Re: mx44 : Who is interested ?

Is this a Debian based system? Is the jack2-devel (or similar) installed?

Re: session management and *disconnecting* jack items?

Outside control by script is surely a good solution. And it is available right now. Staring the session per script can be done with nsmd --load-session <name> where name is the short name of the session (not a file path), essentially the directory name. Btw. combined with --session-root <path> this ...

Re: session management and *disconnecting* jack items?

Not in any of the standard NSM tools. A script would be the right solution here. Disconnecting is easy: put a shell script into your session dir, make it executable, use "jack_disconnect" (from JACK) in there. Use the script with nsm-proxy. Auto-Disconnect needs some kind of external watch...

Re: # or b chord/note labeling RULES?

It looks fairly circular to me. The dominant chord to F# is C#, and not Db. If you really want a circular layout, look for an image where it is a spiral, and not a closed circle. This is my "pillar", just rolled up. And additionally you can see all enharmonic variants next to each other, ...

Re: # or b chord/note labeling RULES?

The following is only a heuristic rule, but better than 80/20: There is something called the "Pillars of Fifths", most often wrongly described as "circle of fifths". Each step a fifths up or down is considered more far away from your root note or tonic. Choose always the enharmon...

Re: Non-Session-Manager fork descalation

The first and major problem is the ongoing involvement of linuxaudio.org. Finally they won't release as linuxaudio.org anymore, but tt's still maintained by linuxaudio.org thoug,h as is apparent because of the fact it is still hosted and maintained on the linuxaudio.org github page. Issues are repo...

Re: Non-Session-Manager fork descalation

Let me first say that I appreciate someone is stepping up. I've said enough about this issue and it takes me too much time and energy to really accomplish something, it's up to others now, but let me try to give a 'short' reaction. The first and major problem is the ongoing involvement of linuxaudi...

Sometimes rumors are more interesting than reality.
I heard a rumor that you, jeffg, and raboof are in reality the same person with two different accounts.

Re: Non-Session-Manager fork descalation

I only vaguely have followed this saga, but to me it seems the original developer has some butthurt about the project being forked at all and finds minor points to pick at the fork project. And the new developer has initially taken some unsympathetic steps to achieve goals and express frustration. ...

Re: What are the pros and cons between VST3 (linux native) and LV2?

It is unfair to compare low-level LV2 programming with the typical VST process. Many developers use JUCE or something similar. Of course they find it too complex when asked to write an LV2 plugin from scratch, without any prior knowledge. At this point they most likely don't know that DPF exist, and...
