I just started to build a sound recording device using a raspberry pi 3 with rasbian lite and a mixpre 6 USB audio interface.
A first test with arecord seemed to work.
Are there any other tools for rasbian (sox, ffmpeg or others) that are "better" (for example in regard to reliability)?
Thanks for any tips!

Hi, LAUs!
I'm trying to understand how IR.lv2 <https://github.com/Anchakor/ir.lv2>
(I'm using the 1.3.2-1kxstudio1 version) manages IR files ; I have this
quite long list of Lexicon480L files
<http://www.housecallfm.com/download-gns-personal-lexicon-480l>, it's in
AIFF format, and first, the files don't show up when you click the "Open
file" button, you have to remove the "audio files" filter and use "all
files" and then you can only select ONE file ; And then, if I want to
try another file, I lose the first one! It's gone, if I want it again
I'll have to "Open" it anew :(
And there's this "Bookmarks" window/pane : When I click "add" I get a
directory requester, if I select my dir (note that at this point, I
*can* see all my aif files inside it, only greyed out) then OK, fine, I
have a "Lexicon 480L" bookmark, but clicking on it does nothing :( I
guess my IR file management is broken..? Note that this works in
Klangfalter, it remembers where the files are, I just have to click one
in the list to load it ; But Then again Klangfalter tends to refuse to
work when I need it the most (you know, "because its buffer-size
requirements cannot be satisfied") so I wanted to try out IR.lv2.
Is this file management thing working at you guys? Is there some config
file where I can get it to work with aif files too?
Thank you for your patience ; my album is going forward, check out
yesterday's tune

Guitarix release 0.35.4
Guitarix is a tube amplifier simulation for
jack (Linux), with an additional mono and a stereo effect rack.
Guitarix includes a large list of LV2 and LADSPA plugins, and support
LADSPA / LV2 plugs as well in it's racks.
The guitarix engine is designed for LIVE usage, and feature ultra fast,
glitch and click free preset switching and is full Midi and remote
controllable (the Web UI is not included in the distributed tar ball).
This release removes the dependency to webkitgtk-1.0, which is
deprecated in most distributions those day's.
Instead the old Preset Web Browser, Guitarix use now Gio::File to fill
the new Online Preset Menu were you could inform you about the presets
and select them for downloading from

Hi,
we are organising our 15th "Kieler Open Source und Linux Tage" (northern of
Germany, www.kielux.de), a conference with 4 parallel tracks with talks and
workshops and a smal exhibition for open source community projects and companies.
Is there anybody who would like to hold an Ardour (or about other FLOSS audio
maker tools) talk and/or give a workshop and/or make a booth on our event (14th
- 16th September)?
Please answer by eMail to kontakt(a)kilux.de .

Hi!
Ok, it seems that on your g++, we need an additional #include <cmath> for a few
files. It should work if you apply the attached patch.
Basically, I haven't decided how I want it to work in the next release, so how
SpectMorph interacts with std::fabs, std::sin and so forth may still change,
but at least this should be enough to compile it.
Cu... Stefan

I'm pleased to announce the 20170701 release of WhySynth, a DSSI
softsynth plugin featuring four oscillators per voice, multiple
oscillator, filter, and envelope modes, effects, and more.
New since the last release:
* Over 100 new patch presets, thanks to Brian Collins at
linuxsynths.com.
* Patches now have a 'category' field, with which you can organize
the patch list.
* Fixes for a couple security concerns, a pile of bugs, and a raft
of compiler warnings.
* A change to the default knob behavior.
* No new synthesis features (yet).
See below for information on potential breakage or confusion caused
by these changes.
Find WhySynth here:
http://smbolton.com/whysynth.html
More information on the DSSI plugin standard, available hosts
and plugins can be found here:
http://dssi.sourceforge.net/
WhySynth is written and copyright (c) 2017 by Sean Bolton,
and licensed under the GNU General Public License, version 2.
Oh, goody, breakage and confusion:
* The addition of the category field meant a change to the patch
file format. Unfortunately, earlier versions of WhySynth were not
designed with forward compatibility in mind. If you save patches in
the new 'version 1' format, older WhySynths will not be able to load
them. If you save patches in the old 'version 0' format, both older
and current versions of WhySynth can use them. (Current versions can
even save and load the categories using 'version 0' format, thanks
to a bit of a hack, but don't round-trip from new to old to new
versions of WhySynth, or you'll lose your categories.)
* This release changes the default mouse button bindings of the
knobs. Previously, dragging mouse button 1 made changes in angular
mode: the knob would (quite abruptly) move to point toward the mouse
pointer. Dragging mouse button 3 used to operate in linear mode,
where moving the pointer vertically or horizontally would make
smooth incremental changes. This release swaps that behavior
between the two buttons, to what I think is a more usable default.
If you prefer the old behavior, you can add the following to your
~/.gtkrc-2.0:
gtk-control-rotary-prefer-angular = 1
Have fun!

Hi
After some discussions with @wolftune, I wrote a little app to allow
users to avoid temporary computer suspend on systemd based systems.
nosuspend allows users to avoid suspend or shutdown even on privileged
level (e.g. root) when a running user process shouldn't be interrupted.
for example capture a session.
To accomplish this, nosuspend sets the systemd-inhibit flag with UID
0/root in order to block computer suspend while another command-line
operation is running.
Permissions therefore are granted in a PolKit policy rule file which
comes with nosuspend.
nosuspend comes in 2. fashions, e.g. with 2 different Polkit files.
1.) default is the security mode, which requires you to enter the root
password in order to run nosuspend.
2.) is the relaxed mode, which allow you to run nosuspend without
password. To get this mode, you must build nosuspend with|
|
|make relaxed|
||
Sure, you could switch of suspend at all, but maybe that's not what you
wont. So nosuspend may be the tool for you.
To use nosuspend, simply run before another command as in:
|nosuspend appname -parameter for appname|
For easy command substitution full bash completion support is provided.

Hi
For those interested, I've just add, on request, a new micro-tonal
tuning mode to gxtuner.
Shruti, which is the Indian non-equal tuning ratio to 22 semi tones.
You can get it here:
https://github.com/brummer10/gxtuner
to use the new shruti mode, you must start gxtuner with the parameter -m
shruti
|gxtuner -m shruti
