Would anyone on the list happen to be familiar with MIDI::ALSA from
CPAN? There doesn't seem to be much documentation, and the example
programs seem to have everything but the kitchen sink in them. (I can't
separate the bare necessities from the sink and the dishwasher...)
It's a shot in the dark, but if anyone might be able to post a short
"hello world" type code example of how to connect to a port and do sysex
transmit with it, I'd very much appreciate it.

Hi,
today we have published the video of another single of John Option:
Bike.
The song is published under the terms of the Creative Commons License
(CC-BY-SA) and it's completely produced with free software:
Ardour, Hydrogen, Jack, Qsynth, CALF, and many other
great free audio software that we used under Debian GNU/Linux.
Here you can listen the single and see the video (made with kdenlive):
https://youtu.be/mh0KePyFM2g
As for the previous songs we have done a little more in the direction of
freedom and we published in our website[1] the single recording tracks
and the complete Ardour session. All this material is published under
the terms of the Creative Commons license Attribution Share alike so
that anyone can use our tracks to produce a remix of our song or even a
new song that have to be published under the same license.
You can find all about our project here: http://johnoption.org
I hope that you like our choice of freedom. If you feel like I'd love
to read your feedback, because the encouragement of the people who
listen to us and appreciate the philosophy of our project is the only
fuel for us to continue. And if you like to be updated about our next
release, please subscribe to our YouTube channel or any other social
network you like (see link to our profiles on our website[1]).
Best regards,
Max-B

Hi all
The Advanced Gtk+ Sequencer release v0.6.28 is out and brings some
bug-fixes. Read more at:
http://gsequencer.org/gsequencer/announcements/2015/12/04/gsequencer-v0_6_2…
Some really weired stuff was fixed like dead-lock while open files or
a crash caused by the pattern/notation editor.
cheers,
Joël
If I bracket the write call with a mutex to protect the data block from
corruption as it's actually being written does that interfere with the read
operation?
Presumably this needs to compare the write pointer with the read one to find
out if there is anything to read.

Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
A setting for this has been in the part edit window for quite a long time. There
are 20 steps of approximately half a cent. This is applied as a pitch variation
to the note-on event, so is per note and also per part (but the whole part not
just one engine).
It was intended to simulate to effect of fretless instruments, or fretted ones
that are weight or bend sensitive, where tiny variations in normal playing
would result in such pitch 'inaccuracies'. It also works quite well on flute
and whistle sounds. I've used it a few times myself and values of 2-3 seem best.
I'm wondering what use (if any) others have made of it, or even if anyone has
recognised what it does!
Currently this setting isn't saved. It's still classed as an experimental
feature. Also, if we keep it and want to save it, should it be an individual
instrument parameter or applied for that part in a complete patch set?
