[linux-audio-user] Question, not quite linux related

by Tracey Anne Hytry

Hi everyone. I know there are quite a few people here who do music, and this is a question about a piece of equipment. I'm asking here because I feel much more comfortable asking here. My question is: If you could afford a Roland MC-909 would you buy one? Christy and I were at the local guitar center and there was a 909 there that someone was "playing" in real time. It was quite the instrument for doing techno type jamming. Christy played with it a little and really got into it, and got "that gleam in her eyes". After we came home I looked it up on the net, and found a few good reviews. The 909 is at a good discount also. I guess my only problem is how well will this thing work with linux as far as it's fastest way to load samples(via usb). I kind of doubt that it will, which would make loading samples a little harder, but not impossible. It seems like a great sequencer, that would fit in real well with the rest of the equipment we have around. It would also free up the linux music machine to better do recording, special effects, and synthisis. Anyway, has anyone had any experience with the Roland MC-909, and what is your opinion? Please feel free to email me if you would like (but please put [linux-audio-user] in the subject line so it doesn't fall into the spam box). Thanks in advance, Tracey.

No, this is an older 440bx type board.

[linux-audio-user] MIDI + Audio

by cv223＠comcast.net

Hi, I'm trying to set up my Linux system for a number of audio projects. My first idea was to tap into the wealth of audio tools available to help me practice. The basic idea is to generate a MIDI file of a tune using one of a number of programs (mma, gmorgan, pymprovisator, etc.), play the midi file through a sequencer like MusE or Rosegarden while recording my audio part (I play bass) for later post-mortem analysis. This seemingly simple task has me stymied. I have jackd (via qjackctl) and fluidsynth (via qsynth) running ok, but I have two completely different problems with MusE and Rosegarden: 1) MusE 0.6.2: Audio input seems to work (audio mixer in MusE shows signal), but there is no sound when MIDI plays back. I've turned up every fader I can find and still no MIDI output. The little "jumping bars" on each MIDI track indicate that _something_ should be happening. I don't get sound from the built-in softsynths, either. I must be missing something simple! A mute button? A master gain control?? The fluidsynth MIDI part of the signal chain seems fine, because of 2), below. I was previously working with MusE 0.6.0, which gave MIDI output after a bit of fussing - maybe I should go back to it? 2) Rosegarden4 0.9.6: MIDI output works fine, but I get no audio input (the audio input indicator doesn't show anything, and recording shows silence). The audio part of the signal chain seems to be working because of 1), above, plus I can record audio with Ardour ok. I was previously trying version 0.9 where the audio recording worked, but there was a huge delay between the MIDI and audio tracks. Info I saw on the Rosegarden users email list seemed to indicate that 0.9.6 should fix a problem with MIDI recording delay, so I figured it would do something about the audio delay. In both situations, jackd connections are what I would expect (e.g., with Rosegarden, qjackctl shows an audio input connection to Rosegarden). If anyone has any ideas, I would _greatly_ appreciate suggestions. BTW, I'm running a Gentoo system with the latest ebuilds for these programs, if that helps. Thanks, Joel PS Double thanks to everyone who has contributed to all the cool Linux audio apps!

RE: [linux-audio-user] Guitar overdrive

It's a jack client rather than a LADSPA plugin, but you may also want to try out creox. http://www.uid0.sk/zyzstar/?creox >Can anyone recommend any LADSPA plugins that will get me a nice guitar >overdrive sound?

[linux-audio-user] USB under 2.6.2

by David Baron

There have been a lot recent postings about various USB devices. Assuming that I have indeed blacklisted the OSS driver and snd-usb-audio is registering, etc. It still will not work unless the new module uhic-hcd (instaead of usb-uhci) is loaded. However, this module will not unload correctly and can cause a hangup on shutdown. Get stuff like: URB-status -104 USB-request-URB -32 and hangs. Doing a rmmod (or modprobe -r) does not succede and anything dealing with modules is now parallized. lsmod, etc., are no longer accessible. NO usb until this business is cleared up, I am afraid. (If anyone has solved it, please let the rest of us know how!)

[linux-audio-user] Jack Mixer Software?

by Arnold Krille

Hi all, its me again, having too much time in my holidays... Today I wanted to ask if there are any mixer-apps for Jack where I can plug my synths in and have a stereo out and can play with different volumes and effects in one gui? Something like the mixers in arts's environment. Thanks in advance, Arnold -- Get my public-key from pgp.mit.edu or pgp.uni-mainz.de --- Hi, I am a .signature virus. Please copy me into your ~/.signature and send me to all your contacts. After a month or so log in as root and do a rm / -rf. Or ask your administrator to do so...

[linux-audio-user] What is status vxpocket + alsa + jack

by digger vermont

Hello All, Is vxpocket now fully working with alsa and jack? Are there any issues with using it on a powerbook? After buying (about a year ago) a Edirol UA-20 and finding it now not supported by jack, I'm concerned about ending up with the same situation with a vxpocket. Thanks for any info and/or help digger

Re: [linux-audio-user] mas

by Taybin Rutkin

The mailing lists are dead, the site hasn't been updated, and the programmers are working on something else. Despite all that though, I talked to a couple of them at their booth at linuxworldconf in January, and they said it was still alive. They're having a chicken-egg situation though. It sounds like neat software though.
