After hearing of Dave Brubeck's passing, I was inspired to throw together a little sketch in his honor. The result is Blue Rondo Phase (where "phase" is meant in the Steve Reich sense). It's just a sketch -- not my best sound design by a long shot, and the form is a bit abbreviated. There's enough to rework into a polished composition later. Hope this proves entertaining or useful to someone. http://soundcloud.com/dewdrop_world/blue-rondo-phase Source: http://www.dewdrop-world.net/sc3/hjh-blue-rondo-phase-for-brubeck.scd (All made with SuperCollider running in Linux, btw.) hjh

[LAU] Calling all Swami gurus...

by Brent Busby

I have now created a fairly nice drum soundfont will all sorts of tweaks, which works perfectly. I'd like to create another instrument within the same soundfont that uses most of the same settings (panning, attenuation, envelopes, etc.), using the first one as a starting point, but simply repoint each instrument zone to different samples. What's the easiest way to do that? I've already done copy/paste to create my new instrument that is a clone except for the name, but short of going through and deleting/recreating every single zone in the instrument (which would defeat the point of copying and pasting), I can't see a way in the GUI to easily just repoint to a different sample. Is there any documentation to this program? I've searched high and low, and it looks like you're really expected to learn Swami by using Creative Labs Vienna on Windows. It's remarkable, since most programs that lack docs also lack quality, but from what I've seen Swami 2.0 hasn't failed to do anything I've asked or crashed once in days of usage. It seems to be a perfect soundfont editor whose one flaw is it doesn't have any documentation. -- + Brent A.

[LAU] OT: Durable headphones

by Ralf Mardorf

Right now I did some research, since I bought my AKG K 240 DF around 30 years ago. It's discontinued. http://www.akg.com/site/products/powerslave,id,253,pid,253,nodeid,2,_langua… I know that studios today have better headphones, but they are very expensive and all I ever used in studios only one time need to clunk on the floor and they are borked. The AKG has a (relatively ;) less good sound quality, but anyway it's very good as a reference and the one I own survived, other headphones I owned or used in studios get broken. Are there still some durable headphones for studio usage? AFAIK for the German Rundfunk they switched a long time ago from the AKG I own, to those better once, that will not last very long. Regards, Ralf
