FWIW, I can heartily second the recommendation to consider System76: I've owned two of their laptops, one of which I used heavily as my primary develop-code-for-a-living machine for eight years before upgrading to another (largely for the extra max RAM to do video editing). On the older machine, I'v...

From the perspective of somebody who has been using, making, distributing, and supporting FLOSS software for the past 25 years (but almost none of it AV-specific), the barrier for the developer to using a separate distro for building / testing is pretty high: high enough that the projects which do b...

miniAudicle seems to be actively developed, or at least has fairly recent commits in its Github repo: https://github.com/ccrma/miniAudicle/commits/main There looks to be a pull request which would update the code to use QT5: https://github.com/ccrma/miniAudicle/pull/44 Perhaps you could clone it, ap...

mrlinux For a little project I would need a soundfont for a mandolin but I still had no success to find any. Can anybody point me to one? The Spitfire Labs Mandolin instrument is pretty nice: https://labs.spitfireaudio.com/mandolin Using it does require working out how to get the various Labs plugi...

I don't want to add any pressure just point out that I can't sit still for days since the end is near.

Congratulations to you and the other devs who have wrestled with getting RT support into mainline!

leumas I struggle to install Native Access. Tried downgrade wine (and wine-staging) but neither of these work and when I want to launch it, there is this message. Anyone can help? I'm just guessing here, based on the traceback in the image you posted. The error message seems to indicate that the pa...

geoffrey Two ways to do this I think: - On the kernel command line, add a parameter "snd_usb_audio.device_setup=1,1,1,1" (I'm guessing this based on the kernel documentation) or - Boot with no USB audio devices attached, do "lsmod | grep snd_usb_audio" to make sure it's not load...

@tseaver would you mind running "alsactl -f /tmp/scarlett-gen1-18i20.state store USB" and sending me that file? I'll see if it's possible to make my GUI work with 1st gen devices too. geoffrey here is the output from that command (too long to paste here): https://palladion.com/static/scar...

GuntherT wrote: I don't own one of these devices, but I still wanted to compliment you on the work you've done. The GUI looks fantastic and appears very easy to use and understand. You have done a great service to owners of this line of audio interfaces, and I hope they reward you for your efforts....

I'm a C programmer, so I have no class.

Minds me of the gig where the bass player's car broke down on the way to the venue: "Hi! We're the Bassless Accusations!"

Carotino The first bar is 78 2/4, from the second bar it's 78 4/4 That sounds like the first bar is really a "pickup", and would more typically be scored as 78 BPM 4/4 with the two pickup beats in an incomplete first measure. In pretty much any DAW, rather than introducing the (artificial...

Shortstop : Only thing I can think of is that it might be harder since most of these MIDI devices are geared towards Windoze DAWs, etc, but I think I probably will still be able to assign whatever I want. The convention to have drums on MIDI channel 10 is so old that it is often hard-wired: you sho...

GMaq I'm talking mostly Audio track recording up front but your whole list can be added in any DAW on any Platform (I obviously would prefer Linux) in post-production. I didn't say I don't need a DAW or wouldn't use a DAW, of course I would for the mixing mastering stage and to add Virtual instrume...

GMaq I no longer need to be concerned about whether the computer supports the interface or not... ISTM that means you have chosen never to record "through" software at all then? I.e., No effects racks, no virtual synths? No verb to soothe a temperamental diva's ego? No lush sampled string...

rytmisk The amazing Impro-visor that was made by professor Bob Keller who tragically passed away 2019 is abandoned at the moment. Thanks for that information, and RIP Bob Keller: his work is indeed worthy of ongoing support. Perhaps you might be able to trace one or more of the graduate students wh...
