<html><head></head><body>Hey Lamar,<br>
<br>
I packaged alsa-tools as it is but without hwmixvolume because this has a dependency to python-alsa which is not provided by centos-base or centos-updates.<br>
<br>
Take a look here:<br>
<a href="https://git.centos.org/blob/rpms!alsa-tools/4590a5d5a9399b097bf20e51442013335f5949c9/SPECS!alsa-tools.spec">https://git.centos.org/blob/rpms!alsa-tools/4590a5d5a9399b097bf20e51442013335f5949c9/SPECS!alsa-tools.spec</a><br>
<br>
Mudita seems to be based on envy24control which is part of alsa-tools.<br>
<br>
I think packages should be devided into two groups:<br>
1. System preparation and configuration:<br>
Realtime kernel<br>
Tuned profiles<br>
Realtime related configuration files<br>
2. Audio applications:<br>
DAW software (Ardour, Rose garden,...)<br>
Plugins<br>
Midi stuff<br>
Whatever...<br>
<br>
BTW: It seems, no distribution has calf 0.0.60. Even Fedora has 0.0.19. And there nice improvements. :-)<br>
<br>
Regards<br>

Do note that an older version of <br />calf is in the nux repo that includes both the LV2 and LADSPA versions, <br />but it is definitely older than the one you have packaged. QJackCtl is <br />a nice one, too. I definitely am looking forward to seeing what you <br />come up with. Heh, time to dig out my Tascam US224 and US428 again to <br />check for compatibility, and it really is time for someone to figure out <br />how to
force a particular USB endpoint to go to UHCI or OHCI and bypass <br />EHCI for the Tascam US-144 and US-122L, or reverse-engineer the USB 2 <br />protocols...... I'm concerned about the US-x2y stuff, though, since last <br />I tried on a kernel > 3.8 the US-224 would KP the box under AVLinux 6 <br />when any program opened the device, but I haven't tried it with C7 for <br />some reason. I have a US-428 buried on my desk; time to do some digging <br />and prepare to grab a KP and troubleshoot.<br /><br />Having alsa-tools is wonderful, but getting mudita24 for all those <br />Envy24/ICE1712 cards out there like the Delta 1010, 44, 66, and certain <br />revisions of the 1010LT (I have one of these in a C7 machine at home, <br />and I hand-built mudita24 for it, and it works well), as well as <br />echomixer for all the Echo Audio stuff out there (I have an old <br />first-gen 20-bit Layla on which I can test). And it's about time I put <br />together that package of the
dat-tools for using SGI-firmware-bearing <br />Seagate DDS DAT drives for pulling audio off of DATs...... that's the <br />only reason I keep my Purple Indigo2 IMPACT system running with IRIX is <br />to use my SGI DAT drive with the IRIX audio software to pull audio from <br />DATs. But that's in the future......<br /><br />On the patent-encumbered codec front, for decoding MP3's the Fluendo <br />codec is or was no-cost, and I think that codec should be the one <br />pointed to if any. Nux has 'the rest.' But Johnny's exactly right <br />about a SIG of CentOS and patent-encumbrance issues related to being <br />under US copyright and patent laws.<br /><br />I'm actually running Mixbus on one of my three screens right now as I <br />type this for my weekly production tasks......<br /><br /><hr /><br />CentOS-devel mailing list<br />CentOS-devel@centos.org<br /><a
