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.

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,
I've gotten it into my head to try to try to decode some files from 30
years ago and see if I can extract enough MIDI -- and perhaps,
instrument modifications -- to be able to approximately recreate the
audio on Linux.
The files were created from a program I wrote and have long since
forgotten. Using the old Korg M1 manual, helpfully scanned in by Korg,
I've been able to determine that most of the files start with the
"exclusive header" and can be categorized as to which type of dump
they are. From there, I should be able to break apart the data.
However, I have a several files with the extension ".sng", which would
suggest "song", but the opening bytes are not the "exclusive header"
but rather, in hex are:
"00 10 00 3C" followed by a list of 16-byte ASCII strings containing
instrument names (followed, for a while by mostly 00000000 and/or
FFFFFFFF before getting to something a bit more variable)
Skimming through I also eventually see what appears to be a "song
title" in ASCII.
Is anyone familiar with what type of beasties these files are, and is
there a good spec for the format?
Thanks.
P.S. (I only had access to the M1's for one semester, and the code was
written on the school's Atari ST-1040, which I'd never seen before nor
have I used one since.)
Hey hey,
something a little Vangelis SciFi soundtrack for a change:

On Linux I used Yoshimi for the big pad bass and Hexter for the high bell. As
this is a "sound per synth" setup, which could have been recorded live, once
the sequences were going, I used all my very synthetic hardware: Behringer
Neutron for bass, RD-8 for drums, Arturia MiniBrute 2 and Make Noise 0-Coast
for arpeggios, Waldoorf Microwave XT for the pad and DSI/Sequential Prophet-12
for the lead.
In the production there was just some EQ and compression to tame the sounds
and a healthy dose of reverb for the atmosphere. I think I ended up using
g2verb, since Ecasound and zita-reverb don't always get along.
Best wishes and enjoy,
Jeanette

Hi, I'm the author of jack_capture.
Were you able to record more than 20 minutes of 22ch before with
jack_catpure before, and now it suddenly fails?
Have you upgraded or downgraded jack_capture and/or libsndfile since then?
Which version of jack_capture are you currently using?
Have you tried a different format than wavex?
(wav is probably the the safest format to try since it's one that has
been the most tested. Wav files has a 2gb limitation though, but
jack_capture automatically writes to a new file whenever it reaches
that limit.)
There was a problem many years ago that I used (by accident) a 32 bit
integer instead of 64 bit integer. Perhaps you are using one of those
quite old versions of jack_capture.
