Greetings,
My whimsical offering to the current One Synth Challenge at KVR :
https://soundcloud.com/davephillips69/3-breaths-for-helm-kvr-osc90
Three atmospheric soundings using nothing but Matt Tytel's Helm.
Sequenced with Bitwig 1.3.12, audio mixed and rendered in Ardour5.
Downloads enabled. Voting hasn't started yet, btw, I just wanted to put
the notice out there.
I know that Rob van den Berg (aka rgvhdberg) has submitted a piece. Any
other Linux Helm users stepping up to the OSC ? There's still time to
enter, see http://www.kvraudio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=467516 for
the details.
Best,
dp
I'm looking for a command line tool that can determine the length
(duration in seconds) of a sound file using more than just the file
header.
The situation is that some of the files have incorrect headers.
The data is intact, and they play correctly, but if you attempt to
determine the length based solely on the header, it will be incorrect.
I've tried soxi, mediainfo, and ffprobe (on xubuntu 16.04), and all
seem to rely exclusively on the header.
soxi is good enough that it warns if there's a discrepancy between
what the header says and what is present in the file, in a message to
stderr, but the value to stdout (from soxi -D) is the incorrect header
value.
I suppose i could write code to parse soxi's error message, but would
much prefer to have some option to pass to the program that says "use
file length instead of header info in the event of a conflict".
TIA for any suggestions!

Hi
On request, I made a switchless wah plugin out of the GxWah.lv2
This means, the wah effect gets activated by moving the wah pedal and
slips in bypass, when the pedal isn't moved.
Attack and Release times could be chosen between 0.1ms and 1.4sec.
This may be useful when you drive the plug with a expression (or midi)
pedal, or, for automation strips in Qtractor or Ardour.

Hi list!
Here is my new song: Secret <https://soundcloud.com/xaccrocheur/secret>.
This morning the SoundCould announcement was retweeted by none other
than Sir Stan RIDGWAY
<https://twitter.com/philipyassin/status/762700853220405248>, and
considering that I basically decided to become a musician while
loop-listening to "Call of the West" back in 1982, there's an undeniable
sense of accomplishment here, so don't kill my buzz ;)
This is the 9th song in my "Faux Frogs" album
<https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLBvCHJWi9SXxIr3Zvv_9qygxuXv_F1pbb>,
one more to go (she's been almost ready for months now)
PS - if more and more people keep telling me that the lead voice is too
low, I'm going to be forced to do something about it. The problem is
that this very vocal take is a bit crappy (I just don't sing it really
good) and if I crank it even a notch, this will show :|
PPS - Everything goes into an IR modeled Lexicon 480L (using
Klangfalter) <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cC0GNYJcL4I> and boy, I
feel rich :)
PPS - My new album is almost ready, greetings from the studio!

Hi
For those interested, I've ported GxTuner to GTK3+ now.
GxTuner is a simple, analogue style guitar tuner, use the equal-tempered
scale at 440HZ
The reference pitch could be adjusted at command line and/or runtime in
a half tone range: 415Hz <-> 467Hz
The tuning range is from 20HZ to 1050HZ
If you've any problems building or running GxTuner with GTK3, please let
me know at the usual github issue tracker.
grab the source here:

Friends
I have recently upgraded my laptop to ubuntustudio 16.04 and I cannot
get my MobilePre working.
(It has USB ID 0763:200f)
The setup is the same as on my other machine running 12.04 (vanilla ubuntu).
On the 1604 I have tried it with and without running pulseaudio.
Have other people had problems with 16.04? I have a sinking feeling I
have a hardware problem

Dear all,
I have been using my Focusrite Scarlett 8i6 for a couple of years without
issues on a Linux Mint 17 laptop. I can use the sound card only via
Qjackctl (no ALSA out of the box).
Now, I have a new computer (shuttle xpc slim) on which I installed Linux
Mint 18.
The sound card is recognised by both Jack and cat /proc/asound/cards.
It even correctly appears in the system sound preferences, which did not
happen in Mint 17.
However, while the inputs work, there's no output. I've tested with a bunch
of audio software, such as Pd, Ardour, Hydrogen, etc..
Interestingly, if, immediately after testing with Mint 18, I plug the sound
card back to my Mint 17 laptop, at first, the sound card does not produce
output. I have to power off the sound card and re-plug it, then it works.
I would need this to work only with Jack, I'm not looking for an ALSA fix.
I know in the past three years there has been a few ALSA patches to make
this range of Focusrite work, and I think most of those patches are now in
the mainline kernel. Although I'm not familiar with this.
Does anything I could try come to mind?
[SYSTEM INFO]
Mint 18
kernel: 4.4.0-31-lowlatency
alsa-base 1.0.25
libasound, etc.. 1.1.0
thanks in advance!
best wishes,
