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.

Comps group for Fedora Audio Spin packages
by Brendan Jones 30 Jul '14

30 Jul '14

Hi all, does anyone have any objection to a new comps group containing packages currently present in the Fedora Jam audio spin? We will be discussing names further within the music creation SIG / fedora-music mailing list soon, but Audio Production or Music Creation are two that immediately spring to mind. Suggestions welcome. regards Brendan

Fedora Audio yum/dnf group
by Brendan Jones 11 Jul '14

11 Jul '14

Hi all, I've been really busy this year so really no new packages for this release are likely (maybe one or two I have up for review if I can finish them off). One thing we can do that I noticed people were talking about a while back was the yum groups for Fedora Audio/Jam for people who don't necessarily want to install the spin. I'm traveling at the moment so probably won't have to much time to do this myself. Maybe someone would like to put the XML together as described here, and I can get it submitted: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_use_and_edit_comps.xml_for_package_gr… This needs to be done before 2014-07-22 Software String Freeze The current package list for Jam can be obtained from here: https://git.fedorahosted.org/cgit/spin-kickstarts.git/tree/fedora-live-jam-… The current comps file can be grabbed from here: https://git.fedorahosted.org/cgit/comps.git/tree/comps-f21.xml.in cheers Brendan

Sponsor and Review needed
by Brian Monroe 09 Jul '14

09 Jul '14

Hey guys, I was finally able to figure out what was going on with synthclone. I've got the rpm built and successful koji builds but I still need review and a sponsor. I do want to get to a place where I can help out brandon and others with some of the packaging.
