Re: Canceled Audio-Distro Side-by-Side Comparison

I'm not familiar with that tool, but I'm highly skeptical because that's not something that a computer can even measure properly (CPU timers are a strange creature when trying to measure small time periods accurately), you actually do need an external instrument to properly measure true latency. Mic...

Re: Canceled Audio-Distro Side-by-Side Comparison

doesn't make sense loading an os to ram would lead to less xruns it depends on system services loaded in the background I can run EASILY hydrogen and jack with 16 frames/period and 2 periods/buffer on my Arch install qith 0 x-runs, and nothing is loaded to ram. I'm sure I could lower but I haven't ...

Re: LMS Suite 12.07. Euphoria, the new king of Linux sample

Since this is an open source project, perhaps there is a graphic designer that would do it for free? I've got very little experience with graphic designers working for free, but perhaps you can ask on a graphic designer forum. I don't know, I was under the impression there's not that many quality g...

Re: LMS Suite 12.07. Euphoria, the new king of Linux sample

I think you can just use setMinimumWidth(). Normally that's how I do it, but this particular instance is a function in a wrapper-class that creates 32 (the max sample count I defined) instances of said combobox, and is used all throughout my plugins, I'm not quite ready to commit to modifying the e...

Re: looking for a wav sampler

Can anyone quickly outline the differences between petri-foo and euphoria? I've taken a look at both of them but I'm not familiar enough with sampling to really understand what's going on. I haven't used with petri-foo enough to be able to say everything it can or can't do, but I wrote Euphoria. He...

Re: LMS Suite 12.07. Euphoria, the new king of Linux sample

rename them to "drum mode" and "instrument mode". Source waveforms are: <radio widget here> Percussive (unpitched, drum) <radio widget here> Melodic (pitched) A fine suggestion, but actually, it's a combobox inside a table(due to UI space constraints), and due to odd way that Qt...

2. Writing a full-blown synthesizer plugin that does wavetables, FM, routable/modular effects... (which Ray-V was never meant to be) Looking forward to this! ;) brian Cheers :) I'll probably finish it in my usual "faster than ever thought humanly possible" development style, 99% of the co...

Re: LMS Suite 12.07. Euphoria, the new king of Linux sample

Looks like I'll have to report this to the MusE devs. This could be fallout from the new VST code as Euphoria doesn't have the same problem under qtractor it seems from my quick test. Good luck with that, I've already tried and lost that battle for them to consider devoting any effort to officially...

Re: LMS Suite 12.07. Euphoria, the new king of Linux sample

I wish PyDAW and its various components the very best of luck but right now I'm more excited about MusE's incoming native VST support - ie no wine required. Yes, I'm all to aware that you can count the number of truly great NATIVE Linux VSTs on your hand(s) but its only very recently that qtractor ...

Re: LMS Suite 12.07. Euphoria, the new king of Linux sample

It would appear that I had installed the archive I linked in the previous post on this machine and the version of Euphoria within has said defect. From what Jeff is saying I get the impression the latest Euphoria is unlikely to work under any Linux DAW other than PyDAW as it uses his own forked ver...

Re: LMS Suite 12.07. Euphoria, the new king of Linux sample

Wha? A plugin depending on a DAW? Unheard of! That means its no longer a plugin then doesn't it? :/ The plugins don't depend on the DAW, but the DAW depends on the plugins. Furthermore, because the other Linux DAWs have such massive stabiltiy problems with hosting plugins, I'm only going to officia...

Re: LMS Suite 12.07. Euphoria, the new king of Linux sample

Hi Danboid, I've had a quick look at Euphoria previously although I've not tried actually using it before today and I have a problem, at least using the version included with the latest Muse svn. The problem arises if I try placing notes within a Euphoria/Muse track too close together because if I t...

Re: Does anyone use, or remember Chionic sampler? Om?

Hi Reduz. FWIW, I generally agree with almost everything you say. In fact, I made myself one on the most unpopular persons on this forum(perhaps tied with iowitch) by emphatically stating a lot of similar things to what you've said. 1) You can't reuse anyone else's work because it eventually stops b...
