Hi there, I'm new to all this Linux audio business and was wondering if I could get some help here. I got to know only yesterday that my Ubuntu 10.10, which I still use, uses Pulseaudio. Let me explain what I want to do: I want to plug in a mic into the microphone socket, and have that be mixed with a beat from Hydrogen. Then I want to cast this whole thing to the net (using icecast and ices). Also, I would like to have the REMOTE side play a beat, either from Hydrogen, or from anything else that they have (plugged into the Mic socket), and have that be transmitted to my side, so that a LOCAL vocalist can sing over the backing stuff. Besides that, I would like to also have a link between both sides using Ekiga, so that I can see the person at the other end, and hear them, but THAT audio is not to be recast using icecast, otherwise I guess I'll get terrible echoing. This is all that's coming to mind right now for the idea that I have, could someone please explain to me what it is I have to do? :) I myself am on Ubuntu 10.10, as well as Ubuntu Studio 11.10, but the laptop where all this is going to happen is new, ie. no OS installed yet. I have discs of Ubuntu 12.04 as well as Fedora 17, so I'll install whichever one you guys tell me to. I would prefer Fedora because Ubuntu has a bad habit of updating itself without asking, and if my audio or video starts skipping because the net link is saturated, I'll bloody KILL someone! :) Thanks for all your help. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
