Steinway_IMIS2.2 soundfont (no loops fix)

by Roberto Gordo Saez

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.

[linux-audio-user] Sub-harmonic generator? (LADSPA or VST)

by Tim Howard

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! -TimH

[ANN] TapStart 0.1 released

by Arnold Krille

Hi all, following a basic rule for open source project "publish early and often" I release the very first (but quite feature-rich) version of TapStart to the public. TapStart is a basic tempo-measurement where you tap some beats and get the (averaged) tempo displayed. But there is more to it: - TapStart also updates the jack-tempo (if a running jack was found during startup) and can even start the jack transport after a defined number of taps. This is implemented for using this thing in jam-sessions to get a click/drum-computer to play in a tempo not known before. - TapStart can also send OSC-messages with the tempo/delay-value as argument to any gives host and path. You can find more information on its page at http://www.arnoldarts.de/drupal/?q=TapStart ofqf (http://www.arnoldarts.de/drupal/?q=node/573) is needed for the osc-part and has to be installed beforehand. The direct-link to the source package is: http://www.arnoldarts.de/drupal/files/downloads/tapstart/tapstart-0.1.tar.gz ofqf: http://www.arnoldarts.de/drupal/files/downloads/ofqf/ofqf-0.1.1.tar.bz2 Have fun, Arnold -- visit http://www.arnoldarts.de/ --- Hi, I am a .signature virus.

Eee As Synth Engine?

by holotone＠gmail.com

I've been tinkering recently with my Eee running Xubuntu and a newly acquired M-Audio Axiom 49 USB Midi Keyboard; I think it'd be just about as great as it could get if I could use the Eee as a synth engine via XynAddSubFX or similar - Unfortunately, I've been unable to tweak my JACK settings to the point that all stutters and chops have been eliminated. I understand that the Eee specs are quite low (900mhz proc, 512MB RAM), but watching my resource usage while I'm playing shows the processor at less than 50% and RAM holding steady at 60% or so - This would lead me to believe that my problem is configuration related. Any other Eee users out there had any luck getting JACK fine tuned to the Eee? Since we're all working on nearly identical hardware, perhaps we could swap configs? Thanks! -- ~holotone http://holotone.net/

jack and RT-patched kernels

by Julien Claassen

Hi everyone! I narrowed my recent problem down to not being LinuxSampler, but either jack or its interaction with the kernel. So: Does any of you use 2.6.23.1-rt11 or 2.6.24-rt1 in conjunction with jack? How well does it work? Is it easy to make connections when the system is working nicely (with a good deal of memory in use)? I still have trouble connecting my linuxsampler when I've loaded my 1.3gig sample (32768 samples in RAM) or when I use fluidsynth with a very big soundfont (200M). It's all much too instable? Suggestions anyone? What to test? Where to start? Kindest regards Julien -------- Music was my first love and it will be my last (John Miles) ======== FIND MY WEB-PROJECT AT: ======== http://ltsb.sourceforge.net the Linux TextBased Studio guide ======= AND MY PERSONAL PAGES AT: ======= http://www.juliencoder.de

OT: book - Musimathics

by Greg

Dr. Gareth Loy, Musimathics 1 and 2 Has anybody read these books? I did a quick search of my archive of the list and it doesn't look like they've been discussed here. Vol I is "musical elements," Vol II is "musical signals." Judging by the table of contents they appear to be comprehensive. www.musimathics.com

SuperCollider goes wrong with jackd @ UbuntuHardyAlpha3

by '2+

excuse me ... forgot to fill out the subject .. did a dist-upgrade for UbuntuHardyAlpha3 last weekend and the RT kernel became a bit older than the generic one was using the system as CUI but since the setup for awesome went okay also installed emacs-snapshot-nox and supercollider even though ChucK works fine with jackd when i do emacs -sclang and try to boot the server it returns JackDriver couldn't connect alsa_pcm:capture_1 to SuperCollider:in_1 JackDriver couldn't connect alsa_pcm:capture_2 to SuperCollider:in_2 JackDriver couldn't connect SuperCollider:out_1 to alsa_pcm:playback_1 JackDriver couldn't connect SuperCollider:out_2 to alsa_pcm:playback_2 i wonder what is wrong i have to always install the brand new RT kernel manually? snapshot version of emacs-nox is not okay? (purging that version and installing 21 or 22 results into no emacs-nox existing) HardyAlpha3 seems to have pulseaudio enabled as default this has something to do with the error? -- '2+ http://micro.ispretty.com
