[linux-audio-user] CS46xx and .asoundrc magik...

by Russell Hanaghan

Using a Turtle Beach Santa Cruz card or should I say experimenting...on the 2.6.5mm-2 kernel from Thac's repository. I'm curious if I can get some additional discrete outputs in jack via the good ol' mystery .asoundrc file? I have wondered with all of these supposed 5.1 cards that have a rear and front as well as center channels as to why this is not possible? The one thing I see different about the Santa Cruz is that it seems to show dedicated pcm slots for center and rear in /proc/asound/pcm? Having 4 discreet outs on a 5.1 card would be usefull for some things me thinx. R~

Re: [linux-audio-user] regarding SCons

by Dave Phillips

Hi Steven: Forgive me for this late reply, I was in Karlsruhe when your message arrived. For the most part I had already discovered the answers to my original queries, but read on... ;-) >As Juan indicated, this behavior is supported by run "scons -c". >A number of other software packages that are beginning to use SCons set >up an alias in their SConscript files so you can still type "scons clean" >at the command line. > That would be good. We autotoolers are quite familiar with the 'make; make install; make clean' process... >> 3. No man pages, that sucks on a UNIX/Linux platform. The GNU >>autotools have them, SCons should have them too. >> >> > >How are you installing SCons? We do have a very thorough man page, but >it sounds like you've stumbled into a hole in the process that prevents >it from being installed. Can you help me understand what it is so we >can fix it? Is this from one of the SCons packages you downloaded, or >is it from the scons/ or scons-local/ package shipped internally with >CT or CSound? > This is an odd one. Apparently the install step is not installing the man page by default (someone else mentioned that they manually placed it in /usr/local/man). I downloaded, built, and installed the SCons package available from the home site, and I *think* I followed the instructions exactly. At any rate, SCons itself works perfectly. :) >> 4. No 'scons uninstall' ?? Again, if I'm missing it, please inform >>me how it's invoked. >> >> > >As Juan indicated, this is something the SConscript writer has to supply. > I guess that's okay. I'd be happy if it were de rigeur for autotools too... >> CT and Csound are now the only two apps on my system that use SCons. >>The maintainers of Csound couldn't make the autotools work for >>themselves, so now you must add downloading and installing SCons (and an >>up-to-date Python) >> >> > >SCons itself is very intentionally written to run on an old Python version >(1.5.2) so you don't have to install an up-to-date Python to use it. >CT and Csound may require later versions of Python to handle Python 2.x >code they've put in their SConscript files, though. > Mea culpa, sorry about that.

Your response is much appreciated, and I'll be sure to contact the SCons team if/when I run into any major difficulties. Best regards, Dave Phillips

[linux-audio-user] Linux Audio weblog

by Jan Weil

Sorry for cross-posting. Hi all, now that my new website is online I'd like to let you know that I recently added a 'Linux Audio' path to my weblog. This is meant as an offer to all those who find themselves continuously struggling with lots of postings to LA* & Co. Of course this can only stand for my point of view and I won't claim for completeness. http://www.jawebada.de/index.cgi/blog/lad Regards, Jan

[linux-audio-user] Alsa and RME HDSP Questions

by plessas＠mur.at

Hy there, i fooled around with getting my rme hdsp card to work under my 2.6.4 kernel in debian. There is some information i collected and i am confused somehow... If anyone has an idea to help me out I'd be glad to hear!! Current status: I am able to address my hdsp-multiface f.e. with the app hdspmixer, after having my box booting Win2k and doing a warm-reboot into debian running 2.6.4 kernel. This i found on the net: If you have a recent hdsp-card or if you are using a recent (December, 2002) driver in windows or macOS, you might have the wrong firmware installed. In order to make alsa-hdsp recognize the hdsp you have to downgrade the firmware of your card(bus) to revision 10 (0xa hex). (by klingt.org) Q: Is this still so? I'm using my Multiface with different computers, running Win2k, Mac OSX and Debian, so I'd like to be able to use the latest drivers (which also implies using the latest firmware i guess) Q: Where to get the firmware?? Q: Has the firmware get loaded via hdsploader after loading the modules, and how do you do it? a script? Anyway, i get: bigh:~/alsa-tools-1.0.4/hdsploader# ./hdsploader hdsploader - firmware loader for RME Hammerfall DSP cards Looking for HDSP + Multiface or Digiface cards : Card 0 : RME Hammerfall DSP + Multiface at 0xdfdf0000, irq 18 Upload firmware for card hw:0 Unable to open file '/usr/local/share/alsa/firmware/hdsploader/multiface_firmware_rev11.bin' for reading There is no alsa directory in: /usr/local/share/ I just compiled a 2.6.4 kernel and I don't feel i have to apt-get-install alsa since i'm glad to have alsa in my kernel finally... :-) (btw: if i'd install alsa via apt-get, would that overwrite crucial settings/files created by my 2.6.x kernel?) Thanks if anyone has time to help me out!!! Peter~ ------------------------------------------------- This mail sent through IMP: http://horde.org/imp/

[linux-audio-user] VXpocket 440

by Wade Winright

Hello all, I have finally made the choice in a card for my laptop, and got a VXPocket 440. Does anyone have any advice on using this card? The literature and specs from evrywhere I look says that it can use all 4 inputs, but when I fire up a mixer, I only see 2. Is this the case, of can that be modified? Any help would be great! Thanks, Wade

[linux-audio-user] gcdmaster

by Anahata

Having seen the recommendations for gcdmaster, and because my partner has lots of tapes she wants to archive to CD, I installed it on her (recent Debian snapshot) system. It worked very nicely for about 5-10 minutes and then crashed with a segfault, whilst editing track marks. Repeatedly. Anyone know what environmental factors can affect this? Somebody must have it running more stable than that to abe able to use it. The version of gcdmaster seems to be the latest - 1.1.7 Hardware: AMD Duron 1300, 512M RAM, onboard CMI sound chip, run-of-the-mill IDE drive. Lots of USB devices (printer, mouse, KB, scanner) Software: Kernel 2.4.25, Gnome 2.4 desktop. If it doesn't work we'll be back to doing it the hard way with Audacity, which at least works. I might try with a small enough audio file to fit all in memory, in case it's a VM problem. And better check there is a swap partition - I'm sure I installed one....! Any suggestions gratefully welcomed. PS just seen that version 1.1.8 is available. Better try that too... -- Anahata anahata(a)treewind.co.uk Tel: 01638 720444 http://www.treewind.co.uk Mob: 07976 263827

[linux-audio-user] Anyone got Linux Audio Conference photos?

by Daniel James

Hello, I've got to submit a magazine report on the Linux Audio Conference at ZKM by tomorrow, but I stupidly forgot to take my camera with me to the event, so I have no photos of my own. The photos have not been posted on the official site yet, so if anyone has decent print-quality images from the event that they could supply, I'd really appreciate it. In particular there were a few group photos taken which would be great, but at this stage anything would be good! Thanks Daniel
