Hello Emanuel! I see, that you've already got some answers, here's mine though. I have a 1.8GHz CPU, OK I run NO GUI at all, yet still. I play all my music live. I play sessions with LinuxSampler (big pianos and all), I also record them that way, so the harddisk recorder is running at the

2010-02-06 Thread Julien Claassen
Hello Dave! I think LinuxSampler itself has no option to automatically connect. At least I've never seen it in the protocol. this is a task for the frontends. So your plugin should have an option to ayutomatically connect LS. Did you see no LS at all: ps -ax | grep linuxsampler If not,

Emanuel! No DMA? That does seem bad! Direct Memory Access is VERY helpful and has been there for years - not to say decades. It's also supported by the Linux kernel since version 2.0.X something. If not enabled this can take up considereable amount of CPU time. So no wonder. Your system MUST

As to the GPU usage: I believe there were some discussions about it, a few years back. I think it will be a matter of a kernel driver or small hack or additional module, which you might download somewhere. Sounds more reasonable and it triggers something in my memory. Kindly yours

[LAD] Convolution in LinuxSampler

Hello! sorry for crossposting, but I didn't know, where to best reach the LS-wizards. I wondered about convolution in LinuxSampler. The GS3 format certainly supports in-sampler convolving (having their own files for that). I seem to rememb3er, that working out the format was not the real

Hello Lorenzo! Using custom tones to mimic movement of sliders or marking the access of an element (button, list, etc.) is not completely off. I mean graphical apps use a lot of signalling sounds, so do some text based apps. Yet in the context of audio software I think it's not very

Hello Nick, hello all other interested devs! :-) I just tested the first version of the CLI from Bristol. In general it works fine. Very easy, the cursor keys work, the display is just fine. The value and parameter name are not so far apart, that they wouldn't fit on 40 characters. So even

Hi Louigi! Not exactly in response to your mail: But there is a csound vocoder instrument (udo - user defined opcode), which I suppose is relatively easy to tweak into a vocoder instrument with predefined carrier waveforms, which is the only thing I've seen in real live so far. I have a real

Hey Louigi! I'm just downloading your piece. I can't see the vocoder, as I'm blind. :-) but, when your a composer relying on some synthetic tricks, why not use one of the Linux biggies, like PureData, Csound (with one of its GUIs) or CLM or SuperCollider. I'm sure they all have some kind of

Hello Aaron! I like the tool. But I'd have a few suggestions. I supose you get a list of all possible ports before printing them. Could you compare them to the LIENS variable (offered by the shell and things like curses). If there are more ports 5trhen lines, could you please use a pager?

Hello all! I just got back into asterisk, the big telephony pbx system. It has a JACK module, which is very helpful to me, as it allows me to use asterisk with its cLI to be my telephone. Since I found no other commandline telephone supporting JACK, this is the only way to get there. So

Morning Fons! I meant the JACK interface to Asterisk. Ihas a function to handle input and one to handle output. There audio gets resampled if necessary and then written to a ringbuffer. Or vice versa for soundcard input to Asterisk channel output. Kindly yours Julien
