music apps on Linux
« on: 31 August 2002, 17:34 »
Hello all,

I've recently installed RH7.3 on my box (this is my first experience with Linux) and would spend most of the time on this side of the fence if I can get some decent music apps on the FruityLoops sort of tip. I heard about one app called 'Reborn' but it's been removed (due to issues with propellerhead).
I'd greatly appreciate any pointers you can give.

Thanks

i heard of one called SLab which might be up to the sort of standard of sound forge but i could not get it to install.

If you find any good ones, please keep us informed! there is another thread in the unix section about this if you want to dig it out.

welcome, and good luck!

Thanks for that Callum.

Another issue is that when I start up (in KDE desktop) I get the sounds when I select something but not a thing when I play CD's. I'm using an SBLive! 5.1 S/card. I take it the drivers must be there but why no response from the CD player?

Also cant find the Unix forum (thought I was in it now....)

There's an entire audio-focused distro called Agnula being put together.

Wow, this looks really cool, can't wait for that project to take shape!!!!
I don't play the guitar that much anymore but if it includes a multitrack recorder even a little like Cubase or Cakewalk I might start recording my stuff again  ;)

hey, re not hearing the stuff in kde, do check you have yer volumes turned up! it sounds daft but it caught me out a few times. run aumix and kmix to check. i know that sounds like not much help but if that;s the probkem then this solution's all you need!  :D

must be doing something wrong as I get the sounds when the windows close and when I play MP3's but nothing with the cd.....strange
