June meeting of the Sydney Linux Audio/ Music Group
http://www.slug.org.au/events/detail.html?id=71
----- Forwarded message from Denis Crowdy <dcrowdy(a)pip.hmn.mq.edu.au> -----
Second Meeting of SLUGAMuSIG - Linux Audio/ Music Special Interest Group
When: Saturday, June 14; 10am onwards
Where: Macquarie University, Department of Contemporary Music Studies,
building W6A, room 607
All interested in music/ audio and Linux are invited for the second
gathering of the group. A more detailed list of proposed discussions will
follow shortly, but the general plan is a demonstration/ discussion in the
morning, followed by an open session of jamming/ coding/ talking in the
afternoon. All levels of interest are welcomed.
A relevant map of Macquarie is at http://www.ccms.mq.edu.au/crowdy/macmap.html.
The best way to get to the Music Department (on the 6th floor of building
W6A) is from the Balaclava Rd entrance (opposite Woolies from Epping Rd).
The closest parking is "W4", and costs $6.00 for the whole day.
For people arriving at various times through the day, the front door might
be locked, but we'll keep an eye out, or call me on 0408 478 802.

----- End forwarded message -----
The Rosegarden team have great pleasure in announcing the immediate
availability of Rosegarden-4 0.9.1. Rosegarden-4 is a MIDI and audio
sequencer and score editor for Linux and is available for download
from the project homepage:
http://www.all-day-breakfast.com/rosegarden
The source is also available directly from Sourceforge:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=4932
This is mainly a bugfix release. It is recommended that anyone using
Rosegarden-4-0.9 upgrade to this latest release immediately to take
advantage of improved quality and stability.
New features:
o Mup export
o Step recording in Notation and Matrix views
o Convert single repeat to real segment (by double-click)
o Only one Rosegarden instance can run at a time
Bugs fixed: over two dozen serious bugs including various crashes,
major memory leaks, UI problems etc. See the home page for more
information and links to the SourceForge tracker pages.

jc
A python script for controlling jack connections
http://home.earthlink.net/~krautj/
jc is an interactive command-line script that enables you to connect and disconnect jack ports with a few short keystrokes. It requires the pyjack module by Andrew W. Schmeder and was built with python-2.2. You may also choose to sever all ports from a given port or disconnect single ports. There is a help screen. It's the first thing I've ever written, let alone ever written in python, and comments and improvements are welcome. Good luck! And thanks to everyone developing audio software for linux!

<<< You were right about the number of faders with the Delta 1010 - I
<<< checked in the studio, and I only see HW In 1-8, PCM Out 1-8 and
the
<<< two S/PDIF faders. Two rows would do, or maybe three if you put the
<<< S/PDIF faders in line with channels 1 and 2. Then you could specify
<<< how many rows and how many channels you wanted...
Many thanks to Ross for his excellent work here. On the topic of space
and functions on the envy24control panel, I had some questions and
ideas. I appologize for the length!
First on space, could you not cut the number of graphical channel pairs
in half? In other words, why are there "stereo" linked fader pairs for
each individual mono PCM 1-10? I noticed that on the Mac/PC version of
the delta mixer...
http://www.midiman.net/products/m-audio/images/delta-pane3.jpg
...these actually represent stereo pairs. 1 is the left channel of the
first pair (PCM 1), 2 the right (PCM 2), etc. Channels can then be
paired/unpaired as desired ("stereo linked").
This setup saves alot of real-estate meaning only 5 pairs on the panel
for outputs and 5 for inputs even on the 1010 (though it does mean a
split vu meter for each). The first 4 are analog PCM pairs, the last
two are the stereo pair for SPDIF.
Outputs:
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 |
PCM 1/2 PCM 3/4 PCM 5/6 PCM 7/8 SPDIF L/R (9/10)
...likewise for Inputs.
As it stands now, not only is there duplication, but it is also
impossible to link stereo-pair levels on the panel.
As to the additional hardware output control, this is absolutely
necessary when, as in my case, the analog outputs go directly to
powered monitors. Without them, levels must be controlled by exterenal
harware. But couldn't this functionality be built into to the PCM
out's already there?
Right now on my Delta 1010 (ALSA 0.93 in PlanetCCRMA) these PCM-out
faders/mutes do nothing to the signal level at all unless I route it
somewhere internally, like to the "Digital Mix". Shouldn't these
faders control the hardware-out level when routed directly from PCM
Outs in the Patchbay (as they all are by default on my machine)?
Thanks again for everything. Your work is much appreciated.
Very best,
Kevin

Hi!
First Release.
This program is released GNU/GPL version 2.
Horgand is a organ, is my first attempt to do something with sound, generates
sound like a FM synthesizer in real time. And i try to add some DSP effects,
rotary, chorus, tremolo, delay ...
Is Jack capable and recognizes MIDI Program Change (1-32), Volume,
Modulation...
Horgand is tested on a PIII 966 (Debian Sid ) and PII 300 (Gentoo).
REQUERIMENTS:
* FAST COMPUTER
* LINUX
* ALSA
* JACK
* FLTK 1.1
I'm musicien, not programer i do this only for fun.
Take a look in http://personal.telefonica.terra.es/web/soudfontcombi/
Comments and patches will be apeciatted

Wanted: something that will read /dev/sequencer (OSS or ALSA) and write
a MIDI file.
I like point functionality ... where what you need is done by some small
tool, and you don't have to load something huge.
While Rosegarden4 is working for me now, capturing a sequence to a MIDI
file is quite complex in terms of mouse and keyboard operations.
I yearn for something so simple I can enclose it in a shell script, or
hit up arrow and enter to restart it ...
If it generated a tick through PC speaker, sound card, or MIDI, even
better. ;-)

This synth has a mainboard running Linux inside :)
Seems like not only Stanton (Final Scratch) is relying on
Linux in the pro audio world these days ..
