[linux-audio-user] Re: Fwd: [sos] Linux audio apps in the real world

Yes - I've written a feature on Mirror Image which I'm told should be in the February issue of Sound on Sound, which will actually come out around the second week of January. The interview is with Ron Parker, who is responsible for the Linux setup there. Mirror Image is in Minneapolis, Minnesota - I don't know how far that is from you. > I'm building my next computer, and I'll be getting a small digital > board... either the Yamaha 01V96 or the Tascam DM-24 (I'm stuck on > that choice, but leaning towards the 01V96).

What I hear from regular Ardour users is that the program is approaching the stability required for day in day out use, but some tweaking is still required. Building a Linux audio workstation yourself is a learning experience, and if you don't want to invest the time to learn about the technology then it may not be for you. However, Linux audio systems may require a smaller financial investment than proprietary solutions, by way of compensation. I'd say going down the DIY route is great for people who want to learn and can invest the time but don't have so much money. If you have money but no time, you can pay a consultant to build any system you want. If you have no time to spare and no money, then I guess you need to sort that out first before you can do any kind of recording work, because any solution is going to require an investment of both time and money. Personally, I find that I get a lot out of my interaction with the Linux audio community that I wouldn't get from a traditional software vendor. I recommend that you join the Linux Audio Users mailing list as a first step to find out the kind of things that people are doing: http://www.linuxdj.com/audio/lad/subscribelau.php3 Cheers Daniel

[linux-audio-user] Recommendations for Low Latency Kernel

by The Other

12/26/03 Hello All, I'm currently running Mandrake 9.1 on a PII-350MHz with 128MB RAM box. If you have any suggestions for a low latency kernel geared to music applications, please provide them. My background is WIN95B running Cakewalk Pro Audio 8.04, Harmony Assistance (latest version) from Myriad-Online, and SEKd's Samplitude Studio 4.0 through a Sound Blaster Live! Value card. Nearly all of this hardware and software is circa 1998. In addition to the low latency kernel, I would like to have Linux software for MIDI sequencing and score printing. My printing needs will be very special later on as I would like to use TeX or some variant to print non-Western European notes, such as E# or A##. If you also have recommendations for MIDI sequencing with audio recorded tracks in one program (like Cakewalk) and software that will take MIDI input to generate a score, please provide them as well. Thank you for your help, 'The Other' Stephen Stubbs.

[linux-audio-user] Need help recording with Terratec DXM 6FIRE

by Carlos Santos

Hi! I'm newer by this list. I've been using ALSA driver 1.0.0rc2 for my Terratec DMX 6FIRE sound card, based on the envy24 chipset. The driver loaded is icy1712. Now my problem resides on recording audio to any wave editor / multitrack software, like mhWaveEdit, Audacity, and so on... On Audacity I'm able to record but I need to record several tracks at the same time to get only 2 tracks (the tracks that correspond to the input I'm using). For any other wave editor I'm not able to record anything! I know that this chipset is based on multi-track processing but if under windows it is possible to select a record input, it also should be possible under Linux!!! I've tried everything under envy24control... and even with the Digital Mix selected (where all inputs are mapped to) I'm still unable to record anything. Does this have anything to do with "bindings" parameters I found on ALSA documentation?? However I'm not understanding it well... Currently inputs: ADC 1 & 2 (0 1) - Mic In ADC 3 & 4 (2 3)- Line In / Wavetable ADC 5 & 6 (4 5) - Mic In / Phono ADC 7 & 8 (6 7) - ??? ADC 9 & 10 (8 9) - SPDIF/In (For instance, to record my guitar, connected to Mic Input, on Audacity I must record 6 tracks in order to be able to get something recorded... on tracks 5 and 6) Some doubts remain: What is connected to ADC 7 & 8? I don't know any other inputs on my card... is that for a mix input? (all channels mixed up on digital mix)? The IPGA controls are used for what? Why there isn't a record selector on the ALSA mixer or on envy24control for recording wave files from specific inputs? Now... finally... is it possible to remap, using te bindings section, the inputs? For instance, is it possible to map ADC 5 & 6 for inputs 1 & 2? Binding: 0 4 1 5 ???? Thanks a lot! Carlos

Re: [linux-audio-user] beeps are going to break my ears

by Juhana Sadeharju

>From: george bush <freakjazz(a)yahoo.com> > >how are you experts getting along with beep ? Not at all. Computer geeks should be forced to go to computer ergonomics course. One should also invent a silent mouse where no button clicks are heard. Specially in audio processing such clicks are not wanted. If "xset b off" don't work (as it didn't here), try "xset b 0 0" (check manual page for the details as I don't remember how many zeros one have to put there). Regards, Juhana

[linux-audio-user] beeps are going to break my ears

by george bush

hi how are you experts getting along with beep ? i recently installed slackware8.0 to a tiny pentium110MHz machine (AMiTY-CN) and got OSS working so was going to play around with JSyn,Sfront and PortAudio (SuperC is too much something to run on this machine..right?) anyway the annoying thing is that the accidental beep sound is too loud comparing to the music thing expected to come out is there a way to simply get rid of beep or make the volume of beep (only) smaller thanks BUYO-BUYO-IGOR --- my mp3 is @ http://thismusic.ispopular.com __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

[linux-audio-user] ANN: RTMix 0.76 released

by Ivica Bukvic

Greetings all! It's my pleasure to announce immediate availability of RTMix version 0.76. RTMix is an interactive multimedia art performance, composition, and coaching interface capable of triggering various DSP applications and/or processes concurrently, as well as offering a tight coordination between computer(s) and live performers. It can also trigger real-time events utilizing MIDI and OSC protocols, and can be in theory networked from a single client with up to 1000 other RTMix clients (personally neither have I had the opportunity to try this and besides the network latency would probably get the best of it anyways). For more info on what it is, what it does, and how it does it, please see the online docs: http://meowing.ccm.uc.edu/~ico/RTMix-doc/ Changelog: *RTMix is now part of the AGNULA project! *In order to comply with the AGNULA inclusion requirements, the install is now completely modular. Please use ./configure --prefix=<preferred-path> to install all the data files to the custom location. Binary is stored in /<preferred-path>/bin directory, so in the case your path happens to be "exotic," please make sure to use --bindir=<path-to-bin-directory> for custom binary directory placement. RTMix has so far been featured at ICMC 2002 conference (Sweden), SEAMUS 2003 conference (US), in the "Organised Sound" magazine (December 2002), and has been used in several of my works whose recordings are available on my website. If you happened to use RTMix in your work, I would love to hear in what ways you got to utilize its features, as well as how can I make the application better. Thanks! As usual, the tarball is available for immediate download from: http://meowing.ccm.uc.edu/~ico/rtmix-latest.tar.gz (4.3MB) For more info, please visit my website, RTMix forums at http://meowing.ccm.uc.edu/cgi-bin/ico/yabb/YaBB.cgi?board=Rtmix_id, and/or the online documentation (provided above). Best wishes, Ivica Ico Bukvic, composer & multimedia sculptor http://meowing.ccm.uc.edu/~ico
