Hi all,
I'm a bit stuck trying to figure this out... I want to run SooperLooper in
several laptops (in a laptop orchestra context), and be able to sync them.
The laptops will be connected to a local network (wifi, or possibly via
ethernet).
>From what I read, I could try doing this either with a MIDI clock, or with
Jack Transport (via NetJack? Though I don't need to send any audio to/from
laptops).
I've installed Rui's QmidiNet and QmidiCtl, but when I try to start them, I
get an error message (setsockopt(IP_ADD_MEMBERSHIP): Invalid argument;
socket(in): your kernel is probably missing multicast support.
).
Are these the right tools for the job? How can I send a MIDI clock to
several other laptops over a local network? Should I be trying NetJack
instead?
Any hints appreciated.... thanks!
Bruno
[*] I've ruled ou NetJack for Jack Transport sync, as it syncs all clients
to one soundcard, where in my case each laptop will be playing with their
own separate soundcard and speaker.
Hi there,
I didn't have access to the LA-lists for a number of months now, and the
list admin was not helpful. I subscribed with this crappy mail provider
now and hope that it will work. Sorry for advertisement and other crap
that might go along with it.
I do have some trouble setting up alsa the way I want it.
The machine is a laptop that I carry around and use at home.
What I want to have:
1) If on the road, the internal card (PCH) should be the default.
2) If at home, the usb card (UA25) should be the default.
I had this working rather reliably at some point, but it doesn't work
anymore.
I have the following in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf to prevent race
conditions on boot:
options snd slots=snd_usb_audio,snd_hda_intel
options snd_usb_audio index=0
options snd_hda_intel index=1
However, I experience weird things with /etc/asound.conf, it gets
overwritten on every boot with garbage.
This is what it looks like when I boot without external interface:
defaults.ctl.card 1
defaults.pcm.card 1
defaults.pcm.card 1
defaults.pcm.card 1
defaults.pcm.card 1
defaults.pcm.card 1
When the external interface is plugged in on boot, it looks somewhat
like this (off the top of my head):
defaults.ctl.card 0
defaults.pcm.card 1
defaults.ctl.card 1
defaults.pcm.card 0
defaults.pcm.card 1
defaults.pcm.card 1
defaults.pcm.card 1
defaults.pcm.card 1
Obviously total garbage, and I have no idea what service tries to be
smart here. Any ideas? At least ~/.asoundrc does not get overwritten.
Also, is there a reliable way to do what I want?
Right now I have this in my ~/.asoundrc, but it does not do what I
want. I suspected that alsa would set the only device actually there as
default, but it does not, so with this setup I have no sound on the
road:
defaults.ctl.card 0
defaults.pcm.card 0
Thanks in advance for your help.

hollunder
Ik krijg deze audio interface helaas niet aan de praat in Linux Studio.
Hij wordt wel herkend met het commando:
dmesg | grep usb.
Wie heeft tips voor mij ?
Hi all,
A quick question here.
AMS' VCF has two lowpass filter types - one with and one without resonance.
But when I use the resonance parameters, they seem to affect only if I
select the non-resonant lowpass.
Is it a bug or do I badly misunderstand something? I have been looking for
AMS' documentation on that VCF but no luck...
Thanks in advance for any info!

Hello.
Ardour 4 is out, as you surely know.
As usual since 6 or 7 years, still no possibilities to make a payment without paypal.Some of us don't want to use paypal.So you can't have a «ready to run» binary if you don't pay (fair, it's free as free speech, not free beer) but you can't pay.And now a new feature for the «you don't pay» users, a demo version that turns silent after 10 minutes (nice feature, really ! Amazing ! so clever to spend time on that, than to add a payment system)
So here is how i build from source on a Gnu/Debian Wheezy.
Open the tar file.
./waf configure --with-backend=alsa,jack --no-jack-metadata --prefix=/6_years/people/asking/paypal/alternative/so_hard_to_do
Adapt the options for you needs.You can see the options with :
/waf configure --help |less
Check the errors when you configure, and install the missing packages.Use your package manager accordingly to your Gnu/Linux distro.On Gnu/Debian, apt or aptitude.Add or remove packages if you already have them or not.The configure should tell you what you need/miss
aptitude -R install libraptor2-dev libsndfile1-dev libgnomecanvas2-dev libsigc++-2.0-dev libcairo2-dev liblrdf0-dev libfreetype6-dev libfftw3-dev libglibmm-2.4-dev libcairomm-1.0-dev libpangomm-1.4-dev libatkmm-1.6-dev libart2.0-cil-dev libgnomecanvasmm-2.6-dev liblo-dev librasqal3-dev libogg-dev libflac-dev libvorbis-dev libsamplerate0-dev libaudio-dev liblv2dynparam1-dev libserd-dev libsord-dev libsratom-dev liblilv-dev libsuil-dev librubberband-dev vamp-plugin-sdk libaubio-dev libjack-dev liblilv-dev
Once the configuration is done without errors :
./waf build -jX
X=thread your cpu can handle. example : ./waf build -j8Wait a little, it's fast on recent CPU with cores.
Then go to the directory you've declared in the configure --prefix=
For example :
cd 6_years/people/asking/paypal/alternative/so_hard_to_doYou'll find directories :
bin etc lib share
cd bin
./ardour4
Work perfectly on a Gnu/Debian Wheezy.
Best.
Hello,
I have compiled the Calf plugins from git, minutes ago. I use the
5-band equalizer and reverb w/o problems, using Ardour 3.5.403. I add
the envelope filter to a track and immediately press play. Ardour
vanishes instantly from the screen. Is this still a fftw bug ?
Cheers.
Hi,
Is there any software that can create a negative of the sound? I'm
thinking of taking an arbitrary frequency bandwith, pick a center and
invert it, so that bass becomes high, and high becomes bass? I have the
feeling this is an impossible task due to the nature of sound. But i
dreamed it up last night, so it HAS to be possible somehow, if i can
trust the comic books of the fifties containing TabletPC, space-rockets
and wireless phones. :D
In the dream, they would use some software similar to the ones used to
remove noise from audio, where you see an abstract colour representation
of the sound, and you can kindof "paint" out the undesired noise. Then
they would just, flip the coulours arround. We first listened to a drum
track (in the dream, yeah?), and the highhats would sound like kickdrum
and the kickdrum soundet a bit like highhats. Then they applied it on
the entire song track (still in a dream ok) and it sounded so good that
my enthusiasm woke me up...
Thankfull for any explanations and ideas,
Yours dreamfully,
