[linux-audio-user] Sweep 0.5.7 -- now with Ogg Vorbis support

by Conrad Parker

Sweep 0.5.7 Development Release ------------------------------- Sweep is a sound wave editor, and it is now also generally useful as a flexible recording and playback tool. Inside lives a pesky little virtual stylus called Scrubby who enjoys mixing around in your files. This development release is available as a source tarball at: http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/sweep/sweep-0.5.7.tar.gz?download This version includes support for Ogg Vorbis import and export, including both variable and average bitrate encoding modes. There are many other user interface updates, including new input controls for sample rates and channels. There is a new Screenshot tour of Sweep, introducing effects filters, Ogg Vorbis encoding dialogs, and colour schemes: http://www.metadecks.org/software/sweep/screenshots/ Sweep is designed to be intuitive and to give you full control. It includes almost everything you would expect in a sound editor, and then some: * precise, vinyl like scrubbing * looped, reverse, and pitch-controlled playback * playback mixing of unlimited independent tracks * looped and reverse recording * internationalisation * multichannel and 32 bit floating point file support * LADSPA 1.1 effects support * multiple views, discontinuous selections * easy keybindings, mouse wheel zooming * unlimited undo/redo with fully revertible edit history * multithreaded background processing * shaded peak/mean waveform rendering, multiple colour schemes Sweep is Free Software, available under the GNU General Public License. More information is available at: http://www.metadecks.org/software/sweep/ Thanks to Pixar Animation Studios and CSIRO Australia for supporting the development of this project. enjoy :) Conrad.

Re: [linux-audio-user] Advice for new users?

I use only softsynths on this machine (a laptop with no hardware MIDI support) and they work very well. Rosegarden-4 is probably the nearest thing you'll find to Cubase on Linux now. I say that with some confidence even though it's not at all close to Cubase in professionalism or scope, just because there are so few other music applications on Linux that are designed to be quite so general-purpose and immediately effective. It's not entirely stable or feature-complete yet and we take a somewhat good-enough attitude to latency and performance issues in a way that's entirely suitable for a home musician but not for studio-quality use. But it's entirely possible already to make real music with it, and we'd love more constructive feedback from people who are trying to do that. Rosegarden-4 does quality MIDI sequencing and editing, multi-track audio via JACK with LADSPA plugins (this stuff is fairly new in RG, could use some knowledgeable testers), and good score editing. We've been demoing it at the London Linux Expo yesterday and today and despite the odd crash we've had (I think) pretty productive results. And of course made a lot of noise, most of it rather unattractive. Hey ho. Chris

[linux-audio-user] Fluid question

by Dave Phillips

Greetings: I've downloaded the Fluid soundfont but am unsure how to unarchive it. The file in question is named "FluidR3 GM.sfArk" which implies some sort of archived filetype I don't know about. Can someone tell me what utility I'll need to unarc it ? TIA !

[linux-audio-user] Intel 82801BA Sound

by bwc2001＠columbia.edu

Hi, I have an HP 7965 desktop dual-booting between XP and RH Linux 8.0. The standard installation did not get the sound card working, and every time I tried to use XMMS, an error message would pop up saying that the sound card could not be contacted. I installed the ALSA driver, library, and utilities as per the instructions at http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/doc-php/template.php3?company=Analog%2… and then used insmod to load them, also as per the instructions at that page. Now xmms and the system seem to recognize the module and the sound card-I don't get any error messages-but I don't get any sound. I used alsamixer to unmute the system, but I still get nothing. It works fine in XP, so I don't know what the problem would be. Here is the relevant output from vi /proc/ioports: 0cf8-0cff : PCI conf1 a400-a43f : Intel Corp. 82801BA/BAM AC'97 Audio a400-a43f : Intel 82801BA-ICH2 - Controller a800-a8ff : Intel Corp. 82801BA/BAM AC'97 Audio a800-a8ff : Intel 82801BA-ICH2 - AC'97 b000-b01f : Intel Corp. 82801BA/BAM USB (Hub #2) b000-b01f : usb-uhci b400-b41f : Intel Corp. 82801BA/BAM USB (Hub #1) b400-b41f : usb-uhci b800-b80f : Intel Corp. 82801BA IDE U100 b800-b807 : ide0 b808-b80f : ide1 c000-dfff : PCI Bus #02 d000-d0ff : Lucent Microelectronics LT WinModem d400-d407 : Lucent Microelectronics LT WinModem d800-d83f : Intel Corp. 82801BA/BAM/CA/CAM Ethernet Controller d800-d83f : e100 Thanks for any help you might have. -Brian

[linux-audio-user] New RME HDSP 9652

by Mark Knecht

Hi, I'm wondering if anyone has had the opportunity to look into the new RME HDSP 9652 card that has started shipping. http://www.rme-audio.de/english/hdsp/hdsp9652.htm Will this require new driver development, or is it by chance compatible with some other RME device that is already supported under Linux? Thanks, Mark

[linux-audio-user] [admin] RE: spam and viruses

by Joern Nettingsmeier

sorry for this spam, the filters are not yet what they used to be.. in any case, please DO NOT reply to spam, unless you want them to know your email is active, and of course do not reply to the list :-D regards, jörn btw: this new bugbear worm seems to be very clever in forging sender and mail bodies. don't be surprised if one of your list postings surfaces elsewhere with a slighly bogus sender and a virus attached. and don't raise hell on the lists :) for now, i have bugbear posts trapped in the filters, but that thing seems to be evolving like linux audio, so please forgive if some make it through to the lists.

[linux-audio-user] ShakeTracker+ASecVew->bristol = ?

by nikodimka

I've tried to control the Bristol synth by ShakeTracker+ASeqView (running as it is explained in "HOWTO Use MIDI Sequencers With Softsynths") I run bristol with "-midi seq" option. It works in principle... But I got the following strange behavior: the tones the Bristol produces are one note late of what must be done. But the timing is correct. I mean if I write in Saketracker: === E# C# .. F# E# == In Bristol it is played like: == .. E# .. C# F# == So the questions are: Who's fault this is? Bristol's, aseqview's, shaketracker's, alsa-seq's or mine :) ? How can I debug this by myself? I mean how can I trace the midi data sent? thanks, nikodimka __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

Is it mentioned in ladspa.h? Maybe buggy > plugins should set a flag, "crashable", similar to the "realtime" flag? ;) Okay, this was really weird. This message was resent to the list and who knows who else from "Taybin Rutkin <trutkin(a)wsws.org>". Um, I've never had that email address. The website is for the World Socialist Web Site. So I have no idea what's going on, but it's making me paranoid. It'd also be nice if it didn't repost lame jokes of mine. Taybin
