Subject: Linux Audio Workshop
Hi,
Sorry for the super late notice, but I am doing a Linux Audio Workshop
for artists in Queens, today Sunday Nov 30th from 3pm to 6pm. It is
quite informal and free, the main goal is to demystify Linux as a work
platform for artists.
I will not be going into the nitty gritty of getting applications and
drivers running, I will rather be showing off several applications on a
functioning debian system: ardour, pd, audacity, the ladspa plugins, but
generally the format will be rather loose.
The workshop is being held as part of the technology initiative of the
flux factory an artist's community in queens. Flux Factory will be
hosting an installfest in the future to deal with the hairer bits of
installing a artist's work station (stay tuned).

Hi all1!
I've been trying to install mplayer with live.com's rtp/rtsp support. But it
fails. The ./configure works fine, but then gmake give errors in demux_rtp.*
What do I need to download to perform this properly? How do I need to
compile the liveMedia stuff? I mean: are there special options or c-flags to
set?
I must admit: I'm in need of a guide! :-) Thanks for any help!
Kindest regards
Julien

Audio Workshop: Marco Scoffier will [snip]
hi Marco,
glad to see someone up to something similar. I thought you might benefit
from some docs I have made on my own Linux Audio workshops in Amsterdam
and the Balkans. If you make some docs for your own workshop, would you
please let me [and maybe the Linux Audio User list] know?
best

I would appreciate some advices as to what HW do I need to do some
simple recording.
Here's what I would like to be able to do:
tasks: record a guitar, possibly other instruments (not neccessarily
at the same time), record old vinyl from turntable etc. [using linux PC]
in:
few audio channels (I can think of using 2 or 4 so I guess I should
plan for about 8?)
midi
out:
just stereo audio? or optical digital something? does it make sense
to have many outputs?
midi
other:
full duplex, I think built in midi wavetable synth is good enough for
me, not sure about external mix (I've read recommendation to have one
but I'm not sure why).
I've read that Delta* cards are fairly good and well supported under
linux - looks like delta 66 is what I want? What about Delta 1010-LT -
same price, more in/out but no external box (=lower sound quality?).
What about midi? I'd like to have midi in/out and wavetable synth
(not sure if I really need synth). The sync-ing midi and audio is done
by apps so I don't have to worry about cards working well together?
I can read the specs but I'd really appreciate practical advices
since I have almost no experience (well, I have few audio cards:-).
TIA

Hi all!
Does anyone have practical experience with installing festival? I tried it
earlier, but it didn't work out.
First some info on my system:
suse linux 8.2
kernel: 2.4.19
gcc3.2 (or 3.1)
The usual libraries
So then: What do I need to install the festival synthesizer, festvox-voices
and a tts
system? Can I use some mbrola tts-tool?
I'd like to install festival from the sources. If this is advisable and
realiseable without dificulties.
Kindest regards and thanks for any help

MidiComp is a program to manipulate SMF (Standard MIDI File) files and
will both read and write SMF files in 0 or format 1 and also read and
write it's own plain text format. This means a SMF file can be turned
into easily parseble text, edited with any text editor or filtered
through any script language, and "recompiled" back into a binary SMF
file. The package can be downloaded from...

Hi there. It's been a while i'm wondering if this soundcard is linux
usable, especially the SPDIF facilities (since it's why my wife is
interested in this card.) The open source drivers projects around
creative products didn't convince me of wether this card do function or
not under our prefered OS. On this archive i found some hope but i would
thank a lot to hear "Yes boy you jusrt can relax plug your minidisc in
and enjoy."
sorry for the bad english and all and thanks for advices
