Thanks! Very cool and something that I will definitely take a look at. That said, I think this is well beyond the level that I'm working at right now. What I'm really looking for is information on how to take advantage of an existing synth to get different sorts of sounds. Right now in a synth like ...

Hello, wondering if anyone has any suggestions on how to go about learning to program synth plug-ins. I've looked at posts like this on kvraudio, and the standard suggestions seem to be the e-book How to Make a Noise and the Synth Secrets articles from Sound on Sound. I've checked out both of these:...

And... I'm kind of an idiot. Just needed to start JACK before launching. Thank you very much!

Hi, I just installed Yoshimi from the package manager in KXStudio 14.04, and I can't get it to launch at all. I get a loading icon in the taskbar for about 30 seconds and then it disappears again. Any ideas? Thanks!

MacBook Pro(7,1). The video card is an NVIDIA GeForce 320M. Interestingly, the 14.04 iso worked fine and I'm up and running now.

Great, that worked like a charm. Thank you very much!

Hi, new KXStudio user here. I'm trying to set up a Claudia session with Ardour and Hydrogen, but Hydrogen refuses to connect audio to JACK right now. If I try to open up Hydrogen from Claudia, it comes up but only gives me RX and TX ports (not sure what these are, midi?). If I go into Hydrogen while...

Hi, I'm trying out KXStudio for the first time on a MacBook Pro and I'm having a problem with the Live DVD. I tried the KXStudio 14.04 Live-DVD - 64bit image and it got as far as giving me a choice between trying KXStudio and installing. If I choose Try KXStudio it then hangs for a long time, switch...

Hi there, I do a bit of singing, songwriting, playing different instruments mainly guitar and fiddle. Right now experimenting with recording and arranging and software instruments, and trying to understand some different tools. I'm running on a MacBook Pro with a Fast Track Ultra. The last Mac OS up...
