Installing Reaper in Linux is quite easy once you know where's the information. Here is the download link: https://www.reaper.fm/download.php#linux_download You simply uncompress the file wherever you want it (you uncompress it with the command tar, if you're unfamiliar, the exact command is tar xf ...

There is an app called Etcher that will do this Thank you... Yes, I tried Etcher already, but I get: 10.jpg I've checked the .iso's checksum (sha256) and it is correct, the file is not corrupt. Besides, from what I understand from IO's instructions, its system to make it bootable is a bit peculiar,...

I'm trying to install IO GNU/Linux to a pendrive, following these instructions: https://sourceforge.net/p/io-gnu-linux/wiki/USB%20install%20howto/ I was hoping a paint-by-numbers operation, but it turns out I'm finding a lot of unexpected behavior. This is the first time I try to create a Live USB, ...

Something that works for me is starting by singing unisons with the fundamental of each chord, or sticking to what the bass is doing, something simple like that... With time, being the creative person you are, you start to get bored, or distracted, or maybe you need to hammer down a long word that r...

You can duplicate some track and add it an effect like distortion, flanger, some radical compression, or lower it one octave... and then you automate the volume of that track so that it doesn't sound in certain sections, but it "jumps" to you in others...

Thank you for this initiative. It was really refreshing this morning seeing a non-evil development going on in the world. I really needed some good news :D I'm curious about two two things: --What end user do you have in mind? Someone who wants to know "what's cooking" in open software, or fill a ce...

I can also report good results with the Behringer UMC22, the smallest of them all; worked out of the box with no issues in Ubuntu Studio. Plug it in, type 2 parameters in qjackctl, and you're good to go... Previously, I had less luck with Komplete Audio 6, but it's probably because the seller (Thoma...

Congratulations, what an excellent album! My favorites so far are: My Brother John: epic, in the literal sense. I love the initial riff, it's like a war call, or a traditional ballad... and the way the riff comes back after the bridge is wonderful, I love the whole structure and the energy of the so...

Sad to hear it. I got initiated in Linux with Puppy, and for a long time it was my main distro. May he rest in peace <3

A very consistent and compelling collection of songs. For some reason, in summer I tend to listen to this kind of blues rock? hard rock?, and have found myself coming back to this playlist several times... I like a lot the riff of "You", and the chorus really touches me in a profound way: "you haven...

Thank you for your kind offering, but I don't think examining those files would help me; I guess it's just a matter of me practicing changing parameters and trying things until I get an ear for it... At least I don't have to build my own instruments like the Kraftwerk guys did...

I'm curious about how you got to replicate Kraftwerk's sound so accurately; did you use soundfonts, or tweaked synth parameters until you found similar sounds? I'm starting to toy around with synths and it always take me a very long time to "sculpt" the sound into something usable. Any tips for a ne...

Excellent song + video! It's like "Musik Non Stop Part 2"... Very well caught the vibe...

Yeah, my finger drumming isn't great either, but I really prefer to play something rather than using the midi grid. With Reaper it is crazy easy to slow down the song if you need to, and also I usually record in several passes: the first one just with keys z and x for kick and snare (maybe doing the...

I use Reaper too, and lately I've been trying the opposite approach: as I have less and less patience to program drums (all that click click is perhaps alright for someone who does techno, but for a rock track it feels all wrong to me), now I record the drums live, doing "finger drumming", which ens...
