[linux-audio-user] Re: [ecasound] Open Studio HOWTO?

by Michal Seta

OK, I'm crossposting this to LAU because I think there are lots of people who might provide some valuable input. you can subscribe here: http://www.linuxdj.com/audio/lad/subscribelau.php3 Let's continue it there, OK?

Getting the lowest cost & highest quality studio is everybody's concern. Unfortunately, when you're on a low budget you have to make a compromise here and there. I didn't really think hard about it but I don't think there should be an OpenStudio 'standard' in terms of equipment, software and such. People could provide lists with reccomandations for various setup issues, low cost equipment etc but the setup will depend on every studio's needs nad technician/engineer/director's preferences. > > So what I ask you Kai, Justin, Michael, Tom Poe and all you open-sound fans is > something like an "OpenStudio HOWTO", that would provide a basic framework > with the best solutions for setting up a (network oriented?) home recording > studio, covering both hardware and software issues. In my previous post I threw an idea, very lightly, about an OpenStudio Gazette and Tom picked up on it and now I started brewing some ideas about it. I think that it'd be very useful to reach people and provide information, share ideas/experiences, success sotires (both studios and artists) and stuff like that. So, since last night and today I was thinking about this for the gazette: 1. having short articles deling with: a. legal issues for artists - copyright laws, various artistic licences etc explained in plain english (& other languages if translations become a reality b. software/equipment/setup issues 2. tips and tricks for setting up and running such studios 3. aesthetic type of essay on a related topic 4. announcments, classifieds and things like that and maybe even ads for OpenStudio friendly gear for sale/buy and such. We could seek contributions from the Linux, open source, alternative licences people and release it on a monthly or bi-monthly basis (depending how much contribution & content we can pull). I could take a plunge at an article once in a while. > > I could help translating it into Italian and Spanish, or if none is willing > to, I could start writing the basis and then we could fill it up together, > but I'd like to hear what do you all think first.

Re: [linux-audio-user] ardour localization

by Martin Wolters

Alexandre, emails to your address avp(a)altlinux.ru always bounce. I hope you still monitor this mailing list. Please see my previous (bounced) emails below. All: I would like to participate in ardour localization, but I can not access the cvs repository due to some security limitations on our network. I would really appreciate to get a tarball somewhere. Maybe even with daily snapshots - that's almost like CVS read access. Thanks. -M -------- Original Message -------- Subject: [Fwd: Re: [linux-audio-user] ardour localization] Date: Fri, 31 Jan 2003 09:17:24 +0100 From: Martin Wolters <wol(a)codingtechnologies.com> To: Alexandre Prokoudine <avp(a)altlinux.ru> Hi Alexandre, die letzte email die ich versucht habe Dir zu schicken (s.u.) ist leider gebounced. Ich habe noch eine Bitte: Ich wueder gerne mit ardour helfen und habe mittlerweile auch ALSA 0.9 und jack installiert.

[linux-audio-user] [ANN] swh-plugins 0.3.4

by Steve Harris

http://plugin.org.uk/releases/0.3.4/ Hods of changes, including: * Bugfixes to GSM sim (Pascal Haakmat) * Bugfixes to FM osc (Pascal Haakmat) * Bugfixes to audio divider (Nathaniel Virgo) * Added another compressor, SC4, stereo, no sidechain * Added lookahead brickwall limiter * Added L/C/R delay (requested by Marek Peteraj) * Added Giant flanger (kind of requested by Patrick Shirkey) * Added DJ Flanger (actually requested by Patrick Shirkey) * Should now compile on FreeBSD * Fixed syntax error in RDF metadata, works with Bob H's jack-rack now I've updated the AUTHORS list, but I've undoubtedly forogtten people, so if youre not in there and should be give me a shout. SC4 is more-or-less like SC3, but has no sidechain and a subtly different algorithm. The sidechain was confusing hosts. The limiter has up to two seconds of lookahead, so can be very gentle. The L/C/R delay might be a bit familiar to Korg Trinity users ;) I haven't used it much bet it seems pretty cool. The giant flanger was a mistake, but I left it in anyway. The DJ flanger hjas controls for LFO period (instead of frequency as you would have in a synth) and you can resync the LFO by clicking a toggled control*. - Steve * This reminds me, there would be a use for a MOMENTARY hint (implying or requiring TOGGLED) in LADSPA, that meant that a control port should only be held high while the UI control was held down, otherise you have to double click reset controls, which is confusing.

[linux-audio-user] enhanced CD--update

by Anthony Perez-Miller

Hello all, Thank you for all the advice on how to access the tracks on the Peter Gabriel disc. As it turns out...I missed the obvious. Unlike usual music CDs, this one has to be mounted (as Alexandre Prokoudine pointed out). Once mounted, the audio tracks are visible, after all. Grip using cdparanoia turned them to ogg files without a complaint. Can't guarantee that it will be that easy for all encoded CDs, unfortunately. But at least I'll be looking at the fine print before purchase from now on. thanks again, --Anthony

[linux-audio-user] [ANN] JACK Rack 1.2.0

by Bob Ham

Hi all, No response to the beta testing request, so I'll have to subject you all to a likely hairy release :) Arbitrary channels are the biggest thing. Also, previous save files will no longer work as the save files use XML now. Sorry, but it's better to change it now instead of later as changing the xml format will create less of a disturbance. * can now have arbitrary channel numbers. you can use any plugin that has equal numbers of input and output channels where they divide exactly into the number of rack channels. eg, you could have a 4 channel rack with 2 stereo plugins in one slot and 4 mono plugins in another. obviously, you can also have mono racks now. use the -c command line option to specify the number of channels on startup. * now, when you lock a group of controls, only one widget will be shown. click on a control while holding down the CTRL key to make it the one that remains visible. * the PID is now used in the jack client name by default. you can change it to the previous behaviour (of using just "jack_rack") with the -n option. * save files now use an XML format (which is incompatible with the previous format, sorry) * port connecting works now, -i to connect inputs, -o to connect outputs * quite a bit of code factoring and cleanups and stuff http://pkl.net/~node/jack-rack.html Bob -- If you're happy and you know it, bomb iraq

[linux-audio-user] Multiple instance of Jack apps...

by Comix

Hi, is there a way of running two instances of the same Jack app? I know there's alsaplayer that append a number at the end of this jack port name, but is this a solution? Today I was playing with some jack apps and jack-rack, but I want to run 2 or more instances of jack-rack and connect their ports with qjackconnect...but, jack does'nt allow to run 2 instances with the same port name.. Any suggestion? :) P.S. Excuse me for this bad english...I'm italian.. ;) -- Alessandro <Comix> Cominu http://hydrogen.sf.net e-mail: comix(a)despammed.com Icq: 116354077 Linux User # 203765 [...Codito Ergo Sum...]

Re: [linux-audio-user] ALSAModularSynth

by manuel.op.de.coul＠eon-benelux.com

Thanks Dave. I should mention that unzipping the scale archive must be done with the command unzip -a scales.zip This will create a subdirectory "scl" with the scales inside. Manuel

[linux-audio-user] ancient scores

by Alexandre Prokoudine

Greetings, Yesterday I received a query from a familiar of mine, who's working at The Russian State University for the Humanities. Recently he visited a concert of guys, who study at Moscow Conservatory, Department "World Musical Cultures", where ancient music of Japan, India and other countries was played. As he asked, how they managed to get scores, he was told, there are some that are "marked" (not a good term - it's just my bad English's fault) with ancient notes. Here is a screenshot: http://michael.rsuh.ru/japan.jpg So I pass his question: is entering or displaying of these notes supported by any of open source score editores? I know that here are some TiMidity guys who may know more about it. Thank you in advance! -- Alexandre Prokoudine ALT Linux Documentation Team JID: avp(a)altlinux.org
