-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I've discovered the great jackminimix, and that means I have to start messing around with OSC. Is there an OSC interactive interpreter anywhere? sendOSC does half of it, dumpOSC does the other half, but they can't run at the same time on the same socket! Which makes them kind of useless when a synth or other OSC device is expecting to reply to the socket from which the packet was received. What I'm basically looking for is a program that combines sendOSC and dumpOSC into one interactive, readline-enabled thang. I vaguely remember coming across something like an "OSC shell", that thinly-wrapped libOSC using python or perl (IIRC), but I don't remember where it was and I can't seem to find it anymore. I suppose it wouldn't be too hard to write something like that, but I can't believe it hasn't already been done. - -ken -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFHDuqqe8HF+6xeOIcRAhCaAKCZy9VSi6Ruq6cbZUeX+yQAmFLhrACeM9RV uecGDvCb0kYGFZCzD2hiPZI= =D5P4 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

[LAU] VU meter when using Audacity

by Kevin Cosgrove

Hiya, The meters in audacity are OK. But, I'd like a bigger, maybe external to audacity, VU meter, and it'd be nice if it looked like a traditional VU meter. Anyone know of such a beast? Thanks.... -- Kevin

[LAU] Alsa Modular Synth - missing ladspa plugins on miniams

by Bill Allen

Hi, I'm upgrading an ancient music box. I've been using an old version of ams. One of my favorite setups is miniams found in the instruments directory. When I try to load it in a more modern distro (e.g. ubuntu studio), I'm finding that I'm missing G2reverb and Saw-VCO. Both seem to have been developed by Fons Andriaensen so I'm surprised they're not included. I tried to find the sources, but failed. Any clues as to getting this nice preset to work? Regards, Bill

[LAU] Sync'ing a ProTools studio with a Linux studio

by Ken Restivo

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 My drummer has a ProTools-based Mac studio. He records our band's sessions. Right now I give him a stereo feed from my laptop, because that's all my audio hardware does, and he doesn't have a whole lot of tracks left after that anyway. Giving him a stereo feed is problematic. My synths are all glorped together onto one stereo track. He's getting audio, not MIDI, so if there are fsck-up's in my playing-- or, more likely, in my submix levels--, it's not like I can just jump into Rosegarden or seq24 and fix it, as I do at home. He's a really good engineer, and I'd rather let him determine levels than just give him an imperfect mix of several synths and samples. So I'm wondering: is there any way to sync up my linux sequencers/DAWs/loopers with his ProTools setup? What first occurred to me, was possibly having him send MTC, then having some linux program slave to MTC but be a JACK transport master at the same time. Thus, he can control the vertical, he can control the horizontal, but I can save and edit as needed. I can then edit MIDI or audio, export each synth as separate WAV files, and he can pull them into ProTools and do final mixing. Any thoughts on whether this is feasible? Is this the right way to approach it? Anyone have any success stories from a similar setup? Thanks. - -ken -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFHDXqPe8HF+6xeOIcRAmqTAKCmWRdNaNJNS44QoVs9ufL6kdeEKQCgkGbb I+eyX1YXfK8NHSM1iRvXUOw= =XADX -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

hello, > Florin Andrei wrote: > > I'm having trouble finding a good source of heavy > metal guitar sounds on > > Linux. Any suggestions? I think you can inject your sound in some effects like reverb and distorsion combinated, may be a phaser too ? a flanger ?... as you like ... you can use ladspa plugin for that, for the distorsion, I prefer use a pre-amp, and I put the pitch up to get temperature, you can put several preamp one after the other, valve emulation, or not ... I use to put the bass up, and the high a little bit down, try several combination, you can find something good on that way... bye _____________________________________________________________________________ Ne gardez plus qu'une seule adresse mail !

[LAU] MIDI fan-out daemon

by Ken Restivo

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 For almost a year, I've been looking for a MIDI fan-out box: a simple and rock-solid reliable daemon that will run in RT, and take in a stream of MIDI, and fan it out to 16 virtual output ports, one for each channel. I tried midirgui and qmidiroute. They are nice, and flexible, but I don't want flexible, I don't want a GUI, I want very lightweight daemon that will fan out my MIDI controller's output onto 16 virtual ports. I also tried to write this in a higher-level language: ChucK and SC won't run on my 64-bit system, and PD doesn't seem to have any facility to let me route streams out different virtual ports. Python uses the RTMIDI library, which is pretty limited and doesn't seem to let me open multiple virtual ports. Plus all of the above are more heavyweight than I want. So I'm going to write this in C. I've looked at some simple ALSA code, as well as the code of midirgui and qmidiroute. The ALSA API is kind of weird-looking, but I think I have everything I need in order to figure out how to get it to do what I want. My question is this: what's the magic incantation to get the permissions from the kernel to make the daemon run in RT mode? I suppose I could just "sudo chrt" on it after I run it, but most apps seem to find a way to get RT priorities on their own, where is that code? Finally, looking forward to the future: I haven't yet experimented with the wonders of jackd 0.107's -X flag, but, would it be possible/easier for me to write this using JACK MIDI instead of ALSA? I'm on jackd 0.103 now. Would -X give me outputs on the ALSA side for any ports I open on the JACK MIDI side? If it does, then I could use JACK MIDI to wrap ALSA and do the RT part for me too, which might be attractive. Thanks. - -ken -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFHDokTe8HF+6xeOIcRAuaHAJ90mvPojQ3kt07oJLE754PVlohBkgCggJk0 Yk0RjNTnSsdLyP6WXIQfnGY= =US51 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
