Ravenna client for Linux (pulseaudio or jack)

Postby antoszka » Sun Aug 16, 2015 21:11

This is a question/suggestion -- since a native Linux Ravenna implementation already exists in the form of the HAPI/HORUS firmware, would it be very hard to create a desktop client that speaks to pulseaudio and/or jack(d)? I can think of many scenarios, where such a thing would be very welcome, a of lot electronically composed and performed music (especially in the fields of live electronics, algorithmic composition and related research) is done on Linux.

Being able to directly connect a Linux system to a Ravenna router/network would be tremendously empowering and allow penetration of the technology into new areas.

Is there something new about this good idea?
I heard somewhere that merging developped an ALSA/AES67 VSC.
Is it true?

I don't think it's true, we would have heard something by now.

Horus and Hapi are based on a FPGA implementation. There are not any ALSA drivers in these devices.

This said, we are working on an AES67 ALSA driver and we are close to finalize. There will be an annoucement once finished.
In the meantime, if you are interrested, you can contact us at aes67[at]mergingdotcom
