The heaping majority of soundcards out here afford the same or less control, so far as I know. Unless I'm missing something fundamental. I don't think I am. You're probably just used to life with that fancy card of yours. If you ever take a notion to do that "Rosegarden counter" I threw out, it might be interesting to collect statistics on who uses what. Based on what I see, I'd say 95% of our users have a generic AC97 soundcard, 4% have some kind of emu10kx and/or external MIDI gear, and 1% have a real soundcard like an Audiophile/Hamerfal. I might be off on that. Hrm. Hey, hell, you look at a thing a thousand times without seeing the forest for the trees sometimes. I do have two capture channels on this emu10k1, and I can control which does what presumably. I've just always had them locked together. Interesting. I'll have to see if I can con Dad into playing and recording some kind of duet thing with mountain dulcimer and pluggable guitar to see if I can come out with anything. Of course due to proximity issues the mic is going to record the pluggable guitar too, unless I play it with the speakers off. Hrm. I'll have to see about doing that playing you were suggesting about capturing various soft synths straight onto their own audio tracks too. I need to go paint that porch column I just rebuilt, and take care of various other neglected matters today, but I'll see if I can't come up with a workout for this sometime in the next few days anyway. I've figured out the how now, I think, just not the "WTF do I do with it." Although now that my book is two weeks away from publication and the right I have to update and carry forward the "free web preview" is somewhat nebulous an uncertain, I'm not quite sure what I'm going to do about documentation going forward from here. I keep thinking about what I'm going to put in the book while forgetting that the book has now been cut off, kiln dried and shrink wrapped for posterity. I want to keep offering documentation services, but I don't want to kill my sales either. Reconciling capitalism with volunteerism is difficult to reconcile, isn't it Fervent? Oh well, I'll figure something out. > > and getting MIDI LEDs that stay lit while audio LEDs are lit too. > > This is intentional -- I forgot to mention that you can also now record > MIDI and audio at the same time. Oops. That's rather fundamental. Ohhhhh. Well then, it sometimes breaks the other way. Turning off MIDI unnecessarily. I can't seem to break it at the moment without changing a track type. BTW, is multi-track MIDI in the works too? I think we have the underlying capability to do that, and would just need some mechanism for routing various inputs to particular tracks. Is that right? That would be pretty damn spiffy really. -- Michael McIntyre ---- Silvan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Linux fanatic, and certified Geek; registered Linux user #243621 http://www.geocities.com/Paris/Rue/5407/ http://rosegarden.sourceforge.net/tutorial/ ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: NEC IT Guy Games.
