Hey hey,
I'm looking for the name to an instrument. I had a feeling I was looking for a
whirly tube (or corrugaphone), but apparently not. I'm looking for the sound
in this song:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m-jYpFa3Ppk
audible between 22-27 seconds. It sounds like a whispering diggeridoo or jaw
harp. I thought a corrugated tube could produce this sound when whilred, but
all demos I heard of this were much higher and much more pronounced in clear
pitch.
I'd be very grateful if someone could give me a clue or pointer of how to
continue the search at least.
Best whishes,
Jeanette

Hey hey,
my latest track "real love" is inspired by Simon Collins' solo debut (All of
who you are" and is probably an indie/electro pop ballad:

Direct OGG download:

It was said that this might be my best production yet, even with me spoiling
the song by singing. :)
On the Linux side I used LinuxSampler with several free and commercial
libraries and the usual production and recording software. Special credit
should go to the TAP chorus, which is beautiful!
Lyrics follow below.
Best wishes,
Jeanette
*** Lyrics for "Real love" ***
[Verse]
Many a time - far at sea - you are my lifeline
With just the smile in your voice.
When events bare me down until I'm supine,
I feel your call and I have no choice
But to shoulder the weight of the world like a cloud...
Thus in fade I rejoice
With my feet on the ground and my heart reaching out...
-
Patiently listening to the lonely,
Solitude melts in your spell.
With wide open arms you never knowingly
Coax me like pearl from a shell.
The turmoil you cause, you will sooth with a laugh
Towards the storm...
Then you summon the light and the blue black above
is torn...
[PreChorus]
Hell is on fire
Heaven's burning bright.
'Cause now I aspire
To ask if you requite
[Chorus]
My love (all my love)
To live outside a dream on safer ground
In your love (all your love)
To face our days
And make our ways
Hand in open hand...
[Verse]
Compassion alone shall bestow your noble birthright,
And thus give credence to you.
My princess, hold court with the timid and the forthright!
Joy will provide all that is due.
And together we serve with the creatures of earth
Where we stay.
And in kisses we share what a passion is worth
Day to day.
[Prechorus]
[Chorus]
[Instrumental]
[Chorus]

Hello dear readers,
I wish to find the best way to play live on a MIDI keyboard with
softsynths and plugins in my linux notebook (avlinux or debian – or
another if someone knows a better one for this purpose) with a good USB
audio interface (komplete audio 6, which is running very well with jack1
(possibly changing to jack2))
Mostly I have to be able to switch between preconfigured sets of sounds
quickest and easy.
The topic is boundless. Therefore I ask you for some orientation.
Grüße, Gerhard

You can try Konfyt, an app specifically for live keyboard playing.

Over in KVR I used to be a regular contributor to the Music Cafe Contest, but
that has really thinned out as other things got in the way.
However after more than a year, I've finally managed to come up with something
new again, and thought folks here might be interested in how I went about it.
The track is named Pensive and is downloadable from Kara Moon here:
http://www.kara-moon.com/forum/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=8697.0;attac…
Anyway, here goes.
It's all Yoshimi, of course.
I started out with an improvisation across two keyboards feeding into
Rosegarden on tracks 1 and 2. From there, as well as recording MIDI, it passed
on to Yoshimi. In the past, I would have run with a single keyboard with
Yoshimi set up as a split keyboard, but that's much less comfortable and not
improv friendly.
With the melody and backing laid down, I then spent some time with minor edits,
and a range of voicing selections, ending up with 'Solo' for the melody, and
'Multi-Rushes' for the backing.
Multi-Rushes has a lot of 'movement' built in, but I went further with it, and
MIDI learned both filter Q and filter CutOff to the MOD wheel, setting a block
on it acting as normal. I then set the control range to run between 50% and 75%
for a more subtle effect, and recorded this as MOD wheel to Rosegarden,
operating the control to get the swells as and when I wanted them.
For the bass, I then directed one of the keyboards to channel 3 and played
along to the rest. I actually set this an octave high for the recording - it's
much easer to be sure you're hitting the right notes! The patch is 'Simple Bass'
After that, it was just a matter of dropping the bass an octave, and a few
cleanups before making an audio recording.
I hope you like the result.

Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
Hi there,
I was somehow very fond of that album in particular but it seems it has
entirely vanished of the web by now. I could find the wiki page and
rpm08 page on archive.org but no music.
I was just wondering whether anyone cares to restore it in some fashion.
I have the rpm08, 09 and 12 final mix but no project files or anything
like that.
Regards,
Philipp
Hi everyone,
Anyone now of a site source where I can provide the detailed
specifications I am seeking, and then get a list of options?
i have a treasured pair of JVC headphones with a short near the plug.
While i am getting them repaired, hopefully soon, it might not be a bad
idea to find alternatives...not happy that I did not buy a couple of pairs
when I last found them a few years ago.
Hoping for a resource, because specs are more challenging given so many
wear headphones as a fashion statement these days.
Thoughts?

This script, by recording LTC into CH1 of three cameras:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1p1alqngpo4sK7-ANl6Ldoy_fxfa7bzzw/view?usp=…
created this video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-RpHFATJ2R8
It's an analog workflow - see the video description. My day job is
programming and while some people like me may get computers just for fun -
I need a true escape. I feel analog sequencers are more like an instrument
and somehow makes more sense to me by using control voltage via the
Analogue Solutions Oberkorn and Korg SQ1. I also use analog outboard i.e.
mixers, compressors, filters and eq.
To be clear, this is a personal workflow preference and I am not knocking
anyones elses workflow, soft synths, VST's or plugins - many of which are
excellent. I'm a bit of a snowflake so I hope people take it that way.
I wrote a script because it's less than 1000 lines and I never was able to
gel with open source editing software on Linux that supports timecode - I
only use Linux and open source software. I soon realized that with LTC the
whole thing can be somewhat easily done programmatically.
