[linux-audio-user] multiple unsynced cards

by Patrick Shirkey

I just managed to get the code from Jeorn working on my crappy cards here. (it also allows me to use a crappy card and my quattro together or I guess even all three for eight channels i/o ;) So that makes at least two people who have done this.

[linux-audio-user] getting started with MIDI

by Christian Schoenebeck

Hi everybody! Can somebody help me with my MIDI setup? I fiddled a little bit with it but couldn't get it work. I'm using a Terratec EWS64 XL, I've installed it's driver (sam9407), so the audio section works. But what do I have to do for being able to use it's MIDI ports? At the moment I'm using KDE 2.2 and maybe want to use Muse or something like that, because it's very similar to Cubase. Do I have to add a raw device to artsd or directly to Muse? Sorry for this stupid question, but I haven't found a HOWTO about that and I already tried something with Muse but it terminated after the first MIDI Event occured. Thanks for any help! Christian Schoenebeck P.S. these are my available sequencer devices: crw-rw---- 1 root audio 14, 1 15. Apr 2001 /dev/oss_sequencer crw-rw---- 1 root audio 145, 1 6.

[linux-audio-user] JACK support for maudio quattro.

I have just been able to get crystal clear sound through this card using the latest patch to the usb-audio driver in ALSA cvs and jack. ooooooh yeaaaah! -- Patrick Shirkey - Boost Hardware Ltd.

[linux-audio-user] Jazz++ on RedHat 7.2 anyone ?

by Stephen Burgess

Hi all, I am desperately trying to get the Jazz++ sequencer to run on Linux 7.2 with a softsynth and ALSA 0.9.0. I manage to use iiwusynth with pmidi or vkey in the following way : $ iiwusynth -m alsa_seq sf/sYnerGi-8Mb.sf2 $ vkeybd --addr 128:0 But when I launch jazz, I get the following error messages : ioctl: Inappropriate ioctl for device ioctl: Inappropriate ioctl for device subscribe: Inappropriate ioctl for device ioctl: Inappropriate ioctl for device unsubscribe: Inappropriate ioctl for device I never got any sound out of the pianoroll, I never got any sound when loading a midi file and pressing play. I checked how the interface works by downloading the win32 version. I tried both the rpm and the binary versions (ver 4.1.3) as I couldn't manage to compile version 4.1.8. I am using the default jazz.cfg file which is set for ALSA. What am I doing wrong ? Is Jazz++ not meant to use alsa_sequencer ? -- Operant conditionning : A process in which responses are learned on the basis of their rewarding or punishing consequences.

[linux-audio-user] monophonic audio -> MIDI

by Will Benton

Hey all, Does anyone know of a good program that converts monophonic audio to MIDI data? (If such a program exists for ALSA, so much the better!) thanks, wb -- Will Benton | "Die richtige Methode der Philosophie wäre eigentlich willb(a)acm.org | die: Nichts zu sagen, als was sich sagen läßt...."

[linux-audio-user] vxpocket + linux - custers last stand

by matthew yee-king

Hello/ Bonjour I am a VXpocket2 owner. I use a powerbook g4. I have now completely transferred to a GNU/ Linux OS. This means the card is now useless. I am writing to find out if you have any new plans to support GNU/Linux? I notice that you have a macosx driver now - maybe this *nix experience could be transferred in some way to the development of a GNU/ Linux driver? Do you find it sad to be one of the few red marks on this page? http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/ If there is no linux driver, i hope the second hand price of your cards is as high as the new price.... best matthew yee-king (a disheartened customer)

[linux-audio-user] alambik

by Mark Constable

This may be of interest. They have commercial M$ packages to sell but the viewers seems to be free and they claim something about their system is "open source", which I presume is the scripting language... I've yet to locate any SDK or API info. http://light.alambik.com/ It MIGHT be a more open flash-like option. Maybe. This is the response I got when I asked if linux is supported. --------------------------------------------------------- The linux version of our viewer is under development. Stay tuned ! We hope to release it before end of the year 2002. The MacOs version will be released later. --markc

[linux-audio-user] Audio on Thinkpad A20m

by Sadeck Valli

Setting Sound card Crystal Sound Fusion 46xx on ThinkPad A20m for RedHat 6.2 Kernel 2.2.14-5.0 I received the ThinkPad with Win98 Installed. Did the following Followed the instructions given on page <http://www.zhlive.ch/zhl_contents_linux.html> Excellent instructions these. Also looked at HOWTO <http://www.alsa-project.org/~valentyn/Alsa-sound-mini-HOWTO-6.html> No sense chancing it without reading this first. Now quick read the following... These are only the problems I had. May not be the same for you. Copy "conf.modules" to "modules.conf" don't use "conf.modules" On next boot Linux will complain. Do as it says or ignore sound card will be installed. It seems RedHat 6.2 kernel 2.2.14-5.0 does not like conf.modules and uses modules.conf instead Card on my system still did not work because volumes on ALSA driver were muted. To unmute(activate) master volume "amixer set Master unmute" (you must have installed and compiled the utilties source package from the ALSA page. <http://www.alsa-project.org/> To unmute PCM (needed to play wave and most other files) "amixer set PCM unmute" The rest I guess you can figure Eg. Type # amixer set PCM unmute NOTE: The driver is snd-driver-cs461x Linux Kernel Release 2.2.14-5.0 Linux will give a very detail explanation of what to do about the modules.conf and conf .modules file when you boot up.

[linux-audio-user] anyone using squeak for RT synthesis?

by Will Benton

I looked at the squeak page today and was impressed. Is anyone using this for music programming? If so, are there any good examples/code libraries? How does it compare to, say, SuperCollider? (Or is it worth it to just wait for a SuperCollider Linux port?) thanks, wb -- Will Benton | "Die richtige Methode der Philosophie wäre eigentlich willb(a)acm.org | die: Nichts zu sagen, als was sich sagen läßt...."

[linux-audio-user] ADAT/PCR Interface - anyone have any experience with this?

by Jason MacDermott

I am getting closer to purchasing some hardware to integrate my home studio, and basically base it around, Linux. I have been looking at the ALSA drivers and need to determine what hardware to get so that I can do some mutli-track recording. Midiman's Delta 1010 looks good, but as I already have an ADAT, I was wondering if the ADAT/PCR card would do the trick to get info to/from the tape, so that I could work on it in the computer and then send it all back as 8 channels? Has anyone used this setup before, and can they recommend it or advise against it? Thanks, Jason
