Hi everybody! I'm using Slackware 9.1 with Kernel 2.4.26 patched for
low-latency.
Everything is ok, only my usb-midi multiport Yamaha UX256 isn't working.
I've loaded the usb modules (I use also an usb joypad and a pendrive and
they work), I've loaded the usb-midi module and at boot time it
recognizes the UX256 and displays the following kernel messages:

------------------
But if I run Jack i can't see it...my UX256 isn't avaible in any apps.
I know it should work beacause I tried with Demudi (www.agnula.org)
and it works.
I've also recompiled alsa (1.0.4) but nothing to do...
Any suggestions? I've tried everything I was able to, i've been Googlin'
but no usefull info. If someone has...THANKS!

Jack is an audio server, AFAIK for now it knows nothing about MIDI (even if
qjackctl has a facility MIDI-tab under "setup"). I know that MIDI trough
jack is planned, but I guess it will use ALSA as driver.

Try the snd-usb-audio module, and put these lines into
/etc/hotplug/blacklist:
usb-midi
snd-usb-audio

I only have the usb-midi module, not the snd-usb-midi...I'll try to
download and compile it. I'm not using hotplug, by now I always loaded
everything manually by adding it in my /etc/rc.d/rc.modules file over
Slackware and everything (except the ux256) has worked smoothly. I'll
try it. Thanks and...ciao!

It's called snd-usb-audio, not snd-usb-midi - if you look at what the
demudi live cd loads, you will probably find it with lsmod.
It is part of ALSA driver package, so if you have configured ALSA without
the "--with-cards" switch (which means that all drivers should be
compiled), the module should be there.
Try "modprobe -r usb-midi && modprobe snd-usb-audio"

Ok, I've loaded the snd-usb-audio: now the ux256 works! Great!
But now...no audio at all !
Ok, I tried to load the snd-intel8x0 (it's my audiocard's module)
manually, it loads, kmix can see the card, but I ca hear no audio (I've
controlled levels), then I tried to run again alsaconf: it detects my
card but...no sound. Something isn't working, and if I try to run
alsamixer, I get no mixer but the following output: no mixer elems
found. I think now alsa is recognizing just the ux256.
Have you a solution?
If this keeps working my next Techno-Live-Set will be run on Linux :-)

The channels are muted by default, and if you first loaded the
snd-usb-audio module, this becomes your first (aka default) card.
Try "alsamixer -c1" and unmute the "pcm" and "master"
channels.
But if you set the audio card as first ALSA card and the usb midi card as
the second, it would probably be better...
With something like this in /etc/modules.conf :
alias snd-card-0 snd-intel8x0
alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0
alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss
alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss
alias snd-card-1 snd-usb-audio
alias sound-slot-1 snd-card-1

Hi,
I'm new to Linux, although I've been involved with music and computers
for many years, having worked professionally as a musician and sound
engineer, as well as having written some MIDI/audio apps for Mac and PC.
I'm currently starting PhD research in music technology at the Sonic
Arts Research Centre in Belfast.
I thought that now would be as good a time as any to venture into the
world of Linux audio/MIDI, and have just installed SUSE 9.0.
I'm interested in using Ardour for HD recording, as well as other
synthesis programs such as Csound, jMax and SuperCollider.
My first question is related to setting up my system for low-latency?
I've found Paul Winkler's "Low-Latency 2.4.x with ALSA HOWTO" and was
wondering whether this was the most up-to-date guide to creating a
low-latency system, especially with respect to SUSE 9.0.
My second question concerns audio hardware. Here at the SARC I have
access to a Digi 002r audio/MIDI interface which uses Firewire. I can't
find any information about this interface and was wondering if it was
possible to use it with Linux.
Cheers,

Sounds great.
<shameless plug>
Be sure to check out MusE too, we are getting ready for a new release, lots of
improvements. (http://lmuse.sourceforge.net)

Mmm, mostly I guess. I'm however not fluent in "SuSE" so I could not say for
sure. Asking here about specific issues is also a good idea :-).

Firewire interests me alot. Sadly it is not yet a reality in Linux.
mLan, the standard for audio over Firewire is high on many peoples wishlist
and I think there was supposed to be a meeting with Yamaha one of these days?
Though I don't know if the Digi002r is compatible with mLan, not all hardware
is...like always.

Possible... anything is. Likely/easy certainly not. M-audio for
low-end cheaper, RME for high end spensive.
