Recently a few people have complained that there is no real information
on the audio devices available for Linux users.
The above link takes you to a site which seems to be a very good
stepping point for us to get the information out there.
Unsurprisingly there is very little info on that site for sound devices
even though they have provided the forum.

We want normal music!", I think that was more like acting than anything
I've ever done.

And with good reason ;-)
According to RME, the HDSP 9652 is "completely identical to the
Digiface, except the missing analog monitor output". RME claims that
existing HDSP PCI + Digiface drivers will work without modification
with the HDSP 9652.

Hi,
I was looking to set up another Linux box and was considering the RME
Digiface or Multiface as they both have an attractive feature set for my
needs, but then I didn't find them in the Alsa Sound Card Matrix.
Is anyone working on drivers for these and it just isn't quite ready? Or
is nothing happening?
Thanks,
Mark
Hello all. As I understand it, simply muting the channel (line in or mic)
in alsamixer should turn off monitoring of that channel. This is not
working for me. I have a YMF-740C soundcard (ymfpci).
I am trying to get rid of the 'clean' signal so that for instance I could
use pd as an effects processor.
Any suggestions/tips/pointers to docs?
Thanks
Hi, I have problems compiling today cvs of jack...
This is the error:
gcc -I.. -I.. -D_REENTRANT -D_POSIX_PTHREAD_SEMANTICS -Wall -g -g -O2 -o

Can I build jack without example clients?
I have not found a configure option for this...
Thank you in advance
please let me know if this is off-topic for this list...
i've been using chord to typeset music, and it works well for some types
of music, like popular tunes i'm familiar with.
it's a great utility and generates really nice output, but i'm starting
to need something a little different for things like jazz standards.
i'd like to be able to typeset something like:
| Dm7 G7 | Dm7 G7 | Em7 A7 | Em7 A7 |
| | | | |
| % % % % | % % % % | % % % % | % % % % |
| | | | |
instead of what chord (or guitartex) does:
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7 Em7 A7 Em7 A7
Cigarette holder which wigs me, over her shoulder, she digs me
in other words, lyrics are nice, but i'd rather show measures and
perhaps syncopation. if i can do both, that would be fantastic. but
i'd rather have the concept of a measure rather than the concept of
"this chord is played with this lyric".
any recommendations about a linux tool that does what i want?

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.

Hello everyone!
Does anyone know, where I could find the newest linux csound rpms. I need
the noX11-binaries. For the moment it isn't vital, that I especially get the
linux unofficial version.
Thanks for any help!
Kindest regards
Julien

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.
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.
