i dont quite know how to do this any more.. getting to wits end still going with usb audio stuff have tried with and without the devfs stuff in modules.conf have tried with alsa tarballs and without them have tried instructions as per kevin's site nothing seems to be working: xmms says this: [root@hamish miriam]# ** WARNING **: oss_open(): Failed to open audio device (/dev/dsp): No such device similiar results for alsaplayer please help! i'm at my wits end! ;-) cant explain why it would work 2 days ago and wont work now i've tried repeating everything i did then (which was just to make sure mandrake libalsa2-devel and libalsa-data rpms were installed and then clean out modules and install again from tarballs. it worked, i dont know how it worked but it did). the only thing i can think of is those weird warning messages i got when building alsa-driver, it was something about the records in /lib/modules/2.4.19-16mdk/kernel/sound/ saying that this was the same location i have used before does anyone know what this means? or how i should proceed? thanks m~ -- iriXx www.iriXx.org copyleft: creativity, technology and freedom? info(a)copyleftmedia.org.uk www.copyleftmedia.org.uk _ ( ) ascii ribbon against html email X / \ cat /dev/sda1 > /dev/dsp *** stopping make sense ***

[linux-audio-user] mpg123-streams and ecasound/lame-padding

by Christoph Rupp

Hi, i convert a live-stream with ecasound to MP3s; but mpg123 has a lot of problems with the stream. i have discovered that here and then there's an mp3 frame with Padding set to 1 and as soon as the first padding-frame appears mpg123 starts to get a hickup. The only lame-option i use is the following: ext-mp3-output-cmd = lame -b 64 -a -m m -x -S - %f (i need a mono-64kbit-stream) I have searched the lame man-page but haven't found any switch to disable the padding. any idea what i could do?

[linux-audio-user] ANNOUNCE: Rosegarden-4 0.8.5 released

by Chris Cannam

The Rosegarden team have the pleasure of announcing the latest release of their MIDI and audio sequencer and score editor for Linux. The source code is available now from the project homepage: http://www.all-day-breakfast.com/rosegarden The availability of binary packages depends on their various maintainers; please check the project homepage for more information. New features since the 0.8 release include: o Improved MIDI file I/O: better support for banks and merging in import, better support for delay, transpose etc in export o MIDI device Bank and Program editor, including import and export of Studio data o MIDI Panic Button for clearing down stuck notes o Added some keyboard controls to matrix o Added real-time segment delays o Progress display completely overhauled o ALSA clients can be added dynamically (you can change your soft synth configuration while Rosegarden is running) o MIDI events filter dialog for MIDI THRU and MIDI record o MIDI/ALSA recording bug fixed (stopping after so many recorded events) o Many bug fixes, tweaks and performance improvements Unfortunately we've had to drop KDE2 support from this release onwards as it was getting too difficult to maintain both KDE2 and KDE3 in the same development tree. We're hoping this won't affect too many users in the long term. Finally, we would like to thank the cachegrind/kcachegrind team for a truly useful development tool. Chris

[linux-audio-user] Ecamegapedal - please help!

by felipe

Hi everybody I play guitar and needed a good non-commercial FX processor to turn my PC into a little guitar studio to improve my knowledge of guitar FX and such. I "apt-got" ecamegapedal and ecasound (debian woody here), I then deinstalled them and downloaded and installed the latest source releases (ecamegapedal-0.3dev1 and ecasound-2.2.0-rc1)... but still I have a problem: Everything works fine except I can't use ecamegapedal as a realtime effects processor! It works totally amazing when I set <Input> to a wav file, but when I choose "arts" as input AND output it does just nothing. My guitar keeps producing the same clean sound no matter which effect I choose. My soundcard is an OPL3SA2 and it should be full-duplex, as I can hear using software like GNUITAR, ExEf, Stompbox2 ecc ecc. I just wanted to use the superior capabilities of ecasound. Oh and I also tried to test ecasound from the command line with something like: $: ecasound -i:arts -o:arts -a:felipe -c That works, although the signal I get is a bit delayed, maybe there's some argument I could pass to have it adjust the output... BTW the real important thing to me was to have a good and intuitive guitar-FX-oriented interface to ecasound, and I think ecamegapedal is the way to go. Please could you help me? I'm attaching some output I get when I start ecamegapedal or ecasound. Best Regards and Keep Up This Good Work! -felipe- PS: I also tried other ecasound related software, like tapiir and tkeca... but they look more like mixers and I just want a realtime effects processor ;-) -- Prendi GRATIS l'email universale che... risparmia: http://www.email.it/f Sponsor: A Natale regalati un computer e risparmia: 120 euro di sconto su DELL Dimension e Inspiron!

[linux-audio-user] Re: AD/DA Converters

by patrick reardon

Robert, i've got an AI-3 and am very happy with it. i use it with a hammerfall light. the AI-3 doesn't have a lot of bells and whistles, but i just need a basic converter with high aural quality. and, like you, i didn't want to go overboard on the $$$. if your needs are similar, i think you'd like the AI-3. patrick > I'm looking to purchase a brand spankin' new HDSP 9652 Hammerfall > and I need an external AD/DA to go along with it. I've looked at the AI3, which makes $$$ sense and i've looked at the ADI 8 Pro line, which makes features sense (huh?). Which converter would you all recommend? Is there anything good/bad i should know about the AI3/ADI 8 Pro DS? > > Thanks a lot in advance! > > -Robert C

[linux-audio-user] WARNING: padding up to secsize.

by Howard Sanner

My usual way of creating a CD is to record to the hard disk, edit in Broadcast 2000, "render list," and burn the resulting WAV files to a CD. Every time I do this, without exception, cdrecord prints out this message after each track. I notice that when burning WAV files people have sent to me that they've created under other operating systems (i.e., not just Windoze), cdrecord doesn't give that message. I'd like to understand what's going on, and if it has any ramifications I should be worried about. Thanks. Howard Sanner flagstad(a)mindspring.com

[linux-audio-user] iiwusynth and ALSA midi?

by Paul Winkler

hi, i've got alsa from cvs (/proc/asound/version says 0.9.0rc6) and iiwusynth from cvs (reported as 0.2.4 at startup). I also tried iiwusynth 0.2.2 from tarball, with the same result. What's happening: I've got a raw midi input device at /dev/snd/midiC1D0 (/dev/midi01). I've compiled iiwusynth OK (without readline) and it can run fine with alsa's oss midi emulation: $ iiwusynth -a alsa -m oss -M /dev/midi01 ... and it responds to my keyboard just great. Try to use ALSA and I get no joy: $ iiwusynth -a alsa -m alsa -M /dev/amidi1 ~/Unshared/Sounds/soundfonts/drums/arap.SF2 iiwusynth: warning: Couldn't set high priority scheduling for the audio output iiwusynth: warning: Failed to pin the sample data to RAM; swapping is possible. ALSA lib rawmidi.c:280:(snd_rawmidi_open_noupdate) Unknown RawMidi /dev/amidi1 It doesn't seem to matter what I use for the -M argument... any ideas? Is current iiwusynth broken wrt. current ALSA? -- Paul Winkler http://www.slinkp.com "Welcome to Muppet Labs, where the future is made - today!"

[linux-audio-user] freqtweak on debian

by Paul Winkler

Anybody know exactly which wxWindows packages are needed to compile freqtweak 0.4.5 on debian (testing / unstable)? I'm now testing freqtweak from cvs to see if i get the same errors... ./configure seems fine, and i got past the fftw requirement (needed sfftw-dev), but now I'm getting nasty compile errors in the wxwin stuff... like: $ make make all-recursive make[1]: Entering directory `/home/pw/Downloads/Apps/Audio/freqtweak-0.4.5' Making all in src make[2]: Entering directory `/home/pw/Downloads/Apps/Audio/freqtweak-0.4.5/src' c++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/lib/wx/include/base-2.2 -D_REENTRANT -DNEWWX -I/usr/local/include -g -Wall -O3 -fomit-frame-pointer -fstrength-reduce -funroll-loops -fmove-all-movables -ffast-math -mcpu=i686 -march=i686 -c FTapp.cpp In file included from /usr/include/wx/laywin.h:4, from FTmainwin.hpp:27, from FTapp.cpp:45: /usr/include/wx/generic/laywin.h:83: parse error before `&' /usr/include/wx/generic/laywin.h:84: syntax error before `(' /usr/include/wx/generic/laywin.h:86: semicolon missing after declaration of `wxQueryLayoutInfoEvent' (many following errors snipped) -- Paul Winkler http://www.slinkp.com "Welcome to Muppet Labs, where the future is made - today!"

I've started to ask questions on the gentoo-user alias about how best to deal with cvs ebuilds. Once there there are some answers i'll put together a webpage for the files. I considered going down the /opt path ;-) but it just isn't the gentoo way! j.
