I have lot of sheet music for practicing (guitar) and would love to
have a simple way to put it into computer so that I can play it.
Something that makes it easy to write music, could be just text (like
http://abc.sourceforge.net/) or regular music notation or tabs or...
whatever is optimized for writing down music...
Just to be clear - I am not looking for a way to record the music, I
want to write it down in some kind of notation.
playback is not a focus, if it produces midi or audio file and the
rhythm is correct I'm happy.
(looking for opinions based on personal experience)
(and yes, looking for linux solution)
thanks!

Hi list,
After some years of tests and blank screens, feel ready to give a try to
professional use of Linux for music building !
What needed before is this function to recall complex connections
between many applis in one click...
Some listed in the subject of this mail should do that. What is YOUR
choice, and why ?
Thanks for replies,
Fred
Hi everybody,
Looking at the new mixer to connect to my genelec 8030A
http://www.behringer.com/EN/Products/VMX1000USB.aspx
I read
"Built-in USB interface for recording and playback of any digital
music file. Works with your PC or Mac computer—no setup or drivers
required"
So I can guess that it should be work out-of-the-box also with Linux.
Any additional info?
Regards,

hi,
I have a Thinkpad R61 with Ricoh FW chipset and NVidia Quadro GK.
The Ricoh works for some minutes, then the connection breaks... I knew
those constraints from the FFADO page and didn't waste much time on that.
I purchsed a Belkin FW/PCMCIA card F5U513v which has TI chipset.
My FW audio works without any problem (Focusrite Saffire PRO 10), but I
have to deavtivate the NVidia driver when using FW Audio beause
graficdriver shares interrupt with yenta.
My USB Card Lexicon Omega Studio also works great and I only can
recommend it.
So my decision which interface to use is just a question of number of
needed inputs,
best

Hi all,
I'm looking for a tool that can analyse an MP3 file, and write out a
polyphonic MIDI file - basically so I can have the sheet music. Can
anyone name one?
Although this is a Linux list, I don't care what platform the tool runs
on, since I will only use it once and then go away happy with my MIDI
file :)
So far I only found a demo Windows program called intelliScore
Polyphonic Demo. It's limited to the first 15 seconds but unfortunately
it made such a terrible job that I don't feel inclined to purchase the
full version.
The MP3 in question is "Vevey (Revisited)" by Yes, from their 1977 album
"Going for the One". It's a simply constructed piece of music but the
organ chords are really confusing me. I've tried to go through it and
notate it manually, but I seem to be incapable of picking the notes out
of the chords. Rick Wakeman is clearly a genius :)

So, if anyone can recommend some software that can help me here, I'd be
very grateful. Alternatively, if anyone is willing to write it out for
me (MIDI, PDF, or any other decent format) then I'll make it worth their
while!
Cheers,
Jonathan
hi,
I've just been working on some supercollider code to automatically
generate notes in a shepard scale from any incoming midi events. I
thought I would post the code and a sample of how it sounds in case
anyone else finds it useful.
The way it works is you send supercollider a stream of midi events
through its midi port, and the program converts these into outgoing midi
events which represent notes in a shepard scale. If you play a rising
scale on a keyboard, the notes will come out as rising shepard scale
notes; similarly for a falling scale. It works best if you feed it into
a pure sine wave generator, but you get some interesting effects with
other synths.
The code and the sample mp3 are here:
http://www.ganglion.me/media/
Any comments on the code are welcome. (I'm still fairly new to
supercollider :) ).
hope someone finds this useful,
andy
Hi,
no chance, I tried many times configurations and nothing. I have always the
same case, once I can record without hearing the guitar I am playing into
ardour. I only listen to it after the recording, otherwise I with
pactl load-module
module-loopback, the delay kills..
Any tuto for installing jack, ardour and recording.
Please help.
Regards to all.

Clemens,
thanks for your hint, I already tried this but it's only partly of help,
the xruns are significantly less but still present, so I went back to my
strategy deactivating the NVidia Driver which is not a big deal,

This has to be very basic, but I'm unable to find a solution: is there
a command-line way play a clip in an infinite loop, without audio
glitches?
$ mplayer -loop 0 loop.flac
and
$ vlc -L loop.flac
both stop for a few seconds before repeating. I'd prefer something
that works both with jack and plain ALSA, of course :)

I've always dual booted, because of Windows games, and for some
Windows audio and music software. Now I have a firewire interface that
only works with Jack under Linux, which is unpleasing.
I decided to install Kubuntu on a virtual machine using Windows
as the host. This is awesome. I'm using a dual head setup, and
put Linux on one monitor full screen, and my main Windows screen
on the other. Vmware allows the mouse to seamlessly glide from
one OS to the other. My firewire interface appears as a well
supported Ensoniq AudioPCI. Too cool. I give Linux a dedicated
stereo pair of the Echo Audiofire8. My machine has 8Gig Ram and
a four core processor. I give half of the ram and two of the four
processors to Linux. I still have two strong 'machines' running at the
same time, and sharing files is easy.
Cygwin was always a possibility, but I'm going to run this setup
now. The Linux box feels like it's running on its own hardware.
Very cool. The basic version of VMware is free now btw.
Virtualbox is another option, but I think VMware has the edge.
