Re: [LAU] Music made with Linux: "move along"

Hi all, I've just finished work on a new track -- it's available for download or streaming from my blog and from Bandcamp: http://wootangent.net/2011/04/new-track-move-along/ http://pneuman.bandcamp.com/track/move-along If you've heard any of my previous electronic works, this will seem quite different -- it's just piano, bass, drums, and vocals. The instruments are all soft-synths: * Pianoteq for the piano sound (the K1 Grand) * Linuxsampler CVS for drums, using an SFZ mapping of the RockStock kit from Analogue Drums * Fluidsynth-DSSI for the bass, using an SF2 file I dug up online The parts were all sequenced in Qtractor, and then the audio was recorded in to Ardour 3, along with the vocals, for mixing. I didn't go crazy with plugins while mixing-- just compressors and filters/EQ (all Calf), IR with a Bricasti M7 impulse response for reverb, and Rakarrack with an Ampeg SVT-810 bass cabinet impulse response on the bass. It's meant to sound like a simple, natural performance on real instruments, and for the most part I think it achieves that well enough. I also used the zita-at1 autotuner to do some subtle pitch correction on the vocals. There were only a couple of notes that really needed correction, so I turned off automatic correction (by disabling all of the notes on the scale in the GUI) and then controlled it from a MIDI track in Ardour, drawing in MIDI notes to trigger the correction just where it was needed.
