Thanks for the hint with the plugin, however, yesterday I recorded my own guitar strums for all 12 major, minor and 7-chords. I wanted first position chords where possible (guitar player terminology) and didn't need more than one sample per chord because I only need the guitar strums for basic rhyth...

Thanks guys, I downloaded some bass sample, edited it a bit around and now have a quite convincing acoustic bass for my needs. Now I'm looking into guitar samples (steel string acoustic) but all samples I have found so far seem to be single note samples and not chord strums. They seem appropriate fo...

I am trying to set up a hydrogen drum kit to provide simple backup for instrument practice. The first thing I need are acoustic bass samples (upright / double bass, if possible). Later on I would like to add acoustic guitar strums and perhaps mandolin chops (yes, bluegrass... :wink: ). Does anyone k...

I tried Mixxx and its filter functionality is good. But it seems to be a bit of an overkill to use as a media player. :D I haven't figured out yet how I can repeat and shuffle the list of tracks I get from the filter. When I add the tracks to the auto-DJ, they get played one after the other and then...

I am looking for a media player program (preferably a package for ubuntu) that lets me create playlists using tags to filter my music library. All players I have tried allow filtering for some predefined popular tags such as album, artist, genre, year, however, I have tagged some of my music files w...

A first step to success! Following this guide here I have been able to record the sound played by the computer and thus whatever my practice tool outputs. I assume that starting a second instance of audacity for recording myself playing via the Zoom should result in two recordings which I then can e...

Hey, thanks for your reply! That would indeed work for the case where I just play to a backing track but it has the disadvantage that I can't loop over my backing track (or usually just a section of it) for as long as I want to practice that particular section or song. I would have to repeat the bac...

Hello everyone, total Linux-musician newbie here. I have been using Linux exclusively at home since some time in the late 90s but never really used it for music. When I started with Linux I did a lot of things by hand like compiling kernels with some options and modules I personally needed but over ...

Hello everybody! I'm a new user from Germany. I'm more of a non-computer musician, I play the banjo (3-finger style) and used to play guitar (acoustic and electric) in my youth. In addition I have been a linux user since something like 1996/97 (I think my first kernel was 2.0.21) but for some reason...
