greetings all, i recently put together a new debian box (unstable with 2.4.19+ll), installed jack from cvs, installed freqtweak 0.4.5, ssm from cvs, pd from cvs, etc. and tried to get them to play together and have had no success. i start jack as follows: wazowski:/home/jcw# jackd -d alsa -d hw jackd 0.40.1 Copyright 2001-2002 Paul Davis and others. jackd comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it under certain conditions; see the file COPYING for details loading driver .. creating alsa driver ... hw|1024|2|48000|swmon starting engine everything seems to be ok. then i launch freqtweak and get the following: wazowski:/home/jcw# freqtweak -i none,none -n ft JACK error: cannot connect input port: none -> _pcm:playback_18 JACK error: cannot connect output port: ft:in_1 -> alsa_pcm:playback_1 JACK error: cannot connect input port: none -> % JACK error: cannot connect output port: -> alsa_pcm:playback_2 i have no idea what to make of this. once freqtweak is running, i can't get alsa_pcm:playback_1, etc. as options. also, ssm just segfaults if i try to connect it to jack at all. pure data just kills all audio. i am running alsa rc5 with an rme9652 and an emu10k1. all of my apps work perfectly without jack. does anyone have a clue or suggestion? i hope that i have just done something silly and someone will be able to point out the error in my ways. thank you for your time. j.c.w. -- WITH GORILLA GONE, WILL THERE BE HOPE FOR MAN? - ishmael

[linux-audio-user] Gentoo users

by Jason Thompson

Nice to hear that others have put together viable systems on Gentoo. Just one note of clarification--I've managed to compile ardour, but I can't start it up because it's looking for the ardour_ui.rc file in the default place (/usr/local/music/src/ardour) which isn't created with the ebuild. In fact, ardour_ui.rc doesn't seem to exist anywhere on my system. Do you have to build it yourself. If so how? I can't find any documentation. I'm also running the Vanilla kernal. Glad to hear that I'm not the only one who had difficulties with the gentoo kernel. It would be great to put together some music/sound ebuilds for gentoo. Although I'm an intermediate Linux user, I'm not much of a programmer so I'd be happy to volunteer my writing abilities for documentation.

[linux-audio-user] Migration from OSS Pro to ALSA

by Robert Brown

Hi, I am building a new box for audio (Gentoo Linux) and have decided to use ALSA instead of OSS pro which I have always used. Having never used ALSA I was woundering if anyone can offer tips or highlight the main differences. My main soundcard is a M-Audio Delta Dio 2496 (ice1712) and my secondary card is the onboard CMedia 8738. Since Gentoo Linux uses devfs, one concern I have is how to know what device names the input/outputs will have. I have read through a some docs on ALSA and also the ALSA guide on Gentoo.org and they do not appear to address this issue as they are geared for consumer cards it seems. I use the M-Audio often to make DAT > PC (via SPFIF) transfers. With OSS Pro I can just "cat /dev/soundstat" to retrive info about what each device name in /dev actually is. Also, if I understand right, ALSA uses /dev/audio* as well as /dev/dsp* ? I am a bit confused about the envy24control setup as well as how to "unlock" the sample rate for the pro card. I would greatly appreciate any comments or suggestions on making the switch or anything that may be helpful. -- Robert Brown

[linux-audio-user] linux audio on Gentoo

by Jason Thompson

There was a recent discussion here about people using Debian. Frustrated with RedHat, I almost went with Debian, but Gentoo caught my eye. So far I'm really happy with it, though I'm having some difficulties getting Ardour set up. The great thing about Gentoo is that you compile and optimize the entire distro on your computer. The performance boost between Redhat 8.0 (my old distro) and Gentoo is easily noticeable. Plus their optimized kernel includes the low-latency patches. Are there any other Gentoo users out there? If so, I'd be interested in setting up a Gentoo-specific audio listserv to avoid flooding this list with distro-specific issues. Anyone else interested? (Of course I'll remain a loyal linux-audio-user subscriber!)

[linux-audio-user] compiling tao

by Torsten Anders

Hi, tao (physical modeling synth, see http://web.ukonline.co.uk/taosynth/) is still an unique program. Unfortunately it does not compile out of the box anymore.Probably compilers nowadays are a bit more rigorous in handling small syntax errors. Appended are the very little changes I needed to put in the code before I succeded compiling. Although these changes are really tiny, for unexperienced yacc etc. programmers (like me ;-) it may take ages the locate them.

[linux-audio-user] Animation from microphone

by Benjamin Forgeau

Hi, I'm looking for an animation program that could use the sound from a microphone to display some flashy animation over XWindows. It's for my office, where we have 3 computers and nobody here for this week. I would like to use the monitors as Disco Lights.. For we have a WAN, a client/server architecture would be perfect. Heard of something like this?? thanks ben

[linux-audio-user] FWD: Re: [linux-audio-dev] Please test my MidiSport firmware loader

by Patrick Shirkey

This was just sent to LAD. I would test it but I don't have any midi instruments these days. It installs very easily once you have the correct files. ---- Hi, I've created a package which extracts the firmware for MidiSport devices from the Windows driver files and installs the hotplug script to download the firmware. You can get it at <http://www.informatik.uni-halle.de/~ladischc/midisport_linux_firmware.html>. There are some differences to Lars Doelle's GPL firmware: - it supports MidiSport 4x4/8x8/Keystation/Oxygen - no configuration file editing, just 'make install' - it requires ALSA because the Midiman firmware doesn't conform to the USB MIDI specification I don't have a MidiSport device, so this is completely untested.
