Arnold, that's what i figured. If I can 'fool' X config into thinking the second qwerty is some sort of midi, or 'non-default qwerty' controller, then i'm wondering if it's possible to use it in a wider sense for script starts,etc.. I will admit i know next to nothing about this, hence the question. Mysth-R, Thanks for the heads up. I'll have a peek at Pure data. Alex.

The audio quality of the Two Minute Mayhem fragment definitely suffered from the conversions. Thanks for making the mix, I enjoyed it very much. Sounds like you had some fun doing it. :) Best, dp

Hi, I have adjusted the sample rate for a couple of tracks and added a couple more that I missed from the original release. The mix is now 100 minutes long. Still no Hiphop tracks and no classical pieces either. http://djcj.org/audio/lam/lam-2008.ogg 112,379MB - ogg - If people can have a listen and let me know if the levels are right that would be helpful. It sounds fine on my headphones but may be too quiet at the start on a speaker system. - I have compressed it with q5 this time. That makes the file size about 40MB bigger. The previous version was q3 which is the default for oggenc. Please let me know if that improves the audio quality.

I know that it's possible with vorbis, I just don't know how. And another thing, usually the recommended ogg encoder is the aoTuV-version which one can get here as .deb for example: http://rarewares.org/ogg-oggenc.php Afaik the aoTuV-changes are going to be merged into mainline oggenc, I don't know if this has already happened. Benefits should be: faster, same or better quality vs. filesize Just suggestions. I'll try to dig up some informaion on chaptered Vorbis or however it is called. It may be the thing I found at the end of the oggenc manpage, but I'm not sure. Just ideas. Oh, and the compilation is a very nice idea. Best regards, Philipp

Justin, gentlemen, thanks for the help. It's much appreciated. I have much to work with now, and a renewed optimism. Alex. On Sat, Nov 15, 2008 at 2:46 PM, Justin Smith <noisesmith(a)gmail.com> wrote:

It was interesting, but way too hard to visualize remember and keep track of that many interfaces at once, I have upgraded to a behringer bcf2000 with the automated faders - less interesting maybe, but much more usable. I may eventually get the code into a semi usable state for public distribution, it sent osc messages (and I think I even started on some keyboard parsing code).
