I have some experience in c++ code but has never seen python, nor used any of its tools... and i sure would need the numerical extension you mentioned. Cheers Fabio,

[linux-audio-user] VST plugins and linux

by Kevin Bowen

Hello all, I'm new to the list, and to linux, and I'm looking for where I can find info on the current status of windows VST plugins/instruments on (i386) linux. After lots of googling, I've found lots of references to a couple vst->LADSPA wrappers (i think one is called vstserver?), however I've been unable to locate homepages of these projects. Does anyone know where I can find downloadable source or binaries for any of these projects and (hopefully) directions on their compilation/installtion/use? Is there anything thats actually usable yet, or are these just proof of concept type things? Any and all info on this topic is appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help. -- Kevin Bowen <kbowen(a)ucsd.edu>

The audio part of the SC-D70 doesn't conform to the USB Audio specification, so the driver doesn't find it. (The MIDI part doesn't conform either, but the driver has a workaround for that.) Please post the output of "lsusb -v" and the contents of /proc/bus/usb/devices. HTH Clemens

In fact i wanna make it as generic as i can. My main purpose is voice recognition, and my secondary target is generic signal processing, not necessarily coming from soundcards. So i should need my own customized program. Cheers, Fabio de Matos

[linux-audio-user] Thanks

by Levi Burton

I've been using Linux for quite some time now and finally got around to using it for audio and MIDI. I must say i'm very impressed with all the applications i've been using. Thanks to all (developers and users) for making Linux audio/music development a reality. Levi

[linux-audio-user] Edirol SC D70

by Emiliano Grilli

Hi all, I have an edirol SC D70 (Sound Canvas Digital) which works out-of-the-box with the usb-audio driver. I get 3 MIDI ports (2 MIDI ports of the SC and 1 external MIDI I/O). This device is also an audio interface, but I haven't found how to configure it (if it's possible). Maybe I have to add another snd-usb-audio driven card to modules.conf? I tried to write to alsa-devel, but since I'm not subscribed to that list, the message doesn't show in the archives... so I suspect that it has never been received. Also the page at alsa.opensrc.org doesn't seem to have information on this for the SC D70 Can you help me? TIA PS: I'll have to second Levi and Brian and thank you all for making linux+audio such an exiting combo !!! PPS: sorry for my crappy english... -- .---------------------. | Emiliano Grilli | | emillo(a)libero.it | | Linux user #209089 | '---------------------'

[linux-audio-user] SB Audigy - recommendable?

by Burkhard Woelfel

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi all, I am considering to buy a soundcard for around 100$ and there is an offer for a SB Audigy. Any recommendations? I read that the driver on Sourceforge is still experimental. Did anyone experience problems using that driver? What should I know or consider?

This MIDI interface works fine under Windows, so whatever causes the problem is purely a Alsa MIDI issue. If we can figure it out, then we can fix it. I agree that it sounds like this sort of one note per timer tick. When the interface is supposed to send a chord, it sends what sounds like an arpegiated chord. It's all smeared out. Is there some example code I could look at to understand implementing a FIFO? However, if there is a FIFO Full indication, doesn't we need to know _how_ it's indicated? I would assume it's different for all cards? (Bus possibly similar for cards from the same manufacturer? Also, this is the HDSP 9652, which is a single PCI card. Is this problem showing up for the DigiFace/MultiFace type cards? Thanks, Mark

usb-audio feedback was Re: [linux-audio-user] poor audio quality in tX?

by iriXx

hi, i'm just checking the archives re: patrick's problem with audio quality under X, as my quattro is configured ok now but making only loud feedback noise when i go to play anything.... my mouse section in XF86Config-4 is as follows: Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Mouse1" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "PS/2" Option "Device" "/dev/psaux" Option "Emulate3Buttons" Option "Emulate3Timeout" "50" EndSection i'm using the trackpoint on my thinkpad 600E - should i change any of this? i think i'm using gdm as well - at least, i have a file called /etc/gdm-root.conf - no /etc/gdm.conf tho.... please help.... i'm really stumped for what might be causing all the feedback noise as its never happened before in mdk 8.2.... everything was fine there.... im using supplied alsa rpms from mandrake 9.0 (there was a long discussion on the pros and cons of this before, have gone with the rpms, against my preference but because its hard to extract them once installed).... thanx m~ > I have seen crazy mouse syndrome in X when switching from a wheel mouse > to a non-wheel mouse (and maybe the other way around too).
