seeking a creative songwriting solution.

by Karen Lewellen

Hi imaginative folks, honestly, I do not have a direct Linux box itself, I use shells, because I have yet to find an adaptive workable tool...but I suppose scripting is possible. That being said, an idea in another Windows environment may work as well. what I am wondering is this. How possible might it be to use your singing voice for composing? what I mean is to sing the parts into your software of choice, then using that software to first add the orchestrations, playback etc., then produce that music in printable form? The last task is less important for the moment. getting my pieces out of my head, and into arranging and composing form is though. thoughts? Karen

Aeolus update

by Fons Adriaensen

Hello all, Version 0.10.1 of Aeolus is now available at the usual place: <http://kokkinizita.linuxaudio.org/linuxaudio/downloads/index.html> * Cleanup, maintenance, bug fixes. The biggest bug was probably that the 'instability' and 'release detune' parameters set in the stops editor were correctly stored into the *.ae0 files which contain the stop definitions, but NOT copied into the *.ae1 files which contain the precomputed wavetables and run-time synthesis parameters. So they would work only when the wavetables were recomputed on a running Aeolus instance (e.g. by changing tuning or temperament), and not when previously stored ones were reloaded. This makes quite a difference, as without the random delay modulation which is controlled by 'instability', the looped parts of the wavetables just become a static sound. You may also get stops-0.4.0. This includes some tweaks that I have done on my local copy over the past years, but is probably not much different from 0.3.0. You may need to modify your ~/.aeolusrc to use these. ------- Apart from bug fixes, this will be the last release using the current Aeolus framework. A completely new one is in the pipeline, but it still requires a lot of new code, testing and tuning. This will provide: * 'Chiff', the filtered noise that some pipes generate. I've finally found an algorithm that produces realistic results and that is efficient enough to work on lots of pipes. * Using multiple CPU cores. * Higher order Ambisonics output. * Binaural output (with optional head tracking). * Full separation of UI and synthesis processes, connected via a network connection. Ciao, -- FA

anyone with water cooled experience?

by Chris Caudle

I am interested in getting a computer quiet enough for audio work, but still powerful enough for video rendering as well. Usually the second part means noisy fans. Has anyone on the list used a water cooler system to move the heat out to a radiator that can be cooled with larger slow turning fans? I don't want to invest in a water cooling system only to find out after I get it that it hums loudly from the water pump, or the radiator fans aren't actually very quiet, or it makes gurgling or swooshing noises, etc. -- Chris Caudle

New LSP Plugins Look Great

by Brandon Hale

Hello all, I just wanted to make a thread to appreciate the new LSP audio plugins' guis. I was using my computer and loaded a plugin and didn't even know I had gotten an LSP audio plugin update on Arch. I was shocked to see how nice they look, these plugins look and react extremely nice. I was happy to also see they have scaling features. Overall, great job to the LSP audio plugin team and thank you for the great plugins, Brandon Hale

/dev/cpu_dma_latency or setting '*.max_cstate=0 idle=poll' and power management

by Jeremy Jongepier

Hello, How does opening /dev/cpu_dma_latency and disabling CPU sleep states or disabling CPU sleep states with kernel parameters relate to CPU frequency scaling? Does disabling sleep states also disable frequency scaling? Asking this because I'm attempting to rewrite the system_configuration wiki page. Thanks in advance! Best, Jeremy

[music] squeeze it in

by Atte Jensen

Hi Lurking more than posting, hope it's ok to share a track, I posted on my youtube channel yesterday... As some of you may know, I'm all into modular now, but use linux native reaper for recording performances in one pass, and subsequently mix everything. These last couple of months, I went ahead and also started editing the video in reaper, which is streamlining the process a lot. I generally suck at video stuff, so unfortunately I have to rely on kdenlive for color corrections and de-noising videos, which obviously adds an annoying extra step. I hope reaper will grow its video editing in the future, and be able to keep everything in one piece of software. The track is jazz-of-some-sorts, sequenced from the modular, with a few hardware synths thrown in for polyphony and other things impractical in a modular environment. Oh, and a keyboard solo on the blofeld (quite recent acquisition, absolutely love this synth). Anyways, hope you enjoy it: https://youtu.be/mJTssnleHUA Cheers -- Atte http://latestyoutube.a773.dk

[music] Dancing on 3rd street

by Jeanette C.

Hey hey, a new track, something upbeat and "empowering" for spring: https://youtu.be/GcYAcvUBaSM OGG version: https://www.dropbox.com/s/tzjupql023diuc7/dancing_on_3rd_street.ogg Loads of Yoshimi for the main FM-pluck/marimba and layering, Csound for vocal processing/alienating and risers. LinuxSampler for firing of those riser/fx and xylophone. More hardware for the rest and tons of LADSPA plugins for processing. I can only applaud the power in those plugins, especially for seeing what they did to the vocals. The first two or three vocal lines are more miss than hit, but it gets a lot better after that. Feedback is welcome. Beyond that: just enjoy!
