- Drum "Velocity" Mixer
Is a mixer for correct in a easy way the differences of volumes for each drum
note in differents soundfonts.

Small attempt to do something like Band in a Box.
Still developing that part... maybe can be usefull and maybe someone can send

Just a reminder that I'm (trying) keeping up with Holborn and everyone else's
new releases for Mandrake. All updated packages are availale on all Mandrake
cooker mirrors (like ftp://mandrake.redbox.cz). If you're running cooker, you
can just install them. If you're running Mandrake 9.1, just rpm --rebuild the
source rpm.
As an off-topic aside, Mandrake 9.2 should include all the best audio and
video applications. Some exceptions include csound, rtsynth, and jmax because
of non-free licencing policies, but everything else is included.
I'd also like to thank Holborn for his cool new additions to the open-source
music community. I've used horgand quite a bit myself already.

I guess you already know, but csound has changed license recently, but that
was for the core parts only. I think the modules have their own licenses and
it might not have rippled through just yet.
But afaict it should be possible to bundle also in a while.
BTW, what are the policy of mandrake since rtsynth and jmax can't be bundled?
I don't know about jmax, but with rtsynth isn't the only draw back that there
is no source? Or is there some other license problem?

Another user for you Holborn! ;)

Looking forward to it - thanks for all your packaging efforts, Austin!
Does this mean Mandrake will be the first mainstream distro to package
Ardour and Audacity 1.2, I wonder?

Does ALTLinux have many users outside Russia? Please excuse my
ignorance, but I've never seen it in use around here.
May be not as many as we would like to, but Manli ships its hardware
(video accelerators, TV-tuners etc.) with our OEM-distribution in Canada and
elsewhere (I don't remebere exactly) and the last release was about
100000 copies.
If you see a laptop by iRu (on of russian laptop brandnames) marked as
"Linux inside" be sure it's ALT Linux inside :-) We also sell our regular
distributions in all/almost all ex-USSR countries.
We are a small company, but we support one of the largest package
repositories in the world, named Sisyphus, among Debian unstable, PLD and
Mandrake Cooker. If guys from SuSE are hanging around this mailing list,
they might like to confirm that they sometimes borrow our patches for
their RPMS :-)
As a matter of fact, "to be small is good" (C) somebody :-)
I hope that wasn't too much of advertisment.

Good for you! Is ALT based on Red Hat? Which languages do you support
other than Russian?

ALT Linux is based on ALT Linux :-)
We still have installer and drakxtools from Mandrake, but we are
dropping them currently by writing our own installer and configurator.
We use dpkg and APT for RPM for packages management.
We officially support Ukrainian and Belorussian, but both German and
French are known to work in our distributions.
If you mean on what languages we can communicate to our users, then the
most used is English (we have a mailing list for our English speaking
users), but we have people in our team who can speak e.g. German (like me)
and French (another guy).
Our outside-of-Rissia user base might grow after release of ALT Linux
Multimedia --- a project to be officially announced a bit later.
Great! Thank you for this link!

I have SuSE 8.1 and it includes Ardour (version listed as
"cvs20020816-21") and Audacity (1.1.0.cvs20020830-8)
Please excuse my ignorance. I still haven't figured out the cvs thing.
I'm not sure if it's relevent information.

There`s a tarball of ardour0.9beta on the ardour-website that builds
well on SuSE 8.2 if you have the following:
jack >=0.6.6 (install the devel-package also if you install rpm )
recent pkg_config (PKG_CONFIG_PATH must be set manually to find liblrdf
on my system)
and: dev-util/pkgconfig
=media-libs/alsa-lib-0.9.0_rc7
media-sound/jack-cvs
=dev-libs/glib-1.2*
=x11-libs/gtk+-1.2*
=media-libs/libsndfile-1.0.4
sys-libs/gdbm
=media-libs/ladspa-sdk-1.12
=media-libs/libsamplerate-0.0.14
=media-libs/liblrdf-0.3.1
=dev-libs/libxml2-2.5.7
=media-libs/libart_lgpl-2.3*"
most of these should be easy to find for SuSE 8.1 and of course as
easy-to-build tarballs.
dont forget to build ardour with:
# ./configure --enable-optimize
I got the beast up and running, and it is the first REALY-Top-Notch
Linux-Audioprog i ever saw :-) :-)
good luck

Ardour (CVS) was in Mandrake 9.1. Believe me. I remember the torture of
building and RPM for that. Beta 2 is now in our development version, and it's
SO much easier to maintain than the CVS code. :-)

Ardour (CVS) was in Mandrake 9.1.
Sure, I meant Ardour 1.0. Looking forward to using it the studio.
Until now, the problem has been that with limited time available for
recordings, I didn't want to have people sitting around waiting while
I tried to figure out how to get Ardour working properly.

Well, I just bought a M-Audio Quattro interface and some MIDI gear, and
Mandrake 9.2 will be released this fall, so my objectives are:
1. Get the damn Quattro working.
2. Get all the MIDI gear working.
3. Get Ardour 1.0 and whatever verison of audacity we ship working well.
4. Get jack-realtime/alsa/kernel-multimedia working properly.
5. Update the Mandrake Audio Workstation HowTo to reflect these changes.
Ardour Beta 2 is already out, so I assume 1.0 should be ready by the fall,
right? I'm hoping to have my first 100% linux produced song recorded by next
week. Thus far I've been working with four-track analogue gear, and ALL my
old tapes are fading, hence the Quattro to at least preserve the master
recordings.

Not recently. I tried it a few versions ago and really liked it, but I
couldn't get it to record. Like I couldn't tell it which track to record or
something... I can't remember exactly, but that was about 2 versions ago.
I've kept the cooker RPMs up to date, so I'll try it again.
