Hello LAU, I'm happy to announce my first bandcamp released mini album/EP named "Four" It consists of four calm and meditative tracks I made around 1990 using a Fostex X-15 four track cassette recorder. Listen to it at http://edogawa.bandcamp.com/album/four Per se this music hasn't got anything to do with linux audio, except being digitized under linux, nevertheless I see myself also as linux musician these days, so I hope it's ok to post that here. For the flash-less I can supply a link to my dropbox, https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/42502696/musik/Four/index.html I'm curiously awaiting your feedback, and I hope you enjoy! Edgar

More old crazed jazz

by Ken Restivo

Cleaning out hard drives again. Found this little gem, covered with obvious mistakes, (which is why it was never really published) but still interesting if you like weird jazz in odd meters: http://storage.restivo.org/music/Cronies/suite-2007-11-06.ogg Linux content is all the keyboards, which are: fluidsynth, two crazy AMS patches, jconv, jack-rack, etc. Warning: it's 18 minutes long. Part of it is in 11/4. There's also a nice windshield wiper moment where 3 bars of 5/4 are overlaid on 2 bars of 5/4. The end of this epic beast consists of a cover of "Morning Bell" by Radiohead. -ken

Some music made with linux, from the vaults

by Ken Restivo

Found these cleaning an old hard drive, all made with Linux, Fluidsynth, Ardour, PHASEX, JACKRACK, seq24, jace, and probably others. Techno-ish and featuring PHASEX heavily: http://storage.restivo.org/music/krmusic/semipublished/breakfast-at-one-0.1… Funky in 9/4 and with enough shifting patterns that the 1 is pretty much arbitrary (the way I like it), and also using PHASEX in the background: http://storage.restivo.org/music/krmusic/semipublished/allure-oddmeter-0.1.… These are both from August 2007, according to the git history. Enjoy. -ken

Installing Ardour 3.5.308 on Linux Mint 14 64bits

by jonetsu＠teksavvy.com

I just installed ardour3 64bit-3.5.308-dbg. The installation showed: !!! WARNING !!! - The version of Jack on this system is too old! Using an old version of Jack is not recommended. Please update Jack for best results. System Jack version: Recommended minimum versions: Jack1 - 0.121.3 Jack2 - 1.9.8 But then the following is installed: % dpkg -l | grep jack (other bits removed) ii jackd 5 ii jackd2 1.9.8~dfsg.4+20120529git007cdc37-2ubuntu2 Is there any problem ?

Freeverb and Ardour 3

by jonetsu＠teksavvy.com

Hello, Since some time now the Freeverb in Ardour3 (I mean, not included with Ardour, but used by) interface does not allow the control of some sliders. Also, the sound does not seem so good as soon as it is included in the post-fader chain. cmt 1.16-1. For that matter, I tried the TAP Reverb yesterday and found it sounded OK. Mayve freeverb is not as good nowadays ?

Live video of that progressive jazz monstrosity

by Ken Restivo

Here it is, played live: https://vimeo.com/78583355 I was playing playing bass and keyboards simultaneously there; our bass player had another gig that night. My Linux laptop was behind me, not seen; this was after I'd set up the MIDI keyboard to control all the synths. But it was right before I set up buttons on the Novation to switch patches quickly, so I was twiddling knobs to cycle through them. Synths/tools played in the video are fluidsynth, jack-rack, jconv, many LADSPA plugins, nekostring, and AMS. We were set up on stage wrong; the drummer and I couldn't see each other, which annoyed both of us, and there were all kinds of missteps because of that. But this is the best live video I have of that peice. If you enjoyed the studio version, you might like the live version too. -ken

aj-snapshot

by Ralf Mardorf

I read a thread about issues, when restoring connections at jack devel [1], that reminds me to send a request. I won't quote the complete thread ;). However, isn't it possible to care about the IRQ of several equal sound cards, when restoring MIDI connections? The "name" of my TerraTec cards is the same for both cards I use, but the IRQ for those cards is different for both and always the same for both. IOW neither the QJackCtl patchbay nor aj-snapshot are able to distinguish between the equal names of the sound cards, but theoretically it should be possible to take care about the IRQs of those sound cards to distinguish them. [1] -------- Forwarded Message -------- From: Ralf Mardorf <ralf.mardorf(a)alice-dsl.net> To: jack-devel(a)lists.jackaudio.org Subject: Re: [Jack-Devel] 'connect' vs 'patchbay' and the problems of everything not working as expected.......... Date: Sun, 26 Jan 2014 21:01:10 +0100 Mailer: Evolution 3.10.3 "Asio4All" :S On Linux it's better to use aj-snapshot, than to use QJackCtl, but even aj-snapshot can't restore all connections, if you use several equal sound cards. The QJackCtl patchbay "rules" do work in many cases, but aj-snapshot will restore what you definitively set-up, assumed you don't use several equal devices. Isn't there something similar to aj-snapshot for Windows too?

OT-ish: multi-touch screen for linux audio projects

by Ken Restivo

Looks like it might be useful for custom linux instruments, using a Raspberry Pi or BeageBone, or even just for controlling Ardour on a PC: http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/pitouch-hdmi-multitouch-monitor-for-raspb… Endorsement/disclosure: I have done some linux and Android development work for this guy in the past, and helped him research linux support for this project (which was very quick and easy: the multitouch is built in to kernel 3.2 and later, works out of the box). The audio version uses HDMI, but for input one could use an external USB interface (with the USB hub version on a Pi/Beagle), or something more custom. If used with a PC instead, then one could use FFADO, etc. -ken

a question reading linux on stage

by Brendan Jones

Hey all, I've been reading with interested that some of you use netbooks/small form factor pc's/rasberry pi's on stage for live performance. I'm currently developing an LV2 plugin and am wondering what the lowest common denomination screen resolution I should be shooting for. During performance, what if anything, do you actually need to see apart from what the the current preset is? Is there a use case for making all parameters for a synth plugin (for example) available/accessible on screen, or using midi learn to hide/unhide parameter tabs etc. Examples of current programs plugins would be great. cheers, Brendan
