Re: a programme addition request
Correct D. Werner separated notation from Muse, and is developing it as a standalone programme. I've just noticed this morning, after reading Edwards's post that Toby Smithe has been working on this at version 0.7.0. The current release is 0.8.0, and quite considerable further along the road. Is this the normal pattern of events for programme inclusion? Susan, in a fit of bravado, I tried to compile 0.8.0 last night, and got plenty of errors, all pretty well related to a cmake problem. I'm not smart enough with linux yet to understand why i would get an error stating a programme i have installed, isn't installed. (?) If any of you have the time and knowledge to check out why this breaks, i would appreciate it. I'm only a notation editor and a few midi ports away from dumping Win and going pure linux, and in terms of printout and usability in my particular workflow, mscore gets the closest. Regards to you all for the festive season, and i wish you prosperity, success, and much enjoyment in the year to come.. Alex. On Dec 23, 2007 2:36 AM, D.

Re: Mscore from source
OK, all instructions to compile from source will be on the list. I am entirely confident of being able to install it. BTW -- I'm a linux enthusiast, not a musician. I use Studio because I run Dragon NaturallySpeaking 9 speech recognition software on WINE, and I like the RT kernel and the sound tweaks. I've upgraded to Hardy Heron already, but there shouldn't be a problem.

It did; on the 19th of December. The packages were made on the 2nd of December, and 0.7.0 was the latest available release at that time. I'm sure it will all get caught up eventually. It's the nature of this entire development model, where everybody is on a different schedule. New distro releases ship with old versions of Rosegarden very frequently, for example. There's not much to be done about it. Even when we (Rosegarden) actively try to coordinate our own release with that of some distro, it never works out well. Just the nature of the game, I'm afraid. -- D.

It usually is not available after a boot until I move the switch off, then on. A quick check in Applications/Sound and Video/Aseq will show which midi interfaces are available - if I see the x-session I know the rest is good to go ;) IIRC, the module supporting this device is snd-usb-audio. $sudo modprobe usb-audio I like to watch the system log messages in Administration/System logs when connecting new devices. You should see some messages when turning the switch on related to a new usb device, and the loading of the right module. You can also see which devices are connected to your USB Buss with: $lsusb Hope this helps and happy holidays! -jonathan adams leonard _ MSN Video. http://video.msn.com/?mkt=es-es-- Ubuntu-Studio-users mailing list Ubuntu-Studio-users@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-users
Re: Speech Recognition
On Sunday 23 December 2007, Edward Dunagin wrote: I had IBM's VoaVoice for Linuc and Xvoice for Linux as well working on a Debian system five or so years ago, but I had a system crash and lost it. Just trying to get the same working now on my UbuntuStudio system. Yeah, those are the names of the things I wrestled with to no avail. The problem now is that all of that is obsolete, and/or unobtainable. For example, the ViaVoice Linux mini-FAQ said in 2005: Rupert Kolb asked IBM about the status of Linux ViaVoice in March 2005. The answers were: IBM: ``ViaVoice is no longer supported by IBM. You may contact Media Gold GmbH, or ScanSoft Germany GmbH''. Media Gold GmbH: ``We have nothing for Linux''. ScanSoft Germany GmbH: ``We can't offer a program for Linux''. [1] Then there's the Speech Recognition HOWTO from 2002 [2] which offers more promises of things that were, but no longer are. Finally, I think I pinned my hopes on the Sphinx project, which purported to be an open source speech recognition application. But this warning from their web page is an apt assessment of the status quo as of maybe a year ago: Note however that Sphinx is not a final product. Those with a certain level of expertise can achieve great results with the versions of Sphinx available here, but a naive user will certainly need further help. In other words, the software available here is not meant for users with no experience in speech, but for expert users.[3] And so on, and so forth. I probably followed more leads last time, but none of them went anywhere. But if you've got this smell in your nose, don't let me talk you out of smashing your head into some brick walls for yourself. If you're anything like me, you're going to try anyway, no matter what anyone says to discourage you. So have at it my friend, and good luck!

Re: Speech Recognition
The only way to get real speech recognition on Linux is to run Dragon NaturallySpeaking version 7, 8 or 9, using WINE. Version 9, only Preferred works. I think Standard and Preferred both work for versions 7 and 8. Forget Professional, Legal and Medical versions. Once you get them installed, they run as fast and as accurately as they do on Windows, provided you stick to text recognition. Text can be input ONLY into the included DragonPad program or the Notepad program that comes with WINE. From there, text can be cut and pasted into other programs using the mouse and keys. Follow the directions here: http://ossri.harvee.org/NaturallySpeakingWine Start DNS from the desktop icon. Start Notepad from a terminal using the command: wine notepad If anyone has any difficulty installing, give me a shout on-list using the header Speech Recognition --Help or something like that, because I don't read all the Studio mailing list entries. One tip, if you are new to Dragon NaturallySpeaking ... keep your expectations modest. Also, realize that the microphone they ship with the program is a piece of crap. If you can't get an accuracy score above 23 for the microphone, throw it away and get a new one. (One good thing about this list, I assume you all have good microphones.) Good soundcards are also a must. (Another problem you probably don't have.) 1GB RAM is essential. A fast processor is good.

(One good thing about this list, I assume you all have good microphones.) Hey, speaking of which, does anybody out there want to buy a gently used Shure Beta 58 that was owned by a Rosegarden developer? :) I didn't know the difference between cardioid and supercardioid, and wound up blowing more money for nothing on something really ill-suited for my recording environment. The supercardioid pattern picks up tons of unwanted reflections off my walls, and I never use the much more expensive microphone. Cardioid is the way to go in here, definitely, and I'm happier with my plain ol' non-Beta SM58. But of course you can't return a microphone, because you might have spit on it, and your saliva might give someone AIDS or something. Yeah, I know, this isn't Craig's list.
