Hello all, I wanted to turn your attention to a really cool project I found while browsing the internet: Network-audio-controller <https://github.com/chris-ritsen/network-audio-controller>. It is a CLI-based alternative to dante controller that I recently got to try out at my workplace where almost every speaker array we have is implemented with dante. With this python program, I was able to view other dante devices on my work's network. It can also apparently make connections as well, though I didn't have success with that with my couple of minutes of testing. As one of the only Linux users at my workplace, it was really cool to set my computers NIC to link-local, join the network, and view the audio devices and its connections. Anyways, check it out if you're interested and know you can at least view your dante network and connections if you are a Linux user. Thank you very much for your time, Brandon Hale

[music] two soundtrack pieces

by Jeanette C.

Hey hey, it's two for the price of one today. :) First here is Fog and white roses: https://youtu.be/ilWhMlOX9fo OGG version: https://www.dropbox.com/s/st7pw4gdzy1cpju/fog_and_white_roses.ogg A little piece of incidental music I wrote for the telling of a fairytale (the Chinese nightingale). And here is sea of pain: https://youtu.be/nzAV4ySWOdg OGG version: https://www.dropbox.com/s/1p8go50em55pia9/sea_of_despair.ogg This soundtrack-like piece I wrote on a really bad day to get the sadness out of my system. This one is almost entirely done in Yoshimi, with a very subtle layer of VPO3 strings in LinuxSampler. Both pieces are quite different, in that they are straightforward and painted in broad strokes. Raw emotion rather than involved polyphony. I hope you enjoy them.

Resetting USB MIDI cables

by Jeanette C.

Hey hey, I have an older USB to MIDI adapter cable, a UA0037 (probably LogiLink, sold as Conrad Electronic). The manual does not suggest any SysEx capabilitiies to reset/clear it. Sometimes it gets problems with SysEx transfer to/from the connected MIDI device and will no longer pass SysEx data. The cable/adapter will not directly react to a device inquiry "F0 7E 7F 06 01 F7" nor does a simple dump solve it: amidi -p XXX --dump Is there perhaps a trick to flush or reset such adapters? I can pull the cable from the USB port and plug it in again, yet it's at the back of the computer underneath the desk which is cumbersome and due to many USB devices being connected through HUBs there is no other place to plug it in. Best wishes and thanks for any hints, Jeanette -- * Website: http://juliencoder.de - for summer is a state of sound * Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMS4rfGrTwz8W7jhC1Jnv7g * Audiobombs: https://www.audiobombs.com/users/jeanette_c * GitHub: https://github.com/jeanette-c You should never try to change me I can be nobody else And I like the way I am <3 (Britney Spears)

MIDI monitor on Ubuntu Studio 20.04

by Brian Hagen

Hello, Seeing the benefits of MIDI-OX with Windows, I looked for an alternative that will run on Linux. I was able to get the Kmidimon installed on my Ubuntu Studio 18.04, which I use for business admin activities. (This I did as a test). Going to the production machine, Ubuntu Studio 20.04, I found that apparently, this app cannot be installed there. I have searched for other app to use, and not found anything useful. I have copied the error messages from the install attempt as a reference. Comment is invited. -- Install attempt results: sudo apt-get install kmidimon Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Package kmidimon is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source E: Package 'kmidimon' has no installation candidate ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ (System info via 'uname-a'): uname -a Linux M78-Ubuntu-Studio 5.15.0-58-lowlatency #64~20.04.1-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT Fri Jan 6 18:45:25 UTC 2023 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux Brian

niceness of Xorg regarding dropouts?

by Peter P.

Hi, I just read about a possibly outdated advice to increase the nice value of Xorg (currently 19 on my Debian stable system) to avoid audio dropouts when switching desktops etc. Can anyone comment on the usefulness or experiences with changing it (where would one change it?)? Thanks in advance! Peter
