Arch64 sounds studio -OR- help get me out of FC3

Hey everybody,  It's been a while since I've been on the messageboards.  My computer died before I went on vacation, and on my return I decided to set up a Linux recording studio.  I decided to go with the Planet CCRMA version of FC3 so I could see what they consider to be "proper function" for their audio apps.
So I've pretty much got it, and I still hate RPMs.  I'd also like to take advantage of my 64-bitness, but since I haven't been around, I don't know how Arch 64 is going.  My rig:
Athlon 64 3000+
1GB dual channel DDR
NF4-SLI motherboard
Geforce 6600GT 128MB PCIe
100GB ATA WD HDD - OS
120GB SATA WD HDD - Music library
200GB SATA Samsung HDD - Recording
BenQ DVD-RW
RME HDSP9652
I'm using a Presonus DigiMAX 96k as mic preamps, with ADAT lightpipe into the HDSP9652.  I'm wondering if there are any people out there doing similar things on Arch64, and how it's going for them.  Questions:
1. Can I usually just recompile most Arch packages and have them work, or are those the exception?
2. Does anybody have Ardour up and running with the LADSPA plugins listed at the CCRMA site?  How about with RME hardware?
http://ccrma.stanford.edu/planetccrma/s … world.html
3. I see there's a wiki entry for installing Arch64, but there's also an install CD at www.arch64.org.  Should I just be able to install off the CD like I do the normal Arch CD?
If I get up and running, I'll be happy to maintain apps I use and I wouldn't mind using my computer as a compiling box for 64-bit stuff.  Apps I use (some better than others):
Ardour
HDSPConf
HDSPMixer
LADSPA
Rezound
JAMin
Freqtweak
Ceres3
Hydrogen
Anyway, any help would be appreciated.  I wouldn't mind that much just running i686 Arch for the time being.  I'm looking forward to being back in Arch again.

I'm in Arch again.  AaaaahHH!!! Thank God.  it's like, you can f8king tell it what to do, and it DOES IT!
Oh, my.  I am flush with the glory of Ardour working without any tweaking!  FLUSH!
No 64 bit yet, but soon to come.  WEEE!

  • [Intel] Need help getting more out of my prescott 2.4a (pt880neofsr)

    Hello all, first post here
    Anyways, I have be able to get my prescott 2.4a to 3.3ghz stable, with everything stock, except for memory timings set to manuel (3-3-3-8 200mhz, but running at 183fsb on micron chips, doing a manuel 3-3-3-8 i was able to get my system stable, the chips are rated for 3-3-3-8 200mhz)
    So far so good, but i was hoping to get more, like hitting the 200fsb barrier.
    Im running the 1.6 bios.  I tried adjesting the voltages on the cpu, but i got a no go, no boot.  I can't figure out what else it could be.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreceative. (like more cooling?)
    My system specs is as follows:
    Intel Prescott Pentium 4 2.4a @ 3.3ghz
    MSI PT880 Neo-FSR (with 1.6 bios)
    Enermax EG465P-VE 460watt powersupply +3.3v-35amp / +5v-35amp / +12v-33amp
    Western Digital 80gig 8mb cache
    9800pro flashed to XT speeds
    Audigy 1 using Audigy 2 driver set

    Thats's allready a nice overclock 
    Maybe if you get the temps lower, u might be able to squeese out a little more.
    Raising the vmem might help you get your memory to CAS 2,5 or even 2.

  • Need help getting people out of a time lapse

    Okay, this is what I want to do. I have a clip of three guys working on a graffiti artwork. Its 30 minutes long. I want to speed it to a time lapse, but I dont want to show the bodies of the three guys. So the final product would look like the graffiti forming by itself.
    The first thing I tried was to draw an animated 16-point garbage matte following the bodies while the layer below is a still frame of the final product. This will take me forever though. So I tried the time warp effect. I thought I could just blur out the bodies enough so that theyd just look like inconspicuous shadows moving around as the artwork forms. But rendering is a *****. I havent mastered the effect either. I couldnt figure out the proper settings so that the three guys would blur out enough so they wouldnt be too recognizable. (Ghosting doesnt really cut it either.)
    What would be a good idea to get this thing done?
    Really appreciate the help. Thanks!

    My suggestion would be to reshoot another project, but in time lapse using OnLocation. Figure out how long you want the clip to be, and from that how often you'll need to catch a frame. Say it works out to one frame every two minutes. So, every two minutes make sure the artists are out of frame.
    That's the only way I know of to really accomplish the desired end result.

  • Need help getting data out of Berkeley DB

    Hi All
    I have an old vrsion of Berkeley Db (about 5 years old I think) that we use at work for storing key value pairs. We use this to store ids for that data that we later load to a relational database. We have multiple files with key vaue pairs. One particular file is very large(11 GB) and has about 100million entries.
    We are trying to migrate the data from Berkeley DB to a relational database. I was able to get the entries out of most files but this large file is givng trouble.
    I can only get out about 26 million entries. I have tried Ruby and Perl to get the data out (our main application is in Ruby) and tried multiple approaches but all hit the limit at about 26.xx million records.
    If anybody has experienced similar thing and knows a way to get the data out, your help is highly appreciated.
    Thank
    Harsh D.

    Hi All
    This is for Berkeley DB version that is at least 5 years old. I do not know the exact verion and do not know how to find one. This is not for the Java Edition or the XML edition.
    Below is what I am doing in Ruby:
    db = nil
    options = { "set_pagesize" => 8 * 1024,
    "set_cachesize" => [0, 8024 * 1024, 0]}
    puts "starting to open db"
    db = BDB::Btree.open(ARGV[0], nil, 0, options)
    if(db.size < 1)
    puts "\nNothing to dump; #{ARGV[0]} is empty."
    end
    puts "progressing with the db"
    myoutput = ARGV[1]
    puts "allocating the output file #{myoutput}"
    f = File.open(myoutput,"w")
    i = 0
    iteration = 0
    puts "starting to iterate the db"
    db.each do |k, v|
    a = k.inspect
    b = v.inspect
    f.puts "#{a}|#{b}"
    i = i+1
    if (i>1000000)
    iteration = iteration + 1
    puts "iteration #{iteration}"
    i = 0
    end
    end
    This only outputs about 26.xx million records. I am sures there are more than 50 million entries in the database.
    I also tried some other approaches but nothing seems to work. I end up getting only 26.xx million entries in the output.
    In some case, I managed to get it to output more records, but after 26.xx million, everything is output as duplicate entries so they are of no use to me.
    The Ruby is 32 bit version. I tried this on Windows 7 (64 bit) and also on RedHat Linux 5 (64 bit version).
    Thanks

  • Need help getting information out of array and into text/object files

    Im having alot of trouble with this i have the classes for the array, text reader and writer, and object reader and writer mostly done. I originally had a getInfo method in my object and text classes to input the data needed, but that wasnt how the instructor wanted. So my question is how do i take the infomation in the array in class studentarray and send that information to the text and object classes? I have looked online for an example and cant seem to find one that looks like it would work. I am pretty sure what i need will be put in the class StudentArray
    here is requirements i havent figured out how to implement
    - read student records from a �text� file
    - write student records into a �text� file (new data after sorting)

  • Need help getting data out of a itemrenderer component

    I have a datagrid populated via a dataprovider (arrayCollection). No issue there
    I have a dateField Custom itemRenderer (as a component) and this is populated fine, so no issue there either.
    However I can't seem to find any way of getting the data out (it can be edited, so it is no longer the original data). I can get the original data, but not the new data.
    I can't use an event as there are hundreds of rows that I need to manipulate to write back to the database. I just want to get all the values as displayed in the datagrid.
    I just want to loop through the datagrid and pull out the data as entered in the itemrenderer component object. In debug mode I can see
    event --> itemrenderer --> [inherited] --> mycustomecomponent --> text. I just can't seem to get at it.
    Any Ideas. It's got to be simple and I am just missing it I guess.

    In your ItemRenderer, assign your data.yourDataFieldHere to the new value after editing is complete. This will allow you to then loop through the dataProvider in the main application and get all the values needed.
    function onEdit(evt:Event):void {
    data.yourDataField = evt.currentTarget.text; // Or use whatever property of the edited item you need here.

  • NEED HELP GETTING SOMETHING OUT OF MY DEAD IBOOK

    ok so ive had my beautiful ibook g4 for about 5 years, and about a week ago i sent it to get fixed cause it was acting weird and it was because my hard drive is absolutely dead. but that isnt my question... I didnt get a chance to back up my stuff and i dont really care about anything in there except some pictures... and I was wondering if you guys could give me options on what to do
    but i also have to tell you this:
    my ibook wont turn on.
    the little gray apple with the white background pops up and then 4 minutes later or so it just turns off immedietly.
    so I really dont know what to do...
    i did the hard drive test to see if it could react and nothing- and when i tried to reinstall mac os x, and put the option of keeping all the info i got the kernel attack.
    please help me!

    Go to a certified Apple Tech or Apple Store and have them extract the information from the HD to another source. They'll pull the drive, put it in an external housing and extract from there.

  • I have a cd stuck in my Macbook Pro. need help getting it out.

    so i was watching a movie, then i wanted to grab a bite to eat. i just pause the movie and closed my computer screen. then when i came back, the dvd did not want to play saying that "Supported Disc Not Available" and it would not eject when i hit the eject key button. NEED HELP ASAP

    Five ways to eject a stuck CD or DVD from the optical drive
    Ejecting the stuck disc can usually be done in one of the following ways:
      1. Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the
          left mouse button until the disc ejects.
      2. Press the Eject button on your keyboard.
      3. Click on the Eject button in the menubar.
      4. Press COMMAND-E.
      5. If none of the above work try this: Open the Terminal application in
          your Utilities folder. At the prompt enter or paste the following:
            /usr/bin/drutil eject
    If this fails then try this:
    Boot the computer into Single-user Mode. At the prompt enter the same command as used above. To restart the computer enter "reboot" at the prompt without quotes.

  • Helping getting ipod out of recovery mode

    i was updating my ipod touch to iOS 4.3 and it said there was an error at the end, and now my ipod is in recovery mode. itunes is telling me to restore it. i dont want to loose my data because if i restore i will loose everything. is there a way to save my settings???
    Message was edited by: ice Queam

    The first part of an update is that itunes makes a backup like it normally does during syncing. You can find the date of the backup by going to the Device tab in iTunes' Preferences. If other items that are not in the backup like music and video, all you have to do is to restore from backup and sync,

  • When i publish the movie to youtube, the sound gets cut out half way through.  help?

    I'm trying to publish a short movie to youtube.  It plays fine in the editing screen, but when I publish it, half way through, the sound cuts out on the video.  There's still some background music that's playing, but the voices get cut out.  I've tried republishing it in a different size and the sound cuts out at the exact same place.  Any suggestions?

  • Feedback howling – can I get rid of this using Sound Studio 2.2.4?

    I am making a short extract from the recording of a talk, using Sound Studio 2.2.4. I have managed to cut out the sounds of coughing and most of the other unwanted noises by working my way through the filters and trying out the ones that look promising, but I haven't been able to do anything about the feedback howling that can be heard in one particular section. Is it possible to get rid of this noise and retain the speech?
    Thank you.

    @dzfam02, I've had this same exact problem.  In my situation I wasn't using "Jam", I was using a different wireless mic, but everything you describe was the same for me. 
    Because I have an extensive history in the "old-school" systems (i.e. analog), as soon as I heard the hum I knew what it was.  It's almost always a cable of some kind allowing RF noise, or some other form of noise, into your system.  Usually, all you have to do is move around your cables, power bricks, lamp cords, or ANY other cable that has current running through it.  For me, it was a simple move of one cable just 6 inches to solve the problem. I have seen it take some rather drastic rearrangements to eliminate the hum.  Consider moving you computer around as well.  I have always found it strange that the introduction of a new piece of equipment can cause a situation where a seemingly non-related cable and/or equipment must be moved to eliminate the hum that was a result of the new equipment being brought in. 
    Things to live by:
    ALWAYS use high quality shielded cables.  NEVER lay too many cables too close together.  NEVER use gender changers to connect 2 shorter cables to make a longer one as the connection ALWAYS leaks signal AND allows offending signals (hum?) to be introduced.  Instead, use 1 continuous cable. 
    Hope this helps...
