Hello. I have a new Hammerfall 9652 card that I am trying to set up with DeMuDi 1.1.0. Before, lspci listed the card as: "Multimedia audio controller: Xilinx Corporation: Unkown device 2fc4 (rev 03)" but then I moved it to a different PCI slot and now lspci says: "Multimedia audio controller: Xilinx Corporation RME Digi9652 (Hammerfall)" I think that's a good sign. However, /etc/init.d/alsa start gives: "Starting ALSA (version 0.9.8):PCI: Found IRQ 9 for device 02:0b.0 PCI: SHaring IRQ 9 with 00:1f.4 RME Digi9652/Digi9636: no cards found rme9652-failed" Now that the card registers in lspci, I have hope that the card is working... but I don't know what to try next. Can anyone please help? Thank you in advance. Kris Bergstrom -- H5n9d0+5

[linux-audio-user] LADSPA SC2, SC3 Compressors and Sidechain

by Russell Hanaghan

I could not get any noticeable function trying the sidechain inputs of these (I forget if it was specifically SC2 or 3 or 4 but could see the inputs in Jack-Rack) I ran jack from Qjackctl, Ardour and jack-rack. Inserted SC3 into jack-rack. All routing was done from Qjackctl "Connect" interface. Tried every way to Sunday and could not get any effect except "makeup gain". Then I tried just patching SC2 then SC3, etc as inserts direct into an audio channel in Ardour for straight compression. Could not get them to do any standard compressing either. Any thoughts or illumination on these compressors would be great. I particularly want to run a "de essing" of sorts on a single mike imput. Is it possible with these plugs?? Thanks

[linux-audio-user] noise problem with ImproSculpt: solved !

by Dave Phillips

Greetings: I finally resolved the mouse noise problem with ImproSculpt. Here's what I did: 1. Made the csound binary suid root. 2. Erased the CsOptions for Linux in the ImproSculpt.csd file (they're ignored when csound is suid root). 3. Ran the app so: csound --sched -d -i devaudio -o devaudio -b 512 -B 4096 -m6 ImproSculpt.csd Screen redraws are slower, but the mouse noise is gone. I'm still confused as to why all this trouble just "suddenly" occurred, but I'm glad to have discovered a solution. I also learned a lot about PCI latency timing, graphics card priority, hard/software buffering, and lots of other stuff that chewed up a bunch of my time. Many thanks to all who responded to my dilemma, I appreciate all the assistance and advice.

[linux-audio-user] Which kernel for low latency?

by Glenn McCord

I've been using a 2.4.2 kernel with Andrew Morton's patches and I got jack to work very well. However, seeing 2.6 is the latest and greatest I'd like to switch but am having no luck thus far. Q. If anyone has got jack to work great with a 2.6(.1) kernel could you share with me what version of the 2.6 kernel you used and what patches (if any) At the moment I'm trying a 2.6.1 with an mm4 patch but I'm getting no sound with my soundblaster live. I've done: <*> Sound card support and, under Advanced Linux Sound Architecture ---> <*> Advanced Linux Sound Architecture <*> Sequencer support <*> OSS API emulation <*> OSS Mixer API <*> OSS PCM (digital audio) API <*> OSS Sequencer API rebooted and install alsa-lib-1.0.1 and alsa-utils-1.0.1 as well but I get these errors root@upstairs glenn # aplay /usr/kde/3.2/share/sounds/pop.wav ALSA lib pcm_hw.c:1055:(snd_pcm_hw_open) open /dev/snd/pcmC0D0p failed: No such file or directory aplay: main:502: audio open error: No such file or directory and glenn@upstairs glenn $ alsamixer No mixer elems found I'm at a loss but am interested at what type of kernel others are using. I think my next best bet is to remove alsa from the kernel and install it seperately. Thanks

[linux-audio-user] multiple MIDI interfaces

by Florin Andrei

Soon i'll have to connect 3 MIDI devices to a Linux system (and also send MIDI between the devices themselves, not only device<-->computer): two hardware synths (keyboards) and an effects box. Possibly another device later, but we'll see. What MIDI box do you recommend in this case? I'm looking at M-Audio USB MIDISPORT 4x4 which seems to be quite ok: http://www.m-audio.com/index.php?do=products.main&ID=a4fc99df673e54ff97ce39… Anyone using it? Can you route the MIDI signal in arbitrary ways? Can you route one input to all outputs, or do other similar things? What's the software that you use to control it? Does it work with your sequencer? How well does it work with ALSA? If you have a sound card (or maybe two soundcards) on your system, can you use its MIDI interfaces in addition to the 4x4? Can you do arbitrary MIDI routing in that case? On the ALSA website, next to the 4x4 it says "Firmware driver coming soon" - what does that mean? Is it not supported yet? If 4x4 doesn't work under Linux, can you recommend a product similar in features and price? -- Florin Andrei http://florin.myip.org/

[linux-audio-user] MLP DVD playing back on Linux

by Andrew Gaydenko

Hi, Do I understand well, MLP-compressed DVD can not be played back free on Linux, because of MLP algorithm is patented? Andrew

[linux-audio-user] a bit of a report on sounds expo 2004

by Chris Cannam

Just a note to say I've written up a short piece about the GNU/Linux Audio Centre at Sounds Expo last week in London, and stuck it on http://www.linuxmusician.com/ . There are a few photos too. Chris
