[linux-audio-user] alsa rme hdsp driver, firmware rev 11

by Jaakko Prättälä

Hi all. Has anyone got a rme hdsp with firmware revision 11 working with alsa? If you do, could you send me your hdsp.c (maybe hammerfall_mem.c too) as an attachment? Or even better, a diff against current alsa cvs. I'd *so* like to get my multiface running. The red error led is nice, but a bit less than what I need from the card :-) If you have a non-working version, what error message do you get from the driver in /var/log/messages? I get: Mar 23 16:54:29 kiertotahti kernel: Hammerfall memory allocator: no Hammerfall cards found... Mar 23 16:54:29 kiertotahti kernel: RME Hammerfall-DSP: no cards found and on the command line: [root@kiertotahti jaakko]# /sbin/modprobe snd-hdsp /lib/modules/2.4.19scsi_lowlat_acpi/kernel/sound/pci/rme9652/snd-hdsp.o: init_module: No such device Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters. You may find more information in syslog or the output from dmesg /lib/modules/2.4.19scsi_lowlat_acpi/kernel/sound/pci/rme9652/snd-hdsp.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.19scsi_lowlat_acpi/kernel/sound/pci/rme9652/snd-hdsp.o failed /lib/modules/2.4.19scsi_lowlat_acpi/kernel/sound/pci/rme9652/snd-hdsp.o: insmod snd-hdsp failed I'm just trying to track where the error is. I don't even know my firmware version number but I suppose it's the latest since I just bought the multiface a few days ago. -- Jaakko Prättälä Jaakko.Prattala(a)Helsinki.FI

[linux-audio-user] Low latency patch for Mandrake 9.0 kernel

by Luke Yelavich

Hi folks I don't have the bandwidth, download allowance, or time to grab a Planet CCRMA kernel patched with low latency. I am wondering whether anybody knows where I could find patches that would successfully patch the Mandrake 9.0 default kernel source for low latency and pre-empt. Thanks in advance Luke.

[linux-audio-user] Midi output

by Alexander Feder

Hi! I'm new to that list, i'm Alexander Feder, student in Vienna. I play synthesizer and [E-]violin and finally want to try to sequence and record what i'm playing. It seems though there is lots to do before i can do that. I've bought a M-Audio Audiophile 24/96 card which i've set up using Alsa. Audio works fine when using the oss-emulation, but trying to access the card directly (aplay -D hw:0,0, or using the alsa-xmms plugin or with ecasound) fails with "Sample format non available". Isn't that odd? I've thought alsa-oss-emulation would be just another layer on top of what i would access when using aplay & co. .. Recording works fine (also using oss), i've used ecasound for adding nice real time effects while playing my e-violin. i can control everything with envy24control though.... Another problem i have is sequencing, actually midi as a whole. Neither outputting with pmidi, playmidi or muse works. I'm quite sure i've put all cables correctly into the Audiophile and my Yamaha CS1x synth. Both cables (male-male) are 5 pin, the one that i've plugged into the [in] in my soundcard and to [out] on my synth has 3 pins used (4,2,5 - the three in the middle) and the other cable has all 5 pins used. I've checked every combination with my ohm-meter, so there is no short-circuit. All pins are mapped 1:1. 'pmidi -l' gives 64:0 Rawmidi 0 - M Audio Audiophile M Audio Audiophile 24/96 MPU-401 trying to output a midi file with pmidi (which i have successfully outputted using playmidi on a pc with an sb16 and oss, iirc) results in no audible result. :/ (pmidi -p 64:0 test.mid) muse outputs something more interesting whenever a note should be played: MidiAlsaDevice::putEvent(): midi write error, returns -19 expected 28: No such device Which i further find odd is that muse is not willing to start playing unless i've first stepped into the config->audio system to apply the already activated setting of No Audio. Before that the transport indicator will not move. Further when i activate "Use Alsa" muse exits with the "ALSA: Sample format not available" message. So does this mean i can't trust what /proc/asound/seq/clients and pmidi -l says? or does that mean that at the other end, where my synth should be, is no device attached? same problem in the other direction. muse does not receive any signals from my cs1x. I've recorded with this cs1x successfully on another pc with.. another os.. so i think the hardware works. I'm using Debian GNU/Linux Sid on an Athlon, alsa 0.9.1-2 (for base and libs). The things i described both happen on vanilla 2.4.20 with the alsa drivers coming with debian (also 0.9.1-2) and on a 2.4.20 WOLK-kernel (rc3) with the integrated alsa-drivers. (these behave slightly different, for example i can't set the DAC volume with envy24control with the wolk-kernel - the sliders don't move. this works fine with the vanilla kernel.) what could i be doing wrong? or could it be that the soundcard itself is broken? i have no other OS to falsify that.. :/ thank you very much for any help in advance bye xandi

[linux-audio-user] planet CCRMA / muse core-dumps

by Guy Daniel CLOTILDE

Hi all I got Red Hat 8.0 on my toshiba 4300 laptop (ymfpci sound card). I followed all the planet ccrma install advices and ended with 'apt-get install muse'. But just after launch muse core-dumps. If I run 'muse some_song.mid' in a terminal I just can see the window with all the midi parts and then it disappears. It writes 'segmentation fault'. With my ymfpci card, I was able to play midifiles with playmidi (with Mandrake 9.0) . Everythings seems fine except midi sequencers. I wasn't able to run no midi sequencers either with Mandrake 9, that's why I tried Red Hat. I believe muse works perfectly good on other machines with red hat and planet ccrma. Everyone says that it works flawlessly, but mine doesn't :(( Anyone has a clue to why muse can't run ?

[linux-audio-user] Octavian 0.1.0 pre-beta released

by Roman Kaljakin

I am pleased to announce Octavian - a realtime software synthesizer for GNU\Linux operating system. Octavians's design is like analog modular synthesizers, so it can be used both as synth and as effect processor. Modular tasks separation allow to extend possibilities in simple way. Modules can be connected between each other via channels. Features: Audio Input/Output: - OSS - JACK MIDI Input/Output: - OSS - ALSA Plugin's compatability: - native modules - LADSPA This is first pre-beta release. It is a big subject for changes and improvements, so please send your wishes and bugreports.

hi, this is forwarded on behalf of a friend of mine, Martin Delaney aka 'mindlobster' (www.mindlobster.com). Martin is writing a book on laptop music and is seeking interviewees... anyone interested please write to Martin at the address below... thanx! m~ :::::::::::::::::::: martin delaney wrote: I've been commissioned by a well-known publisher to write a book about laptop music.

[linux-audio-user] New Machine

by Chris

Hi guys! (and gals). I am looking into building a new machine, and I want to do some home-studio recording with it. I was hoping that some of you could lend some of your expert advice. It sounds like SCSI is pretty-much a must in these situations, true? What I was wondering about in particular is if anyone has tried anything like this: Setting up a machine with an IDE hard drive to hold the system files (say an ata 133 7200 rpm...) and a scsi disk for the dumping ground of the audio programs such as ecasound, audacity or Ardour. I think I would put the swap partition on the scsi drive as well. Obviously I am trying to save a little money here, and I am trying to minimize latency. (I think that somewhere around the $2K mark is my limit.) I am accustomed to using multitrack analog units, but digital/computer recording is still extremely new to me. Any thoughts on this? I would also love to hear any suggestions regarding what disks, motherboards, cases and heatsinks people recommend and have had luck with. Thanks! Chris
