Hi, While testing my new system configuration tonight Bob Josland, the drummer for my band, and I produced some Ardour drum sessions. The print quality is good enough for samples. The playing is Budweiser influenced and marginal for loops unless someone is willing to do some editing. If anyone is interested, I have alot of Ardour drum sessions that can be licensed appropriately and released. I have no time to study licensing so all suggestions would be appreciated, i.e. License Green because it enables commercial use, etc. I can't invest any time editing the sessions for multitrack loop libraries or samples. I'd prefer to find one or two people that are willing to do the editing, categorizing, etc. It's concievable that I could release many styles, time signatures, tempos and mixes. I can't make any promises though because time is always a challange. ron-bob07.mp3 is eight tracks; kick, snare, hat, rack-R, rack-L, floor, over-L, over-R. Aside from panning and reverb (lexicon) on the snare there's almost no mixing. The lexicon is the source of noise in the mix, the multitrack prints have no appreciable noise. The ring in the snare could be obtrusive depending on the song. The style is raggae or beergae at 125bpm. There are enough parts in this six minute piece to construct verses, choruses, intro, outro, bridges, etc. http://www.multitrack.us/~parker/music/ron-bob07.mp3. If DNS is fubar substitue 209.134.141.117 for the domain name. Oh, the old Rocket Network crew has a new project for music collaboration. We might be able to work something out with them if we start building libraries. I can't afford to serve. Or maybe someone will have a better suggestion if there's a need. ron __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Get better spam protection with Yahoo! Mail. http://antispam.yahoo.com/tools

[linux-audio-user] USB digital out to hifi

by Barnaby Gray

Hello, I'm interested in a quality digital out to go to the DAC on my hifi, for playing music as a jukebox. It's a laptop so the device will have to be USB and definitely needs to do 16bit/44.1khz, and 24bit/96khz as well would be sweet. Does anyone have any recommendations for devices that play nicely under linux? I've looked at the Creative MP3+ which looks cheap and I wouldn't trust to have a direct digital signal, also doesn't do the higher bit/sample rate. The other one I looked at is the M-Audio Sonica, but I've been steered away from that because of the firmware difficulties. Thanks in advance, Barnaby

[linux-audio-user] how to make usb audio sit nicely with jack?

by Kent, Gary

Patrick: Thanks for responding to my pleas for help! I run Red Hat 9 (moving to Planet CCRMA Fedora Core soon). Rate is at 48000, but I do use period size of 512 (maybe that's the problem). The /tmp directory I have never changed. Thanks for this tip. I will try it and hit you back. There is not much info out there (or I'm probably looking in the wrong place) regarding a proper setup of the /etc/modules.conf file. I could sure use some insight into this file. Thanks again Patrick, gk

[linux-audio-user] [ANN] alsamodular-1.7.6

by Matthias Nagorni

Hello, AlsaModularSynth 1.7.6 is available from SourceForge: - Speed optimizations give more voices in polyphic mode :-) - Fixed support for sustain/hold pedal. - Added VC Double Decay (a very cool envelope, suggested by Fons Adriaensen) - Added demos/example_vcdoubledecay.ams (velocity dependent). - Added Quantizer 2 (very simple module). - Fixed VC panning module. - Added pitch-dependend panorama (note that offset and gain are functional in this mode) in VC panning module. See *_pan_*.ams in the instruments folder for the new stereo effects. Try out the different modes of the VC panning (especially "Sort by pitch"), where Pan Gain should be >= 1. VC Double Decay is a double exponential decay. Ratio is the ratio of the two exponentials. Ratio = 0 will give the "normal" steady sustain. Ratio > 0 will make the envelope decay starting from the sustain level, much like in a piano or harpsichord. Citing Fons: "This is the correct model for a vibrating string that is coupled to a resonator or to another string". Have fun !

[linux-audio-user] how to make usb audio sit nicely with jack?

by Kent, Gary

Hi: I set up my USB 2-channel audio interface (Event EZbus) this weekend. Amazingly, when I plugged it in, up comes this panel asking me if I wanted to configure it! I didn't expect to get even this much for something that had no driver! After a day of working with it, it came down to 2 choices: 1) I could have my usb audio interface working, but not at the same time as jack or any jack dependent programs that I had set up (such as zynaddsubfx, muse). Also, jack gives 'pcm' errors and then shuts down. 2) modify my /etc/modules.conf file to allow jack programs to work, and also my USB audio interface (but no tracking /dev/dsp device), but with awful cracking upon playback. I think I am having 'pcm' troubles, but am not sure. I am still trying to learning all of the modprobe commands. But I could really use some help on this. I feel like I am so close to kissing Macs goodbye if I can just get this to work. Below is my /etc/modules.conf file (I commented out any oss and rmmod-ed them). If I choose option 1 above I still get insmod errors at bootup, but all still works, except for jack as mentioned. I guess I should mention that there is currently a SBLive! card installed in a PCI slot also, but I am trying to bypass it and use only my USB device, even though I left it in its PCI slot on the motherboard. alias eth0 e100 alias usb-controller usb-uhci # --- BEGIN: Generated by ALSACONF, do not edit. --- # --- ALSACONF verion 1.0.1 --- alias char-major-116 snd alias snd-card-0 snd-usb-audio #alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss #alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss #alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss #alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss #alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss add options -k snd-card-0 # --- END: Generated by ALSACONF, do not edit. --- alias sound-slot-0 emu10k1 post-install sound-slot-0 /bin/aumix-minimal -f /etc/.aumixrc -L >/dev/null 2>&1 || : pre-remove sound-slot-0 /bin/aumix-minimal -f /etc/.aumixrc -S >/dev/null 2>&1 || : I would really be grateful for any help someone could give, Thanks in advance, gk

[linux-audio-user] RE: some more 'made with Linux' music

by daniel.vincent＠blueyonder.co.uk

> I'm hoping this was a "linux only" recording. It's something that you > can be proud of as far as show people what one can do with a linux audio > studio. I used to record all my music using Broadcast2000. I could never get on with Cinellera, Jack/Ardour crashed too often and my machine was too rubbish to run Audacity with no real latency. http://stage.vitaminic.co.uk/onion_jack I've recently started using Ardour (now that Broadcast2000 is getting harder and harder to find in a stable packaged form, I think only SuSE still includes it with their current distro?) which is good fun if a bit intimidating to start with. I've also upgraded my machine, so using Audacity is also less painful than it used to be. It's ideal for sharing projects with non-Linux musicians... Incidentally, are there any Linux musicians in South London? daniel www.o <http://www.onionjack.co.uk> nionjack.co.uk - that's just silly

[linux-audio-user] RE: some more 'made with Linux' music

by daniel.vincent＠blueyonder.co.uk

Daniel James: > Are all the tracks on this page 'made with linux'?: > http://stage.vitaminic.co.uk/main/onion_jack/all_tracks/ They are all recorded, mixed and messed around with, using Broadcast 2000, with the occasional bit taken into Audacity or ecawave for the ladspa effects. The final mixes are then encoded using lame. I'm still getting to grips with sequencing etc, so all the keyboards are recorded "live" (as in recorded not sequenced or programmed). Of course there are a couple of guitar effects used: a Zoom 1010 is used on most of the guitar parts, and some of teh keyboard ones too... daniel

[linux-audio-user] shuttle xpcs as linux music boxes?

by glyn

hi all, i'm currently mulling over the idea of getting one of those really small shuttle xpcs for use as a quasi-portable linux-based audio box/desktop replacement, and was wondering if anybody had used them before and had suggestions or encountered caveats/hardware problems/quality control issues/etc. apparently the amd-based systems use an integrated realtek audio chip that is supported under alsa, but i'd probably put a better audio interface in the one available pci slot anyways. thanks, glyn
