Wow!  I love this, I really do.

The "woo" vocal - is that actually a voice?

How did you achieve the scratches?  Were they put into the samples?
Added to the individual tracks before final mix?

For me, this is the new poster-boy for Free music and Free music
software.

Damn.  I was just about to settle for a few hours of making noises,
but now I don't want to because it won't sound as good as this.

Why are you even using alsaconf for a PCI device?  It's only needed for
old ISA stuff.  hotplug/udev/whatever should automagically load the
right driver for a PCI card on boot.

Does the PCM volume control in alsamixer work properly?  If so it's a
MythTV bug.

Lee,
   Sometimes I don't get where you are coming from with these strong
statements...

   There was no driver to be loaded since I hadn't built any drivers
when I built the kernel. As I said earlier, I didn't *know* what
driver to build. It's a new machine. I didn't recognize the hardware.
I didn't know what to do so I thought alsaconf would help me. There
was no indication for a new user of this NVidia hardware that the
NVidia HDA had anything at all to do with the Intel HDA. You might
think I'm stupid. I suppose I am. Sorry. It just wasn't clear to me
and I don't think it would be any clearer to most purely user types.
We reside in a lower place my friend.

   So, as I said earlier, it was my thought that alsaconf, which does
configure PCI devices quite fine thank you, would look at the PCI
device ID, build a new modprobe.conf entry, and in doing that it would
tell me what driver to build, albeit a bit indirectly. Unfortunately
it didn't work that way *until* I built the driver. At that point

Must be Demudi. I've been using Gnome with Fedora (and packages from
PlanetCCRMA and Livna that pretty much cover all bases in terms of music
and sound) for a long time and I've had no stability issues.

Very interesting.

For some reason, it reminds me of Hartmann Neuron:

Sorry, I just got back into town and was going through 1000s of emails,
and rattled that off too quickly.  I did not mean to be rude but
obviously I was.  Apologies.
