Re: [linux-audio-user] JACK splat

by Taybin Rutkin

What's your soundcard? I think being able to open a sound device multiple times is dependent on if the hardware supports that. I can run jack and xmms (without the jack plugin) concurrently on my sb512.

[linux-audio-user] Can you say CheeseTracker ?

by Dave Phillips

Greetings: Is anyone on this last using CheeseTracker 0.8.0 ? I like it, but I've run into a number of problems. I've already mentioned some bugs to reduz and I'll prepare a better report for him. But meanwhile I wondered if anyone else here is even using it.

RE: [linux-audio-user] Loops

by Taybin Rutkin

As far as I know, the paint feature is still in there. I don't know if it still works though. There are a lot of features, and we might not know if something is broken until someone tries it out.

We had this discussion back around last January. Actually, someone did a patch for Ardour that painted loops much like Acid does. You placed the loop where you wanted it to start and then did a drag to the right. If you went farther than the length of the loop then Ardour put in a second copy of the loop, just like Acid. Ardour was actually sort of nicer than Acid in that you could put multiple loops on the same track. Acid doesn't allow that. I think that none of this eventually made it into CVS, but I could be wrong. maybe the functionality is there somewhere. (I don't use Ardour.) - Mark

[linux-audio-user] multitrack

by felix.news＠qodiga.com

Hello! I'm looking for the best multitrack for linux. I was used audacity, and protux. I think that ardour is the best [just only reading the features and watching screenshots] but I have a problem with jackd. What is the best multitrack, hard disk recording for linux? Anyone have jackd working with es1370 chipset? [sound blaster awe 128] I have a Turtle Beach montego... but is a little bit difficult to compile the module for me [vortex 1] thanks a lot, Félix

[linux-audio-user] Audacity and MIDI

by mawali＠news.icns.com

Hi Thanks for getting my son hooked on audacity, but now I am getting more questions. I have audacity-1.2 now and I like the feature (esp looping). I can import a MIDI file but then cannot play it. I do not see any setting for MIDI out on the preferences. I get a device not found error when I play a midi track. Am I missing anything. Thanks

Re: [linux-audio-user] Linux synths

by Ken Locarnini

Hi Atte, I've used Csound alot in the past too. Mostly command line from Common Music which I like alot. I'm trying to go more real-time though now. I just decided I would try and get into PD! How is your orchestra set-up. Do you have 1 synth per instrument per channel? I always had a hard time in Csound as I wanted to have 1 synth per 16 channels and have them all have their own set of presets. PD supports multiple midi ports so I thought that would probably work, though learning another language will be tough as I know Csound well. I also want the graphic routines, and as you know Csound dosen't have the Opengl stuff in Linux, (yet). I also don't understand the status of Csound right now. Is anyone actually working on coding Csound5? I'm on the lists but can't tell. Thanks, Ken -----Original Message----- From: Atte Andr?

I'm primarily interested in > realtime, multi timbral midi controlled synths. I simply love csound. It's flexible, powerful, stable and well documented. I know that some (most?) people find the fact that it's text based a minus, but I don't agree. After working with pd intensely for a couple of weeks I realized that I work much faster in csound. I'm running csound under debian/unstable on kernel 2.6.0-test5 with a csound buffersize of 128 on a PIV 2400 laptop, using Evolution USB keyboards as controllers. I have more polyphony in real time than I can use with two hands for "normal" (subtractive, fm, sample playback, soundfont playback, additive) patches. This is even with a few global FX units (chorus, delay and rotary speaker) running all the time. The only not-so-nice thing about csound is that I didn't manage (or try that hard, actually) to make it run alongside other sound-producing applications, including jack, pd or fluidsynth. Could be a problem if you want to use LADSPA plugins or do hd-recording... > How about sequencers? I didn't work much with sequencers under linux, but FWIW I've settled on Muse. Needless to say it's quite simple to route midi events from Muse to csound. -- peace, love & harmony Atte

[linux-audio-user] Linux synths

by Ken Locarnini

I'm happy to be back after about 2 years away from Linux. The audio/music world seems to be taking off and thats great. I'd like some general comments on what would be peoples favorite reactor type synth in Linux as of now. I'm primarily interested in realtime, multi timbral midi controlled synths. How about sequencers? Thanks for any advice, Ken
