[music] Heroine (soundtrack/synth/baroque)

by Jeanette C.

Hey hey, I'd like to present: Heroine https://youtu.be/rOKoHH8cuCM OGG version: https://www.dropbox.com/s/df3qm4olf2rvmjv/heroine.ogg Special mentions go to Yoshimi for superb plucks, additive synthesis and indispensible layering. Also to the Roland JV-1080 sound module for a powerful architecture, especially considering its year of birth in 1994. Add LinuxSampler, more hardware and the usual stock of great effects and we have a song. This song has two distinct inspirations: technically it is a study in fades and blends and there is still lots more to learn on that score. Musically, there was an old piece I always wanted to explore in a soundtrack like setting. The whole track works up to it, even though the master piece itself only gets a short but explicit spot at the end. Curious? I hope so. :) Best wishes, 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 All you people look at me like I'm a little girl.

Another stab at OSC control of non-mixer

by Jonathan Brickman

Greetings, all. I'm trying to take another stab at OSC control of non-mixer. I've tried a few times over years, always using specific methods given on list or various web sites. I did it again, still no dice. Perhaps someone might be able to tell what I'm doing wrong. First of all, the non-mixer setup I'm using is pictured here: https://img.onl/IQ1Ds8 One of its strips is named "DistortionOutput", another "CleanOutput". The goal is to get outside input somehow (this is a headless design, am currently thinking programmable keypad for maximum simplicity), with two different scripts to spawn, "DistortionMode.py" and "CleanMode.py". My latest attempt, was to run non-mixer with the appropriate command line option for the port, and then once running, to run the script below. It was thought that it would turn the volume of DistortionOutput to zero. However, the script freezes once run and no change is observed. I have made sure the OS firewall is off (Manjaro seems to have it off by default) and have tried a telnet to localhost at that port also, no connection. Thoughts, anyone? -- *Jonathan E.

New soundbank for Yoshimi

by Jeanette C.

Hey hey, today I released Jeanny's Genius for Yoshimi, version 0.5 with 68 single instruments - including three drumkits - and three patchsets. http://juliencoder.de/sound/jg_yoshimi_patches-0.5.tar.bz2 All sounds are categorised and include contact information in the copyright field, in case of issues or feedback. The sounds have been tested with 2.1.2, but should be compatible with Yoshimi 1.5.x. This version includes the star choir patches, based on live vocal recordings. These can be heard prominently in "Lovestruck": https://youtu.be/QX0TnD4VMzQ As well as all Yoshimi sounds used in Silver, my entry for the lst open source Nexus Music Challenge: https://youtu.be/vJLG409oDek And the sounds used from Yoshimi's birthday song: https://youtu.be/0luuMWOYBV0 Share and enjoy, 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 Here I go, on my own now <3 (Britney Spears)

Any 'transport aware' jack-play alternatives?

by John Murphy

I have a slight problem using jack-play since I'm using Pipewire and I wonder if anyone knows of an alternative I could try. pw-play is unsuitable because it isn't transport aware. I reported the bug / problem I have at: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pipewire/pipewire/-/issues/2089 It's an odd one. -- John.

Connect pipewire to running JACK server

by Jeanette C.

Hey hey, this is only tangential to the other big pipewire thread. I wish to run pipewire on top of my running jack server as a replacement for pulseaudio, since that somehow stopped working and now I have no speech output from the desktop/Orca. I read that one has to change alsa-monitor.conf for the media session manager. Changing: alsa.jack-device = false to alsa.jack-device = true Which I did, but the next step of using pw-cli to connect or enable it is unclear to me. I will need a commandline way of achieving this. At the moment pipewire is still using ALSA and that means the built-in soundcard which has no connections. Has someone here managed this?

Bass

by Raffaele Morelli

Hi, not new to the list but been out for a "while" :-) I am having fun with Ardour since last few months and wondering what do you use for bass guitar on your channel strip. For eg. I am currently using ACE fluid synth + TamgampX Is there any plugin I am not aware of?

Any csound experts here ?

by Fons Adriaensen

Hello all, I'm trying to help someone (OSX user trying out Linux) use Csound with Jack. What I'd need to know is which are the Csound command line options to * run Csound with Jack, * using Ninp input ports and Nout output ports, * not autoconnecting any ports, if that is possible at all... TIA, -- FA

mididings Python woes; workaround or fix?

by Jonathan E. Brickman

Mididings may be the only JACK-api MIDI router/filter tool around; if there is another I'd love to know about it. On the other hand t was working just dandy until, I think, some changes to both Python3 and legacy support for Python2. I was using its Python3 AUR adaptation (mididings-git) under Manjaro, but then after package upgrades, it began to fail at 'from mididings import *' (see below). I found similar failures in Ubuntu 20, and found different failures in both when I tried setting up to use Python2 (which obviously we would rather not be doing). The failure is similar to a number of failures reported starting with Python 3.10, so this may be related, but I was not able to figure out how to apply those workarounds to the mididings source, I tried several different variations, including a number of the different forks in github. Thoughts, anyone? I found Pigiron and Jamrouter and puredata, but none of these appear to do JACK. I'm using pipewire now, so I could theoretically revise the whole rig around ALSA MIDI, but all of the apps needing MIDI use JACK, and mididings is so elegant...
