It seems that I'm the only guy who is trying to use an AWE64 without OSS emulation.
I've tried "asfxload" with my AWE64 and it doesn't work. Probably this is due to my ignorance since I've only a basic understanding of PCM playback and none about MIDI (with ALSA I mean). The question is the following : I load all the ALSA modules, both for the sequencer and PCM. In fact the ouput of "pmidi -l" gives: ----------------- Port Client name Port name 64:0 Rawmidi 0 - MPU-401 (UART) 0-0 MPU-401 (UART) 0-0 65:0 Emu8000 WaveTable Emu8000 Port 0 65:1 Emu8000 WaveTable Emu8000 Port 1 65:2 Emu8000 WaveTable Emu8000 Port 2 65:3 Emu8000 WaveTable Emu8000 Port 3 66:0 OPL3 FM synth OPL3 FM Port ----------------- Then, when I try to load the soundfont with ./asfxload synthgm.sbk I get : No Emux synth hwdep device is found. I've verified with the source code that the problem is at the very beginning when the program call snd_hwdep_open(&hwdep, name, 0) I've tried with -D "hw:0,2" but the result is the same. I've also verified that a basic "sequencer program" works but just without playing any sound, of course. I didn't like to bother the devel ML with such kind of problems but there is no documentation about "sound font loading without OSS emulation". -- Francesco Abbate ------------------------------------------------------- The SF.Net email is sponsored by EclipseCon 2004 Premiere Conference on Open Tools Development and Integration See the breadth of Eclipse activity.
