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.

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.

Has anyone figured out how to get this to work properly?
Requires uhci-hcd module by loaded. Unfortunately, this module does not unload
nicely. Anyone got it fixed?
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
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,

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 !

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.

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?

I asked my wife, and she wanted a laptop instead :). The shuttle got the
"Wife says, 'It looks like a toy'" Factor. So maybe WSILLAT?

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...

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
