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?

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
Hi folks,
Honestly hope I ask for what I need clearly.
I understand that there are some music programs that a low one to play
notes, using their computer keyboard.
Although I do not use Linux, Wondering, assuming I am correct of
course, if anyone knows of a mac option for this?
Thanks,
Karen
This has been progressively suffering with low numbers and we nearly lost it
completely. This month's theme is man V machine. As usual the definition is
pretty open to interpretation :P
So if you used to contribute, think about doing so again. If you never have,
give it a go. It's just for fun really.

Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
I'm trying to get Surge XT running on debian/bullseye
Standalone: The GUI seems very unresponsive, and test audio stutters
Plugin (in reaper): doing long 2 octave bends from linnstrument is sluggish
as well, the final part of the bend is happening after the finger has
stopped.
Tried both the latest deb, lightly build and build from source.
Any suggestions?

Old cd players just had play, eject, next, prev etc.
and the cd drive had audio outputs.
Now that cd drives is on sata, thoose audio outputs
does not exist any more, so thoose programs doesn't
work any more.
Is that any current cd player that is simple like the
old ones that works with current cd drives ?
E.g. there is too many clicks in clementine to just
play a cd.

I am attempting to build the latest code from the Edisyn project, a
cross-platform synth patch editor in java.

My best guess is that there is an optional package involving Unix-style
system specific functions for file handling exceptions, but I searched my
distribution repositories (Fedora) for "java" then grepped "nio" "file"
"exception" and "unix" but only found asynchronous network IO packages,
nothing that looked like a package providing the file exception functions
that seem to be missing.
Either I am missing some name in the error messages and not searching for
the right package, or something else is going on and I completely
misinterpreted the error messages.
Using the Java 17 JDK (latest LTS release,
java-17-openjdk-17.0.4.0.8-1.fc36) and the git head from Edisyn downloaded
today (1 Aug).
Anyone else have experience with either building this package, or similar
Java error messages and could point me in the right direction?

Ladies and Gentlemen,
hereby the Laborejo Software Suite releases updates for its programs in
the hope to be useful in your musical toolbox.
You can now download Laborejo 2.2.0
https://laborejo.org/downloads/laborejo-2.2.0.tar.gzhttps://laborejo.org/downloads/laborejo-2.1.0.tar.gz
Laborejo (Esperanto: Workshop) is a MIDI sequencer based on classical
music notation. Its main purpose is to compose and produce "traditional" music,
such as instrumental pieces, soundtracks and other music normally played
back by samplers. Working in Laborejo is very fast and efficient by using
a combination of midi input and typing.
Changelog Highlights:
* Add SOLO functionality alongside the existing audible/mute layer. Control via shortcuts, track editor, or track-list widget
* New function to create a new empty block from an existing one, that has reserved duration same as the original one.
* Add more time signatures to the quick-insert dialog: 8/4, three variants of 7/8, two variants of 5/4 and more. Also reorder and better labels.
* Add context menu to move CC Blocks to start or end of a track
* Fix splitting of notes that were created by a previous split.
* Block Mode: Fix invisible block labels and graphics when dragging blocks (adopting to unannounced Qt regressions once again)
* Barlines more visible
* Undo for initial metrical instruction and key sig (track editor)
* Prevent block operations to jump to the cursor position in the GUI. Less jumpy.
* Show first block name in track-list widget
* Overhaul Key Signature GUI dialog to indicate "Deviation" better, instead of absolute accidentals.
* Various small fixes, like typos in variable names and wrong string quotes. Small things can crash as well.
* Update German translation
* Lilypond Export:
* Add transposition of the whole score to properties and metadata dialog
* Only set tempo markings in parenthesis when user provided a string like Allegro
* Add lilypond template filename to properties and metadata dialog. Will be symlinked into the session dir automatically.
You can find all releases as sources here.
