Revision as of 21:19, 16 June 2010
(1.) Topics marked as "optional" will be completed as time permits, during project weeks 9, 10, and 11. See the proposed schedule for details.
(2.) Where possible, I will avoid replication of material by referring to existing Fedora Project documentation.
System Tasks
- Understanding Sound Cards
- What Is a "Sound Card?"
- How Do I Find Information about my audio interface? (optional)
- How Do I Find Information about my MIDI interface? (optional)
- How Do I Know Which Input/Output Port to Use?
- Understanding Sound Servers
- What a Sound Server Is
- Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA)
- What ALSA Is, and Why It Exists
- PulseAudio
- JACK Audio Connection Kit
- Phonon
- What Phonon Is, and Why It Exists
- Knowing When to Use Phonon
- Planet CCRMA at Home
- What Planet CCRMA Is, and Why It Exists
- Knowing Whether You Should Use Planet CCRMA (including risks & benefits of third-party repositories)
- Using Planet CCRMA Software
- Optimizing the Linux Kernel for Audio Applications (optional, but highly desired - at least CCRMA)
- What Is a Realtime Kernel? (including "What is processor scheduling?")
- Using a Pre-built Realtime Kernel from Planet CCRMA (including "Planet CCRMA's kernels may be older than Fedora's")
- Building Your Own Audio-Optimized Kernel (of course, with appropriate disclaimers)
- Other Possible Optimizations (this will primarily be the removal of unused device drivers)
Audio Tasks
- Recording
- Synthesizers and Sequencers
- SuperCollider
- FluidSynth
- Qtractor
- Rosegarden
- Typesetting
- Aural Skills Training
- GNU Solfege
- I haven't used this in years, and it has changed quite a lot. I'll have to re-learn the software, then decide what to do.
- GNU Solfege
- Webcasting (highly optional - would make a great addition)
- Darkice or Darksnow
- Icecast Server
- If I end up covering these applications, tutorial topics can be decided later.
