems

If this new user already has Ubuntu installed then perhaps a better option
would be KX Studio, as it can be installed as an overlay to an existing
installation. That said, it's probably not the friendliest install. Not
that it's hard to do, but it involves a few more steps than normal. It
sounds like your friend might be up to the task, though.
Cheers,
Ernie
IMO it will be hard to make him switch to AV when he is using ubuntu
already.
Not that its a bad idea to use AV for A and V ;-). But i still find gnome
more user friendly and ubuntu allows you to easily install other
non-AV-specific stuff.

This seems like a good suggestion. He's allready installed ubuntu
studio and is playing with it, I'll burn him AV 5.0.3 when it gets out
so he'll give it a try.
Well, actually I was surprised he was able to install ubuntu aside
windows, do internet and start playing with Ardour, all in a couple of
hours and without help or much prior knowledge - that definitely wasn't
my first linux experience years ago. Things have really gone a long way.
cheers,

Linux-...
Looking for A laptop that will perform well under linux.
Requirements...
* Must have graphics fast enough to run Unigine (my day job). Prefer
nVidia (higher quality drivers, easier to move systems between my
workstations and laptop)...
* Must be able to do low latency audio via firewire (I have a Presonus
firebox, a Presonus fp8 and a TI based firewire express card)
* Preferably has eSata
My discoveries thus far...
There are specialist audio dealers that have custom built laptops for 2k
to 2.5k even some in Australia.
Apple Mac Book pro seems to be the front runner in terms of off the
shelf performance but - Need to check out the firewire chipset before
purchase and it doesn't look like eSata is available
Dell would otherwise be interesting but tends to use the Ricoh chipset
for firewire which is concidered to have poor performance - is there
anybody here using one of these?
Lenovo -- lots of models that at least have an express card slot... Which
models have people got that work ok with a firewire express card?
System76 some interesting possibilities talked to one of there guys, said
they may take on my suggestion of providing a laptop with descent firewire.
everybody else
Either no firewire or problematic firewire chipsets, No express card
slot. No real market differenciation.
Other suggestions?
Hi, I've got a friend who would like to try out linux for audio and
he's asking me for help. He's totally new to linux and it's been a
while since I've used super-begginner's documentation, so I'm asking
you for help.
So, what distro should I reccomend him? is Ubuntu Studio 64 maintained
and well documented? Or better go with vanilla Ubuntu?
I know many like AVLinux, but I guess for a total newbie Ubuntu is
safer since it's easier to find docs online and help when you get stuck
with something (and sooner or later that happens when learning a new
OS).
Passed that, I'd like to point him to some good not-outdated
docs, bonus points if in italian. For starters a little
simple guide on setting up Qjackctl, maybe with screenshots, would be
gold.
Generally speaking, if you have any suggestions of things I should or
should not tell him, you're more than welcome.
BTW currently I think he's using fruity loops on windows.
Also, a while ago I had found an italian forum on linux audio, but now
I've lost it - anyone has a link?
cheers,
renato
