i just did a full update on my kxstudio (12.04) and since then none of my hardware midi devices show up in carla so my studio is basically dead. i dont know if thats carla related or came with the system update. im thinking about doing a complete new install of xubuntu 16.04 as i use xfce and then i...

something like this would be ideal for my pure data based performance sampler. ive been looking for a similar platform but cant find anything ... i need at least 6 channels and want to avoid an external soundcard. any hints?

i have the latest kxstudio version running and all updates and there is no way i can run vcvrack, its always missing libraries. is there a foolproof howto somewhere what to install to get this running?

hi all ... im running a kxstudio trusty lowlatency setup + XFce 4.10 and i would like to update ubuntu from 14 to 16 or even 17 if thats recommendable, mainly because i want to upgrade to XFce 4.12. - is that problematic, will the core of kxstudio still work? - is there a lowlatency kernel in 16? - ...

my setup is kxstudio with the linux lowlatency kernel 3.13.0-125. yesterday ive replaced kde with XFce 4.10 which is as simple as as installing "xfce4" via the package manager. it made everything simpler and better looking and i can totally recommend that especially if you can spend some t...

this is great, phantom of the vsts! i was just wondering about a bridge like that that i could use in bitwig. but what i would really like to work with is a bridge that does VST_> LV2 ... i route all my music setups directly in carla.

hi ... ive been running my electronic music studio for a whilke now under kxstudio and love it all the way. i mostly use hardware and sequence via midi and control voltage from pure data. i set up all my LV2 plugins in catia and record in audacity. the open sound architecture is brilliant, you can l...

hi falktx ... midi bridge needs to be off for any midi to work in bitwig so jackass is no option. there is no no virtual alsa midi device around? right now i can send midi data to bitwig by pluging the output of my midi-sport 1 into midisport-2 ... but thats kind of dumb.

hi all ... im doing my fist steps in producing with bitwig studio and want to trigger bitwig instruments via software midi sequencers i wrote in pure data. bitwig studio is amazing btw, once this takes off it will put linux seriously on the map as a professional audio production platform. bitwig doe...

Grab a 4-5 years old Workstation loaded with a nice bunch Xeons and plenty of RAM for around 500 bucks (HP is a very good option), add a (currently cheap) 9652 and you'll have a killer machine to run with KXS or AV Linux for years. thanks for all the good advice! i built a really cheap new machine ...

after 6 months of tweaking my laptop into submission all my usb ports have died. so now im building a new desktop, which motherboard should i get? all i need is: - intel i5 processor - lots of ram - graphics with large resolution - one firewire 400 port for my rme fireface 800 - if possible no fans ...

damn, i think i found the bad apple in my setup! i do all my sequencing with custom patches that ive written in pure data. i was running pure data with the "callback" option in the audio setup for jack, my ff800 wouldnt work without it a year ago. i switched callbacks off to test something...

this looks really promising, it has a pci slot so you can add a ti cipset firewire 400. no fan! i dont know what to with 6 serial ports but actually its really good for controlling all sorts of stuff i think. even midi via rs232 is rock solid. opinions? http://www.cappuccinopc.com/twister-77-6c.asp ...

thanks, thats exactly what im thinking! but i need my whole setup to be movable. i use almost exclusively analog gear for my music and the laptop is the controlling center of it all. so i dont need a lot of processing power just reliable performance, a lot of mixing options and a high end sound. the...

ok, these are really good but 1500$ to 3000$ is crazy. there are 10thsds of dj travelling around the world with laptops but there is NO professional audio pc laptop with firewire out there, its all macs. something is wrong here ...
