Greetings,
Fellow Linux audio user Folderol is having problems sending to this
list, so he asked me to forward this message:
Subject: Something new (at last!)
Last Friday after work I tried to develop a new yoshimi voice patch. I never
succeeded in getting what I wanted but I did manage to produce a very nice lead
sound. I then started fiddle with the settings in Rosegarden to make another
stab at getting it to record MIDI from two keyboards on different ports
directly to two different tracks, and sounding two different yoshimi voices. By
the time I managed to do this it was no longer Friday, but the early hours
of Saturday.
I wasn't the least bit tired so started to noodle around with my left hand
playing a choir sound, and the right hand playing my new lead sound on the other
keyboard. I thought what I was playing didn't sound too bad so hit record.
However it seems I didn't notice the magic pixie dust falling around me, and
just left the recording and went to bed for a few hours.
Much later that day, I had what was going to be a quick listen before scrubbing
it. Instead, with just a top-and-tail, and one chord change I stuck it up on
Soundcloud. I was very pleased with the response!
However, the tune was not done with me yet, and Wednesday evening I used
exactly the same method to record an intro, and a very short insert near the
end. I did the absolute minimum of editing to make it all fit - I didn't want
to accidentally shake out any of that pixie dust.
Finally, in response to a comment I received on the original, I added a very
deep, subdued bass line. Due to the free-form nature of the melody, this was
actually the hardest part of all, and took a lot of patching and retries.
Anyway, here is the final result. I hope you like it. The name of my new lead
sound is also the title of the track

It really depends what you're trying to achieve.
If you want to equalize PA systems, japa can be helpful, (using pink
noise); if want to create freq response plots or measurements, maybe you
should patch JAAA to add a log-scale option...
maybe you're actually looking for a different tool e.g.
http://www.baudline.com/
check the README of japa; it clearly states that it does filtering
("With the default settings, JAPA uses a filter set that closely follows
the Bark scale").
Fons - author of JAAA and JAPA - is on this list and may chime in sooner
or later.

Hello, Andrew--
Thank you for your help! Your solution worked perfectly, once i jumped a few
hurdles on my end. First, i had to figure out how to middle click. i've never
had a mouse with a middle click, so i've never had to solve the problem.
Fortunately, my touchpad has a way of doing it. Then, i made things more
complicated then necessary. i ran the b3 with the -gmc switch, being absolutely
sure that the gui itself should receive this message. i was wrong.
You wouldn't happen to know, Andrew, if these connections can be stored? It
would be easiest, if i'm ever in a live situation, to be able to call up the b3
without remapping all the midi assignments. i'm always a little nervous asking
these things, though. If the only solution is to write the code, i wouldn't
know how to do it.
Thanks, again, Andrew. Take care.

I just checked it, and it is fixed in svn.
Thanks for that...
Would you supply an extra patch with the 3.0 release as well?
Hi,
I managed to compile Sofwerk without errors on Arch Linux,
and now I'm wondering if it is functioning correctly.
The thing that worries me is that when I hit run on one
of the sequences, then only one step is played. When I hit
pause and play after that, the next step is played. After
repeatedly hitting pause & play, you can cycle through all
the steps, but the sequences don't seem to run otherwise.
Now, when I drive Softwerk with MTC, the sequences start
to run fine. Is this how it should be done? Or should Softwerk
be able to run fine without MTC?
This might be a bug, as i compiled Softwerk against very
recent libs, but I'm not sure what to expect...
Thanks for your help.

This is a maintenance release of guitarix2 with some minor fixes.
Guitarix is a mono tube amplifier simulation for jack, with additional
mono/stereo effect racks which can be filled with some in-build effects
as well as with external LADSPA plugins.
Things that changed in this release:
* fix In "organize" mod copying preset form one bank to the
same one corrupts the bank
* add sse4a (CPU optimization) to wscript
* add treble booster unit
* set osc buffer-size menu to sensitive false when jack buffer
is larger then 1023 to avoid X-runs
Please refer to our project page for more information:
http://guitarix.sourceforge.net/
download site:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/guitarix/
have fun

Hello,
I'm trying to record on a new system, and I'm getting xruns. My
old system produced no xruns.
The problem system runs:
Fedora 17
Kernel 3.5.2-3.fc17.x86_64
Ardour 2.8.14
JACK 1.9.8
Intel i7, 16GB RAM, SATA 6Gb/s drives
My user ID is a member of the "jackuser" group.
Jack is running as:
/usr/bin/jackd \
-T -ndefault -p 256 -R -P 60 -T -d alsa -n 2 -r 48000 -p 1024 -d hw:2,0
In 43 minutes I've had almost 6700 xruns.
The working system runs:
Mandriva 2010.2
Kernel 2.6.33.7-server-2mnb
Ardour 2.8.11
JACK 1.9.5
Intel Q9650, 4GB RAM, IDE drives
Reading through the CCRMA documentation here:
http://ccrma.stanford.edu/planetccrma/software/installplanetsixteen.html
It looks like the kernel and jack for F17 are built for "proper
realtime priority". What am I missing. Is there something
I need to do beyond being a member of "jackuser" in order to
operate with acceptable xruns?
I think I'll go back to the old system for a while.
Thanks....

Hi,
I like to use the old Spriral Synth and SpiralLoops. Do you thing it is
possible to compile it, for example on ubuntu 12.04?
The binaries do not work on my machine (64bit)
http://www.pawfal.org/Software/SpiralSynth/
I know this programs are absolutely out of date but I did some nice
songs with this programs in the past and I like work with them again.
thanks
chris
