Greetings all,
I wanted to share with you my latest Linux-based and Linuxaudio.org-related project that has been sucking up most of my time over the past year or so to the point it seemed as if I have disappeared off the face of the Earth. Needless to mention it continues to alter my sleeping/eating patterns with unprecedented aptitude and with no end in sight ;-). http://l2ork.music.vt.edu/ Best wishes, Ivica Ico Bukvic, D.M.A. Composition, Music Technology Director, DISIS Interactive Sound & Intermedia Studio Assistant Co-Director, CCTAD CHCI, CS, and Art (by courtesy) Virginia Tech Dept. of Music - 0240 Blacksburg, VA 24061 (540) 231-6139 (540) 231-5034 (fax) ico@... http://www.music.vt.edu/faculty/bukvic/ _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@... http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user |

It says something about a linux laptop orchestra. I only encountered laptop orchestras while searching for tutorials to build cheap sphere speakers and encountered the slork. I would like to hear some of them live. Are there any in germany? Or would some of the existing one have the money to do a group visit to the next lac?

The videos are linked from the L2ork page (see media->videos). You can also go for the direct link at http://www.youtube.com/vtdisis As for upcoming LAC, I am considering (barring any unexpected developments) proposing bringing the whole group there. Naturally, there are a million of hurdles to be overcome, including funding before that can become a reality. FWIW, speakers we built are considerably cheaper than the alterantives, yet sound amazingly well based on the preliminary tests we ran. As a matter of fact our entire setup including laptop, soundcard, speaker, cables, and wiimote/nunchuk runs under $750/seat, with speakers being around $250. Obviously, time to build one is not factored into this.

After spending quite some time going through the links that you've sent us, I'm still clueless about what L2Ork is. Here's the problem: The videos are essentially about speakers, which are hardware, but 1 of the 'L's in L2Ork stands for Linux, which is an OS. What I'm interested in (and I assume others on this list, too) is, what applications are used to generate the instrument sounds in Linux? Are these existing applications? Samplers? Synths? Or have you come up with something entirely new? Does it run on Jack? If so, how do you ensure robustness? These are just the first few of the pressing questions which remain unanswered after going through your links. It's possible that all this info is there, but I've somehow missed it (and so has Philipp). If so, I'd request you to take our limited info-gleaning abilities into account while providing more detailed information. Wishing L2Ork all the best!

The "What is L2ork?" link on their website has some more explanation.
The most succinct explanation is in their faq: [quote] What is L2Ork? L2Ork stands for Virginia Tech DISIS Linux Laptop Orchestra, World’s first orchestra of its kind built on Linux. [/quote] Though I agree that to those who've never heard of a laptop orchestra, that may not be so illuminating. For that, the PLOrk (Princeton Laptop Orchestra) site (http://plork.cs.princeton.edu/bio.html) has a bit more of an explanation. Basically, the idea is to develop the technologies (hardware + software), skills, repertoire, etc to enable an ensemble of laptops/players to perform together, coordinating and interacting with each other with both networking tech and musician-type skills. For generating sound, PLOrk (the first laptop orchestra) i believe mainly uses ChucK (Ge Wang developed ChucK with Perry Cook at the Princeton Sound Lab, the same group that started PLOrk). I saw somewhere on the L2Ork site that they are starting out by using Pd. It would be interesting to see more behind-the-scenes info on the whole setup. Basically the reason that there's all the stuff about hardware and also linux is just that they are doing both -- setting up a bunch of computers with linux audio tuned to their needs, and building a bunch of hardware to go with it (e.g. the special speakers (each computer has its own speaker unit). -Alex On Fri, Oct 23, 2009 at 11:18 PM, Guru Prasad B.

I agree that parts of the site are incomplete, mainly because the site is
still growing (just as we are through our maiden L2Ork voyage that began this fall), so some confusion is naturally warranted. That said, Alex has described it very well. L2Ork basically is a laptop orchestra that uses Linux rather than Mac platform (as is the case with PLOrk and SLOrk), and as such is as far as I know World's first laptop orchestra using Linux. Since we are still in early stages of development, a lot of things are up in the air. As of right now what I can divulge about the project is following: HARDWARE: Apart from homebrew speakers, we are using MSI Wind netbooks, wiimotes and nunchuk as main sources of input (in addition to obviously keyboard and mousepad), UA-1G soundcards (basically rebranded UA-1EXs under Cakewalk-Edirol brand). The speakers have built-in preamps and allow easy exchange of discrete 6-channel and mono setup using two different types of cables (one is 6-pin XLR to 6 mono TSs, the other is 6-ping XLR to RCA). We currently do not use balanced audio feeds as each system is self-enclosed and requires minimal cable lengths. As a result, we've encountered no ground loop issues and/or similar major degradations in audio fidelity. Speakers have theoretical range of 50Hz-30KHz. That said, 50Hz sounds rather weak so we also supplement our setup with subs. Theoretical peak amp power of the three embedded amps is 15 Watts per channel, while each speaker cone peak amp power is 25 Watts. We've retrofitted amps to improve sound fidelity (based on online docs for the Dayton DTA-1 class amps). For more info on this one please see online videos. Regarding the actual loudness, suffice to say to run these at maximum possible strength without distortion for prolonged periods of time will undoubtedly result in hearing loss. SOFTWARE: We use modified version of Ubuntu 9.04. Rather than issuing tons of various scripts/patches, we maintain an in-house disk image of the entire HD. This thing should be available soon for download for those who wish to burn their bandwidth :-). This is mainly because we don't have enough man hours to actually build user-friendly patch system for the amounts of updates we issue on a weekly basis. At some point we may opt for a better way of packaging these. Main audio platform for the time being is a modified version of Pd. Some of the changes to Pd have been already shared with the Pd community, others will become available once we work out the kinks. ART: Currently, most of our efforts revolve around harnessing the power of hand gestures through wiimotes and nunchuk, in conjunction with keyboard and mousepad. Likewise, we are actively exploring ways of interconnecting the ensemble (e.g. imagine one performer generating a note and by doing so also altering someone else's instrument properties, etc.) through as set of custom-built monitoring tools (using Pd). I understand that this does not tell you a lot about art and this is mainly because we are still in the process of learning and discovering... I'll gladly share more as we reach new milestones. MISCELLANEA We will try to post more video footage as we find time to do so. Right now our priority is on the development/production/performance. That said, I am hoping to post more in the coming weeks. As of right now, footage mainly focuses on the toughest piece of the puzzle--the speakers. Down the road, we will provide more details on other, more straightforward aspects as well. So much for now. Thanks all for your replies. These are all very good comments that will help us greatly improve the site content, particularly FAQ section. Best wishes, Ico > -----Original Message----- > From: linux-audio-user-bounces@...

One of the projects on my plate for the coming week is to revisit the site and rework the formatting to address feedback we've gotten so far, namely partitioning about page into about and history components. Speaking of L2Ork in action, last week at TEDxMidAtlantic I just showed the first public footage of a recent rehearsal. We should be posting this video hopefully soon on YouTube. In the meantime, please feel free to go to tedxmidatlantic.com and check it out there.

I can't watch the video here:
http://tedxmidatlantic.com/live/ Something wrong with embedded flash (always flash...) in that website (usually I don't have problem with flash). I'll wait for the one in Youtube.

Forgot to mention. I did some days ago because I've been checking that youtube channel.
Nice music, really nice sounds. And I would like to know what are you doing with your wiimotes and what are they controlling. Regards. 2009/11/11 Ivica Ico Bukvic <ico@...>
