mp3 import for sweep -- please test :)
by Conrad Parker 14 Oct '02

14 Oct '02

Hi, I've just coded up some mp3 importing to sweep using libmad, so if you want to throw scrubby at your old mp3 collection, now's your chance. mad people: sweep is a Linux/BSD sound editor with vinyly scrubbing, and its fun to dj with; more info at http://sweep.sourceforge.net/ this is a prerelese for all ye elite hackers, this probably needs to be tweaked a little before its unleashed (later this week ?!) so, please test it till your speakers explode and if it breaks please help fix it (eg. show how to reproduce it, supply the file, or even fix the code): http://www.metadecks.org/software/sweep/download/sweep-0.5.7-mad1.tar.gz otherwise, just go crazy with it. Seems to be working ok here so please give it a whirl. non-mad ppl: you need libmad libs and headers (libmad-devel) installed, otherwise the configure script will simply not include mp3 support ... if libmad isn't in your distro it's at: http://www.mars.org/home/rob/proj/mpeg/ enjoy :) Conrad.

just installed latest ver of MAD

i don't think my winamp (2.8) is using the mad plugin. i've deleted the in_mp3.dll file, i've changed the MP31, MP32, MP3 but when i change to 32bit in the mad plugin i still can play mp3s, and that shouldn't work caus i have a shitty built-in soundcard. i've also tried to 'channels' to 'right' only, but still playin in both speakers. how can i see for sure that MAD is used? Regards Markus Sweden

Very good card but quite expensive. I just discovered OPTOplay in http://www.audiotrak.net/eng/index.html The web page says: "suggested US retail price (net): $69.00 US" which is equivalent to 71.5 euros... All I can say is "whoa!!!" (now rushing to search online shops!!!) If any MAD-user knows an even cheaper 24 bit solution, please inform us - it seems that these new USB devices are the future of digital audio "cards". I expect that costs for these gadgets will reduce dramatically since there is no PCI bridge chip involved, no big PCB etc - just the DSP chip, audio stream to serial data converters and plastic parts.

I don't know if this is inappropriate for the mailing list but since I'm not affiliated w/ the company I think it's a good service for the MAD users. I just bought this little gizmo and am currently testing it w/ the latest MAD plugin and the out_wav from http://www.blorp.com/~peter/ it works like a charm w/ 24bit output and the sound is awesome. it also comes w/ the ASIO low-latency USB audio driver from www.usbaudio.com . I can't wait to connect it to my headphone amp at home and try it w/ my Grados :-)) for all of you in northern america you can use the coupon at www.tracertek.com . for more info http://egosys.net/1-pro/eng/product/u24/u24.html ciao, g. Waveterminal U2A 24 bit USB Sound Module Now Shipping. There has been quite a bit of pent up demand for this product. It was initially scheduled to ship in January and much like all engineers, they missed by just a tiny bit. But the wait is certainly worth it. This high quality USB device will deliver the great USB portable audio at only $239. We had advertised this unit at $219 before we knew the real pricing, so as a special bonus to our newsletter readers, you can now order this product for $20 off at $219 by simply going to our store by July 1, 2002 and using this coupon when you place the order. The U2A is at http://store.yahoo.com/tracertek/wavu24comsoo.html and the coupon number is "newsu2a101".

Re: Vortex2 and >16 bits playback
by Unorthodox Behaviour 25 May '02

I don't know what your soundard DSP chip is, but I have a Hercules/Guillemot Game Theatre XP which features 20 bit playback. Outwave.dll works for me in both normal and alternate settings for 24 bits, that is I am able to listen to Line Out. So I guess that in my case the 24 bits MAD sends are accepted by the soundcard, processed somehow and outputted. However, I cannot tell whether what I hear is 20 bits, or even the 24 bits downsampled to 16 (!!). So far, nobody I asked could find me a procedure without using an oscilloscope to find out what the real output is. So I'm afraid that even if you manage to get sound out of winamp+MAD to the digital outputs, you won't have any means knowing whether this output is 16, 20 or 24 bits. Perhaps some experts can enlighten us ? In any case I'd recommend mailing Peter Pawlowski - he should know whether his plugin is compatible to your card. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Vortex2 and >16 bits playback
by kis＠aha.ru 23 May '02

23 May '02

Hello, I've read all the mailing list archive, and noticed that some people found out how to use MAD at 24 bits (with effective 20) on Vortex2-based cards. But I see no exact instruction on how to do it... My setup: WinAmp 2.80 MAD 0.14.2b out_wave.dll v. 1.03 from Peter Pawlowski Windows 98 SE Aureal SQ Digital (Vortex2 chip, similar to SQ2500, but with optical S/PDIF output) Drivers ver. 4.06.2050 S/PDIF is turned on (actually, I listen via an external DAC) AFAIK there is no way to use WDM driver under Windows 98SE (or at least it is not recommended). When I try to use MAD with 24 bits resolution, I get an error message from the out_wave that this PCM format (44100 Hz, 24 bits, 2 channels) is not supported. So what? How did you manage to work it out? Thanks in advance, Konstantin
