That, Rui, worked like a charm! i thought such a thing might be the
case, but since i didn't make the machine, i just don't know where all
the buttons are. i let the loop run for at least ten minutes, and the
map remained intact.
Thanks, again, Rui!

Hello,
I'm going to buy an used Focusrite Saffire Pro 10, but I wanted to be sure
about its usability on linux and ardour before.
According to the ffado page about it, the support is complete, but it looks
like there's a bug while on freewheeling mode, as reported here:
http://subversion.ffado.org/ticket/359.
What I need to understand is the bug still exists (sometimes bugs just
disappear, or are resolved from another upgrade and are forgotten) or,
eventually, if the related alsa/firewire stack (the Saffire seems to be
compatible with the snd-bebob driver) has the same problem too.
Does anyone here have such a device and can report his/her experience?
Thank you for your help,
MaurizioB
PS:
Sorry for double posting here and in other forum/ML. The vendor has kindly
agreed to wait for an answer from me, but I don't want to take too much
advantage of it.

My finger is not nearly as heavily on the pulse of Linux Audio development
as are those of so many of the members of the Linux-Audio-Users list and
community that I admire. Would you care to list a few of your favorite LV2
plugins, of the many fine plugins and collections available? :-)

I have my grandmother's piano (still at my parents' house and likely to remain there), an upright grand that was made in 1900. Been kept in tune all these years.
Real pianos are nice.

Hello, Rui!
Here is the original tempo map:
ms. 1: 3/4
ms. 2: 4/4
ms. 4: 2/4
ms. 5: 5/4
That's it. The loop is only five measures long at 138 bpm. i ran the
loop 50 times to document changes in the tempo map. i did this three
times, exiting and restarting qtractor each time.
First time:
During 15th repeat, ms. 4 changed to 4/4
During 30th repeat, ms. 5 changed to 4/4
During 34th repeat, mss. 2 and 3 changed to 3/4
During 38th repeat, ms. 4 changed to 4/4
During 47th repeat, ms. 5 changed to 3/4
Second time:
During 4th repeat, ms.5 changed to 2/4
During 17th repeat, mss. 2 and 3 changed to 3/4
Third time:
During 37th repeat, ms. 5 changed to 2/4
It may be useful to know that after the initial change to the tempo
map, qtractor marks the file as [modified] and asks me whether or not
i want to save the changes before closing the program.
i hope this helps, Rui. Take care.

A piano composition I have been working on, Lost Isle, Pianoteq 5 (Steinway
Model B piano, which is modeled, not sampled) and Ardour.
I haven't been able to login to SoundCloud in a few weeks, haven't pursued
the login issue yet, so I uploaded the piece to BandCamp.comhttps://stephendoonan.bandcamp.com/track/lost-isle
Shoutout to Dave Phillips for the excellent Deconstructed Devo piece. Also
to Philip Yassin for his wonderful YouTube videos. Grateful as ever to Paul
Davis and the Ardour developers.

Actually, Rui, it's the other way around. Measures 2 and 3 were
changed from a plain 4/4 to 3/4, the same time signature as the first
measure. Sometimes it changes all the measures to 3/4. Sometimes it
changes all the measures to 5/4. When i made the screen shots, i was
playing qtractor in loop mode with no midi connections. i went to the
list and saw your second message and post script. i can't get to any
debugging until tomorrow. Hopefully, i'll notice something useful.
Thank you, again!
Qtractor 0.7.8 - The Snobby Graviton is out!
-------------------------------------------
So it's first solstice'16...
The world sure is a harsh mistress... yeah, you read that right! <a
href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Moon_Is_a_Harsh_Mistress">Heinlein's
Moon</a> have been just intentionally rephrased. Yeah, whatever.
Just about when the UK vs. EU is there under close scrutiny and sizzling
winds of trumpeting (pun intended, again) coming from the other side of
the pond, we all should mark the days we're living in.
No worries: we still have some feeble but comforting news:
Qtractor 0.7.8 (snobby graviton) is out!
Nevertheless ;)
Qtractor [1] is an audio/MIDI multi-track sequencer application
written in C++ with the Qt framework [2]. Target platform is Linux,
where the Jack Audio Connection Kit (JACK [3]) for audio and the
Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA [4]) for MIDI are the main
infrastructures to evolve as a fairly-featured Linux desktop audio
workstation GUI, specially dedicated to the personal home-studio.
Change-log:
- MIDI file track names (and any other SMF META events) are now
converted to and from the base ASCII/Latin-1 encoding, as much to
prevent invalid SMF whenever non-Latin-1 UTF-8 encoded MIDI track names
are given.
- MIDI file tempo-map and location markers import/export is now
hopefully corrected, after almost a decade in mistake, regarding MIDI
resolution conversion, when different than current session's setting
(TPQN, ticks-per-quarter-note aka. ticks-per-beat, etc.)
- Introducing LV2 UI Show interface support for other types than Qt,
Gtk, X11 and lv2_external_ui.
- Prevent any visual updates while exporting (freewheeling) audio tracks
that have at least one plugin activate state automation enabled for
playback (as much for not showing messages like "QObject::connect:
Cannot queue arguments of type 'QVector<int>'"... anymore).
- The common buses management dialog (View/Buses...) sees the
superfluous Refresh button finally removed, while two new button
commands take its place: (move) Up and Down.
- LV2 plug-in Patch support has been added and LV2 plug-ins parameter
properties manipulation is now accessible on the generic plug-in
properties dialog.
- Fixed a recently introduced bug, that rendered all but one plug-in
instance to silence, affecting only DSSI plug-ins which implement
DSSI_Descriptor::run_multiple_synths() eg. fluidsynth-dssi, hexter, etc.

Hello,
announcement lecho
lecho is an application to draw shapes with a spreadsheet.
And turn those shapes into audio files.
I wish you fun

Jonetsu dit : Ton appli peut elle aussi dessiner à partir d'audio ? Car
j'ai toujours voulu savoir à quel point les chansons western des
"redneck" (cou rouge = paysans) peuvent être "square" (littéralement
"carrées", par rapport au dessin d'une onde sonore carrée, mais le mot
veut dire aussi "naze, coincé, beauf" en anglais, et ce 2ème sens
définit sans doute le gout pour la musique western de Jonetsu..)

Peut être pas aussi "square" (dans le sens "carré", c'est chiant
l'anglais certains mots ont un sens différent selon le contexte)))),
mais probablement quelques formes d'amplitude zéro Hertz. (qui doit
indiquer que Ralf apprécie également la musique western..)
.fin de la trad.
Une question pour résumer, si je l'ai bien comprise la teneur
~moqueuse~, des réponses précédentes : quel est le but de Lecjo *dans le
contexte de cette liste destinée aux personnes "fabriquant" de la
musique sous Linux ?* (ceci devant être lu sans agressivité, juste du
langage brut de décoffrage et franc, et en incluant un truc important
qui aurait pu loupé par les lecteurs de la liste. Si c'est le cas je
veux bien traduire en anglais ce que tu as à nous annoncer, merci de ne
pas te formaliser de premières réactions un peu abruptes et bienvenu à
toi ici..)
Merci de consacrer du temps à la production sonore Libre sous Linux, et
au cas où "l'équivalent" français de cette liste serait le forum du site
http://linuxmao.org/Accueil
Bonne soirée dans tous les cas,
