[Alsa-user] Assertion `node-type == SND_CONFIG_TYPE_COMPOUND' failed.
Hi list, my sound doesn't work anymore... Everything worked fine until a week or so, but then alsa stopped working. Whatever I try to play, aplay: conf.c:3144: snd_config_iterator_first: Assertion `node-type == SND_CONFIG_TYPE_COMPOUND' failed. that error comes up... I'm using alsa 1.0.10-r3 in gentoo, linux-2.6.15-ck2, with an cmipci card... I hope somebody can help me, I need sound for working... Thanks, Lorenz --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

Re: [Alsa-user] Vivanco 6C PCI and Midi?
Hi Lorenz. I'm sorry at giving you false hopes in being able to load soundfonts on your card. I thought that all soundcards with a wavetable Synth were capable of it. Regarding the Ensoniq card. I have one of these too on another machine, and it uses the es1371 driver, but again has no wavetable synth. It does work ok with Alsa though. Something I cannot understand is why you are getting such terrible latency problems. Using jackd (jack-audio-connection-kit) and Qjackctl, even with a latency of 42.7 msec on an FC2 install, I cannot detect any latency when playing my Evolution MK225C usb keyboard. The only problems I have with severe latency is with Wine. Using VSTi's with Savihost, and Wine I get latency problems like playing a pipe organ. I see from the Vivanco site (which is incredibly slow) that the card isn't expensive. so an alternative is to buy a Creative card that uses an EMU driver if you want to use soundfonts, or first. Install jackd, and Qjackctl (the GUI frontend to jackd with a midi connections panel) . then install ZynAddSubFx (synth). Then you can try your keyboard using ZynAddSubFx, and play with the latency problems in Qjackctl's setup. With FC2 in Qjackctl's setup I have Frames/Period set to 1024, and Periods/Buffer to 2. This gives me a latency of 42.7 msec, not fantastic, but hardly noticeable. If you don't have realtime capabilities in the kernel, make sure you uncheck the Realtime box in Qjackctl, otherwise the jack daemon won't start. You still havn't said which distro, or kernel you are using, but if you are using a 2.4 kernel the Server path in Qjackctl needs to be jackstart. If you are using a 2.6 kernel the Server path needs to be jackd . All the best, and I hope to hear you making some music soon. Nigel. Hi, I have a Ensoniq Card here. It uses snd-ens1371, but as far I know, it doesn't have a onboard synth, too... My USB keyboard hasn't any noticeable latency, but I still have ~250 ms with qsynth. Maybe because I'm running a PIII 800... My dist is Gentoo, my kernel 2.6.14-ck6. I bought this Vivanco-card, because the hompage tells me about a onboard wavetable synth. So I don't trust descriptions any more. Would be very very nice, if somebody simply told me the name/a link of a card, wich plays midi without a software synth. Thanks so far, Lorenz P.S.: sorry for my bad english, i hope you can understand it... ;) --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Do you grep through log files for problems? Stop!

Re: [Alsa-user] Vivanco 6C PCI and Midi?
Hi Lorenz. It sounds like your card is like my Audigy2 soundblaster then. You will need to load a soundfont onto the card. If you have the cdrom for the card, the soundfont (.sf2) should be somewhere on it, and you'll need to copy it to your home directory. If you havn't got the cdrom, you can get GM (General Midi) soundfonts from, http://www.hammersound.net . To load the soundfont you will need the package awesfx which may or may not already be installed. Then on the CLI, run, sfxload path_to_soundfont_filename without the double quotes. If you cannot load soundfonts onto the card, you could always use Qsynth, which is the front end to fluidsynth, and load a soundfont into that. Incidentally. Which distro, and desktop are you using? If you're using KDE, I have a small script you can use to autoload the soundfont onto the card. Let us know how you get on. Nigel. Hi Nigel, hi list, I decided to give up and to buy a new card. I need a card which costs less than 25 €(Euro), plays MIDI without problems and in a good qualiti and is complitliy compatible with alsa. Which one should I choose? I don't want to buy a wrong again, you understand? Thanks so far, bye, Lorenz --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Do you grep through log files for problems? Stop!

[Alsa-user] Vivanco 6C PCI and Midi?
Hello folks, I wonder if I can play/use MIDI with Vivanco 6C PCI without using timidity. In the description they write about a onboard-DSL-wavetable-synthesizer. Arent these wavetables for playing Midi without a software synth? # aplaymidi -l PortClient name Port name 64:0MPU-401 MIDI 0-0 MPU-401 MIDI 0-0 65:0OPL3 FM synthOPL3 FM Port 72:0Keycontr Keycontr MIDI 1 80:0Virtual Raw MIDI 2-0 VirMIDI 2-0 81:0Virtual Raw MIDI 2-1 VirMIDI 2-1 82:0Virtual Raw MIDI 2-2 VirMIDI 2-2 83:0Virtual Raw MIDI 2-3 VirMIDI 2-3 I can play on all ports, but I don't get a sound anywhere... So I got my new MIDI-Keyboard(72:0), but I can't use it without 1/2 sec delay because of timidity... Would be nice if somebody could help me...
