Hello,
I am wanting to put together a dedicated DAW for the recording of
sermons. From that recording I will produce cassettes, cds, mp3 and
ogg/speek (as hardware support comes).
I am totally uneducated as to what is best for such.
Hardware:
I am currently looking at picking up used rackmount unit (4U) for this
machine.
How much processor is desired/required for this task?
PII, PIII, P4/Athlon.
Are dual systems (PII,PIII) desireable?
I will buy plenty of RAM and hard drive space.
Any preference in soundcards?
Anything else?
I do want good quality recording.
Software:
Need not be complicated or highly featured per se.
My editing needs currently are minimal.
Pick a starting point, pick an end point.
Create new file.
Ability to select beginning, middle and end points when creating cassettes.
I will be connecting this to a rackmounted cassette deck, a mixer, etc.
I currently use Debian (Sid) for my home machine.
If that makes any difference.
Thanks for help and suggestions.

ahead, please :-)

Hi all.
Just got Slackware 8.1 up and running with kernel 2.4.20 and ALSA 0.9rc6. I
have a TerraTec DMX 6Fire 24/96 card. The chipset it uses is an Envy24.
I am wondering what all the different mixer options are for. These are
taken from alsamixer:
* IEC958
* IEC958 1
* ADC -- I think this is a line input.
* ADC 1-5 -- I also think these are inputs.
* Analog Input select
* Breakbox LED
* DAC -- These are the outputs. I know these, I have 6 of them.
* Deemphasis -- I have 3 of these.
* Front digital input
* H/W -- I have 6 of these.
* IPGA Analog -- I have 6 of these.
* Multi -- I have 10 of these.
* Multi Capture -- I have 10 of these.
*Multi Track Internal Clock -- I think this has something to do with recording.
* Multi Track Peak -- I have 4 of these.
* Multi Track Rate Locking
* Multi Track Rate Reset
* Multi Track Volume Rate
* Optical Digital Input -- Digital connectors on the front panel I presume.
* Phone Analog Input -- Self explanetory.
Any help as to what these all are would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Luke.
Hello List:
My name is Josh, and I am a musician and linux user in Texas. After buying
Linux Music and Sound about 6 months ago, I am starting to get into using my
linux box for music applications. I've found most of the major resources on
the web for this sort of thing, but I find that I'm running into new ones
every day. Is there a FAQ for this list that answers many "newbie"
questions that I could ask?
My second question: I am wanting a MIDI utility that will help me deal with
changing patches on my synths (am I allowed to brag? Yamaha S80 and EX5...)
without having to manually do it. Is there such a utility, or should I
stick with sequencers? A sequencer seems a little full-featured for what I
am wanting to do, that is, simply send bank and program change messages to
my various synths.
Thanks list!
Josh Lawrence
Greets all,
alsa 0.9rc1
jack 0.34.0
sound blaster 128, ens1371
Er, as it sais in the subject, jack-rack 1.12 segfaults on startup.
I'm starting jack like this:
# jackd -R -d alsa -d sb128
Am i supposed to be giving jack-rack any specific options on start-up?
Thanks, Jordan.
Hello
I've been getting into soundfonts recently so i started looking for graphical editors. I have compiled swami 0.9 along with iiwusynth 0.2.2. iiwusynth is working great with my midisport and alsa etc. But I can't get swami to work...
I launch swami
swami rhodes.sf2
and it warns that it can't find the config files in ~/.swami/ . Then it just exits listing the available options. I tried creating blank config files hoping it would set them up for me but still the same result. I also tried -d and -c but no luck :(
Can anyone suggest how to get swami running?
cheers

ZynAddSubFX is a open-source software synthesizer for
Linux.
It is available at :
http://zynaddsubfx.sourceforge.net
or
http://sourceforge.net/projects/zynaddsubfx
Please send me instruments done by you with
zynaddsubfx.
news:
1.0.5 -The bug that crashed ZynAddSubFX if you
change some effect parameters, it is really removed (I
forgot to update the file before upload)
- Other bugfixes and code clean-ups
- Added a Global Filter to SubSynth
- Added keyresponse limits to Part
- Added presets to Effects
- The fade is smaller on high frequecy
content and larger on low frequecies; so you'll don't
hear starting clicks on basses and audible fadeins on
higher pitched sounds
- Added tunnings to Reverb: you can
choose Random of Freeverb. Freeverb is written by
Jezar at Dreampoint; I used the tunings from it.
