Something just occurred to me. Does anyone know if this is transmitted any faster if going computer to computer rather than between hardware devices. So do you get lower latency? Also what about keyboards that work entirely as MIDI over USB connecting to a computer? -- Will J Godfrey http://www.musically.me.uk Say you have a poem and I have a tune.

Yoshimi 1.5.8 released!

by Will Godfrey

V 1.5.8 - Kingfisher Bright flash of colour. The most significant changes in this release are all usability ones. At the request of one user (and agreement of several others) some of the microtonal settings are now MIDI-learnable, and appropriately highlighted. The CLI can now open and close instances, and switch between them. There is a new 'Solo' type 'TwoWay' this works in a similar way to 'Loop', but (apart from zero) values less than 64 step from right to left, instead of the other way round. The highlighting is also a bit better. Both 'Loop' and 'TwoWay' also have debounce protection of approximately 60mS. The CLI can now clear a part's instrument. A fairly obvious option that somehow got missed. In the Banks windows Instruments can now be swapped between banks and bank roots. Banks can also be swapped between roots. This is an extension using exactly the same controls as those already available for in-bank swaps. The latest feature is autoloading instances. With this enabled, any instance that was open when the main one is closed will be re-opened on the next run. If these instances were set for starting with their default state, then all those settings will be performed. Therefore, a very comprehensive and detailed session can be started with a single command! A lot of the documentation supplied with Yoshimi has been updated, including the Advanced User Manual. Yoshimi source code is available from either: https://sourceforge.net/projects/yoshimi Or: https://github.com/Yoshimi/yoshimi Our list archive is at: https://www.freelists.org/archive/yoshimi To post, email to yoshimi(a)freelists.org -- Will J Godfrey http://www.musically.me.uk Say you have a poem and I have a tune.

yoshimi does not function

by tom haddington

Hello, All-- I have been unsuccessful getting Yoshimi to work in Ubuntu Studio 18.04. This has been the case for the Yoshimi included in the distro, 1.5.7, and 1.5.8. When starting, the GUI and splash screen appear. The splash screen does not disappear, and the GUI is completely frozen. the command, "killall yoshimi," fails to eliminate the GUI. i'm sorry i can't be of more help, as no error messages have been generated. If anybody else has had this experience, i'd be happy to hear any solutions you've learned. Thank you! tom

Hi, Will! >Did you compile youself? >If so, did you check the dependency list? Yes, i did compile from source, and yes, all dependencies were in place. i just rechecked them to be sure. All dependencies are in place.

yoshimi does not function

by tom haddington

>Are you running with jack or alsa? >What window manager are you using? i've been running with jack. i'm going to reboot and try with alsa. Since it's ubuntu studio, i'm pretty sure the window manager is xfce. i recompiled, with better success. Yoshimi did connect to jack. However, the GUI is still frozen. i'll reboot and try alsa.

[ANN] Qtractor 0.9.1 - A Pre-LAC2018 Release Frenzy Finale!

by Rui Nuno Capela

Hello again, The Pre-LAC2018 [8] release frenzy is now complete... Qtractor 0.9.1 (pre-lac2018 beta) is out! Change-log: - Displaying MIDI note(on) events as diamonds instead of simple rectangles (aka. Drum Mode) is now being introduced as an optional MIDI track property (Drums) and as a MIDI clip editor (piano-roll) visual option (cf. View/Drum Mode). - Extended multi-selection is now supported on all the Connections client/port lists, allowing for multiple (dis)connections at once. - Added LV2 UI sample-rate option support. - Always reset all internal dedicated MIDI controllers, eg. MIDI track volume (CC#7) and panning (CC#10), on Transport/Panic and after rendering export to aud1io (ie. Track/Export Tracks/Audio...) as needed to reset MIDI instrument plugins to nominal session state. - Fix, detect and preserve MIDI Bank-select method across MIDI track/clips editing operations. - Fixed MIDI track and clip note min/max display range while recording and also when duplicating tracks. - Added "All files (*.*)" filter to every file requestor dialog, wherever missing. - The tiny zoom-magnifier icons have been revamped. Description: Qtractor [1] is an audio/MIDI multi-track sequencer application written in C++ with the Qt framework [2]. Target platform is Linux, where the Jack Audio Connection Kit (JACK [3]) for audio and the Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA [4]) for MIDI are the main infrastructures to evolve as a fairly-featured Linux desktop audio workstation GUI, specially dedicated to the personal home-studio.

[Music] Fog

by jonetsu

Hello, This time around, in sharp contrast with the previous "Summer Theme", is a rather spacey piece, with long pad flights, some thump-thump kick drum in the distance, some high hat also in the distance, some voices, a synth that does some kind of a solo of some sort, a beat that comes and goes, all in all some kind of fog that covers through which some things are heard. https://soundcloud.com/nominal6/fog Cheers.

How to change the settings of LAU

by Louigi Verona

Hey everyone! A while ago I stopped receiving LAU emails. Maybe it was due to the linuxaudio.org hack. Then I resubscribed, but now I am getting emails in bulk, which is very inconvenient for me and I have no idea how to respond to individual emails from the digest. I tried going to the LAU list website and logging in to maybe change the configuration somehow, but I couldn't login - I think I forgot the correct password for this. Can someone please help? All I want is to start receiving LAU emails normally, not in a digest form. -- Louigi Verona https://www.patreon.com/droning https://louigiverona.com/
