Hey hey,
I'd like to announce the release of "The queen is dead":
https://youtu.be/otTwVsenZ0I
or OGG audio download:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/p0wwhfdf9zzarbp/the_queen_is_dead.ogg
There is also a "making off" or walkthrough, where I talk about the writing
and production and my workflow/environment a little bit:
https://youtu.be/TZBVGK_z0H0
You can further download the MIDI sequencing session, with pritned out MIDI
file, LinuxSampler LSCP script and more here:
http://juliencoder.de/sound/the_queen_is_dead.zip
This song was written and produced as an entry for Loopop's "mega contest".
The idea is to only use samples he recorded from unreleased synths at
Superbooth 2021. No genre restrictions and the samples are available as SFZ
and Decent Sampler, amonst others.
The song itself meanders between soundtrack, romantic impression and clean
baroque. The fugue is quite short, but it's there, in all its three voices. :)
Plugins used: g2reverb, CAPS C* PlateX2, L/C/R delay, Glame Lowpass Filter and
Glame Highpass Filter from the SWH plugin collection, TAP Stereo Echo,
Chorus/Flanger, AutoPanner, Tube Warmth and Scaling Limiter, Calf Phaser
LADSPA, Invada Compressor Stereo and 4-Band Parametric Filter (fil-plugins),
Stereo Balance and Panner (ste-plugins) by Fons Adriaensen.
This time there is a heap of automation and as usual quite a bit of parallel
processing, either as parallel sends or multiband processing.
Enjoy and best wishes,
Jeanette

There is a bugfix release up already V2.1.1.1
This is somewhat obscure in that it only affects a clean install and then only
if it was compiled for CLI only i.e. no GUI and no config file

Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
This is a relatively minor update.
Controllers and MIDI CCs windows now have separate buttons in the main window.
Instrument bank improvements give faster startup.
The switch for disabling 'Enable part on program change' has been removed.
The new HTML User Guide has been refined a bit more.
Further details in /doc/Yoshimi_2.1.1_features.txt
Yoshimi source code is available from either:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/yoshimi
Or:
https://github.com/Yoshimi/yoshimi
Full build instructions are in 'INSTALL'.
Our list archive is at:

Hey hey,
given, that I don't have a framebuffer setup, what is the easiest way to
render one termain "snapshot" to an image file that can be part of a slide
show or video?
I have seen fbdump and fbgrab, which rely on the framebuffer and have proven
them to fail. Everything else I found is for the desktop or to be launched in
a desktop environment.
Any help, pointers are appreciated!
Best wishes,
Jeanette

There's just a thing or two I'd like you to know <3
(Britney Spears)
Hey hey,
this is my latest track. Not beat based, but with a lot of lovely electronic
sounds and much Csound played straight from the keyboard, using physically
modelled instruments (or near instruments).
https://youtu.be/CudvZyI8FC0
(I could upload an OGG version in a few days)
There's some LinuxSampler for the real piano and strings, later on in the
piece.
Lyrics are below, best wishes
Jeanette
*** Lyrics of One girl, all alone ***
Where all is void,
Just me in emptiness.
I have to make the world
>From the ground up all alone.
Matter and a universe,
And laws to make them move.
Isolated islands
Are threatened by the dark of nothing.
I urgently must tell
Processes to be.
All the creatures lives
Must be allowed to dwell.
-
No rest, no balm
For the suff'ring
Of this mind.
-
Be my sun
And hold me in your gravity.
And I will
Hold you back
And then rest
my heart.
Breathe! Think! Go into overdrive!
Maintain continuity for live on this world.
And now to make an entity
For the "me" behind the thoughts.
Raise a broken body's shell
Inside an outside place
And pull a personality from
Sticky, broken pieces
Are all that's left behind.
-
No rest, no balm
For the suff'ring
Of this mind.
*** End of lyrics ***

Do you even know what I like
Just what I'm living for,
What I adore <3
(Britney Spears)
First off, this is not my link but from the Sound On Sound website.
However I think it's appropriate as all the tracks are offered free of charge,
but if you do buy, all the proceeds go to the Nordoff Robbins Music Therapy
Charity
As the only Linux representative, I have one track on there.
