I am looking for a delay effect to help create a sense of space around
electronic instruments and close mic'ed acoustic instruments. In other
words, something natural sounding, not an artificial sounding effect.
Looking for recommendations for something in case I have overlooked
something.
The Harrison 3D triple delay looks like it might be what I had in mind,
but I would prefer something open source.
The Invada delay plugin seems like it might be OK, but I was hoping for a
plugin with a wet/dry mix control so I could use different delay settings
per instrument, rather than having a delay bus like you would for a
reverb, and the Invada seems like it can only be used with a send/bus
approach. Not unworkable, I would just have to set up multiple busses
with different delay settings, have something like a far away, mid
distance, close instruments kind of approach and just assign tracks to the
different busses as appropriate.
TAP stereo echo also looks like it might be OK for that, I have that
inserted to check out.
And Calf Vintage Delay, although I think I might end up having to use two
of those plugins to get an early reflection effect, unless I am just not
understanding correctly how the feedback parameter works.
Anything I missed that I should check out?
This Reaper plugin looks like what I think I want, but it is Windows only
(although Wine is supported; not sure how that would play in Linux,
though):
The particular plugin is Readelay

Yes, that looks great, thanks for the link. I had not found the
documentation, and when I tried to use that Haas effect the controls were
not intuitive to me. I could not produce the effect I wanted, but I think
with that documentation maybe I can, the settings I used before were
specifically recommended to not use by the document, so not surprising it
did not sound good. Hopefully I can get time to try the recommended
settings in a couple of days.
thanks,

Hi,
first I have to say that I feel offended by Patricks way of assuming the
"Germans way of life"!
I also think I would fit the profile...
I like working with multimedia of all sorts...
But what has this job to do with multimedia, if I drive around the
country in a car?
Talking about it!?
I have a MSc degree in information engineering, not an MBA.
So, give me problems to solve, not customers to please... (I have come
along lots of the talking multimedia sort of people...)
PS:
I am self employed living in Cologne, german multimedia and television city.
Perhapes I can give you some support here?
But I am not interested in driving around by car anywhere at all.
BR,
Christoph

x42-plugins is a collection of cross platform LV2 audio/midi plugins,
currently featuring over 80 plugins from 11 repositories.
https://github.com/x42/x42-pluginshttp://gareus.org/misc/x42-plugins/x42-plugins-20150702.tar.xz
(sha1sum d37977c1a07f6d1a46e673614a2be47881cc7bce)
Changes since the last release (20150530)
* All plugins
- now have LV2 required version numbers
- feature built-in documentation/description
Plugin descriptions are now 100% spec conform and survived
pedantic inspection by the LV2 high inquisitor (falkTX ['s script]).
There have been various small build-system and packaging tweaks reported
by distros in the wake of the previous release last month.
Many thanks to Jaromir Mikes (debian), Edgar Aichinger (openSuSe) and
Filipe Coelho (KXstudio).
Likewise portability has been further improved. While developed an
targeted at GNU/Linux, all plugins now on run reliably on all major OS
and support over 20 CPU architectures.
Thanks to Jean-Luc Nest, Chris Goddart and Harrisonconsoles for QA on
OSX and Windows.
* sisco.lv2 (Simple Scope)
- allow to vertically align individual channels
* meters.lv2 (Audio Signal Meters)
- EBUr128 GUI: improved drawing performance (partial exposure)
- new Bit Meter (inspired by bitmeter the jack app)
- scalable GUI for the 30band 1/3 oct spectrum analyzer
- drawing improvements for the Goniometer "dot" mode.
* midifilter.lv2
- fix some invalid ranges min <= default <= max.
- remove units from port-names, use lv2:unit
* OSC controllable standalone jack applications (simple LV2 host)
are now compiled and deployed by default for the following:
+ x42-eq (mono + stereo variant)
+ x42-tuna
+ x42-meter (collection of all meter.lv2)
+ x42-mixtri (mixer/trigger pre-processor)
(x42-scope was previously available as standalone jack app)
- incl man-pages and --osc-doc built-it doc
- possibility to set initial port-values
- featuring port latency compensation
For a complete list of changes, please see the individual repositories:
https://github.com/x42/balance.lv2https://github.com/x42/convoLV2https://github.com/x42/fil4.lv2https://github.com/x42/meters.lv2https://github.com/x42/midifilter.lv2https://github.com/x42/mixtri.lv2https://github.com/x42/nodelay.lv2https://github.com/x42/onsettrigger.lv2https://github.com/x42/sisco.lv2https://github.com/x42/tuna.lv2https://github.com/x42/xfade.lv2
Kudos to Fons Adriaensen, some of the DSP code goes back to him and he
provided very valuable feedback and advise throughout the development of
what became x42-plugins over the years.
Also to David Robillard who laid the LV2 groundwork and made portable
free audio-plugins a possibility in the first place.
Last but not least, many thanks to libremusicproduction.com and
libregraphicsworld.org for continued support and publicity.
have fun,
robin

aplay, arecord, amidi, amixer and jack messages are essentially the same.
The difference is the order of the cards,
HDMI, PCH, USB in kernel 3.18.9 and
USB, HDMI, PCH in kernel 4.0.5
Below, after the uname, aplay, arecord, amidi and amixer output, the
qjackctl messages up to the point where I do get sound with guitarx in
kernel 3.18.9 and I don't with kernel 4.0.5 are listed.
if I switch jack to PCH, audio play and record works with both kernels.
Anyone else have a problem with Focusrite Scarlett and kernel 4.x ?
Should I submit a bug report, if so, where?

Sorry for posting on something non-FOSS but there has been enough talk on Bitwig over the years and that piece of software costs five times as much for me to not feel guilty...
Anyway I noticed Renoise has brought out Redux fairly recently. Thought I may have seen some chatter about it already as there is at least one Renoise user on the list and sure some of you used trackers back in their hayday.
Unfortunately Linux VST only but still maybe of interest to some of you...

I can't get an output with the 4.x kernels from my Focuserite Scarlett 18i8
(USB), the device works fine with 3.x kernels. I don't see any difference
with alsamixer, pulseaudio and jack settings, and input works with both. lsmod
for kernel 4.0.5-200.fc21.x86_64 inculdes snd_seq_midi_event, snd_seq_midi,
and x86_pkg_temp_thermal not listed in 3.18.9-201.rt5.1.fc21.ccrma.x86_64+rt.
Is this a kernel bug or is there something I need to do?
