Hello,
as both the participants of the 1st LAD conference and people at ZKM
enjoyed the meeting, Frank and I asked for the possibility to hold a
second meeting at ZKM next year.
The answer was positive and therefore we can announce that the 2nd LAD
conference is planned to take place April 29th - May 2nd 2004 at ZKM Karlsruhe.
the option to have more room. In addition to the rooms we had for the last
conference, we now have the option to also use a hall which is about double
the size of the lecture hall we used for the last meeting. This hall is even
more attractive since it is the recording studio of ZKM and can also serve as
a concert hall. This time there is also the option to invite artists who
actually do music with Linux software.
Early registrations (email either me or Frank Neumann <Frank.Neumann_AT_st.com>)
would help us to estimate the approximate scale of the event which can be
even larger than last time. If you can do a talk or presentation please let
us know the subject and estimated time you need for this. Depending on the
number of talks we can decide whether we will have two parallel sessions.
If the program of the event is fixed earlier than last time, this will
help to advertise it in journals and among relevant companies. It might
also help to find possible sponsors.
Updates on this will follow from time to time.

The DSP24 works fine in Linux. There are a number of ST Audio products built on it. I have the DSP2000 C-Port and it works fine. M-Audio has a card based on the same chipset. I think it's the Audiophile 2496.

Audigy2 has faily decent all around linux support with Alsa, although I don't think you'll get at 24bit x 192khz i/o. It'll basically act as a Live! w/ really nice DACs :P

Version 2.2.0 of the musical score editor NoteEdit is available:
http://rnvs.informatik.tu-chemnitz.de/~jan/noteedit/noteedit.html
New features:
- export ABC music (http://abcplus.sourceforge.net)
Please read The ABC music export discussion page
The tool abcm2ps (http://moinejf.free.fr)
very surprising software, because:
o it consits of only 10 short C files,
o it compiles in less than 30 seconds,
o it converts Beethoven's 5th symphony (1st mov.)
in less than 10 seconds to PostScript
o it deals with a very easy comprehensible source
language (ABC music)
o it is GPL
o it needs no TeX or LaTex installation.
- MusiXTeX: export in \smallmusicsite, \largemusicsize, \Largemusicsize
- LilyPond:
o drum notes can be exported as "normal" notes. This is because the
LilyPond drum notes handling sometimes produces) weird results.
o anacrusis works (again)

Hello, would appreciate any help with this.
Trying to compile legasynth but its got me stumped. ./configure runs okay but
it complains it can build but cannot execute a gtkmm file. If I skip the
Gtkmm check, (and dependency check) it then breaks early on in the compile.
I am using Debian (sid) and have tried uninstalling libgtkmm-dev and
installing the tarball but to no avail: same symptoms.

When I was about 10 (around 1960), the place my father worked

Folks,
Thanx once again for the help, however i feel stupid. After all that. I found
i had the cables connected to the "In" on my minidisc player rather than the
"Out".
Sigh..and i checked them 3 times...
Now it all works great, save that's it's a little noisy, but acceptable. It
just feels good to be getting this irreplaceable stuff on to a more permanent

Thank folks, for all the comments on this. I'll be turning off my amp from
know on (aside from unforseen reboots). As vara s th audiophile vs. music
lover debate, i agree whole heartly. I'm both. I'm a music lover 'cause i
love the music first and foremost. I enjoy having rather esoteric taste from
metal to folk, to classical, to blues. I love music and have been a singer
many times in this life. oh, yeah, choral music, can;t forget Trinity College
Caimbridge. :)
The audiophile side of me lives side by side with music lover. I could care
les about the branding, the fancy heavy feel knobs (a la Mark Levinson), the
fancy looks. What i want is to hear every last bit (literally) of the music
that i love. I enjoy the differences in the way it is produces through
different systems. I'm not oafter th holy grail of "close as possible to live
production", after all, most live production I heard was aweful. I enjoy the
art of it.
Both the music lover and audiophile in my HATE the compression that is done on
cds. It kills me to think of the music i am not hearing just to make the
whole thing sound louder and more exciting to your average listener. You
know, the kind of person who uses music a background and thinks that mp3 are
ok. No offence menat, but i'm just not that kind of person. I love DVD-Audio
and SACD and hope that one of 'em becomes the standard. As a computer user, I
prefer DVD-Audio, as it's easier to deal with.
My dream system is a good sound card directly into a good class D amp (i just
lost my audiophile status right there !), with Sound Lab MB-1 speakers. These
are monsterous electrostats that actually reproduce the entire fequency range
including below 20hz. You won;t find them on teh soundlab web page, but i
got to hear them. It kept me high for days. I want some. After all thier
only about $17k a pair. Well, i can dream can't i?
Happy listening,
Bearcat M. Sandor
> I'm an audiophile (how many of you are?)
It occurs to me that most musicians are interested in sound quality.
However, some audiophiles are more interested in the science of sound
rather than actually listening to music, and I find this very dull.
You can tell people like that if they spent a lot on hi-fi but don't
have any good records, or choose records because they show off the
equipment rather than because they like the music...

As I understand it, cheaper amps have a built-in anti-thump circuit,
but audiophile amps don't because it would interfere with the signal
path. So I'd recommend always dropping the power amp level to zero
before rebooting your box.

Hi
I've downloaded a monster: the whole 1,4 Gb set of piano samples from
university of Iowa. It's a steinway sampled key by key at 3 different
velocities. Unfortunately, I only have 68 Mb of RAM in my sampler, so I
have to rip them a bit ;)
The samples are very good, but not edited at all, so they have a lot of
silence at the end and a variable amount of silence at the beginning.
I wonder if the mighty ecasound can save me to edit 88*3=264 samples by
hand with a sort of automatic trimming based on amplitude.
TIA

That was probably not a dot matrix printer but a line
printer - they made lovely tunes depending on the
text you sent to them. Optical paper tape readers
just said "swooosh", and the mechanical ones said
"brrrrr" - not quite to my musical taste.
Bet all these kids on the list don't have a clue what
we are talking about, eh?
Off topic again, aren't we.

I was trying to build swh-plugins 0.42 from the tarball on Mandrake,
but configure complained about a lack of fftw3f. Mandrake doesn't
include up to date RPMs of fftw.
I had to build fftw 3.0 from source using ./configure --enable-float
then add an environment variable in bash:
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig
Just thought other Mandrake users might like to know that...
Cheers
