[linux-audio-user] Midiman Portman 2x4 drivers?

by Christian Schoenebeck

Hi! Are there any drivers, no matter if OSS or ALSA for the Portman 2x4? The only thing I found on the web was that somebody posted to alsa-dev, that he almost has finished writing a driver for it. That was a year ago. But on the alsa matrix the device is marked grey and unfortunately the author's email address protected. Thanks in advance Christian

[linux-audio-user] Recommendations for 24/96 digital I/O?

by Roger Williams

I'm looking for recommendations for reliable interface components for getting 8-channel AES/EBU input into Ardour for HDR. (I'll be using external A/D converters.) -- Roger Williams <raw(a)qux.com> Qux Tool & Die, Middleborough, Massachusetts // Omne tulit punctum qui misquit utile dulci //

I could set up a wiki with almost no effort. Would that do the trick? I started a wiki to replace the ancient Audio Quality HOWTO a long time ago, but I wasn't really happy with the wiki way of doing things so i abandoned it, thinking "I'll make this better later"... but, well, you know how later goes. :-\ you can browse and search it (but not add stuff) at: http://www.slinkp.com/LiLAQ/FrontPage > I'm imagining some sort of web database of system hardware and > software configurations with some indication of associated latency, > reliability, and noise levels.

If a wiki would not do, let's figure out the requirements and i could maybe throw something else together. -- Paul Winkler http://www.slinkp.com "Welcome to Muppet Labs, where the future is made - today!"

I am in the process of adding a rating system to the alsa soundcard matrix which could serve as the place to display it. I have the basic page ready now (learnt how to do php classes properly last night too :). I need access to the mysql server on the alsa site before I will start working on the code for the system. I appreciate if people would give me some ideas on what they would like to see represented.

[linux-audio-user] Burning DVD-A with own 24/96 content

by Martin Wolters

I couldn't find any information on the web about burning DVD-A (DVD-Audio) discs. Does somebody know if that is possible? What programs and hardware are required? -M PS.: I am not thinking about copying commercial DVD's but making my own 24/96 recordings and play them in my living room - if that makes any difference.

[linux-audio-user] Re: [Jackit-devel] looking for a sound card

by Patrick Shirkey

Moved to LAU please continue this thread there. On 11/7/2002 - 03:58:38, Joshua N Pritikin said: > > i wish "The ALSA Soundcard Matrix" was more specific. Both the > CMI8738 (not working) and the Audiophile appear to have the same > level of alsa support. :-( > Saying this is one thing but actioning it is a different matter. We have a bugs section for the alsadocs and it is becoming obvious that it should be more prominently represented. I have started looking into it this past week but have no solid game plan. However, It still requires user contributions to make it work. Until now this has been very low on my priorities list along with most other people round here I think. But it seems that we have mostly covered everything else and it is becoming the next majorly requested thing. The only other way I can think of having more information about the level of support for cards instantly accesible is for someone to start doing a Linux audio hardware benchmarks site. Currently the information is covered in many places. alsa-devel alsa-users LAU LAD jackit-devel ardour-users to name a few. If you have time to read all these sites and a couple of years up your sleeve to get aquainted with the info then you will be fine. --

[linux-audio-user] building the dream Linux music box

by Kristofer Bergstrom

Hello everyone. I'm hoping to invest in a Linux-based (debian) system to do high-quality recording of live sources (mics, turntable mixer out, etc) and playback of multichannel (4 channel, maybe more someday) computer music. I have made music with CLM but am excited to try using Csound, as well as Ecasound and Ardour for recording and editing. I've been looking around and asking questions to vendors and have heard the following suggestion for hardware: a Hammerfall soundcard and an external ADI-8AE AD/DA converter. I wanted to see if anyone had any thoughts on such a setup. As far as I can tell, the ALSA drivers support this, although one vendor said that there are only drivers for the older Hammerfall card. Any thoughts on these things? Thank you very much in advance! Kris Bergstrom ____________________________________________________________________

[linux-audio-user] vsound considerations ...

by Benno Senoner

Hi, here is a mirror for vsound: http://www.xenoclast.org/vsound/ Anyway I don't think that an app that reroutes audio to disk can be regarded as illegal. If you think that way even a stereo patch cable must be outlawed since it allows you to make analogue copies of copyrighted works. <SARCASM ON> BTW: since JACK can route audio too, I expect it will soon be illegal too and jack's developers extradited to Australia and tried before and australian court. :-) <SARCASM OFF> cheers, Benno -- http://linuxsampler.sourceforge.net Building a professional grade software sampler for Linux. Please help us designing and developing it.

[linux-audio-user] Vsound is no more

by Erik de Castro Lopo

Hi all, It is with regret that I have to inform you that I will not longer be maintaining Vsound. >From the web page ( http://www.zip.com.au/~erikd/vsound/ ) October 27th, 2002 Although I have maintained vsound for nearly three years, I can no longer do so, nor can I continue to make it available from this web site. I live in Australia which has a law (Digital Agenda Bill 2000) which is similar to the DCMA in the US in that it makes the distribution of a devices for circumventing copyright protection illegal. I have neither the time, money or inclination to make myself a possible target for such legal action by companies with endless legal and financial resources. However, vsound is probaly available from other web sites. If you want a copy, you should search the web. Do not email me as I cannot and will not provide you with a copy. I will however continue working on other Linux audio software such as libsndfile and Secret Rabbit Code.

[linux-audio-user] new Debian user

by Laura Conrad

I just fixed my Mandrake RPM problems by installing Debian (woody). Right now, I don't have any sound apps working. What's the best way to go about it? I have an SB-Live soundcard, and need to be able to play MIDI files, and record sound. (Usually via timidity and ecasound, although I've used other apps as well.) Is compiling Alsa CVS the right thing to do, or is there something easy to do with apt-get that would get me going until I had something I really needed the Alsa CVS for? -- Laura (mailto:lconrad@laymusic.org , http://www.laymusic.org/ ) (617) 661-8097 fax: (801) 365-6574 233 Broadway, Cambridge, MA 02139
