ax | i'm trying to get an echo audiofire 4 to work with ubuntu studio 11.04 and it seems as though the new firewire stack might be causing me some trouble | 04:27 |
---|---|---|
ax | is it not possible to get the old stack on 11.04? | 04:27 |
holstein | ax: you could look at the kxstudio repos | 12:25 |
holstein | falk made some custom repos for jack1, not sure about the firewire stacks | 12:25 |
holstein | i can say there will be no easy way to step down | 12:26 |
holstein | i remember needing an older FW stack back in 9.x | 12:26 |
holstein | when i would try and just remove the current FW, the entire ubuntustudio-audio meta package would want to go away | 12:26 |
holstein | i can also say, theres no reason *not* to run 10.04 for audio | 12:27 |
ax | holstein: yeah, i was hoping to not have to move back to 10.4 just because it is a PITA and i like having the most up to date packages, but i guess 10.4 is LTS.. | 17:23 |
holstein | ax: i use the kxstudio ppa's for new packages in 10.04 | 20:30 |
holstein | i personally take the non-LTS releases as 'testing' releases | 20:30 |
ax | holstein: thanks for the info, i'll look into the ppa + 10.4 | 20:45 |
donteat_calamari | Does anyone know how to do simple edits of an mp3 file in linux without transcoding, like audacity does,to just cut certain parts out? I record songs from the stereo onto flash and want to make each mp3 a single song,but audacity imports it to audacity format then re encodes it upon export this is wasting electricity resources and possibly degrading quality. In other words: does anyone know... | 22:29 |
donteat_calamari | ...of a native mp3 editor, to just do crop and save? | 22:29 |
donteat_calamari | help | 22:36 |
donteat_calamari | please hep | 22:36 |
donteat_calamari | please help | 22:36 |
casey | Not possible afaik. MP3 is not an editable format. You should record to an editable format (e.g. lossless.) | 22:36 |
donteat_calamari | shit | 22:47 |
donteat_calamari | i guess i will just have to be quick with the start and stop button from now on | 22:47 |
holstein | making ogg's is easy | 22:49 |
holstein | those are easily editable | 22:49 |
holstein | audacity will always convert to its format though | 22:53 |
holstein | .aup's or whatever they are | 22:53 |
ax | but, afaik, ogg is a lossy format as well no? | 23:17 |
ax | ahh, i guess you just said.. it will get transcoded :) | 23:18 |
holstein | yeah... not sure what the issue is though | 23:18 |
