RC (Inguz etc.)

[Themis]

A few weeks ago, I didn't manage to make Inguz work correctly on a 7.5
SB3 menu entries worked, but webUI was broken.

Michael,

The reason I advocate the hardware solution is that it is totally
transparent on the operation of the Transporter.

Any software solution (ie. processing on the server) will disable FF/RW.

The other issue is cost. And by "cost", I don't just mean monetary cost.
I am self-employed, work from home, and have 5 kids. I value my time. I
don't want to spend it messing around getting a software solution
working. My DEQ2496 cost < £100, which is less than two hours of my
professional time, so to me it was a no brainer.

Robin,

Working with SPDIF will introduce jitter.
Also (or same), once I for curiosity fed music into SPDIF digital input of Transporter, and result was far worse then when using normally through Ethernet jack.

I have a friend working with DEQ (successfully, but he has separate DAC and not using Transporter), it might be the solution, might be not. I already have few boxes around the house...

At the moment, I just want to play with Inguz a bit, understand what DRC is about, then I will see.

I'm not self-employed, I have 3-4 hours every day (well, except when kids do not bother me :-) ) and more on weekends. I even offered help for Squeeze team to optimize Transporter code..

Themis,
indeed I did not manage to get web UI working, but I did not try hard.
Inguz XML-based files are very simple and can be edited manually, or using Transporter's remote

Is it possible to use Transporter with DEQ2496 in a loop as

Transporter (AES/EBU Digital Out) -> DEQ2496 (AES/EBU Digital Out) -> Transporter ?

Does it work well?
Transporter actually needs to decode the input stream via Ethernet, send it via AES/EBU, receive it via AES/EBU and only then feed into its DAC and analog stage..

/facepalm

Michael,

That's *exactly* what I have been suggesting you try.

The DEQ2496 only has optical and AES/EBU digital connections - I use
AES/EBU with a couple of bog standard balanced microphone cables.

It works well for me.

Ssshhhh! its a secret. AES/EBU was designed to use bog standard
microphone cables for use in professional studios. There is no need for
megadollar interconnects.

I probably have 30 suitable cables in lengths from 3 feet to 50 feet in
my basement/studio.

How do I activate this mode? Actually, Transporter must work with both Ethernet and AES/EBU inputs in parallel!

[doudou58]

well it feels like I have half installed it!
I can see an EQ icon in the Web UI but clicking it produces a 404 (page not found) error.
My filetypes have all been changed to Inguzdsp and Inguzdsp is being invoked - files still play OK.
I think my attempt to manually install the plugin have not worked. It's been a long time since I had to manually install a plugin - I've probably not put it in the correct directory for 7.5...
Michael (or anyone!) - does this look correct to you?

up ! idem for me, thanks
I think that a path should not be ok in the file Plugin.pm, but it's works correctly

Sorry, Phil
I did not see your reply hidden on the previous page.
Yes, the web is broken (and I did not want much to fix it..)
But the navigation from the device works OK (after the fixes I posted)
