Hey hey,
my latest song, a ballad mixing jazz, baroque and psychedelic elements:
https://youtu.be/e6jDCkw0vIk
OGG version:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/t02b13d6jiyto6o/suddenly.ogg
This is mostly LinuxSampler with a touch of Yoshimi and of course setBfree.
The lyrics you'll find at the end of this mail, in case you'd want to. :)
It took a lot of production, but no special tools. It's a melting pot of
reverb with jconvolver for short ambiences, zita-reverb, g2verb and TAP plate
2x2.
Best wishes,
Jeanette
*** Lyrics ***
Safe and inclement,
Where the rain laden days are incessant.
Time has no significance.
And the seasons pass me by...
No pain, no luck to breach the sky.
-
Suddenly, it's spring.
Her name makes my heart sing.
She can't be here too soon.
Her kiss will make me swoon.
I watched as the days went by
Yet there was nothing to see.
The leaves of the calender turned,
But they held no meaning for me.
Tender smiles vanished into the void,
And gentle hands dropped away.
The day I almost missed my chance,
When I barely caught her final glance.
-
And suddenly it's spring.
Her name makes my heart sing.
She wasn't here too soon.
How her kisses make me swoon.
Safe and inclement
I will no longer be,
Since there is life and love to see.
-
'Cause suddenly it's spring.
Your name makes my heart sing.
You weren't here too soon.
Your presence makes me swoon.

I thought love was just a tingling of the skin <3

Hey hey,
this is my latest song, a very quiet song balancing on the edge between gentle
electro and acoustic downtempo:
https://youtu.be/Q9ErBjaMTZM
OGG Version:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/m3wqo4gg07wuqe2/ends_of_the_earth.ogg
On the Linux side I used Csound with my handpan instrument, one conga like
sound and a wobbly pad and many effects and rhythmic elements. There are also
field recordings of rain and crickets. LinuxSampler for piano, djembe and
table and Yoshimi for one of the choir layers. My hardware wavetable synth
served for teh phasey pad, FM-like bass and the other choir layer and twice
analogue goodnees for the deep main basses.
No new plugins in the production, but more attention to perceived depth.
And finally, here are the lyrics:
Sprite on the ice
In a mist laden dream.
Like rain from the skies,
You touch
And are gone with the stream.
Now, here...
I feel you close
Soft like a tear,
Sharp as a rose.
-
You're so near but far away,
Out of reach, across the seas.
Seeking you I sail astray,
I'll strive for you without cease.
Frozen and seared
By the rays of your moon.
My heart burns to dust
If I can't find you soon.
Here, now...
I make a vow.
I'll cross the earth,
Volcanoes and all... To you.
-
You're so near but far away,
Out of reach, across the seas.
Seeking you I sail astray,
I'll strive for you without cease.
Best wishes,
Jeanette

... About some useless information,
Supposed to fire my imagination <3
(Britney Spears)
Hey hey,
I'm looking for a LADSPA plugin that can add some slight colouration for the
bright modern pop sound. So far I found the CAPS Saturation plugin (ID 1771),
which I have used, but is rather heavy handed. There's the Valve Saturation
(ID 1209), which I also think is a strong effect. I haven't had any experience
with the Invada saturation nor the CAPS compressor/saturating limiter.
This is just the result of searching for "saturate" in all LADSPA plugin names
and parameters.
Does anyone have a good suggestion? Have you gone for that sound before?
Best wishes and thanks,
Jeanette

'pw-cli dump short link' was very handy, permitted build of a simple CLI
patch manager for Pipewire (see
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PipeWire#PipeWire_patch_sets_for_command_l…).
The 'dump' command appears to have been deleted. Anyone have a good
replacement, something which will generate a simple text list of
Pipewire links with both sides? 'pw-link -l' prints a list, but it's
not simple to parse...at least not for me :-)
Related: I keep trying to save patch sets in qpwgraph, but it only saves
one wire, out of dozens. Activated on, Exclusive tested on and off.Â
Clues, anyone?

For some time this has been bumping along the bottom, and we've come close to
losing it completely. There are no prizes these days, so it's all just a bit
of fun and a chance to hear what people are capable of on the 'other' platforms.
This month its a free-for-all, so please consider joining in. I think I'm the
only contributor running on Linux. It would be nice to have some company :)
The 'boiler plate' rules say 3 minutes max, but this month it's actually 4
minutes.

Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
