Hi Albert,
I don't want to be a nuisance, but there's been no news for a long time, and I'm
wondering what the situation is.

Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
Hi all,
I have an mp3 file which is a full album, but I want to have each track as
a separate file.
Can I use Audacity - or some other application - to do the splitting?
I specifically would like a solution that does not decode the mp3 to PCM
data (.wav) and in the end I have to re-encode it as mp3, because this 2nd
compression would probably worsen significantly the sound quality.
Thank you and have a wonderful new year's eve!

> Is CentOS good for audio stuff?
CentOS tends to use HORRIBLY outdated versions of software.
after my daily experience with CentOS-based servers, i would not.
Hi,
I'm thinking about switching to CentOS (from Ubuntu) at home,
because of several reasons, but wonder: is it good for running Ardour,
Jack and related stuff? I don't mind using Ardour 2, as I don't need
anything very sophisticated, and would only want something that I can
configure once and stop worrying about. I do sysadmin work for a living,
and would rather not do it when I get home :-)
Thanks in advance,

Just bringing the news...
http://kxstudio.sourceforge.net/News/?action=view&url=carla-20-beta3-is-here
This is the 3rd beta of the upcoming Carla 2.0 release.
There have been quite a few nice features implemented since beta2.
- Internal patchbay mode
- Carla as VST plugin (Linux only)
- Carla LMMS plugin
- New and updated skins
- Old non-skin mode
To download binaries or source code, jump into the KXStudio downloads
section. [1]
If you're using the KXStudio repositories, you can simply install
"carla-git" instead (plus "carla-lv2" and "carla-vst" if you're so
inclined).
Bug reports and feature requests are welcome! Jump into the Carla's
Github project page for those. [2]
See the top link for more details and screenshots.

Again, a Bug-fix release is out which is aimed to stabilize the experience.
* fix some rcstyle bugs for gtk-2.24.25 and maybe fixed them for KDE
as well
* allow load of preset-files witch contain Denormal Numbers (flush to
zero)
* add warning when denormal value found in preset file
* if parameter is out of range, set it to the default value
* add missing Icons to glade-gxw
* add wavesharper plugin
* use long int to compare regions size in gx_mlock.cc -> (Gcc: 4.9.2)

enjoy.
I am happy to announce Nama version 1.203. With this
release, the effects-handling code has been fully converted
to Nama's OO model and several issues resolved.
* fix spurious reconfiguration
* effect chains apply parameters
* restore playback position to zero after recording
* kill Ecasound on exit in NetECI mode
* correctly handle user effect addressing (aliases and effect chain affiliation)
* fix drift in Master track volume
* add CONTRIBUTORS to man page
* add-effect/remove-effect accepts effect chain name as well as effect ID
* fix parsing of Ecasound chain operator parameter names
For users, the add-effect and remove-effect commands will
now work on effect chains as well as simple effects. Effects
can be addressed by effect ID, user alias or effect code.
Some bus-related commands have been renamed to conform
standard terminology.
For those who care to prod and hack the sources, Nama's
variables, defined in src/var_*, are now documented in
var_overview.[1]
I welcome feedback from any tire-kicking, torture-testing
etc.
Thanks to the Linux audio community, to Kai Vehmanen for
Ecasound and to Nama's user community for their invaluable
assistance.
DESCRIPTION
===========
Nama is a digital audio workstation. It is suitable for
multitrack recording, effects-processing, editing, mixing,
and other audio tasks. Nama uses Ecasound, developed by Kai
Vehmanen, for audio processing. Nama hosts LADSPA and LV2
plugins, Ecasound effects and controllers. It works well
under JACK and ALSA.
New projects begin with a mixer, and may include tracks,
takes, buses, effects, sends, inserts, marks, regions,
fades, edits, sequences and submixes, with mixdown to wav,
ogg, mp3.
Nama has a full-featured command interpreter with TAB
completion, keyword help and command history; a hotkey mode
for tweaking effect parameters, a Tk-based GUI, and project
management (history, branching, tags) based on git.
INSTALLATION
============
The easiest way to install Nama, is using a CPAN
client such as cpan or cpanm:
cpanm Audio::Nama
PERL_MM_USE_DEFAULT=1 cpan Audio::Nama
Other dependencies are Ecasound, LADSPA SDK (for LADSPA
plugin support), LILV utilities (for LV2 plugin support),
and midish (for MIDI capabilities).

Hello all,
The first release of pyjacktools is now available at
<http://kokkinizita.linuxaudio.org/linuxaudio/downloads>
Python C++ extensions and classes for audio. I wanted to demo
these during the Audio Measurements workshop at LAC 2014, but
we ran out of time...
AudioFile
Read/write audio files to/from numpy arrays. Reads anything
libsndfile can read, and writes wav, wavex, amb, aiff, caf
and flac, any number of channels.
JackControl
Simple Jack client allowing to connect arbitrary ports and
control Jack transport.
JackPlayer
Multichannel (up to 64) audio file player. The interface is
deliberately kept low level, but it's easy to create derived
classes providing a higher level interface. This is the player
used in the automated systems at La Casa del Suono in Parma.
JackSignals
Generate and capture arbitrary test signals from/to numpy
arrays. Combined with numpy, matplotlib, pyqt, etc. this
can be used to create anything from a simple measurement
to sophisticated automated test systems.
All four classes are documented using Python docstrings (use
Python's help function to read these). Some simple examples
are provided as well.
The C++ extenstions should work with either Python 3.x or
2.7. The Python code is tested using Python 3.4, but will
probably work even with 2.7. If not the required changes
should be minimal.
To install you need the Python setuptools, then just make
and sudo make install. The examples require numpy and for
some also matplotlib.
Enjoy !
