LinuxMusicians

Perhaps it'd be nice to have a 'Planes LinuxMusicians' tracking news from various linux music sources/blogs. I mocked up a quick demo at http://arnout.engelen.eu/planet/ - I could hook that up to the 'planet.linuxmusicians.com' hostname if you'd like. Of course, more feeds need to be added and a bit...

I think we can have this as a thread where everyone contributes and it'll be updated. The idea is to gather solutions to problems that are simple (not too long) yet informative, plus add any hint or tip alongside as well. Good idea! Nathan mentioned setting up a wiki for linuxmusicians, this should...

I didn't realize that there are 'active' studio monitors available, thanks for the pointer! Looks like there are some really good options there.

As I'm currently mostly using my setup for arrangements, quality audio output hasn't been much of a priority, and I got by with a set of *really* low-grade computer speakers with a built-in amp.

See you later...

Short intro: I'm a Dutch sax player - playing in a woodwind orchestra and 2 coverbands for which I also do some of the horns arrangements.

During the day I work as a software analyst/engineer at a mostly-Java shop, but I also like to hack on software in other languages, notably Rosegarden.

I rather like Rosegarden - in fact, liked it so much I dove in and added a couple of features I missed. However, one thing I dislike about RG as wel as all the other GUI's I tried is that (especially for 'popular' music arrangements) you end up copy-pasting an awful lot. Recently I've been laying ou...

seems ok to me now

a new irc wil thing make more 'spread up'... As for IRC I tend to agree: let's point people to ##linuxaudio@freenode and meet each other there. Also a chat will not be needed since there's a IRC already.. and also again, it's better to connect with the whole linux audio music making community cause...
