[linux-audio-user] Basic linux audio problems

by Michael Tench

I'm having trouble getting my audio hardware to work under linux. I'm not sure if this is the correct place to ask a qustion like this though... I'm getting noise on the audio input with a faint shadow of what I'm trying to record. I'm trying to get one sound card working first and hope to add one or two more. Michael Tench

[linux-audio-user] LAU meeting next week at the Expo?

by Daniel James

For those list members who are going to the postponed LinuxUser & Developer Expo next week in Birmingham (that's England, not Alabama) is there interest in rescheduling the informal linux-audio-users meeting I originally proposed? I'm going to be there all three days, but I'd prefer to meet up on the Thursday, say 12.30pm for lunch? Meet at the Rosegarden stand? Hopefully it will have calmed down a bit by then and I'll be able to get away from our own stand... Cheers Daniel

[linux-audio-user] Linux Music and Sound

by Michael Hall

Hi All: I'm wondering if Dave Phillip's book 'Linux Music and Sound' is still a good buy. Given that it was published 3 years ago, would much of the material now be out of date? TIA Mick

[linux-audio-user] 2nd LAD conference in Karlsruhe

by Matthias Nagorni

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. Matthias -- Dr. Matthias Nagorni SuSE Linux AG Deutschherrnstr. 15-19 phone: +49 911 74053375 D - 90429 Nuernberg fax : +49 911 74053483

RE: [linux-audio-user] Audigy 2 and DSP24

by eviltwin69＠cableone.net

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.

[linux-audio-user] noteedit-2.2.0 (export ABC music)

by Joerg Anders

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) -- J.Anders, Chemnitz, GERMANY (ja(a)informatik.tu-chemnitz.de)

[linux-audio-user] compiling legasynth problem:

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.

[linux-audio-user] Re: I need help recording from soundcard

by Bearcat M. Sandor

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 media. Thanx, Bearcat M. Sandor

[linux-audio-user] Re: linux-audio-user digest, Vol 1 #516 - 14 msgs

by Bearcat M. Sandor

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... > I have hooked my sound card > directly to my amp (a Carver TFM-75x) which puts out about 380 > watts per channel into 8 ohms. 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. Cheers Daniel
