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.
Is anybody out here in LAU land have experience with PISound?
https://www.blokas.io/pisound/
I have just bought one and am having quite sever teething problems with it.
It keeps freezing for ~45 seconds when running X and I cannot get it to
use the full display.
cheers

Dear list,
I recently bought a LinnStrument from Roger Linn Design:
http://www.rogerlinndesign.com/linnstrument.html
It is a great isomorphic midi-controller, and as such it is immediately
recognized on Linux.
The distinguishing feature of the LinnStrument is that it senses 3
degrees of freedom on each note: x-direction, y direction and
z-direction (pressure). The x-direction is mapped to pitch-bend, and
y-direction to CC74.
A cool feature is the "slide", where the pitch-bend is used to slide
between all notes in a row.
To allow individual pitch and CC74 values for each note, it sends each
note on a separate midi-channel ("MPE"):
http://www.rogerlinndesign.com/implementing-mpe.html
Bitwig has added support for this, and there is 20 presets in version
1.3.11, where this is used (tag: linnstrument). The LinnStrument
controller is not recognized automatically on Linux in version 1.3.11,
but it can be configured manually, and then it works fine. Note that
both midi-in and midi-out has to be configured, if not there is no
sound! It should look like this: https://ibin.co/2msBJVgpKtf9.png
Now I would like to also use it with the free Linux synths.
Here's what I have been able to make work this far.
Synthv1:
PME works reasonably well: I can play polyphonic in MPE mode, but it
tends to miss the "note off"s.
I can get the slide to work, by setting
<param index="36" name="DEF1_PITCHBEND">2</param>
<param index="78" name="DEF2_PITCHBEND">2</param>
is a preset.
Zynaddsubfx:
I can not get MPE to work.
Sending only on one channel, and setting PWheelB.Rng to 2400 cents, I
cant get the sliding to work, but only when playing with one finger.
If I enable MPE on the LinnStrument there is only an occasional sound,
when it happens to send on the channel, that Zyn is listening on.
I'll love to hear if other LinnStrument users have been able to do more
with any of the free synths on Linux.
All the best,
Thomas
Does anyone know of mutterings about a possible LAC2022?
I'm suffering severe withdrawal symptoms here :(

A self-generative patch in VCV Rack v2. Nothing extraordinary going on,
just some pleasant listening.
Enjoy, comments welcome.

Hey hey,
my latest downbeat electronica track, including real live Rav drum:
https://youtu.be/rDyKZPJbGXk
OGG version:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/0wyjrjvjt5d4tnr/when_everythings_been_said.ogg
Instrumentation: Yoshimi for pads and bells, LinuxSampler for percussion,
Mellotron, fretless bass, main drums and Piano. The piano is commercial, the
drums were created from incidental sounds which were a giveaway/teaser (rocks
and a wicker chair). Csound for the physically inspired piano. In hardware:
MiniBrute 2s and Neutron for basses, Microwave XT for additional pads.
The Rav drum was recorded at a friend's house. I cut four loops from it and
fired those with LinuxSampler. This experience was the inspiration to create
the Csound handpan instrument.
Plugins: g2reverb, Zita-reverb, CAPS plate 2x2, Calf Reverb and many
additional plugins from SWH, CAPS< TAP, Calf, Invada and Fons' plugins for
chorus, delays, EQ'ing, compression and colouring.
Enjoy! Feedback is, as ever, welcome. :)
Best wishes,
Jeanette

Here is a late musical seasonal greeting to Linux Audio.
(I wrote and recorded this track already on Christmas Day and intended
to improve the mix before publishing, but since I have to work this week
and it would probably not get finished until next year, I decided to put
it out as is.)

eighties that never was**

Synopsis: A young woman from western Europe spends a year in communist
era Bohemia (then Czechoslovakia), where she has family ties, as a farm
hand. She lives on the premises of a small castle, which belongs to an
impoverished family of aristocratic roots. When she meets the young son
of the family, their initial mutual attraction is cut short by
misunderstandings caused by prejudice and differences in upbringing.
Over time though, he wins her heart by showing her the beauty of the
Bohemian country side and the joys of a simple rural life while she
enchants him with her classical flute playing and brings him to overcome
his introvert nature by introducing him to Italo disco dancing.
:)
Composed and produced by Christopher Arndt on Christmas Day 2021.
Recorded in Ardour 6 DAW on Linux with a Yamaha Reface DX FM synthesizer
into a Focusrite Scarlett 6i6 audio interface.
No samples, no filters, just one synth.
Reface DX patches by Christopher Arndt and from SoundMondo.com (list on
request).
Some EQ ("EQ10Q") used on the horn sound, IR reverb using "LSP
Impulsnachhall" and Samplicity M7 "Boston Hall A" impulse response, and
multi-band EQ and compression on master bus using "ZamAudio ZaMultiCompX2".
Share & Enjoy!

Thanks. Returns the same information the older script did.
Although I installed the Q1 GUI, how do you run it? Not important, I
prefer the script, but just asking.

Does anybody know of a tool that I could feed audio in to, and have it output an "interpreted" video? Not necessarily a "waveform" of the audio, more something abstract, like an acid-tripped audio fractal or something.
Thanks!
