Hey hey,
Jeanette C & Benjamin Michael like to present: Dancing with a ghost
https://youtu.be/15q_FetgmCo
Direct OGG version:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/g4c50ui1kn65cvq/dancing_with_a_ghost.ogg
This is a 3D mix, so best listened to on headphones.
Composition: Jeanette C.
Lyrics and vocals: Benjamin Michael & Jeanette C.
3D mixing and production: Jeanette C.
Saxophones and video: Benjamin Michael (Images courtesey of pixbarbay)
The song was recorded in the usual way. Tracks were processed in Nama with my
favourite LADSPA and LV2 plugins. Then every clean/source track and
reverb/delay send was loaded into Csound to place it in a virtual 3D space,
using HRTF (Head related transfer function) with a modelled room.
Unfortunately, the resultant mix is not as much 3D as I would have wanted to,
but it was a great learning experience and Benjamin's spirited contributions
breathed life and energy into the song. I ended up with more than 100 tracks
having to go through Csound.
First lessons: don't start that big! Place groups of sounds in a few
predetermined spots. Don't move too many sounds. Define a 3D sonic space
before hand and work out the interaction between artificial reverb effects and
the "natural" room reverb.
It was a hugely enjoyable project, challenges and all. Thanks to Benjamin for
his invaluable collaboration!
Best wishes,
Jeanette

Hey hey,
last year a few European organisations for the blind held the ILSC
(International Low-vision Song Contest), which sounds very similar to another
competition, whilst offering a much wider variety of songs on a much smaller
stage. :) The winner of the German contest, now opened a remix competition on
his song. The voting for that competition is now open. With only 11
submissions the results are easily seen at a glance. I think that mine is the
only Linux made entry. I'd be very grateful if you had a look and maybe vote,
preferrably for me, :) but I think all votes will show interest and
appreciation.
Here's the youtube playlist:

And here the site to vote:
https://strawpoll.com/d8obcb3uo
Several votes are possible, voting is open until Friday, I think.
In my version I used Midish for sequencing and working out a few of the
harmonies from the original piano MIDI. Nama for recording, processing, mixing
and mastering.
LinuxSampler for drums, basses, piano, tron, harpsichord and guitar. setBfree
for the organ and two hardware synth for the monophonic lead parts.
Plugiins involved were: Zita-Reverb, g2reverb, CAPS Plate 2X2, 4-band
parametric filter, further CAPS, TAP, Calf and Invada plugins and even Barry's
Satan Maximizer for some effect. :)
Share and enjoy!
Best wishes,
Jeanette

Just as a matter of curiosity, is anyone still doing audio on the older dual
core machines (without hype-threading)?

Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
Hey hey,
Elements of Synth is an online Linux collaboration between Staffan Melin
a.k.a. Oscillator and Jeanette C.
We proudly present: wind
https://youtu.be/DeU8szdXwRg
Music: Staffan Melin and Jeanette C.
Vocals: Kajsa Olsson
Mixing: Jeanette C.
Software used: MuSE, Surge, Drumkv1, Yoshimi, Nama, Midish and Csound.
Additional drum layers and one arpeggio doubling with external hardware. In
the mixing many LADSPA plugins were used from SWH, Fons Adriaensen, Calf,
Invada, CAPS and TAP.
It is a joyful experience, with many opportunities for learning, opening up
and the joy of exploring other workflows and tools.
Best wishes,
Jeanette

No one in this world
Knows me better than you do
So diary I'll confide in you <3

I recently migrated from Fedora 32 to Fedora 35,
and since then, on Zoom meetings, my outgoing
audio to others is distorted, and is at a higher
pitch than normal.
One difference between Fedora 32 and Fedora 35
is that now, I am running several pipeline
daemons:
ivan 3352 1.0 0.1 347300 29180 ? S<sl 18:55 1:35 /usr/bin/pipewire
ivan 3353 0.0 0.2 641524 33308 ? S<sl 18:55 0:00 /usr/bin/wireplumber
ivan 3354 3.6 0.1 298088 30872 ? S<Lsl 18:55 5:37 /usr/bin/pipewire-pulse
What should I investigate? How shall I try and solve
this?
I see that Fedora 35 has installed the
pavucontrol (Pulse Audio Volume Control)
utility, but will that still help if I am running
the /usr/bin/pipewire-pulse daemon?
Thank you for your time.
Ladies and Gentlemen,
hereby the Laborejo Software Suite releases maintenance updates for its programs in
the hope to be useful in your musical toolbox.

I have a lenovo desktop computer which I cannot make sound work
on, what am I missing ?
It's a HDA AD1882 "sound card", but alsamixer says "no card".
alsa-info, kernel config and lenovo doc (see p.80) in:
http://aspodata.se/tmp/sound/
///
I run with static /dev (no udev) and
boot directly to disk (no initrd).
