+++ AGNULA launches the "Libre Music" project
The AGNULA IST-Project [0] is proud to announce its new "Libre Music"
(aka the "muzik" project) project, whose goal is to create a publicly
accessible database of Libre Music, i.e. music licensed under either
the Creative Commons [1] licenses or the EFF [2] Open Audio License.
+++
One of the objectives of the AGNULA-IST project is help spreading
sensibility on the topics of Libre Software, with specific attention
paid to audio/video applications and content distribution. In order
to reach this goal, the AGNULA-IST project has decided to allocate a
part of its resources to develop and host a publicly accessible
database of Libre Music, i.e. musical works licensed under either:
- the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 1.0 license [3]
- the Creative Commons Attribution 1.0 license [4]
- the EFF Open Audio License 1.0.1 [5]
We are not going to compete with other, similar, efforts. On the
contrary, we would like to be complementary to other
projects/databases who are already working or are planning to work in
the same field. Our development strategy is driven by this basic
willness to cooperate and not to compete.
If you want to contribute to our development effort, feel free to
subscribe [6] to our development portal [7] and ask either one of the
`muzik' project [8] administrators (Davide Fugazza [9] and Andrea
Glorioso [10]) to be added to the project - you will be able to use
our CVS, bug tracking and task manager tools.
If you, your company and/or your organization is interested in sharing
its archives of Libre Music by publishing it on AGNULA Libre Music
database once this will be complete, and/or if you want further
information, feel free to send your questions, suggestions and/or
criticisms to:
<users(a)lists.agnula.org> [11]
for general discussion, and/or to:
<info(a)agnula.org>
for general, info-line style questions on the AGNULA project.
+++
About AGNULA: Agnula (acronym for A GNU/Linux Audio distribution,
pronounced with a strong g) is the name of a project funded by the
European Commission (number of contract: IST-2001-34879; key action
IV.3.3, Free Software: towards the critical mass). The project aims
to spread Free Software in the professional audio/video arena.

Hello,
You can find my instructions about creating a debian kernel
2.4.23 package with the ck system responsiveness patches
(from http://www.plumlocosoft.com/kernel/) at the following
website:
http://www.iua.upf.es/~mdeboer/kernel-2.4.23-ck1-debian/
I hope the instructions are correct and complete - YMMV -
and in any case the make-kpkg documentation in recommended
reading. Please let me know if you want to see something
changed, or if you successfully build and run a kernel with
these instructions. (I have not had the time to build the
2.4.23 kernel myself yet, but I've been through these steps
several times in the past, so I am rather confident it will
work)
Maarten
Hi Andrew,
i'm a user of a 2.4.22 kernel patched with the preemption patches plus
your Low Latency patches. It works very nicely for audio applications
[like jackd, ardour, etc...].
Looking into the config menu of the 2.6.0 kernel i only find a
"preemptible kernel" config option. Your low latency patches seem not to
be included. Do you have plans of including your patches in the 2.6.x
kernel? I heard rumors about merging the preemptible and your LL patches
since they seem to go very nicely together.. Any truth to that?
Thanks i.a. for any thoughts and insights.
Flo
P.S.: this mail is cc'ed to the linux audio user/developers list because
i think the people there are very interested in these issues, too..

Hi,
i wonder about how ready linux 2.6.0 is for audio stuff? Is vanilla
2.6.0 with preemtion enabled comparable to 2.4.22 with preemption +
andrew's LowLatency patches [which i use right now]?
I somewhere read something about merging andrews LL and the preemptible
patches. Is there any truth to that?
What about the 2.4.x capabilities "patch"? Will this work on 2.6.x?

Vstserver 0.2.8 -> 0.3.0:
-------------------------
-Cache is updated when starting the vstserver. Also added some workaround code
to avoid deadlocks. You may still sometime need to press ctrl-c and start
vstserver again, but the problem is not as appeareant as before.
-Does not use realtime priority when updating cache only.
-Better documentation for vstlib. ("make doc")
-New functions in vstlib: VSTLIB_newCacheList, VSTLIB_deleteCacheList, VSTLIB_getName.
-Removed function in vstlib: VSTLIB_deleteCache. (Use VSTLIB_delete instead)
-All clients must be recompiled.
-Works with the latest version of wine at the time of writing, 9.12.2003.
vst ladspa plugin v0.1.6 - stable
----------------------------------
-Use the new vstlibs functions to gather
the cached AEffect structs. (non-important update)
vstserver-0.3.0-wine.tar.bz2
----------------------------
This is the unmodified cvs wine from winehq 9.12.2003.
Tested and works with vstserver v0.3.0

Hi,
Can someone recommend a simple converter to take a wave file to ogg
format? (Probably using vorbis, but whatever is best is fine.)
Amazingly, the OGG FAQ doesn't seem to list any solutions to this, or
I'm just missing it.
Thanks,
Mark
Dear all,
as a user of a "low end" machine (duron 1Ghz, 256MB) I am trying to get
some reverb on the snare drum (living as a soundfont in the Emu10k1
wavetable) being triggered by my MIDI-Sequencer (MusE).
Unfortunately, the hardware reverb on SBlive rev.4 is afaik not
supported, so I wondered whether there is a possibility to route the
wavetable output through JACK into JACK-Rack or something similar?
Simply connecting the MusE output to the JACK-Rack ins in the qjackctl
connection bay does not work (and would btw also put reverb on the
keyboards).
I tried fluidsynth with the jack output, but I can't really get it on
time (too slow, esp. the rolls sound very bad).
Is there any other way to do this?
Thank you,
t.

From what I understand, now that 2.6.0 is official, the 2.6 series will be handed off to Andrew Morton to maintain and he has a massive patchset prepared to be merged in. I'm not sure if the entire patch set is going to be merged in at once or if it will be a more gradual thing. I would start comparing 2.6 to 2.4 until he has merged those patches.
