Hello, I hadn't loaded Guitarix since a few versions back. Now it appears the presets functions have been moved to the main interface, so it's no longer possible to save/load them from the menu system. Also, I no longer seem to be able to find the standard controls such as pre/post gains, drive, clean/dist, etc. Is there a chance preset functions could be made accessible again and ATK tags generally revisited? Guitarix is a great piece of software and, aside from firefox, one of the few reasons I ever fire up the GUI and Orca. Thanks! Cheers, S.M.

New Music made with Linux: Bach X 2

by Julien Claassen

Hello fellow LAU-ers! I've recorded two more piano pieces by Bach. The sinfonia in B Minor and the invention in C Minor. I'm afraid, I can't do better than that, with the B Minor sinfonia. At least it's one honest take (after hours of practise :-) ) and I didn't minpulate it afterwards.:-) http://juliencoder.de/nama/bach-b_minor_sinfonia.ogg http://juliencoder.de/nama/bach-b_minor_sinfonia.mp3 But so you don't get totaly disappointed - me not being good old Glenn, nowhere near enough -, I have recorded the C Minor invention as well. I must say, after listening to it - not necessarily in my version - I feel consoled and at one with the world again: http://juliencoder.de/nama/bach-c_minor_invention.ogg http://juliencoder.de/nama/bach-c_minor_invention.mp3 Or find them all from my website: http://juliencoder.de/nama/music.html I hope you like them both, feedback is always welcome. If you're not happy with them, just say so and record your own versions, there can never be enough Bach. :-) Warmly yours Julien =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Such Is Life: Very Intensely Adorable; Free And Jubilating Amazement Revels, Dancing On - FLOWERS! ====== Find my music at ====== http://juliencoder.de/nama/music.html .....................................

[ANN] AnalyseLV2, 1st release

by S. Massy

Hello, all, I am pleased to release a very modest but, IMHO, useful little piece of code I wrote last month, the first in many years. What it is: AnalyseLV2 is a PERL module, AnalyseLV2.pm, and a front-end script, analyselv2, which parses the output of such utilities as lv2info and lv2ls and outputs it in a format closely modelled on that of analyseplugin for ladspa. I believe this makes using LV2 from the command line, using such hosts as Ecasound, lv22file, and lv2proc, much more straightforward. The backend module can also be used by other PERL programmes (Joel Roth's Nama already uses it) to receive the information pertaining to a given plugin already broken down in a key/value structure. You can get it at: http://www.wolfdream.ca/x/misc/AnalyseLV2-0.01.tgz Please consult the README for installation instructions and basic information. I hope it can be useful to a few command-liners out there. Cheers, S.M. --

A remix of some old cult music :-)

by Julien Claassen

Hello everyone! I've just remixed a tracker module. :-) Great fun. I would have liked to really take it apart, substitute the samples and then do some nice processing on it, but alas: no tools to do that. :-) I've been dreaming about it for years, for the impatient: here's the original module http://modarchive.org/module.php?60960 And here is my remix: http://juliencoder.de/nama/3ddemo.ogg http://juliencoder.de/nama/3ddemo.mp3 Or available from the music site: http://juliencoder.de/nama/music.html I used xmp to export the four channels into single wav-files. Then I impoted them into Nama. From there I had to go through the rigmarole of dividing the channels into different regions for the single instruments. They knew how to work with little and make it infinitely complicated for the archeologer. :-) Well all those regions found, I slapped some delay, EQ, chorus and reverb on, adjusted the pan and we are done. Feedback is welcome!

The Infinite Repeat - Leave It All Behind

by Jeremy Jongepier

Just a guitar and some vocals. One single take. http://theinfiniterepeat.com/music/the_infinite_repeat_-_leave_it_all_behin… Ingredients: * A nasal voice, I got a bad cold ;) * A Fender Telecaster * Brummer's amazing Guitarix, I was sitting in front of my monitors and turned them up loud. WHOAW! I've heard quite a lot of tube amps in my life and some modeling stuff too but Guitarix is just exceptionally good. Just listen to how the guitar sound saturates, Guitarix really reacts like a real tube amp. * A Studio Projects B1 for the vocals. If anyone got a good tip for a better mic I'm all ears. * Rui's unbeatable Qtractor. * A bunch of plug-ins: Invada compressor, lv2fil, Freeverb, Calf Gate (to gate the spill of the guitar strumming on the vocal track), linuxDSP MBC2, Fast Lookahead limiter Laid down and mixed very quickly so bear with the imperfections. Best, Jeremy

petri-foo-0.1.3

by James Morris

Hi, petri-foo-0.1.3 is now available from sourceforge.net... ...uhmmm, no, it's not despite uploading over ten hours ago. petri-foo-0.1.3 is now available to download from http://github.com/downloads/jwm-art-net/Petri-Foo/petri-foo-0.1.3.tar.bz2 the release is more or less identical to the master branch on git right now, except unfinished features have been removed. differences from the previous release, petri-foo-0.0.2: * migrated from autotools to cmake * removed external dependency on PHAT and replaced with a custom version called Phin * mousewheel waveform zooming * velocity range setting for patch * auto-preview (with optional resampling) in sample selector dialog * bugs resuscitated and squashed again * minor GUI updates/fixes hopefully sourceforge will at some point deem the petri-foo-0.1.3.tar.bz2 ready for download... Cheers, James. p.s. digest mode here.

Rendering tracker modules in single sample bits

by Julien Claassen

Hello everyone! Is there any commandline tool, that you can think of, that would allow me the following two features; 1. Play only a single instrument (not channel) of a module. 2. Render its output to an audio file (wav, raw...). I don't mind having several tracks for one instrument, if it is split between different channels. I tried xmp, Timidity and mikmod. But the most they can do is mute all but one channel. One channel however can still contain multiple instruments played at different times. So I have an aweful job, trying to split them into regions. Any suggestions welcome, keep in mind, that I'm looking for a commandline tool, please.

FireWire audio on Linux: past, present and future

by Alexandre Prokoudine

Folks, Some recent FireWire related development in ALSA got me interested, so I ended up doing a large-ish interview with Clemens Ladisch of ALSA, and the FFADO team on the state of support for FireWire audio interfaces in Linux. http://bit.ly/MvgnxU One topic that wasn't quite covered is an open FireWire interface that was discussed last winter. Anything ever came out of it? Alexandre Prokoudine http://libregraphicsworld.org

Even if an MX record must exist I can't seem to find a corresponding IP (the MX is hostmaster.dreamhost.com, which does not seem to have an A record...) I'll try to have another look in the morning. I only have a windows machine here and I doubt windows can even resolve addresses properly :) Cheers everyone :) -- Marc-Olivier Barre XMPP ID : marco(a)marcochapeau.org www.MarcOChapeau.org
