This is Steinway_IMIS soundfont, version 2.2.
ftp://musix.ourproject.org/pub/musix/sf2/Steinway_IMIS2.2
This version fixes the issue with loops. I hope this is the good one
and there are no more remaining major bugs.
Marcos is a little busy right now, so he asked me to make this fix. He
is thinking to make other improvements, so expect more updates soon.
This is an unedited improv where I was trying out a couple of my latest voice
patches. I used two keyboards one set to transmit on MIDI channel 1
and the other on channel 2. The pads (LH) are 'Ghost Ensemble' and the lead
(RH) is 'Angel Harp'.
Some of the pauses are intentional others are "Heck! Where do I go now." :)

Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
Hi,
today we have published the video of another single of John Option: Any.
Of course 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):

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

I'm happy to report that as of this morning, 100-Watt KNYO-FM in Fort Bragg California (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KNYO-LP) is running on Linux, Linux Audio and Free Software.
(Well, then again, I can't speak for their website; I didn't set that up, and it looks like an F5 box, dunno what they run. But the actual streaming and broadcast radio signal chain up to the transmitter is Linux.)
The FM transmitter is in a remote location getting its audio program from a Raspberry Pi running Raspbian connected via DSL to a Linode running Airtime and Icecast2 for station automation and streaming. The studio machine is a Linux Mint XFCE box running The BUTT connected via DSL to the Linode and Airtime. I've done a few Liquidsoap customizations to Airtime to fill in missing features (AutoDJ, saving incoming streams, etc) and will be doing more, possibly contributing them upstream if I can keep them clean and general enough.

My little weird project has released a song this year as well, ready
to ruin the holiday cheer for those that want it. It's mostly doom
this year I guess, sprinkled with some bongo parts and such nonsense.
And some chaos at the end.
As usual with this band (and a reason why I rarely post about the
releases here), it's a total rush job, with the vocalist doing his
parts only last week, and me trying to squeeze in some bad mixing job
until I had to upload it yesterday, when I left home for the rest of
the year.
I know some people have trouble with bandcamp, so if you can't listen
(or take advantage of the free download), and have a good idea for a
place I could upload it for easy wget, let me know!

Happy yule-time to you all!
ahoy all,
i have been doing some research into free/libre software and/or services for music distribution. my preferences are a *customizable* static HTML+CSS+JavaScript site (e.g. like the current crop of static site generators https://staticsitegenerators.net ) that i can host myself which allows streaming and free/libre downloads of releases/tracks. basically i am looking for a simple static site generator that is album/track/audio aware, though i am open to any solutions available.
my current list is small and all save one require a full-blown CMS+DB install:
* Pushtape http://pushtape.com
- currently only Drupal based
* CASH Music platform http://cashmusic.org
- PHP+DB requirement for self hosting
- also available as a free/beer service hosted by CASH Music with embeddable widgets
- currently no streaming support
* WordPress
- there are some freemium plugins for hosting a music store, etc. but again i am trying to avoid the setup+maintenance of a full CMS
* indieTorrent https://indietorrent.org
- online only service
- very interesting/cool manifesto https://indietorrent.org/docs/manifesto/
- not lots of activity but still kicking https://indietorrent.org/4rum/viewtopic.php?f=1&p=39#p39
- not specifically for self hosting but as it is open source it could be done
others (ReverbNation, Jamendo, Magnatune, Bandcamp, Bandpage, thesixtyone, etc) are all either non-libre, non-self hosting, etc.
if anyone has any items to add to this list, experience with a service, homemade solutions, etc. i would appreciate them sharing it. i figure since we all go through various amounts of trouble to follow our principles/passions/whatever by using free/libre tools when making music, sharing it would be no different.
thanks, w
I'm the (un?)lucky owner of an M-Audio Fast Track Pro USB audio
interface and I'm having some serious problems getting this device to
record audio reliably under Linux.
I've been using arecord and occasionally Audacity for all of my
testing. My problem is this: Recording a take works about 80% of the
time. In the remaining ~20% of cases, the captured audio is extremely
loud with severe digital distortion. Once this problem shows up, it
persists for any subsequent takes. The only way I've found to make
the problem go away, at least temporarily, is to power-cycle the Fast
Track Pro.
I considered the possibility that this particular device might be
defective, but it seems to work wonderfully under Windows.
I'm calling out to other Fast Track Pro users in the hope that someone
out there has encountered the same problem and better still, found a
solution.
Any suggestions at all would be greatly appreciated!

Hi there!
ShowQ is a unique cue-player for Linux-Audio-Users. I use it as a core
application for my theater activities.
Even in the linux-community it's not a very well known application,
although there's no other linux-program (I know) if you need a
one-shot-audio-player with features like f.e. programmable fade-in,
fade-out, no matter if you want it time-based or triggered by space (or
another key).
It can do a lot more - ShowQ has MIDI-support. Although I never tested
this feature, it should be possible to control any application with
MIDI-support. QLC(+) f.e. - or maybe some video-players do support MIDI
- I don't know...
Yeah, of course, ShowQ is not a drop in replacement for QLAB, but
speaking about audio it fits quiet perfectly in my setup.
ShowQ is in the Debian (and Ubuntu?) repositories, it's written in C++
and of course released under the terms of the GPL. Although this app is
quiet useful for technicians like me, the development stopped years ago.
I am not a coder, but I do my best to keep this project alive. On the
Debian bug-tracker I write bug-reports for ShowQ, hoping that on one
hand it's useful for other users to work around problems, on the other
hand that someone fixes them.
Last time I reported a bug Jaromír Mikeš the Debian-maintainer of ShowQ
wrote that he is not able to fix the bugs and he would like to kick
ShowQ. Of course, he also would like to package an alternative if there
would be some he could package.
I don't know any - so my linux-based theater setup is about to be killed
one day when ShowQ wouldn't compile on my debian machine, anymore.
So, what do I want from you?
Test ShowQ! Maybe it's the app you've been missing for a long time!
And if you're a coder with C++-skills, check out my bugreports on
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?repeatmerged=no&src=showq
- maybe you've got the clue...
OR: Got an alternative to ShowQ? You're welcome!
Greets!
Mitsch
