[linux-audio-user] Linux Sound Software, francophone mailing list

by Ismael Valladolid Torres

The [1]Linux Audio Development web site talks about this mailing list, unfortunately [2]the linked homepage seem to be under construction. As I am learning both the french language, and Linux audio development, being subscribed to that mailing list, if exists, would be very useful for me. Any feedback is welcome, thanks in advance. Cordially, Ismael 1. http://www.linuxdj.com/audio/lad/resourceslists.php3 2. http://membres.lycos.fr/linuxsound/

[linux-audio-user] Trouble running Jack with Emagic Emi 6|2m

by Jorma R

Hi, I am having a bit of trouble running Jack with the Emagic Emi 6|2m USB audio box. The device works well with 2 inputs and 2 outputs at 96/24 or less. It also works well with all 6 inputs and 2 outputs at 44.1/16. Starting Jack makes the Emi correctly set the sample rate and the bit depth. The problem is that when 6 channels are recorded with 24-bit depth the Emi is able to provide 2 16-bit output channels at 44.1 KHz or no output at 48 KHz. Running jack with no -C or -P options tries to record 6 channels and play back 2 channels at 24-bith which is impossible by the hardware. As a result I get a lot of noise and mix-ups in the audio when trying to record or play back something. So - I would need to be able to tell jack to open the capture ports at 24-bit and playback at 16-bit. Any ideas on how to do this? Could I possibly create aliases for the capture and playback with the desired options in my .aousndrc and use them with the Jack -C and -P switches? If yes - how? I heard that ecasound does use the card correctly so there should not be anything wrong with the driver. Below is what /proc/asound/card1/stream0 says.

[linux-audio-user] volume plugin

by Oliver Gerlich

Hello, my onboard sound chip (CMedia 9739, on Epox 8RDA3+, with nforce2 chipset) doesn't support volume changing in hardware (CMedia's cmaudio driver for OSS does all the volume calculation in software). That means that I'm unable to change the volume with alsamixer or similar programs. Now my question: is it possible to tell Alsa to change the volume in software? Is there a plugin that does this? I've already tried the "Route & Volume" plugin, but it doesn't do anything. XMMS plays sound still at full volume, and mplayer says "alsa-control: error setting left channel, Invalid argument" when changing volume. My asound.conf entry for it looks like this: pcm.nforcevol { type route slave { pcm "hw:0,0" channels 2 } ttable.0.0 1; ttable.1.1 1; } Does anyone has an idea how to get volume control? Btw. I'm using the snd-intel8x0 driver for this chip. Thanks in advance, Oliver Gerlich

RE: [linux-audio-user] Cheap PCI MIDI interface

by Matthew Allen

Maybe it has something to do with my switch to linux being pretty recent(last 6 months)? I have used the Midisports under Windows for a while now, always keeping up to date with the latest drivers/firmware on the windows side. m. > -----Original Message----- > From: linux-audio-user-bounces(a)music.columbia.edu [mailto:linux-audio- > user-bounces(a)music.columbia.edu] On Behalf Of Fernando Pablo Lopez-Lezcano > Sent: Monday, April 05, 2004 11:48 AM > > > Ahh!

Ahh! The planet comes through again. Sorry about the wrong info then!

RE: [linux-audio-user] Cheap PCI MIDI interface

by Matthew Allen

That said, I have never had to mess with firmware or anything weird with either my midisport 8x8 or 2x2. Don't ask me why, I just turn them on (8x8) or plug them in (2x2) after I boot and they come up just fine. Fedora core, running the planet ccrma kernel. m. > -----Original Message----- > From: linux-audio-user-bounces(a)music.columbia.edu [mailto:linux-audio- > user-bounces(a)music.columbia.edu] On Behalf Of Frank Barknecht > > BTW: I would stay clear from the M-Audio midi devices, not because > they wouldn't work (AFAIK they do) but you'll have to fiddle with > firmware loaders and such.

[linux-audio-user] VXPocket v2 help please

by Jonathan Beilin

I have a VXPocket v2 PCMCIA soundcard. I got pcmcia-cs working just fine and followed all the ALSA install instructions on the alsa-project. I started the pcmcia service and started alsasound. /proc/asound lists card0 (i8x0) and card1 (vxpocket). cat devices lists, for card 1, 32: [1- 0]: ctl 36: [1- 0]: hardware dependent . aplay -l lists no playback for this card, and alsamixer reports no mixer elems found for the card. xmms output plugin, predictably, also lacks an option to output to the card. any idea what's wrong? gentoo, running kernel 2.6.4-mm1 on a dell 8600. Any help is appreciated. here are the steps I took during installation: (for those unfamiliar with gentoo, the emerge command is used to compile & install packages) # emerge pcmcia-cs (copied some other guy's config.opts since cardmgr crashes w/ default options.) # emerge alsa-utils # emerge alsa-tools # emerge alsa-firmware copied vxpocket.conf from alsa source to /etc/pcmcia compiled a new kernel with ISA, PCMCIA, and ALSA support, with the VXPocket driver compiled in (not as modules). added these lines to /etc/modules.d/alsa: alias snd-card 0 snd-intel8x0 alias snd-card-1 snd-vxpocket post-install snd-vxpocket /usr/bin/vxloader options snd cards_limit=2 # modules-update restarted computer with the new kernel. #/etc/init.d/pcmcia start #/etc/init.d/alsasound restart (I also tried removing the i8x0 lines and making snd-vxpocket card 0 but that failed also. the intel i8x0 sound works just fine, it's just the vxpocket that is presenting a problem) Thanks again! _________________________________________________________________ Get rid of annoying pop-up ads with the new MSN Toolbar FREE! http://toolbar.msn.com/go/onm00200414ave/direct/01/
