hi all,
i'm looking for a soundcard that can capture at 192kHz, preferably 4
channels (at this samplerate), with phantom power.
the frequency response should be fairly flat up to 85kHz (i'm mainly
interested in the frequency range between 77kHz and 81kHz).
afaik the roland UA-55 (Quad-Capture) both supports the required sr and
its anti-aliasing lowpass doesn't kick out my payload..
the UA-55 seems to be discontinued, but i guess that the UA-1010
(octa-capture) would also have suitable hardware (and is able to capture
4 channels @ 192kHz).
however, from what i've found on various forums, both devices only have
basic support on linux; esp i've read that they are only supposed to run
in 44.1kHz, which - for my use-case - is a show-stopper.
the UA-1010 is about 500€ which is nice enough (i don't think the
project would be able to afford a 1000+€ soundcard).

Hi
I've developed a new LV2 plugin, the ValveCaster.
It's a tube based boost guitar pedal simulation.
It adds some overdrive and tube compression along with boosting the signal.
It will fit perfect in your signal chain before your guitar-amp-simulator.
It could as well colorize your synth or your Bass to become a "tuby" sound.
It is published under the GNU General Public License v3.0
You can get it here:

Hi all.
On Tuesday the 12th of December it's again the meeting at c-base. As
usual we gather in the mainhall from 20:00.
Now I've also put in a monthly booking for the soundlab, if we want to
make some noise. :-)
Cheers

PS I didn't mess up the date this time, right? ;-) DS
Dear all,

Hi all,
I just wanted to direct your attention towards the fact, that in this
months installment of the One Synth Challenge (OSC) the soft synths of
choice are TAL Elek7ro and NoiseMaker.
https://www.kvraudio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=515776
TAL NoiseMaker is available on Linux in LV2 and VST format, so this
means that Linux users can enter the competition without having to use
any closed source software or plugin-bridges.
https://distrho.sourceforge.io/ports.php
Thought it might be interesting for those who got a taste for
competitions from the FM Challenge :)
Chris
