Re: Guitarix: Tubes, Amp Impulses, overall usability

Finally had the time to test it out, build was quite easy on Arch using the AUR-package guitarix-git as a starting point for the deps. I have to say this is a big improvement :D ! It feels way more intuitive from the start and the "muffle" I was referring to seems to be gone! I focused on ...

Re: Carla on Arch: not loading project in headless mode

I didn't dig really deep into this problem because I found a workaround which suits my usecase (starting as systemd-service) even better than running headless. In case anyone needs a similar solution: I'm using Xvnc now to redirect carlas GUI to a single-purpose VNC display, thus avoiding the need f...

Carla on Arch: not loading project in headless mode

Hi! It seems carla is not loading the supplied projects file when used with the '-n' flag for headless operation. It starts up, I can connect via Carla-Control, but no plugins are loaded. I'm pretty sure this worked before because I had an old launch script lying around that sets OSC-Ports and launc...

Re: Guitarix: Tubes, Amp Impulses, overall usability

Woah, didn't expect that, I'd be honored to have taken part in improving guitarix :D
I'll definitively give it a shot soon!
By the way, I only had time to test some of your git projects so far but really liked the TinyTerror on a first glance :)

MODEP/Mod Duo cross-compile kpp with meson

Hi there! I'm trying to compile Kapitonov-Plugin-Pack by olegkapitonov (https://github.com/olegkapitonov/Kapitonov-Plugins-Pack) for armv7 to use it with MODEP (and with a Moddevice in the future if the cross compile works, this is kind of a proof of concept) I'm using the mod-plugin-builder local.e...

Re: Guitarix: Tubes, Amp Impulses, overall usability

tramp Thanks for giving this insight, it makes things way clearer for me. I honestly didn't think about the fact that having a large userbase makes a conservative approach basically the only way to go. I'm definitively going to check your gits as soon as possible merlyn I'm not as deep into electro...

Re: After upgrading to 20.04, Cadence launch jack failed

sudo setfacl -m u:username:rw /dev/snd/* That sets acl-permissions for your user, didn't even know that worked on device files... Since this solved your problem I suppose it is reboot stable? Seems like a dirty hack to me personally since the permissions should be granted by audio group membership ...

Re: Guitarix: Tubes, Amp Impulses, overall usability

Or your input level is too high for this preset. High output humbuckers by any chance? Not really, standard JB4s while testing. Shouldn't make a difference anyway if using Hi-Z input. My input level is about -20 to -5dB depending on playstyle and guitar (I don't use active pickups), so no danger th...

Re: Guitarix: Tubes, Amp Impulses, overall usability

I did try your preset, a little delay-heavy for my taste but quite nice. It did not solve my "fake-tube" problem though, muffling whenever there comes gain. Btw., I always use my own IRd cabs that I know very well with Klangfalter, multiple instances parallel if needed. I know there are th...

Re: Guitarix: Tubes, Amp Impulses, overall usability

I recommend for what you're looking for, do not run the master tube section ... That was a total gamechanger :D As soon as I bypassed the main "tube" section and purged everything thats supposed to be a "tube" (looking at you, poweramp) this thing started to work. Every sound in...

Re: Guitarix: Tubes, Amp Impulses, overall usability

merlyn uns4ph3 Thank you both for staying with me on this one, really enjoying the the discussion :) I can't imagine whoever made up this preset included extreme clipping. So that tells you something about your signal chain. My signal chain is allright, its battle-tested for years and works with ev...

Re: The Gnome Desktop and Music Production

Gnome-Shell is the core component of gnome, the "Desktop" itself if you will, so I kind of use stock gnome just skipping a lot of stuff that comes with it. My CPU is far from top-notch and pretty old, so I think it is some kind of a configuration or hardware thing. Maybe its actually Wayla...

Re: After upgrading to 20.04, Cadence launch jack failed

This reads like your soundcard is used by some other process and jack can't take control of it. You can use

Code: Select all

lsof /dev/snd/*
(maybe as root) to find the process and end it before starting jack. Also check if PCH,0 is the correct hardware for jack, thats an onboard card.

Re: Guitarix: Tubes, Amp Impulses, overall usability

merlyn I was referring to the poweramp module thats not part of the preset you mentioned. But it is the best clean I heard out of guitarix so far after removing the extreme clipping that comes with the preset, so thanks for the recommendation! Sadly, whenever I start to add either drive or move the...
