identify this guitarware?

What guitar software is this man using?

Someone told me it was Guitar-Rig but now that I have spent the day pissing around with GR to no avail I'm beginning to wonder. The interface doesn't resemble GR at all. Is it something on a Mac maybe?

transposition

I'm no producer, more like a student, and am trying to transpose a 4-note midi section from Bb to Ab. Working with Rosegarden I first of all tried to let Rosegarden do the honours. The result ended up sounding bad, advice obtained elsewhere suggested that I do it manually. I tried that too but the r...

Re: DoReMiFa Solfege

I just meant that DoReMi is ringing in my ear since childhood, abc never did. But this is a prehistoric thread, I've learned a lot about chords and scales since.

Midi/Rosegarden structure modification

I'd like to import the tracks of one midi into another. Problem is one of the tow has a tempo of 140 and twice as many bars as the other with a tempo of 70. How can I modify either to be mergeable into the other measure for measure?

Re: Qsynth w. Rosegarden: instrument selection

Thanks for the guidance, I didn't get far trying to follow the steps, selecting the fluidsynth-dssi the associated 'edit' button still does nothing at all. But I did as a result discover what I was missing in the first place, that the qSynth 'Channels' tab is where instrument selection begins and th...

[Resolved:YES] Re: AvLinux as an otherwise cool Debian desktop system?

A password has no business in an install or live session, but you're right this IS not the place for non-music music. I posted here less for technical assistance and more hoping that there would be many users and that I would get a quick answer "YES, AvL is a Debian like most others with some o...

I managed to install it after a ...

sounds almost like a bagpipe

so far i'm really a big zero when it comes to effects this guy plays "Power of Love" and it sounds not bad at all even though the song has just about every tread worn off it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nrH90sF6Sxo I might wanna learn it IF i can hit that tone. I have a me-80, and rakk...

Re: Qsynth w. Rosegarden: instrument selection

I finally got around to trying this again, alas.. Could you expand on it please? you will be able to change the instrument from rosegarden dialogs (by changing the program in instrument parameters, you will see). Of course, you will have to load a soundfont into it (Editor button, Load soundfont...)...

[Solved] Re: Hydrogen as synth playing drum track in Rosegarden?

Thank you Pablo I was obviously doing several things wrong but finally got my act together What I'm after is the use of Hydrogen as a drum synth to play already written kit tracks in the rosegarden edit which I ultimately replay and record to make a backing track. The short of the long is that I now...

Hydrogen as synth playing drum track in Rosegarden?

I need to use a good kick drum sound in a piece but I don't know how to set up hydrogen to work with rosegarden and qJackCtl and other synths ..or if that's possible at all. The track is in rosegarden but the synths I use don't have the right sound (ZASF/ZynAddSubFX & Gen. Midi) I get as far as ...

Gt.CutNoise

I have a midi file in which a track is shown as "Gt.CutNoise" but I have to set up Rosegarden so it will play it. Thing is I have NO IDEA what Gt.CutNoise would be or what it sounds like. Nor can I find it in any synth list like the ZASF plugin, ZynaddSubFX or the stock midi setup. In case...
