RE: [linux-audio-user] Using alsactl to preserve volume state

by eviltwin69＠cableone.net

Mark, Set state the way you want it then do alsactl store to save it. On reboot do alsactl restore and it will reset. The easiest way to do this is to add something to your rc.local script (wherever that is depending on distribution). On RH the best thing to do is add a file to /etc/rc.d/init.d that uses chkconfig (look at some of the other files in there). On start/boot it should do alsactl restore. On stop/halt it should do alsactl store. If you set it up like some of the other scripts in /etc/rc.d/init.d you should be able to turn it on by entering chkconfig FILENAME on.

[linux-audio-user] Using alsactl to preserve volume state

On the Wiki there is this advice and the following statement so would anyone happen to know what the correct way to preserve state across reboots for 2.6 is ? # load/unload the volume settings on startup/shutdown post-install snd-driver-name /usr/sbin/alsactl restore pre-remove snd-driver-name /usr/sbin/alsactl store This doesn't seem to work with a 2.6.0-test kernel. modprobe simply ignores lines with these statements.

[linux-audio-user] Suitable distro for audio works

by Olivier

first post (or so) here so Hi everyone. Is there a distro out there that is best suited for audio work ? I am currently downloading agnula's work but was wondering was you guys were using. As an all purpose desktop system I use mdk 9.2. There is a large number of audio apps contributed for it but before going down that route or another, I thought I'd take some advice. I'd like to use software synth and a sequencer with a midi keyboard I have got at home. Thanks all ! Olivier

[linux-audio-user] Getting cs46xx to work

by David Baron

Alsa recommnds this one with a DMan2044 PCI card (4-in, 4-out). The insmod fails with "no such device" Autodetections call for AGOPO Maestro or es1968, also Maestro. If I accept these, they install but naturally do not play.

[linux-audio-user] Audio cd recording "on the fly"?

[linux-audio-user] Some questions

by David Baron

1. Are alsa drivers multi-client? (Two applications can read/write simultaneously to the in or out--i.e. a patch controller and a sequencer doing notes). 2. Can dummy MIDI devices be installed (virmidi?) to be used for pipelining midi-out from one program to midi-in to another or for overcoming single-client problems (Windows examples MidiYoke, MidiMatrix, Hubi's). 3. Seeing as wine sessions successfully enumerate the MIDI devices and actually played to one! but no native program such as Rosegarden has--KDE has a MIDI-mapper dialog similar to windows. Must they be set up there from /dev/ mid0 .... references? 4. Jack has been recommended. What precisely is this and how does this work? 5. Can the recommended Ardour/Jack rpm for Madrake be used on Debian?

[linux-audio-user] Ardour/Jack package

by David Baron

OK, got it. Install fine with the same locale error but it's all English anyway. I have no working audio right now. When I do, what do I do with jack?

[linux-audio-user] Re:Compiling!

by David Baron

While the audio and MIDI still do not work on my linux, I downloaded a few packages to look at them. Gmorgan, Audour, etc. Once they FINALLY untar, the seemingly simple and by now familiar: ./configure; make; make install. NO GO. 1. Configure--usually looking for a certain automake version. This test is in error, but easy enough to fix up. The version string is defined up front. Edite to what you have on your system. Now, if you've installed any needed libraries, configure should run. 2. Make--complains about locale, defaults at least, requesting en_us, etc. Only problem with this is that my environment IS set that way. Then it complains about recursive directory references and aborts. A subdirectory with the same name of one of its ancestors is not necessarily a recursive reference so this is also a programming error. So I rerun with a do-it-anyway option -B. Still gets to some point and aborts. 3. Make install--actually the same comments apply. After that, obviously will not install what was not compiled.

[linux-audio-user] Mandrake 9.2 and kmix

by Howard Sanner

Greetings, I didn't see anything about this in the archives. For about two I've been using Mandrake 8.1 with Kmix 1.90, Broadcast 2000, and an Ensoniq ES1370 sound card to make audio recordings. It has worked fine. Over the weekend I installed Mandrake 9.2 on a fresh hard disk. Then I installed Broadcast 2000 from the Mandrake 8.1 distribution. Sound playback works fine. I can also record. However, nothing I do with Kmix will change the record level, up or down. The default level is quite low, with peaks hitting around -25 dBFS or so. The source is an FM broadcast from a consumer receiver (i.e., -10 dB output). I logged in as root, set all sliders to their maximum, and saved that as the default level. I'm sure I'm doing something very simple and stupid wrong, but I can't figure out what it is. Many thanks. Howard Sanner flagstad(a)mindspring.com
