Desktop whole-screen audio/video recording

by Will Godfrey

I've just been taking a look at the user guide for RecordMyDesktop, which looks very simple and easy to use (has jack support). Does anyone have any experience of using this? Is there an equally easy way to add captions later? How about making a copy suitable for youtube? Should I be using something completely different? Am I asking too many questions? :) -- Will J Godfrey http://www.musically.me.uk Say you have a poem and I have a tune. Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.

unsubscribed?

by Renick Bell

It seems I was unsubscribed by someone today. I received this message: > linux-audio-user-bounces(a)lists.linuxaudio.org > 6:00 PM (2 hours ago) > to me > Goodbye. We hope you enjoyed the linux-audio-user list. I had not done anything to my membership, and I had no desire to be unsubscribed. Does anyone have any idea why this might have happened?

Small instrument hardware module

by rosea grammostola

Hi, Is it possible to install JACK etc. and for instance Pianoteq on a device like this, to create your own instrument module? http://www.rikomagic.com/en/product/showpro_id_58_pid_22.html Regards, Dirk

Re: [LAU] Embertone Friedlander Violin on Linux - was Re: Recommended near-realistic strings section generator?

by Aiyumi Moriya

Progress! I compiled JACK2 (64-bit, and also a 32-bit version because Dssi-VST Git needs it) and Dssi-VST Git. I put "$HOME/vst" in my "$VST_PATH" and made a symlink to "Kontakt 5.dll" as "$HOME/vst/kontakt5.dll" because Jack-dssi-host doesn't seem to like spaces in plugin filenames (quoting or escaping didn't work). I started JACK, then loaded the VST through Jack-dssi-host. $ jack-dssi-host dssi-vst.so:kontakt5.dll& Kontakt's VST loaded fine. A lot of JACK ports appeared (64 ports! O_O), automatically connected to "system:playback_*". I connected the Kontakt's JACK MIDI port to my keyboard's, and chose a freeware instrument (just for testing) from Kontakt's "Files" tab. It loaded as it should, and playing my keyboard produced the sounds just fine! Yes! I could even record the output by using Ecasound! ... However, I didn't have the same luck with the Friedlander Violin... Choosing an instrument from the "Files" tab doesn't work because it's encrypted and needs to be activated. It's a "Powered by Kontakt Player" instrument, and the option to activate it doesn't appear unless it's loaded through the "Add Library" button first. The problem is that when I try to "Add Library", Kontakt prompts me to choose the location where the library is installed, and when I select the directory, it gives me a "No library found" error. I'm sure I'm pointing to the right place (the directory containing the "Instruments" and "Samples" sub directories, the ".nkr" and the ".nicnt" files). Just to make sure, I followed exactly the same steps on Windows and the library loaded with no problems (but I didn't activate it because I want to do it on Linux!), though it was the standalone version instead of the VST. I hope this doesn't mean that adding libraries only work on the standalone interface, because on Wine I still can't get past the initial audio setup screen... Any ideas? I feel so close... -- ____________________ Blog: http://aiyumi.warpstar.net/

no sound from zyn

by Brian Sorahan

I'm relatively new to Arch, and tried to use zyn through jack for the first time last night but couldn't get any sound from it. I've mostly been an Ubuntu user in years past and never had this issue. Had to install a2jmidid to get midi note data to it from my midi keyboard, and that worked fine. Verified that my volume settings were OK by playing sound through jack from other programs. The level meters in zyn made it look like it was outputting sound, but nothing through my speakers. No error messages in qjackctl. I tried starting zyn from a terminal to see if it would print any errors, and saw nothing. I can't think of what to try next. Any suggestions?

Small instrument hardware module

by Dirk

Pianoteq doesn't have a ARM version and it ask pretty much CPU.The Intel NUC seems interesting... similar to a Mac Mini (?). Actually that's what I'm thinking of, an core duo core 2ghz Mac Mini. Afaik it is known to be a silent device and has firewire, that's a plus for me atm compared to the NUC. Maybe even nice to see what OSX offers me in terms of CPU usage, get a bit experience with OSX etc. Regards, Dirk

[SEMI-OT] Looking for simple audio project

by Philipp Überbacher

Hi there, I'm attending a basic multimedia on mobile devices course at university. During that course I'll have to do a small project, possibly together with one or two others. I want to do something audio related of course. The university staff is pretty much focused on video, so they won't be of much help. I'm looking for a reasonably low skill/work project idea. The problem is that I have to do this for iOS (hence the SEMI-OT). I wouldn't want to develop for or use that horrible platform but if I have to do it anyway I might as well get some audio coding experience. Maybe there is something that would be useful to port? Maybe there's some need for a iPad as remote control thingy? Or some little thing from scratch? Suggestions are welcome. Regards, Philipp
