Last Thursday 02 June 2005 00:33, Darren Inwood was like:
The main problem I am having is that there is just so
much info to trawl
through and so many apps! Can anyone recommend something stable that
could function as a jack-connected sampler player,
Specimen.
Also worth looking at ZynAddSubFX for synthesis and QSynth / Fluidsynth for
playing soundfonts.
and something else
stable that could function as a regular MIDI sequencer and/or MIDI
loop/drum sequencer for my external synths?
Rosegarden4, MuSE
However, I'd recommend Hydrogen for generating drum loops.
Start with these half a dozen applications, you will get a good idea of where
to go next. Rosegarden has a significant but worthwhile learning curve, as
does Ardour, which you will want to investigate once you are ready to start
recording / putting it all together.
