This is just to let those who are interested know that I just commited
some fixes which greatly improve the sound quality in jackEQ and allow
the crossfaders to be fully functional including mute and all fader options.
Apart from being able to internally assign jack i/os I feel this version
qualifies for professional mixing use. To prove that I am going to be
using it live everyday for the next week while being paid to do so :)
Still only available from cvs you may need to wait a day or two to get
the newest version depending on the sf lag at the moment.

TODO:
internally assigning jack i/os
multiple interfaces - Long interface
- Tall interface (current)
extra button functionality - mostly for ease of use
unlimited channel support (mostly a gui design issue)
variety of xfader gain slopes for better mixing.
MIDI fader console support.

We want normal music!", I think that was more like acting than anything

Hi. If I want to resample from 96khz to 48khz, what would give the best
result: use libsamplerate, or just drop off odd (or even) samples?
I guess the libsamplerate and any of its interpolations would cause some
digital garbage anyway, or are they intellectual enough to detect that the
rate is halved and just perform a drop off?
Since I don't know any programs that would just halve the rate by
dropping, I'd have to code it myself, but it shouldn't be too hard.
Any suggestions?

Yes, AFAIK.

Hi all,
I've had an interesting discussion with a professor and a distinguished
member of the electroacoustic music community regarding audio latencies
which made me realize that I did not understand the issue in its
entirety. Hence, I looked around the net in order to educate myself.
I soon stumbled across the following site:
http://old.lwn.net/1999/0916/a/latency.html
Admittedly, it's quite old but that, if anything speaks only in Linux's
favor in terms of its pro-audio readiness. At any rate, I was checking
out the benchmark data and was wondering as to how did this
person/software app get to the 0.73ms buffer fragment that is equal to
128bytes? In other words, what sampling rate was used?
128 bytes in 44100Hz sampling rate = 3ms
128 bytes in 88200Hz sampling rate = 1.45ms
128 bytes in 176400Hz sampling rate = 0.725ms (this one being obviously
closest, but at the same time, what kind of hardware supports this
sampling rate, especially in 1999 when this test was done?)
128 bytes in 192000Hz sampling rate = 0.3ms
So what gives? It seems like it is some kind of a 176k-ish sampling rate
that, AFAIK does not exist.
Furthermore, my question is what app was used to produce those
graphs/results and whether these latency tests take into account
hardware latencies (i.e. DSP converters, PCI->CPU->PCI->output etc.), in
other words, is this latency that is achievable with the following
setup:
Input->soundcard->cpu(with some kind of DSP)->soundcard->Output
Your help on this matter is greatly appreciated!

Well, I want to add this question :
Does a ES1371 work ? ( it is the name Knoppix tells me, that is 'hwdetect' and this
should be the OSS-Layer ...)

two years ago i did a bunch of testing on latency to find the best kernel
and patches for my system, and got some damn good results with several
kernels (the best being 2.4.12-ac3-pe (alan cox's patch and pre-emptive
kernel patch using alsa on suse 7.3 with gcc 2.96 20000731). i now have a
new computer with gentoo linux and alsa 0.9.6, and can only get 16 ms
latency with perfect results. same soundcard - m-audio audiophile 2496
(ice1712). i've used kernel 2.4.20 with pe, ll, and some other options,
compiling with gcc version 3.2.3 20030422, and i get the same result with
all of them (as well as without pe or ll).
does anyone know what the problem could be? alsa version? gcc version?
kernel version? hardware (eth0 and soundcard share irq - never thought to
test without eth0 loaded)? i'd like to get latency under 4 ms.
thanks for your input,
dave
hello - I think this is a simple question - right now when I record into
ardour, there's dang near a half second delay before it actually spits it
back out - that delay is reflected in the recording, too - I didn't THINK
this was happening yesterday...
is this a latency thing? I know I haven't maximized my latency, I'm running
the redhat kernel from planet ccrma, not the actual planet ccrma kernel and
when I check to see if low latency is turned on, I find that I don't even
have a low latency patch :)
the weird thing is I SWEAR is wasn't happening yesterday :)

Keyboard "OUT" to Computer "IN" is the way ... then use aconnect.

Well, I thought exactly the same. Maybe I'll try another way ... Do you know
possibilities to connect a MIDI-keyboard to applications via the OSS-layer ?
Or can I make something wrong with alsa, too ?
I used 'aconnect 64 65' , where 64 is my External MIDI port and 65 is
the internal FM synthesizer... .
