Hi,
I've only used Ardour, but I've seen Qtractor mentioned quite a bit
here. I had never really paid attention to it, thinking that it was some
kind of quirky software for electronic music composers. But today I was
curious and I browsed its web page. It seems to be a simpler version of
Ardour, to my ver unexperienced and unknowledgeable eyes. Is it so? Is there
some comparison between them that I can check to know more?
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
Several questions in one.
I'd like to use OSC (only) to export session in Ardour. I've been able
to get the dialog box for exporting session, by using:
/ardour/access_action Main/ExportSession
But then I've to validate the dialog box, and I'd like something like
"assume yes", so that I don't need the GUI (my aim is to run ardour
headless), any idea about how I could do that.
Second question, is there a way to do a "non-realtime" export, I mean an
offline export, like when rendering 3D images, and so on.
I don't care about the time it takes, I would like to be able to say
that all export process is the same, not depending on who or when it has
been launched, and also to consume quite few ressources for that.
Thanks a lot.

Hi,
I did the talk on 'A position sensing MIDI percussion interface' at LAC
at the weekend. A few people asked me afterwards if they could have more
information about it, including construction details, so I'm just
posting a link to the page on my website about it:
http://highfellow.org/synpad
There are links here to an instructables.com article about how to build
one, the original youtube demo video, and the latest software release
which I used for the talk.
Hope people find this useful,
andy baxter.

My 2 cents:
Keep -0.2db headroom minimum, or for the lazy/cautious: a peak limiter set at -0.2db on the master buss should do the trick. (I'm not a good engineer, so I fall into the second category).
-0.2db seems to "hold" it's value better in most software that resamples. Anything higher will almost always end up clipped or limited, in an uncontrolled fashion - as Fons pointed out here, some peaks will invariably be sampled on either side and the software will just pin everything between the samples at 0db. Yuck.
I spent an afternoon last year comparing -0.2/-0.1/0.0db max, and I found this to be the case almost every time. Never had a stray peak at -0.2db

Hi,
I'm trying to run FFADO on LMDE 201012 which is basically Debian
Squeeze. I'm using the the following packaged software versions:
FFADO: 2.0.1
libraw1394: 2.0.5
Kernel: 2.6.37 (Liquorix) or 2.6.32 (stock)
FFADO dbus server won't start citing no Firewire devices being found.
FFADO diagnostics tool tells me that I have the new Firewire stack which
is incompatible with FFADO. The thing is though, FFADO website says
(http://ffado.org/?q=node/1316) that it should work with the software
versions I have:
---Start quote
The last weeks have seen a few rumors and lots of questions: Is ffado
running with the new firewire stack?
The answer is kind of yes.
What you need is libraw1394 in version 2.0.5 or higher. And kernel
2.6.32 or higher. Then ffado (both the 2.0 branch and development trunk)
should be usable on the new juju stack. Thanks to the team of the
kernel-stack and some distributions for stepping up and (mostly) fix the
kernel and libraw1394 for this. The changes to ffado where quite minimal.

So has anyone managed to get FFADO running under LMDE/Squeeze?

I've built the latest SVN - works as expected. My only guess is that the
misbehavior I observed could be somehow related to checkinstall (I built
a .deb of 11.02 with it).

Hi,
i'd like to get information on Aeolus from Fons Adriaensen, the link to his page seems to be dead.
I'd like to know about how to access and use the stops with midi.
Is there a good doc somewhere?
thank you,
Menno

Yes, another shameless plug for a remix contest entry, this time it's a
remix of "Bring Me Down" by Saigon.
The contest link is here (beware, requires flash):
http://www.indabamusic.com/submissions/show/55504
I have an mp3, licensed under Creative Commons
Attribution-Non-Commercial-No Derivatives 3.0, available here (sorry, I
didn't make a patent unencumbered version):
http://db.tt/TcusEbd
This was made using a vocal stem provided for the contest entry and bits
of a backing vocal stem. All done with MixBus, Qtractor, LinuxSampler
(for the bass), Qsynth (for the strings), Yoshimi (very briefly for some
bass), and Hydrogen (using mostly the "Popsticks" kit from Analog Drums).
The acoustic guitars were recorded with a single AT2020 mic and the
electrics were recorded direct-in through a Digitech GNX3000.
Comments, criticisms and flames are encouraged.
Thanks!
