| |
Hello everyone !
I'm happy to announce the newly created Linux-Audio-User (LAU) mailing list. It is intended to provide a forum for people using Linux for audio editing, composition, MIDI sequencing etc.
Since the old Linux-Sound list has apparently gone into oblivion when the vger.rutgers.edu machine died, some folks on the Linux-Audio-Dev list felt that it might be time to start a new one especially for users.
On LAU, we'd like to talk about:
* which application is best suited for a particular job * how apps can be made to work together * how to tune your system for low latency * how to get the best audio quality out of your system * sharing tips & tricks for audio editing/synthesis/recording, etc. * how you use your linux box as a guitar FX rack/P.A. equalizer/ line delay/younameit * record release announcements "made with Linux" * announcements for new applications and/or updates * streaming media * audio encoding * ....
We suggest not to post driver issues and very basic "my hardware does not play sounds" questions. There is no better place for this than alsa-user.
There are many different lists with audio subjects, but most are project-specific or centered around one special tool (like the Common Music or Csound lists). LAU is intended to be a common exchange point for *all* audio users (although it remains a good idea to follow the mailing list of your favourite programs as well).
Another goal is being close to the application developers. Many software authors and contributors to the Linux-Audio-Dev list lurk on LAU, ready to listen to users' woes and wishes :)

This site also has a searchable list archive, news, infos and links to many audio-related sites.
Thanks for your time,
yours sincerely
