[linux-audio-user] using rear out on sblive

by Lukas Degener

Hi list, Is there any way to configure alsa so that it supports the front and rear output of an sblive as seperate output devices? Or something similar? I read somewhere that it should be possible with oss. so of course alsa can do it? And on top of this, would it actualy be possible to have those outputs represented as four seperat channels within jack? Regards, Lukas

[linux-audio-user] Which soundcard to buy?

by Gunnar Schmi Dt

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello, For updating the computer of my father I am looking for a sound card with SP/DIF input that is supported with Linux. My father is a flute teacher and he often records his concerts with a DAT recorder. Until recently he used an Atari Falcon in order to copy these material onto CDs. However, now he wants to switch to Linux. (He is more a Linux user, so all the administration stuff for his Linux box is done by me.) As the computer does not yet have an SP/DIF interface I will buy a soundcard which has such an interface (The DAT recorder uses optical cables). Our computer vendor suggested to buy a Creative Soundblaster Platinum. By browsing through the internet I found a Hoontech SoundTrack Digital XG which seems to have all needed features at a reasonable price. Are these two cards supported (inclusive the digital input)? Does anyone got some experiences with these cards? Do they allow the sound data to go unaltered to the hard disk (without sample rate conversion, mixing in analog input etc.)? Are there other cards that I should have a look on?

[linux-audio-user] Anyone able to run Csound in Linux in real-time?

by ico＠fuse.net

Hi all, I've been messing with Csound recently in order to see whether csound can be used well in real-time settings. The problem is that I tried icsound and the other csound (forget the source) and neither were able to output anything in real-time. I've used -o devaudio flag, also -W (for wave) output, and while my scorefile finished without any errors, I got no sound out. If I try to do <csound call> > /dev/dsp I get garbage sound since the header is all screwed up by the verbose output of the csound process. I am using latest ALSA and I compiled csound from scratch and still no luck. So, I was wondering if anyone had any luck running it in real-time. P.S. I've been also having a terrible time trying to compile externals in the icsound (i.e. OSCext and others). I get a huge number of errors and am not sure where the problems is stemming from. Any help is greatly appreciated! Ico

Oggs and mp3s can be now streamed directly from network. Author information is now visible in the LADSPA plugin descriptions.

[linux-audio-user] Re: Collaboration

by Felix Dijder

Well, I have been using a mixed environment between Linux and Windows for recording, mixing and mastering and so far I have got good results (http://www.artistcollaboration.com/~loauc) That site is aimed to people willing to collaborate and they provide free space (web and ftp), open forums and basically what we are looking in this collaboration thread. Take a look at it: http://www.artistcollaboration.com They have a fast connection and there is a general agreement that mixes are posted as mp3 (or ogg, some prefer that) and individual tracks are posted either as wma or ape (a loseless codec capable of compressing around 25 % of the original wav size). There has been also a discussion about porting n-Track to Linux, it could be what is needed, just hang around the n-track forum (http://www.fasoft.com/) and you'll realize what I'm talking about. FD

[linux-audio-user] Collaboration

by Levi Burton

Greetings, I was just curious if anyone on the list has attempted to collaborate musicly? By "collaborate" I mean sharing of things such as "tracks" of audio (I would assume this is the prefered method, unless MIDI is utilized and everyone has the same hardware - doubtfull). I would think this sort of thing would be easy. Simply decide on a musical theme (mood, BPM, etc etc), and have at it. -- Levi Burton http://www.puresimplicity.net/~ldb/
