I have a lot of hardware, including several Tentacle Sync units that send
LTC audio to cameras. I need to connect this audio to Linux for some MTC
coding in C/C++ of midi events for "live in the studio" performances.
I am a little rusty in my Linux Audio skills. I seem to have this interface
ready to go with Jack but I get no sound of the LTC from my internal
speakers with or without Jack. I am running OpenSuse leap 15.
I have two shells open, one with a Jack Session and one with jltcdump. The
jack command does change the display on the interface. I couldn't get
qjackctl to recognize the usb interface, only the default intel sound
devices. Audacity doesn't see the device. Any ideas?

A couple of weeks ago, getting progressively more annoyed with soundcoud, I
opened a Bandcamp account. I like the idea of free streaming but accepting
contributions for downloads, and Bandcamp's cut doesn't seem excessive.
My first posting there is a themed album with a mixture of revised compositions
and completely new ones. It is also 100% Yoshimi & Rosegarden.
You can find it here:

Enjoy :)

I am currently considering setting "(Don't Fear) the Reaper" from Blue
Öyster Cult for accordion orchestra, and particularly because of the
complexity of the rather layered arrangement, that implies a lot of
transcription effort. I took a look at guitar tab sites and got quite a
few bits out for the guitar parts, but there is a lot of stuff missing
of course and need for writing stuff down.
So I dug around on the web to look for MIDI files and found a few ones
that were pretty solid (actually, astonishing in itself).
A few MIDI files clock in around 70kB and are likely obvious variations
of the same source. But I also found something in the 20kB range.
Now here is the thing: all of them, as accurate and detailed as they
appear otherwise, get the central guitar riff wrong. The second bar of
the central riff is a (broken) straight G major chord, g b d g. The
guitar tabs have it. The original single version has it (haven't found
other versions). Tutorials have it. But the Midi files invariably have
g c d g. All of them, the simple and more complex ones.
So I have two working theories: there is some other version of "(Don't
Fear) the Reaper". The other is that all MIDI files have a common
ancestor that got it wrong and never looked twice, in spite of very
meticulously transcribing all the solos.

It's again something different, a rather acoustic song. I know, it's more of a
preproduction sound. But I can't play a guitar to save my life. I did the best
I could with three guitars, some layering for the "minor" guitars, careful
playing and hopefully "plausible" writing. This is a song of unrequited love.
Most of it is LinuxSampler, trying out the ShinyGuitar, a free SFZ linked to
from the plogue website. They have a nice collection of instruments there,
both free and commercial. I had to edit the SFZ files a little to remove some
of the more fancy MIDI controls, which are usually served by some kind of GUI.
Hope you like it!
Best wishes,
Jeanette

Dear LAUs,
tonight (March 26th 2021, 7pm CET) we will play a concert with five
musicians at four different locations, using our ovbox system.
Announcement and stream will be here: https://orlandoviols.com/
The complete production chain is FLOSS and running on Linux:
- remote music collaboration tool ovbox
(https://github.com/gisogrimm/ovbox/)
- TASCAR virtual acoustic simulator
(http://tascar.org/)
- blender game engine (with a patch for improvement of video textures)
(https://www.blender.org/)
- ardour for recording
(http://ardour.org/)
- OBS for streaming
(https://obsproject.com/)
- jack, to connect everything
(https://jackaudio.org/)
Thanks to all developers and the community!
The concert will be streamed via youtube.
Best,
Giso
Spatially separated, but still united in a virtual concert hall through
our newly developed device: the ovbox, we play consort music from the
English court of the 17th century.
Hello all,
I just participated in this two hour album challenge here
<https://2hac.abstractionmusic.com/> and live-streamed a workflow I've
been playing with and wanted to share it. I used emacs with Common Music
2 (cm-incudine) to write the composition, and renoise and some plugins
to make and mix some of the audio. If you are interested in seeing how
this worked out, you can watch the live stream of it here
<https://youtu.be/INg7lqMifXY>. It was a lot of fun!
I still have to figure out how to sequence (events) with common music,
but I tried something with (progn) near the end to sequence them. I
still am going to just record the audio from the individual events into
a daw (maybe ardour) and sequence them like tape, but I wish I knew how
to sequence them in Common Lisp. Does anyone on here know?
Let me know what you think if you watch it!,

Can anyone suggest a really simple MIDI sequencer, with no extra bells and
whistles, but just Alsa MIDI in, Alsa MIDI out, with piano roll type editing and
at least 16 tracks. Ideally, storage would also be standard MIDI files.
