ratbagradio Posted August 11, 2007 Report Share Posted August 11, 2007 I use and prefer Feisty Fawn -- the latest Linux release on the Ubuntu distro. It is on the desktop that I do my audio edits -- on AUDACITY.But...I have to use SonicStage on another machine that is networked to my Ubuntu computer. While I used to use Wubi for my windows interface with Ubuntu (on the same pc) I was wondering if anyone deals the same way with their files?I upload from my HiMD and convert the files to WAV on the Windows computer (running Vista)Then I use the netrrok to transfer the WAV files to my Ubuntru desktop.Can anyone think of shortcuts as it takes a while for WAV files to be transferred across this network as i cannot access the WAV files directly through AUDACITY.I'm running Samba as my network helper...My HiMD is MZ NH700 -which I gather is not suitable to be accessed through a WINE rework.

KrazyIvan Posted August 11, 2007 Report Share Posted August 11, 2007 Someone was able to get SS to work under WINE but I cannot remember who it was. The thread is here somewhere. Maybe some of the other linux users remember who it was? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ratbagradio Posted August 11, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2007 That's why we have a search function (Although the results with SS on WINE seem to be mixed)i know that. I've done my homework and I doubt thats it applies to my model. So I'm looking for suggested work arounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrazyIvan Posted August 12, 2007 Report Share Posted August 12, 2007 You could always record real time from the Hi-MD headphone out to a line in on the Linux box. That's a way around it. Seriously, SS is so proprietary it is not even funny. It is going to take Sony themselves to make a version that would work with Linux. We all know that is never going to happen. Maybe transferring them on a USB thumb drive would be faster? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. I thought about that . But that defeats the point of the exercise as in the process I pick up the sound floor on the computer and end up with a noiser recording of less quality than MD straight to WAV.Maybe transferring them on a USB thumb drive would be faster?Voila! Yes Thats' the option that makes the most sense given the time factor. I should also edit on the HiMD too before I upload my audio-- get rid of the rubbish that way.
