Re: [LAU] Two songs made in Qtractor : Takkadum & Kleb Station

Hi there Takkadum <http://opensimo.org/play/?a=Azer0,Counternatures&s=1> was made mid 2011 right before Automation was available, around 0.4.something, I guess 18 tracks : 10 MIDI tracks and 8 audio ones (using flac containers) ; - One 3 channels bus to sidechain-compress the 303-style bass (nekobee<http://www.rncbc.org/drupal/node/196.206.69.128>) with the kick (a free 808 Sound font played by fluidsynth) using SC3<http://plugin.org.uk/ladspa-swh/docs/ladspa-swh.html#tth_sEc2.90> - the other cheap DR55 Beat elements are made with Rudolf 556<http://ll-plugins.nongnu.org/lv2/rudolf556.html> - A Hexter <http://dssi.sourceforge.net/hexter.html> synth is doubling the bass in the subs - The organ is a Calf <http://calf.sourceforge.net/> organ - The Lead synth is a Calf <http://calf.sourceforge.net/> Monosynth - The guitar is a g10 double coil Ibanez in a focusrite preamp - The microphone is a chinese Neumann knockoff in a focusrite preamp - The girl asking "what" ? in the background is called Fatima-Zohra - Everybody is EQ'd with LADSPA C* 10 bands Equalizer from CAPS - Everybody is comp'd with Calf compressor DSSI - There is a LADSPA "Fast lookahead limiter" on the master out bus - The final bounce, a "normalize" and a quick and dirty fade out are made in Audacity Kleb Station <http://opensimo.org/play/?a=Azer0,Counternatures&s=7>(summer 2011 too) uses pretty much the same setup <http://www.rncbc.org/drupal/node/307> with more instruments<http://linuxfr.org/users/philippemc/journaux/kleb-station-un… in, a little automation (it was just out, and already worked really good) and sidechain-ducked bass ; I play on all the tracks. BTW the CMS <http://opensimo.org/play/> linked is a personal developpement, that automatically builds album pages by reading the tags (and optional - cover & stuff - images). It's yours if you want it. I used GNU / Linux to make music since around the time Jack was introduced. I spent coutless nights teaching myself how to use just about every single system available, and I always came back to Qtractor. Everything makes sense in Qtractor. And when it seems that it doesn't, a quick message on Rui Nuno's blog and you're out of the hole. The development is steady, focusing only on the core of the matter, and the result is a solid system, usable right now. Qtractor does not even try to be *everything*, it wants to be useful in the middle of the huge Linux audio production ecosystem, talking nice to everybody, implementing new techs & protocols silently, never breaking what's worked so far, bringing it all together. For me, it's the standard against witch I can compare everything else.
