I was very excited to find a video of the
complete
Tristan and Isolde on YouTube recently,
complete with
English subtitles.
I used the youtube-dl utility to grab the video,
but
when I began playing the copy on my hard-drive
with
totem, to my horror, the English subtitles
were
not there! To repeat, the subtitles are on
youtube.com but not in the .webm file that
I
downloaded with youtube-dl.
Can someone coach me how to download a version
with the English subtitles? Or are there subtitles
in my downloaded version and totem is just not
playing them?
Thank you for your help.
P.S. On the totem menu under View, there
is a
command called Subtitles
but this prompts me for
another file.
Is there a subtitle file in addition
to
the video file that I need to download from
youtube? Thanks again.
Hi all!
I found this old discussion about the Zoom R16 in the archive of LAU.
http://linuxaudio.org/mailarchive/lau/2012/3/14/188926
Strangely, in that archive there is a missing reply from Mr. Brett McCoy.
(You can find the missing one a the bottom of this archive:
http://linux-audio.4202.n7.nabble.com/Zoom-R16-td7748.html )
Mr. McCoy claims to have enabled the Zoom R8 (yes, there is quite a
difference between r16 and r8) as a multi-input soundcard for ardour and
also as a control surface in 12.04 64bits.
There is no information as to which driver is being in use in his post. And
searching the web only leads me to various WIP to get the R16 running on
linux.
My question is, has anyone got any news about this device and a possible
drivers?
Specifically to Mr. Brett McCoy: what driver did you use to make jack aware
of your r8?
Thank full for any hints, yours,

Hi all,
Sorry for cross-posting. I just finished complete update to the old and
good Ardour FLOSS Manual from 2009. All new screenshots (Ardour 3.5.403),
and I updated the text wherever necessary:
http://brunoruviaro.github.io/ardour3-floss-tutorial/
A few cosmetic changes still to be done, like removing the date from the
header of every post, but overall it's ready to use.
I'm using GitHub Pages, so it should be relatively easy for others to
contribute, fork, and remix the manual. In the near future I plan to add a
page explaining how to do so. Enjoy!
Cheers,
Bruno
Hello,
I am trying the KORG microStation editor (Windows app with Wine on
Linux Mint 17) and it has a connection with the synth and can change
some params, so that looks not too bad. I have a question regarding
those kinds of apps: it comes in one fix screen size. Is it possible
somehow with Wine to have it full screen or larger at least ?
Cheers.
Hi all,
This month I released my first solo album. It's been five years in the making
and recorded entirely with Ardour on Linux. Much like every other artist I
don't really like labelling myself but reviews so far usually refer to it as
Symphonic Prog like early Genesis, Yes and Camel.
Preview sampler: http://music.benjamesbell.com/patchwork.html
Now, I doubt this is going to raise much money, but as a thank you to the
Linux and Ardour communities and developers I've generated to discount codes
on Bandcamp. They're for a measly 5% off which is neither here nor there,
*BUT* more to the point, I'll track the sales which used it and donate $2
for each one to the Ardour project at the start of January.
The codes are "lad2014" for the digital version and "lad2014cd" for a
physical CD, and can be entered during the bandcamp purchase process.
The whole thing is also currently available for streaming if you're
interested but don't want to pay: http://patchworkcacophony.bandcamp.com/
Best of wishes,
Ben
Hi,
I wonder what headphone has a better sound quality than the
AKG K 240 DF and at the same time is that robust as this headphone.
I got my AKG around 30 years ago, when it was the most used and IMO best
studio headphone used in Germany. Within those decades there were
several better sounding headphones used in professional studios here
(but not in my home studio). All of them had a weak point. While you
can play soccer with the AKG K 240 DF without damaging it, those
headphones with a better sound quality, that still is relatively
neutral, so that they can be used for recording in addition to monitors
(not as a replacement for monitors ;), cause broken noise, once they
fall down from face value.
Is anybody aware about a modern headphone, that doesn't suffer from
fragileness and anyway sounds better than a 30 years old studio
headphone.
IIRC I asked this a few years ago on this list or somewhere else.
It's not Linux related, but at least related to audio production, so I
guess it's a valid request for this list ;).
I'm aware that the AKG K 240 DF and AKG K 240 still are used as
headphones in studios for the folks that make the music, but usually
it's not used by audio engineers any more. I can't pay for one of
those modern headphones that are often used, but get broken by soft
physical accidents.
Regards,
Ralf
PS: This request is related to a question from an audio consumer from
another Linux mailing list, asking me off-list, who wants to get a hint,
what headphone is a good headphone. In my experiences reliability and
best sound quality be in contrast. I don't know what headphone to
recommend. I stay with the AKG K 240 DF, if it should get
broken, I would buy the same headphone again, unless there's a
headphone with a better sound quality and that is as stable as old
headphones are. In my experiences the weakest point often is the
headphone amp, not the headphone, so what headphone to recommend might
also be related to the used gear.

hi,
I came to revisit my MOTU 828mk2 support in Linux; I first thought
everything is fine, but today in a rehearsal I was back to random
beeps and muted outputs.
So... I'm looking for a USB class compliant interface with at least 8
analog I/O, better if it has an additional ADAT input, works totally
reliable on Linux (I'm using Debian Jessie), and costs <1000 EUR.
Has anyone made good use of either of the following:
- - Roland UA-1610 Studio Capture
- - Roland UA-1010 Octa-Capture
- - MOTU 828x
- - MOTU 828 Mk III Hybrid
- - MOTU UltraLite MkIII Hybrid
- - Allen & Heath ICE-16
- - Steinberg UR824
- - Focusrite Scarlett 18i20
- - Phonic FireFly 808 U
- - Tascam 16x08
I was very happy with an RME Fireface UCX, and the Fireface UC would
be in my price class, but I couldn't see the ADATs, so it's a bit of
wasted money.
Also no tricks like heaving to boot under OS X to switch phantom power
and this kind of crap.
Thanks!
best, .h.h.

Hi list
It is not often people talk about metal music on this list, but I
thought somebody might find this interesting if for nothing else, then
for the tools used and the resulting production.
I would like to share an EP release from my band Seed of Heresy recorded
and mixed using Ardour on linux with the exception of vocals and guitar
tracking, which was done in another studio using proprietary non-linux
tools.
The EP is released under Creative Commons
Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International (CC-BY-NC-SA)
license and is available in several formats on the website:
http://www.seedofheresy.com
The release was done on December 21st 23:03, UTC, 2014, which is the
exact time of winter solstice.
The drums were performed by myself in the very same studio depicted in
the zthmusic interview I did back in january - and so are not DrumGizmo ;-)
Enjoy!
Kind regards
Bent Bisballe Nyeng
Hello all,
Merry Christmas and (soon) happy new year!
I was wondering if you guys would have a few advice for graphic card?
My laptop blew up a few days ago, so I'm building a pc to replace it
(haven't done that in years) - I'm not a gamer, the only things me and my
wife are doing are music production and photo editing, only running Linux.
Any advice between Radeon or GeForce? Which driver is good and doesn't
disturb Jack or audio latency?
Thanks in advance,
Aurélien
