Low Latency vs. Real Time Kernel
by Brian Monroe 10 Nov '14

10 Nov '14

I've been spending a lot of time on the #opensourcemusicians channel talking to Ubuntu Studio users about their kernel and latency times they're getting. Seems like most of them are using g a stock kernel with the preemptive option enabled and they are getting great latency results (2ms)while utilizing the @audio group on their user. I ended up compiling my own low latency kernel and I haven't had any issues with it yet. If this is what we are missing for the spin I'd be happy to maintain packaging for the kernel. I know ccrma has been behind a few kernel releases. I saw the instructions for adding the real time patch for a tick less kernel and from what I can tell it wouldn't be hard to get that rolling as well. I'm not entirely sure what ccrma does differently with their kernels compared to other Linux users, and I'm still a bit of a noob so I could be off base with this, but I would reason that we should be able to just utilize the same settings to archive similar performance enhancements. I thought I read that ccrma uses a unique scheduler, but if we could get a 2ms latency time without it, the point may be moot.

Ideas for Banner
by Onyeibo Oku 04 Nov '12

Hellos We're considering Fedora-Jam (spin) for highlight at http://fedoraproject.org/ webpage for F18. I would appreciate insight on packaged tools in the spin that can inspire a banner design on that page. Its possible Ardour3 will be ready for F18 so a cool screenshot from someone running the beta will be great. What else? Regards Onyeibo

A quick spin vox-pop
by Ian Malone 01 Nov '12

01 Nov '12

A week or so ago I thought I'd canvas some opinion on what people might want from the spin. So I asked at the Rob Chapman guitar forums, Rob is probably best known for gear demos and lessons on youtube, and for starting a guitar company that makes collaboratively designed guitars. So these are people who are used to community participation, but not necessarily free software (though I probably skewed that a bit by using their geeks forum). Anyway, discussion seems to have finished, so here's the thread: http://www.robchapman.tv/forum/threads/fedora-jam-music-creation-collection… Not a whole lot of new ideas. There are a few people already using Linux for audio production and they are generally happy with what they already use, not very surprising as they probably wouldn't be using it if they weren't. However things that came up: 1. Hardware support. Not much we can do from a spin/music-list point of view to improve driver support, but worth having advice and links to the Alsa matrix visible somewhere. There is a lot of supported gear, but there are people like digitalscream who've got hardware which is unlikely to work. 2. Integration. Touched on, things need to work without too much setup. This is even more important since it seems the spin will be the starting point for people new to linux audio. It's not the primary goal of the music list effort (that's really the packaging that Brendan and others are doing), but it does serve as a showcase for that work. -- imalone http://ibmalone.blogspot.co.uk

But I'm hoping there's going to be a way to get Pulse and Jack into agreement on F18, I know it can be done in F16 -- imalone http://ibmalone.blogspot.co.uk
