[Alsa-user] ES1969 problems

2004-03-25 Thread Thomas Fritz
I have switched over from a Thinkpad 390E to a Thinkpad 390X.  The 
hardware is virtually identical between the two models, but I'm having 
trouble on the 390X.  Sound playback is 1/3 to 1/4 normal speed, and 
even the slow slow is kinda 'chirpy' and choppy.  All other hardware 
works fine.

I'm using Mandrake 9.2, kernel 2.4.22, Alsa 0.9.6

More info on the problem:  it doesn't matter whether I'm logged in to KDE or just to
a character-mode shell.  I tried running KMix and turning up all the ouputs without
success.  I then ran aumix and turned up the outputs, also to no success.  While a CD
is playing I can playback an ogg with Noatun, and the ogg plays back just fine.

Re: [Alsa-user] Intel 8x0 and Midi

2004-03-25 Thread Matt Middleton
I tried using both pmidi and aplay midi and I get the
exact same results.  One thing that is weird is that
classical midis seem to play fine, or at least better
than rock midis.  The rock midis play fine in windows,
however, using the microsoft synthesizer.  Even on the
rock midis it seems liek the problem is primarily with
the percussion, whereas the melody seems fine mostly. 
I downloaded a different set of patches (the eaw) and
it hasn't changed.  I checked the system monitor and
the cpu isn't going above 42 percent, and the ram
usage isn't going over 280 mb out of 768.  To
reiterate the problem, it seems like there is some
major tempo problem; it seems like it is constantly
speeding up and slowing down as if it were trying to
match the desired tempo but it can only do so within
about a 30% range on either side.  

Here is the output after running timidity:
Requested buffer size 2048, fragment size 1024
ALSA pcm 'default' set buffer size 64768, period size
16192 bytes
TiMidity starting in ALSA server mode
Opening sequencer port: 128:0 128:1 128:2 128:3

I'm using timidity++ version 2.13.0-rc2

Thanks for the help.

Matt

[Alsa-user] Midi not working C-Media CM8738 (Mad Dog Predator card)

2004-03-25 Thread Brett
I compiled ALSA 1.0.3 on my Red Hat 7.3 box last week (./configure
--with-cards=cmipci --with-sequencer=yes;make;make install). I cannot get
Midi to function. The midi modules load up fine but when I try to play a
midi file I get:

Using playmidi:
"open /dev/sequencer: No such device"
But it does exist.

Using aplaymidi:
"ALSA lib seq_hw.c:446:(snd_seq_hw_open) open /dev/snd/seq failed: No such
file or directory
Cannot open sequencer - No such file or directory"
Which is correct, this device doesn't exist. Do I need to add it manually?
How?

[Alsa-user] Custom 48000Hz Problem

2004-03-25 Thread Darrell Blake
I'm having trouble getting my Audigy2 NX card working under Linux. I may 
have sent this email once already and apologies if I have but I havn't 
received it back from myself so I'm not too sure. I noticed that in the 
alsamixer there were two things showing up. PCM and Speaker. So all I 
did was change the mixer device to Speaker in Xmms. Now though when I 
try and use the 48000Hz device I defined in .asoundrc thus...

pcm.48000Hz {
 type plug
 slave {
 pcm "hw:0,0"
 rate 48000
 }
 route_policy default
}
...XMMS crashes. But sound plays if I use USB Audio (but very poppy). 
I've also tried creating speaker.48000Hz and I've also tried putting 
them both in but XMMS always crashes with this message...

ALSA lib pcm_hw.c:494:(snd_pcm_hw_start) SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_START failed: 
Broken pipe

** WARNING **: alsa_mmap_audio(): snd_pcm_start failed: Broken pipe

In fact, any program which tries to use the 48000 device crashes.

Any ideas?

Darrell

i don't know exactly but there is an "analog volume" which i have set at
100.

the VU movements i get are on HW in 1/2 for input, and PCM out 1-9 for
playback. these aren't affected by the patchbay settings.

no, they don't correspond - totally different lists. does this mean i need
to become an .asoundrc hacker? :/

> And what's do you mean by HW out and PCM out? They are the same?

apparently HW out is the name of two channels (columns in the patchbay); and
PCM out is a couple of options in those columns. in the mixer, i have 9 "PCM
out" meters and nothing for "HW out". what is the relationship between them
supposed to be?

> Envy24control can be started with limiting the inputs and outputs shown.
> Try setting them to max.
>

this produces the default behavior, no different channels at all. the
maximum inputs is indeed 8 (again, analog signal comes in on 1/2).

i can't swear that any of the config is right. frankly it's daunting. if i
knew what i were looking for i could try to repair it, but perhaps it would
be better to steal a working asoundrc from someone else with this card.

thanks so much tommi!

KsCD simply instructs your CD drive to start playing.  If there isn't
a cable between the analog output of the CD drive and the CD input on
the motherboard, you won't hear anything.  In that case, you have to
use a plugin/program that can extract the digital audio data from the
CD and play it through the sound card.
Hi, I'm back from my trip.

Audio CDs played just fine right up until I unloaded the OSS drivers and 
loaded the ALSA drivers.  The computer hasn't been opened or moved at 
all, so I think it's highly unlikely that the cable got disconnected.

Given that I was changing drivers, the problem most likely came from 
some mistake I made, such as removing one driver too many.  OSS 
emulation perhaps?

Thanks,
Steve

[Alsa-user] Ensoniq ISA card detected by BIOS/isapnp, doesn't work

2004-03-25 Thread Dan Furlani
I have an ISA Ensoniq Soundscape card (circa 1995-6) that I can't get
to work.

The BIOS recognizes it:
   Initializing Plug and Play Cards
   Card-01: ENSONIQ Soundscape

isapnp recognizes it:
   isapnp: Scanning for PnP cards
   isapnp: Card 'ENSONIQ Soundscape'
   isapnp: 1 Plug & Play card detected total

and that's it.  I've tried modprob'ing in snd-sscape & the other
snd-*-oss modules and running alsamixer or system-config-soundcard.
No luck.  What should I do?

On shutdown I get an error:
   Saving mixer settings  auxmix: error opening mixer [FAILED]

Details:
Motherboard is an ABit AH6, BIOS is Award v4.51PG, there's some PnP
BIOS extension v1.0A.  I've tried Yes and No settings for 'PnP OS'.
OS was originally Redhat 8, upgraded to FC1, upgraded to FC2-test1.
The sound card came in a GW2k box purchased in Feb 1996.  It worked
under Win95/98 back when I had that OS.

Is there other output from dmesg or /proc that would be helpful?

Thank you very much!!!

It works, thanks!

So in summary, with the Sound Blaster MP3+ USB I am able to:

Playback with phones out
Capture with mic in
Capture with line ins

with reasonable results for an inexpensive USB card. My S/N is
pretty bad right now, but I think need a decent preamp for my
miked stuff. I've not tried playback through line outs yet nor
optical I/O.

thanks to all who responded!

Don't unplug the cam.  :-)
(I think 2.6.4 indeed does have a bug related to the unplugging of USB
devices.)

What sound card do you have?

"alsactl save", and "alsactl restore" restores them.  These commands
should go into some startup script.

time in JACK.

He's my asoundrc:

pcm.rme_stereo {
type hw
card 0
device 0
}

ctl.rme_stereo {
type hw
card 0
device 0
}

pcm.rme_adat {
type hw
card 0
device 1
}

ctl.rme_adat {
type hw
card 0
device 1
}

pcm.rme96 {
type multi;
slaves.a.pcm rme_stereo;
slaves.a.channels 2;
slaves.b.pcm rme_adat;
slaves.b.channels 8;
bindings.0.slave a;
bindings.0.channel 0;
bindings.1.slave a;
bindings.1.channel 1;
bindings.0.slave b;
bindings.0.channel 0;
bindings.1.slave b;
bindings.1.channel 1;
bindings.4.slave b;
bindings.4.channel 2;
bindings.5.slave b;
bindings.5.channel 3;
bindings.6.slave b;
bindings.6.channel 4;
bindings.7.slave b;
bindings.7.channel 5;
bindings.8.slave b;
bindings.8.channel 6;
bindings.9.slave b;
bindings.9.channel 7;


}
pcm.rme{
type route;
slave.pcm rme96;
ttable.0.0 1;
ttable.1.1 1;
ttable.2.2 1;
ttable.3.3 1;
ttable.4.4 1;
ttable.5.5 1;
ttable.6.6 1;
ttable.7.7 1;
ttable.8.8 1;
ttable.9.9 1;
}
ctl.rme{
type hw
card 0
}


But, infortunately, it doesn't work... Maybe I made a
mistake, if you see one... 

But, i've also the idea that it isn't possible, cause
the buffer and period in JACK for the two devices
alone aren't the same... There's no matching
configuration...

Well, when i try to run my device rme in JACK, i've
got:

jackd 0.94.0

the playback device "rme" is already in use. Please
stop the application using it and run JACK again
cannot load driver module alsa
12:20:18.451 JACK was stopped successfully.

But, there is no other applications using one or the
other of the devices, so I don't understand.

If anyone got an idea...

Thanks 

François

Yes, the MPU-401 is a hardware MIDI interface which isn't useful
unless you connect an external synthesizer to it.

What program did you use to play MIDI files?
Does the same happen with pmidi and/or aplaymidi?

[Alsa-user] unreliable Sound probs

2004-03-25 Thread Matthieu Rollet
I've installed the new 2.6.4 kernel on my mdk 9.2 distro and alsa 1.0.3 from
the tarball of the alsa page. 

But when I use the sound thought XMMS or mpg123 or else, everyting freezes
and I have to push the reset button (sysrq dont work). 

Everything is functionnal (I can hear music) ONLY when I have my USB camera
pluged in an USB port. If I play music and I unplug my cam, the PC freezes.

I cannot understand why. 

Does somebody have any ideas to help me ?

thanks
