[linux-audio-user] Raid setup (kinda OT)

by Bryan Koschmann - GKT

Hello, While I know this is specfically an audio group, I'm thinking this is still related, but I apologize if it is too far off topic. I was wondering if anyone here has setup an IDE raid, either via hardware or software. I ask because I know it usually would speed up disk access which is good for realtime audio work (I had to work on a scsi system with a layla for a customer of mine). I was looking at doing a striped raid with 2 80 gigs (or maybe 2 120s). I tried to setup a striping (then later a mirror) on my other machine running slack 8.0 but had absolutely no luck whatsoever. Neither the hardware on my motherboard (HPT370 on abit VP6) or just a simple software raid worked. I will probably be using the same board for audio recording unless someone has a better suggestion (looking at asus). So, if anyone can give me any recommendations or hints/tips I would be quite happy. :) Thanks in advance, Bryan

[linux-audio-user] advice hardware + planet ccrma

by Jane DT

Hello, We are in need of some advice about (i) whether our existing hardware is suitable for installing planet, mainly for streaming purposes. (ii) recommendation of a cheap soundcard. any advice would be very gratefully received. We are running a community show on a local radio in an open space right now, and are broadcasting on FM, via the stream. mp3/ogg. The stream is 64k. That is really the entire purpose of a machine we are thinking about installing here. There is a machine that we can dedicate than this: it would have no other purpose really. We would like to install ccrma, but have the following system, and wonder if it can cope, and whether ccrma is capable of dealing with it: it is a double processor: 2x133, 64mb. can this cope with live 64k encoding? and can the RH planet ccmra cope with the double processor? We are a volunteer grassroots project and have a very little budget (our equipmednt is donated, hence the system above). Could someone advise on a sound card for under $50? (either for this machine or another) thanks very much for any help! please could you mail me directly as well as the list (its very hectic here as we're on this every day at he moment). jane

[linux-audio-user] SBLive rear analog output

by Christophe Vescovi

Hello, I have a SBLive and under Windoze I was using the rear analog out as my main output since it provide a better signal (due to the I2C DAC instead of the AC97 codec). After installing Alsa and playing with amixer I managed to get the rear output work .. but only for the wave out !! I could not hear the Digital CD out nor the internal synth output !! I switched to the front output and everything work fine. Does someone know how to route CD output and Synth output to the rear out ? Thanks in advance, -- Christophe

[linux-audio-user] GWC & libsndfile

by Howard Sanner

I'm trying to compile Gnome wave cleaner. When I run configure, it tells me that I need libsndfile 1.0.0 or greater. I already downloaded libsndfile 1.0.4, and did the usual configure/make/make install. However, GWC's configure program still gives me the same error message. I don't know what's going on. Thanks.

[linux-audio-user] Interesting audio software coming to Linux.

by philicorda

Hi. I just saw in sound on sound that Raw Material are intending to release a Linux version of their Tracktion software for Linux. It's a multitrack sequencer kind of thing, the look reminds me a bit of Ableton Live. " By August 2003 versions for the Mac and Linux will also be available, and by the end of 2003, there should really be nothing left to add!" http://www.rawmaterialsoftware.com/tracktion/index.html

Re: [linux-audio-user] iCubeX experiences?

by Oyvind Hammer

I have talked to a number of iCube users through the years (haven't used it myself). Most of them seem to agree that although it's a powerful device, it's 1) too complex to set up (that's the cost of its flexibility), and 2) the analogue inputs are noisy and there is considerable crosstalk. There are several competing boxes on the market, such as IRCAM Atomic and the Sensorlab. NoTAM in Norway used to sell one (designed by me), but I'm not sure if they still do.

[linux-audio-user] pcmcia configuration for multiface

by Jaakko Prättälä

I'm still trying to get my multiface+cardbus recognized. At the moment it makes no difference if the card is in the slot or not when I modprobe snd-hdsp Now I'll just suppose that I patched the driver right and the problem is with my pcmcia setup. I've never used any pcmcia devices so this is quite possible. I have a hp xe4100 laptop with a pcmcia slot that takes one card of any type (I, II, III) at a time. ____ What does a working kernel configuration look like? Here's some of mine that I thought might matter: CONFIG_PCI=y # CONFIG_PCI_GOBIOS is not set # CONFIG_PCI_GODIRECT is not set CONFIG_PCI_GOANY=y CONFIG_PCI_BIOS=y CONFIG_PCI_DIRECT=y CONFIG_PCI_NAMES=y # CONFIG_EISA is not set # CONFIG_MCA is not set CONFIG_HOTPLUG=y CONFIG_PCMCIA=m CONFIG_CARDBUS=y # CONFIG_TCIC is not set # CONFIG_I82092 is not set # CONFIG_I82365 is not set # CONFIG_HOTPLUG_PCI is not set ____ I have pcmcia-cs installed with rhl8.0 (rpm's called kernel-pcmcia-cs-3.1.31-9) but I have no idea what to do with it. Should I? ____ Here's some more info: # cat /proc/pci [...] Bus 0, device 10, function 0: CardBus bridge: PCI device 1217:6972 (O2 Micro, Inc.) (rev 0). IRQ 11. Master Capable. Latency=168. Min Gnt=128.Max Lat=5. Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0x10000000 [0x10000fff]. [...] # /sbin/cardctl status Socket 0: no card (no matter what) I don't even know what info you people would need to be able to help so I'm just dumping this stuff. Please ask me if you need something specific. All and any help is greatly appreciated, as always. -- Jaakko Prättälä Jaakko.Prattala(a)Helsinki.FI
