Re: [campcaster-support] sound card issues
  • Hi,

    Regarding the Mackie card, maybe the ffado.org project provides the
    correct driver for you. They list some Mackie cards here:

    Good luck!

    > i started off with one question and my topic has now spread to various
    parts - as i don't expect someone to go through the whole list - an answer
    to A) would be really appreciated - and if anyone else is able to clear up
    the others - again would really appreciate it. <



    I am looking to run an internet station - and as such- using full
    automation mode but I appear to have a couple of issues that i'd be
    grateful if someone was able to answer:

    a) i have a Mackie Onyx firewire external soundcard and campcaster/ ubuntu
    is unable to recognise it - am trying to work through this - but not very
    technical minded!!!

    b) i want to be able to set up an hourly station clock that will allow for
    eg: top hour ident followed by 2 songs followed by presenter link 1 song
    to advert etc etc is this possible and easy to do with campcaster -
    because of full automation - i will need to automate 24 hours/ 7 days per
    week - is there a user friendly way to do this?

    c) because i have just installed i have not really had a chance to feel my
    way through - but can't see much about the automation features (if any)
    that this has.

    i have used automated software before which was simple to use in that: you
    set up your playlist perimeters - the software then slotted the relevant
    songs and adverts into the correct places - sorting out all the timings -
    so that the top of the hour and any other essential markers were met - ie:
    you may want a news bulletin to come in at :30 of each hour - it would
    also leave spaces for the presenter to record their links directly into
    the system (at pre-determined points)

    d) does campcaster allow you to position links over songs: ie: when the
    song is coming to end - you can insert a vocal link over the end of the
    song whilst fading in another song/music bed - so that it sounds live?

    I realise it is still in early development and that the automation that i
    am talking about is quite complicated and takes a long time to develop -
    but i wasn't sure if it was built in to campcaster or whether there are
    add-ins etc?

    Thanks its a great system.
