Jack 0.75.0 has been released. Changes: Fixed pipe issues on Redhat systems (and others, perhaps) I'd also like to point out a new program qjackctl (http://qjackctl.sourceforge.net). It's a qt interface for controlling jack and it looks very promising. Taybin

[linux-audio-user] Wine, JACK and audio from Windows apps

by Lee Azzarello

I got a little ambitious this weekend. Installed Wine, configured it according to the docs on winehq.org and everything seems good. I can run notepad.exe... :) wow, he says sarcasticaly. Of course my big reason for even bothering with Wine is so I can install my favoirte audio app for Windows, a tracker called Jeskola Buzz. Now mind you, I don't have Windows installed on my Gentoo system, only Wine, and the ebuild is the CVS version 20030618-r1. I downloaded the base installer for Buzz and it installed! Now I run Buzz and it tells me it can't find the waveOut device, and crashes :( Does anyone else have experience with using Wine and getting audio apps to work? My Linux audio system uses ALSA. -l[e^2] ------------------------------ http://www.fallingforward.net/ people experimenting with music, art and technology

[linux-audio-user] drum machine, "beats by design"

by Robert Jonsson

Hi guys, I came a java based drum machine/step sequencer on freshmeat the other day called "Beats by Design". To be truthful I didn't get it to do anything fancy, but my test was fairly short. The description of it suggests it could be really cool though, it uses neural-nets in the engine (if I understand it correctly) to adapt and improvise. I just wondered if anyone tried it and got it to do anything useful? it's at: http://bbd.sourceforge.net Regards, Robert

[linux-audio-user] 3MU: anybody using it?

by S. Massy

Hi, 3MU--- TB303 emulator--- seems like a neat bit of software, albeit unmaintained, but unfortunately there doesn't appear to be a single example source file around and the only documentation available appears to be the source itself. Does anybody know of or have some input files for it? So far, searches only seem to yield dead links. Thanks, S.M.

[linux-audio-user] Seeking advice on a suitable CLI synth engine

by S. Massy

Hi, For a while now I've wanted to fiddle with a reasonably powerful synthesis engine but haven't found a suitable one yet. I've been dying to give csound a good try but haven't succeeded in compiling it yet, and I've tried cmix but have found it a bit too "low-level" for my humble tastes. My problem is that most of the interesting synthesis engines and synth emulators today seem to come with a GUI and I can't use one, nor do I care to, to be frank. So, does anyone have a suggestion for a fairly powerful CLI synth engine I might try? Thanks, S.M.

[linux-audio-user] playing .PAT's via Jack

by Rob

Replying to the Wine thread reminded me of something I was thinking about last week and meant to ask the list. I've seen a number of sample playback engines or programs that play .SF2 soundfonts, and for .PAT's of course there's Timidity++. Is there any way to run T++ as a Jack application, or run some other application that incorporates T++ somehow to use my vast collection of .PAT files from my GUSPnP days as soundfonts? If not, is there any way under Linux to convert my .PAT's to .SF2's? I suppose I could buy Awave and try to get it working under Wine, but since there shouldn't be any actual data conversion going on I'd think someone might have written such a converter app years ago. Maybe an ALSA-aware app would be good enough, since I'm running ALSA on my laptop now - I haven't actually tried to assemble a sequencer/synth suite under Linux yet because I haven't had any idea what to do with all my PAT files except render static .mid files to .wav using Timidity.

RE: [linux-audio-user] GM soundfont

by Reuben Martin

>As for good fonts... the big ones are pretty good, perhaps best is Fluid3 >(should be on hammersound), but that one is BiiiiiiiiG... Does anybody know where to get this Fluid III font? I have been looking for it and the ALL in ONE GM v1.1. They are nowhere to be found. There are lots of links to thesoundsite.net but that site seems to be defunct and Hammersound is a ghost town. I was able to get ahold of the MEGA Sound Bank v2.50 and it works quite well as a GS/GM sound font. You can get it at www.jchyun.com/~afterdan/MegaV25.rar If anyone knows where I can get the other two please let me know. Maybe we should see if gentoo would host these major sound fonts in portage... -Reuben

[linux-audio-user] Casio CTK-671 under Linux

by Lex Ross

Hi All, I am just switching to Linux and am trying to find something that can make my Casio CTK-671 keyboard work. It has no buit-in rhythm programming but rhythms can be downloaded into it through MIDI interface. These are available for download from Casio music web site http://music.casio.com/e/671/ But there is no software that allows you to compose the ones of your own. Not to mention that there is no Linux version of the software. There is a 60-page MIDI manual however http://ftp.casio.co.jp/pub/world_manual/emi/en/ctk_671/midi.pdf and Windows version of the downloader: http://music.casio.com/e/671/before.html With these I hope I will be able to figure out how to program and download rhytms into the keyboard. I wonder however is there is a standard protocol? Do you know of anyone who ever tried to figure this out? It makes sense to learn what others have done so far before starting a new project. I would appreciate your help and any information that you may have. Kind regards, Lex
