To fully test you'll need a guitar and pickup plugged into your soundcard, but even a go/nogo on whether it starts would be helpful. Where I developed the package, it works OK, but another older AMD machine, it fails during startup. This will help me to decide whether to push it to the F8,F9 updates repos. DaveT.

whysynth doesn't work
by Florin Andrei 06 Jan '26

06 Jan '26

I got whysynth-dssi-20060122-7.src.rpm from here: http://people.redhat.com/green/FE/devel/ I rebuilt it on FC6 without problems. The thing is, the GUI doesn't show up. The program appears to be working, I see the outputs being automatically routed in qjackctl, but there's no GUI anywhere! ############################################### $ jack-dssi-host whysynth.so jack-dssi-host: Warning: DSSI path not set jack-dssi-host: Defaulting to "/usr/local/lib/dssi:/usr/lib/dssi:/home/florin/.dssi" jack-dssi-host: OSC URL is: osc.udp://rivendell.home.local:15040/dssi/whysynth/WhySynth/chan00 host: Ready WhySynth_gtk starting (pid 4305)... ############################################### -- Florin Andrei http://florin.myip.org/

New packages / Fedora Audio
by Brendan Jones 11 Feb '12

11 Feb '12

Hi all, I have recently gone through the pain of relocating countries, setting up new workstations etc. and would love to have all the packages I use sitting in Fedora. As a result I've packaged a few things which I use What is the status of the Fedora Audio SIG? After going through this myself I am keen to resurrect the idea of a Fedora Studio. We could even make it a feature of Fedora 17. We would probably need to coordinate from planetccrma what desperately needs to be in mainline Fedora and any other packages which are missing. If there is anything you would like packaged which is not let me know. In the meantime there is a new packages that have hit Fedora 16 (at .least) in the last month or so. zita-at1 - Fons' auto-tuner zita-rev1 - Reverb from Fons phat - GTK toolkit for audio software, was in planetccrma, depandancy of specimen. New project coming soon to Fedora petri-foo, which replaces/inherits specimen (currently FTBS in planet) clxclient - dependancy of zita*, previously in planetccrma* I also have a couple of lv2 plugins awaiting review here [1]. Also thinking of packaging Neil, although this will probably need to reside in rpmfusion regards, Brendan [1] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/buglist.cgi?query_format=advanced&classificatio… FAS: bsjones Freenode: bsjones (not often but will lurk in #fedora-audio, #opensourcemusicians for a bit)

When these are complete I can have a look at Open Octave. You probably already know that this is a fork of Rosegarden which we do have in the repos. regards, Brendan

Open Octave Midi
by Thomas Volkmann 11 Jan '12

11 Jan '12

Hi all, I stumbled over this some weeks ago: http://www.openoctave.org/ . I think it looks very interesting and I definitely need to give it a try, but I failed miserably at building it. I contacted Thomas Moschny to ask if maybe he could do a package for it, but he has no time for it and suggested that I could try this list. Is there anyone who build it already and give me some instructions, or even provide a package? That would be so awesome! cheers, Thomas

POLL: most used audio packages / yum audio production group
by Brendan Jones 10 Jan '12

10 Jan '12

Some of you may have seen my recent posts about my desire to actualise some kind of Fedora Audio spin. I think the first step in this process is to determine what software Fedora Audio users are using on a regular basis. Once we have this we can determine a usable subset of audio packages that can form the basis of a yum group. Whilst we can garner a lot of the information from .desktop files and the work of the multimedia menus package, I think it is important to find the lowest common subset of packages. So what I propose is a poll! Firstly, list your name , DE, (XFCE/KDEGNOME/LXDE/OpenBox/..etc) then with a list of packages that you regularly use, in descending order of importance. Please specify where you obtained the package if not in fedora repositories. For example: Brendan Jones:KDE jack lash qtractor (rpmfusion) zynaddsubfx zynjacku qmidiarp seq24 rosegarden4 hydrogen dssi-vst yoshimI (source) ingen (source) sylenth (vst) Don't be afraid to repeat what others have posted, that way I can gauge numbers. This data can then be used to come up with a minimal subset of Fedora audio packages that we can lump together in a yum group. So, Merry Xmas! And I look forward to seeing everyone's replies!

lv2 reviews and upcoming release
by Brendan Jones 07 Jan '12

07 Jan '12

For the packagers on this list I am awaiting peer review on the following: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=760270 lv2-ams-plugins - LV2 port of the Alsa Modular Synth modules https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=766154 lv2-kn0ck0ut - An LV2 spectral subtraction plugin (linux audio) https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=754004 lv2-abGate - an LV2 Noise Gate plugin I've knocked one of my list but the 3 above are still outstanding. lv2 plugins are REALLY easy to review. 2 for one offer still stands, and I have many others ready to package. Also the lv2 spec has recently been updated. Some changes will affect all lv2 packages. There is also a lot of lv2 development stuff which has not been packaged, which should. If I could draw everyone's attention to this bug coordinating the upgrade: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=771997 There are some exciting ports coming to LV2 (in adition to the above) which we really need to include in Fedora. Be nice if all of this could be done pre-branch Thanks Brendan (bsjones)

Just a few questions. 1. There's no reason why these scripts cannot run with 0.9.2 right? 2. what version of jackd are you using - from the repos? or have you compiled your own with DBUS support? (jackdbus only just hit f16 recently and you are using f15) As for your question about a2jmidid I just pkill it also. Another script I use in f16 that I put in my path is this: (the $1 parameter is either start or stop. pre|post in yr examples). I'm a developer so most people won't be using a lot of these services anyway, but you can tailor it for your needs: fedora16:~ $ cat ~/bin/audio_services #!/bin/bash beesu systemctl $1 nfs-idmap.service nfs-lock.service ksm.service ksmtuned.service abrtd.service cups.socket cups.service sm-client.service sendmail.service ntpd.service mysqld.service httpd.service libvirtd.service crond.service sshd.service smb.service if [ $1 == "stop" ] then beesu modprobe -r ath9k else beesu modprobe ath9k; fi Cross posting to Fedora-music also as I think this is of keen interest there (apologies) Brendan
