 Hi all,
  
 My name is Daire O'Neill. I've just joined the list to hopefully begin 
 my learning on audio development and possibly to contribute to some 
 current projects. As a beginner, I have only basic C/C++ skills, and 
 have never worked on any major project before. I do have a good 
 knowledge of audio technology and some basic DSP concepts, its the 
 programming side of things that lets me down! I'm currently working my 
 way through 'Accelerated C++' by Koenig and Moo though, so I'm 
 learning every day. I really want to learn about audio development and 
 become involved with an audio project, particularly a multitrack 
 recorder. I would like to be able to write my own simple multitrack 
 recorder eventually. Anyway, if anyone has any tips or suggestions, or 
 can recommend a project where I could be of help, then please let me 
 know.
  
 
 Hi,

 Welcome to Linux Audio Development.

 There are several projects that you may be interested in contributing to.

 The most advanced is Ardour. It uses c++ and you will learn a lot 
 studying the code.

 There is also Audacity which is cross platform so that could be another 
 good app to get involved with.

 For a full list of apps check out the apps wiki

 http://apps.linuxaudio.org


   

I know Audacity was searching for a JACK developer to get better JACK 
support.

You also can take a look here for some small projects:

Traverso is also looking for developers, it's C++/qt4 and has an
unusual UI concept.

[LAD] 1 and 2 and 3 and 4 ...

2009-01-06 Thread Thorsten Wilms
Hi!

This already went to the LAU list, please ignore if you are subscribed
there, too.


This is a call for contributions. Take your chance of becoming part of 
a crowd of people all around the world, counting to the rhythm in
several languages!

Contributors will be credited in order of their submissions and this will
also likely influence the order of use in the track ;)

Besides recording yourself and family and friends and pets (if they are
able to count), you can help by spreading the word.


What I'm after are recordings of one person at a time, saying:
A: One Two Three Four
B: One and Two and Three and Four and
C: Beat (to be translated to whatever makes sense 4 times in one measure
at 4/4. A single utterance is enough, as I want to use these as accent.)

- Translated in a native language and any language spoken without much
of an accent. If there are special ways of counting to the beat in a 
language, use those (only or even better additionally) and inform me.
- With a tempo of 110 beats per minute (to be very clear, the and has 
to be between beats ;).
- A and B should ideally be recorded with about 4 iterations (4 measures)


Don't think that your language will already be well-represented without
you. Others might think the same ;) Also, the more I can layer in one
language, the better.


All files should be:
- ideally wavpacked, or plain WAV as second choice
- 32 bit float, 48 KHz
- Trimmed
- Normalized
- Dry
- Explicitly licensed as http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0/
  or released to the Public Domain

_Only_ if you don't record with a JACK application, 16 and 24 bit integer
formats are also acceptable.



Please name the files as follows:
- firstname_lastname_language_count.wav for One Two Three Four
- firstname_lastname_language_count_and.wav for One and Two ...
- firstname_lastname_language_beat.wav for Beat



Email attachments are no option for such large files, so only send
links to uploads. Consider using http://www.getdropbox.com/ if you have
no other space. Please mail me off-list for submissions and on-list for
questions.
I'm also available as thorwil in #lad and #ardour at irc.freenode.net.



My intention is to offer the result and the material on archive.org.
This is an open-source project ;)
I also want to submit a version to the
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuFreeCultureShowcase

I can't promise to use all contributions. I will sort out ones that
sound suspiciously different from others claimed to be in the same
language ;)
However, all serious contributors will be given credit.


Deadline:
I will start to work with the material as soon as I have enough, but 
will accept more until the 23rd of January.


Thanks!
