hmm, updated to yoshimi 1.3.3 in debian sid repository AND

by david

it shows only one bank? I go Instrument > Show banks, it shows me only a bank named "#42. yoshimi" I go Instrument > Show instruments, it shows me a bank named "42. yoshimi" - and that's it. Clicking arrow beside bank name does nothing. Clicking Refresh banks changes nothing. Oh, so now I have to select a bank, click Make Current, and then I can see the banks? Hmm, seems to me that it would be nice if there was a single "bank" that listed everything. Finding an instrument now means first figuring out which bank it might be in, making that bank the current one, then looking through that bank hoping it contains the instrument I'm looking for ... I think the other way was less cumbersome. Haven't time now to see what impact this might have one instruments in my Rosegarden studio setup, will have to see how that works out. Thanks for the update, still the neatest sound maker in the collection! -- David W. Jones gnome(a)hawaii.rr.com authenticity, honesty, community http://dancingtreefrog.com

Maybe we could add a Search function - type in "Violin", hit Search, get list of all instrument names containing search phrase, regardless of "bank" number? David W.

[OT] qt4/qt5 on same system ?

by Dave Phillips

Greetings, Is anyone here successfully running a parallel installation of Qt4 and Qt5 ? I want to install the latest SuperCollider3 which now requires Qt5. I'm on Fedora 19 with Planet CCRMA extensions, it's been happy with Qt4, but now I need to consider installing Qt5. The question: Can I go ahead and install Qt5 in parallel with the existing Qt4 ? If there are known problems with Linux audio software perhaps someone is already aware of them and can warn me before I take action. I'm particularly wary of this kind of thing. I recently hosed an entire system during a routine installation of components from the F19 repos - yes, in certain circumstances Fedora will quietly let you destroy your system without warning - and I'd like to avoid a repeat of that scenario. Best, dp

Travel to LAC

by Will Godfrey

Is anyone familiar with Frankfurt Flughafen bahnhof? I have to change trains there coming from Brussels then on to a regional train to Mainz. There is only a 15 minute difference between arrival and departure, so if at all possible I'd like to get some idea in advance of where to go! The return journey is much simpler through connections I know. -- Will J Godfrey http://www.musically.me.uk Say you have a poem and I have a tune. Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
