Hi list,
for anyone wondering why qjackctl 0.9.9-1 on Debain stable (bookworm)
does no longer display its icon in the systray after starting: The
package libqt6svg6 is required but sadly not a dependecy of the qjackctl
package.
Rui, thank you for your amazing work, using your tools for more than a
decade now!
best, Peter
Hello all,
Zita-resampler 1.11.2 is now available on
<http://kokkinizita.linuxaudio.org/linuxaudio/downloads/index.html>
This release adds Arm64 NEON code for the Resampler and Vresampler
classes, contributed by Nicolas Belin. On an Rpi3b this improves
throughput by a factor of around 2.5.
Ciao,

Arram Koth is a fabled ancient city somewhere in deep space. Many have
searched. Few have found it, and even fewer return.
The concert was a one-off affair.
The residents of all known civilizations were invited to send musicians to the
city, and free travel was offered for the less advanced. To the disappointment
of many, the denizens of a small blue planet failed to respond to any form of
contact.
Here is the finale where a representative of all the bands came together in an
improvisation. Obviously it took a little while for them all to get in the
'zone'!

Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
Hi Lorenzo,
I don't know if you've got anything planned for this month, but I just
realised the closing date is tomorrow!

Does anyone know where I can get hold of a selection of these key map files.
there are hundreds of .scl tuning ones but I cant find any keymap ones :(

Here is some Synthpop / Synthwave made with a Yamaha MODX synthesizer /
workstation and Ardour on Linux.

Composed, performed, recorded and produced by Christopher Arndt, 2022.
I had a draft for this track for several years until I decided to
finally finish it for a small performance I did at my own birthday last
summer. Because I didn't want to use an audio backing track, it had to
be done just using sounds from a Yamaha MODX (custom presets and some
imported SFX samples I made with other hardware synths, e.g. the Waldorf
Microwave XTk and Behringer Model-D).
After the event, I basically took the arrangement for the internal
sequencer of the MODX, which I had created as MIDI in Ardour, polished
it a a bit, recorded it to separate tracks and mixed and mastered it in
Ardour using various LV2 plugins as well.
Then I procrastinated for another year until I finally managed to make a
simple visualizer video for it now. The video was made with FOSS tools
as well (Blender, Gimp, Shotcut): For the waveform player at the bottom
I generated a waveform PNG with audiowaveform [1] with a transparent
background and used Gimp and some layering/masking techniques to get the
gradient effect. Then I imported the waveform image into Shotcut as a
video layer. Lastly I put another layer on top of that, consisting of a
semi-transparent black rectangle covering the whole waveform. I then
animated the X position of that rectangle with keyframes, so it slides
out to right side of the frame. The frequency spectrum animation under
the title is a built-in effect of Shotcut. The retro sunset animation
was created in Blender.
*Share & Enjoy!*

Hi,
I'm currently building a digital organ, using GrandOrgue as the main
software. I've also constructed
the console using Arduinos (Arduini?) to scan tab stops etc., but as
these are not recognised as music devices
I interpose instances of a program that reads/writes over a ttyUSB?
serial port and injects the
MIDI events into Jack.
After lots of trials, I'm getting close to working, but just noticed an
oddity.
When I connect up the console and route the incoming messages into jack
and then on to a midi monitor
I notice that Jack seems to be changing my note-on events slightly. I'd
been working on sending note-offs
as note-on(0x9?) with velocity=0, which has always worked in the past
for me, but Jack modifies these
to be genuine note-off messages, with velocity=64. Is there a good
reason for doing this?
It probably doesn't matter much, though I will now have to check in my
Arduino code for the official
note-off. Just an extra line of code, but thought it curious behaviour.

I'm familiar with the standard foot pedal design - single-axis. Are
there foot pedals that would work like two-axis joystick controllers on
keyboards?

You could try the pedals as used by some flight sims, these could give
you 3 axes. Pressing the tips normally controls the brakes separately
for L and R, these should be proportional but may be spring loaded and
come back up if you release them.
The two pedals can also slide forward and back - they are linked, as
one goes forward the other will go backwards. This normally controls
the rudder and nose wheel steering.
Could be fun trying these for music...

Hi,
I've recently (not quite sure when it started) had trouble with Pipewire. In my setup, I use all the drop-in replacements for JACK, pulseaudio, alsa, etc.
The problem is that sometimes, after a while, everything starts to sound like it has a bitcrusher/downsampling effect applied.
A typical path to the problem would be:
1 - start a browser tab that plays audio, pause the audio (everything sounds as expected)
2 - then start a youtube video in another tab while leaving the original tab open
3 - close the second tab
4 - go back to the first one and continue playback (everyhing sounds like there's a downsampling effect applied).
I usually have to restart the browser. But it's not only happening with browser applications. Muting and un-muting channels repeatedly in Ardour can
create the same problem.
I've observed this on two laptops, both running up-to-date Arch Linux with latest Pipewire, usually with the internal sound card.
Does anyone have a hint on how to solve this?
Best,
Niklas
