This is Steinway_IMIS soundfont, version 2.2.
ftp://musix.ourproject.org/pub/musix/sf2/Steinway_IMIS2.2
This version fixes the issue with loops. I hope this is the good one
and there are no more remaining major bugs.
Marcos is a little busy right now, so he asked me to make this fix. He
is thinking to make other improvements, so expect more updates soon.
Hello,
Does anyone know of a good plugin that will generate subharmonics?
I would like to put a little more low frequency "oomph" into my bass
track. Preferrable LADSPA, but VST would work, too.
Thanks for any help!

I'm starting to enjoy glitchy percussion sounds I'm hearing in a lot of computer music these days, and want to experiment with those.
I've asked around about how people are making these sounds, and the answers I get are "Battery", "Redrum", and "Reason". All firmly wedged closed and proprietary. of course.
Are there any good free tools for making glitchy drum sounds, which do not require the use of WINE? If the answer to that is "SC/CSound/PD/ChucK", that's fantastic, can anyone point me to some particularly good source code or patches for glitchy drums in those languages that I could start experimenting with?
Thanks.

Hello,

Presonus Firebox sound card, I am thinking about buy an ExpressCard. But I
an not an expert. So I would like some advices choosing a good chip.
Seeking on the Internet I have found some ExpressCard with Texas Instruments
chips or belkin chip... Are they good ones ?
Thanks for your help

Hi folks,
The following has nothing to do with audio, or even with Linux per se,
but I think of you as the right sort of people to be interested in
something like this :-) Feel free to write me off-list and we can take
the discussion elsewhere.
I've been programming professionally for about 8 years. I'm
self-taught. Lately I've been wishing I had a better grasp of computer
science fundamentals, but I can't afford the time or money to attend a
degree program. But hey, MIT has most of their academic materials
online for free - including textbooks, class notes, and lecture
videos!
The problem with doing it alone in my spare time is that there are too
many other things competing for my attention. I think it would help a
lot to have an online discussion group - a group that commits to
finish* a given course in a certain number of weeks, and can help each
other stay motivated, and help each other with difficult concepts,
etc. By "finish" I mean: watch every lecture, read the texts, and
complete every assignment.
Is anybody else interested in something like that?
I'd propose to start at the beginning, with the introductory scheme
course:
http://ocw.mit.edu/OcwWeb/Electrical-Engineering-and-Computer-Science/6-001…
(btw, I got this idea from hearing about some people doing something similar
with Knuth's "Art of Computer Programming" books. but of course now I
can't find a relevant link.)

Hi everyone,
Qsynth 0.3.0 is now out for you to try and guess what? This marks the
point of no return to the aging Qt3 framework. Yes, Qt4 migration was
complete.
Hints from the change-log might be shallow, but nevertheless:
- Qt4 migration has comenced and is now complete. Care must be taken
with this new configuration file and location: this release starts a new
one from scratch and won't reuse any of the previous existing ones,
although cut and paste might help if you know what you'll be doing :)
- Application icon is now installed to ${prefix}/share/pixmaps;
application desktop entry file is now included in installation; spec
file (RPM) is now a bit more openSUSE compliant; initial debianization.
- Default font option names were adjusted to "Sans Serif" and
"Monospace", wherever available.
- The "keep child windows always on top" option is not set as default
anymore, because window focus behavior gets tricky on some desktop
environments (eg. Mac OS X, Gnome).
- Autoconf (configure) scripting gets an update.
Good grief. All this is rteadily available from the usual place:
http://qsynth.sourceforge.nethttp://sourceforge.net/projects/qsynth
Cheers && Enjoy &

There was a thread on this a while back, the need for opensource or
free/minimal cost alternatives to Sibelius and such on Linux.
One can run Finale Notepad or various lower cost upgrades using Wine and this
may be the best alternative if one can get the MIDI and printing working this
way.
For lack of a handy staffbook--and it is easier to simply grab a staffbook, a
extra fine pen and a typex stick--I tried what I have on my Debian Sid box:
Scoring:
Notedit--KDE's scoring program will get the job done. Most functionality is
there. Chord entry is very awkward and the ui needs more toolbar items. But
it works and will export to most everything needed including abc which opens
the door to many Windows and Linux programs that can print score, Lilypond,
MusicTex and MusicML.
Canorus--successor to Notedit. Too early for this one.
Denemo--GUI for Lilypond. Too early for this one as well. Nice start but had
to go back to Notedit to continue.
Musescore/mscore--new boy on the block. Coming along nicely and will soon be
the best around. Still work to be done, text field editing is nigh-impossible
but this is the alternative to Finale and Sibelius to watch. Imported MusicML
from Noteedit.
MIDI keyboard to any of these is precarious at best.
For printing (engraving when doing music):
Lilypond--works well with its peculiarities. Not enough control of formatting
when exporting from noteedit, et al. Denemo not ready so need to know its
markup language to really use it well. It is supposed to be the standard.
MusixTex--works nearly as well as Lilypond but does not handle UTF8, foreign
characters out of the box.
Musescore--one when sets the formatting parameters (not defaulted properly)
produces very nice results. Its scoring is WYSIWYG once the formatting params
are set up. Again, the one to watch.
Hi,
Does anyone know of a LADSPA or DSSI plugin for granular synthesis. It
needs to be capable of using a user-defined wavetable or soundfile as a
source for grain data.
Thanks,
Jamie

Hi all,
I discovered that travelling is more fun if my own music is in my ears. So I
decided (and my wife approved) to buy a mobile player. As big parts of my
music collection are oggs and I am to audiophile to reconvert them to mp3, I
am searching for a mobile player that can do ogg as well as mp3 (I don't give
anything for wma, aac or other proprietary stuff).
I like the way Apple makes things just work. If the Ipod nano played ogg I
would march into the next local supermarket that has them on discount
currently.
Who has experience with Linux on the Ipod (normal one without
nano/shuffle/etc...)? Is it stable and usable?
Which other players would you recommend for their abilities and usability?
Have a nice weekend,
Arnold

Hello!
What would be the command line magic to get stereo wav mixed to mono and
left channel inverted before the mixdown?
Background:
I have recorded vocals with M-Audio Microtrack 24/96 (portable recorder)
and I've used mic cable that has one xlr connector to the mic and two mono
plugs to the recorder, which records stereo.
To get the final mono, I have to invert one of the channels and mix it
with the other. This way all the errors on the signal get canceled.
I've done this with audacity, but it's rather lengthy operation if I have
several files to convert.
Tommi
