it's not working on my system (i tried 64, 128, 256) ... but playing
with the different settings, i figured out, that i can't change the
number of periods in the hardware buffer ... it's always 2 times the
number of frames per period ...
jack returns as error message:
ALSA: cannot set number of periods to 1 for capture
ALSA: cannot configure playback channel
cannot load driver module alsa
is it possible that this is the problem? i don't understand how the
driver works but if the hardware buffer always gets one block instead of
two and plays it back the whole hardware buffer the samples would be
late ...
on the other hand the distortion i hear is not related to the block
size... (btw, i tried to record a sound ... that works fine ...)
nearly giving up the hope ...

I also have this card. Perfectly good, if old and no longer supported, and I
demand the chunky breakout box!
Yes, that OSS AGOPO/Maestro driver will modprobe, but is uncomplainingly
silent.
No, the ess1948 and others will not install correctly.
Alsa recommends the cs46xx driver for this card.
No, this will not install because the AGOPO/Maestro identification will block
it!!
I will gladly test or help however I can.
I am running Debian 2.4.22 from a Knoppix 3.3 installation on a PIII system.
Hi. The easiest way to do Acid kind of stuff in Linux is to chop up some loops
in Ardour, and then use the drag time stretchy tool in ardour to drag them to
bar/beat or as long as you like. It works quite nicely.
(Btw, I think a glass of good Wine is improved by being slightly Acid. :)
This card has an ESS Maestro-1 (a.k.a AGOGO / es1948) APU.
But unlike the consumer cards (which use a low quality ac'97 codec) this
card uses nicer CS4222 codecs for better sound. The current drivers only
work in conjunction with an ac'97 codec.
There is no driver for this currently, but I am working on one, although
it will be my first soundcard driver :)

If anyone has any info that could help me out, I'd be grateful.
Does anyone have data sheets for the es1948?

i got the response from rme's support that there is something wrong with
the sample frequency ... but they doubt that it's a problem of the card
itself ...
there are two possibilities then ... it's either a problem on the alsa
side or on the cardbus/pci side ...
btw, playing with the settings of hdspconf the distortion seems to be
related to the spdif out _emphasis_ option ... it seems to sound softer
... i'll try to create a sample/screen shot of it tomorrow... is this
option somehow related to the sample clock?
take care...

Is there a loop based editor similar to Sonic Foundry's Acid either in
existance or under development? What I'm looking for is Acid's ability
to stretch/compress loops depending on the metronome therefore being
able to take any loop and use it to any metronome speed. I read Acid is
a failure under wine.
Thanks.

There is some (old) documentation here. Good luck.

Hi
I released sfc-0.014 (SoundFontCombi) a MIDI router who emulates a
synthesizer, storing routes as sounds using MIDI soundfonts or other MIDI
capable devices.
Cosmetic changes only.
News in v0.014
----------------------
- Sounds added
- Graphic speed refresh and memory usage improved.
- Windows resizables
- Ready to play at start.
sfc is available in:
http://personal.telefonica.terra.es/web/soudfontcombi/sfc-0.014.tar.gzhttp://www.telefonica.net/web/soudfontcombi/sfc-0.014.tar.gz
Also BERLIOS has aproved horgand as project, the the homepage and mailing
lists has been moved to their servers, and new services including CVS etc are
ready. New horgand version is comming :-)
The new homepage is:
http://horgand.berlios.de
Good because my personal home page is completly full.
Thanks

Can user in Cecilia build Csound instruments in a similar manner
than one builds in Reaktor?
I have compiled and I'm still compiling a list of visual programming,
signal flow audio software (52 so far). The list has one Csound
front-end:
InstrumentBuilder Mark Trombino No source code
I just wanted to look at as many as possible this type of software
because I'm developing my own. However, the visual programming GUI
would be needed in many software and thus I would like to see
a standalone visual programming GUI which would be usable for many
applications. I have collected many pdf papers on this topic and
would need help in checking them. Please mail me privately if interested.
Anyone has Reaktor's (and other NI product's) pdf manuals? I'm missing
many more manuals; please mail me for a list.
Regards,
Juhana

Thanks for answering! If no secret, which project are you in now?
And - do you mind if I try hacking on NoteEdit? There are a couple similar
entry speed problems (like slurs - also "selection required"), and I
thought I could try, although I'm not at all sure I;ll succeed anytime
soon. However, branching usually stinks, so I'd better ask for the
author's blessing.
Is there some CVS/alpha code out there, so I could hack on the latest
version? Or is 2.3.4 the final code for today?
(Someday I'd like to write the specs and start a new project specifically
for note entry - basically a frontend to one of the text-based note
formats; but I'd like to learn all there is to learn about NoteEdit first,
as this is the closest free projects that exist).
Sincerely yours, Mikhail Ramendik
