| fedel | hi! someone knows if can i use virtual instruments (in vst) in linux? | 16:33 |
| fedel | and how I do this | 16:33 |
| holstein | hey fedel | 16:34 |
| fedel | hi holstein (and sorry about my english, i don't "speak" very well) | 16:35 |
| holstein | fedel: no worries :) | 16:37 |
| holstein | there is a way to do what you want to do | 16:38 |
| holstein | i think it depends on the VST's | 16:38 |
| fedel | hum, ok | 16:38 |
| * holstein doesnt do much MIDI | 16:39 | |
| holstein | what VST's are you trying to use? | 16:39 |
| fedel | i would like to use a vst plugin that emulate instruments | 16:39 |
| holstein | yeah... do you know which one? | 16:39 |
| fedel | one moment | 16:40 |
| fedel | like nanotron (http://streetvst.blogspot.com/2007/06/nanotron.html) | 16:41 |
| fedel | it's emulate a mellotron | 16:41 |
| fedel | (i'm trying to use this and others vst's to stop using Ableton Live, I would like to use only linux to make my music's) | 16:42 |
| holstein | let e give you a couple links | 16:42 |
| holstein | and a suggestion | 16:42 |
| holstein | -- /j #opensourcemusicians | 16:43 |
| holstein | some guys over there have WAY more MIDI experience | 16:43 |
| holstein | http://myubuntu.info/Info/vst/ | 16:43 |
| holstein | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudioPreparation | 16:43 |
| fedel | hum thanks, i'm looking for some channel abour this | 16:43 |
| holstein | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=976079 | 16:43 |
| holstein | ALSO | 16:44 |
| holstein | just try looking for something in linux that does what you want | 16:44 |
| holstein | there are all kinds of soft-synths and 'sound-font' players | 16:44 |
| holstein | when i made the switch from cubase on XP | 16:45 |
| holstein | i spent some time trying to get my favorite VST plug-ins working | 16:45 |
| holstein | audio plugins | 16:45 |
| holstein | then i just tried the plugins that we have freely available | 16:46 |
| holstein | and for the most part, i feel they are much nicer | 16:46 |
| holstein | and i was able to find better alternatives to the software i was use to | 16:46 |
| fedel | cool, thanks for the tips | 16:47 |
| fedel | i'm starting to use linux for music | 16:47 |
| holstein | welcome aboard fedel :) | 16:47 |
| fedel | thank you holstein =) | 16:48 |
| holstein | i hope you find it as rewarding as i have | 16:48 |
| fedel | i hope too! | 16:49 |
| fedel | i need to go now, but i'll go back another day. thank you again holstein | 16:49 |
| holstein | later | 16:50 |
| fedel | see you | 16:50 |
| ume | hi | 17:56 |
| holstein | hey ume | 17:59 |
| ume | :'( | 18:06 |
| ska | Do I need a midi-card to use things like rosegarden and zynaddsubfx ? If so, is there a recommeneded page? | 20:09 |
| holstein | hey ska | 20:09 |
| holstein | you dont | 20:09 |
| holstein | you can use your qwerty keyboard to 'get your feet wet' | 20:09 |
| holstein | OR any other method of creating MIDI input | 20:10 |
| holstein | like, drawing the data in on a piano roll editor | 20:10 |
| ska | holstein: We also have a low-range yamaha keyboard with usb midi-output. | 20:11 |
| holstein | http://www.rosegardenmusic.com/doc/en/matrix-view.html | 20:11 |
| ska | I suppose I need a way to get sound out too. I was looking at rakarrack too and it looks decent. | 20:12 |
| holstein | ska: have you plugged it in to ubuntu yet? | 20:12 |
| holstein | the USB midi keyboard? | 20:12 |
| holstein | ska: rakarrack is Fn awesome | 20:12 |
| ska | holstein: not yet.. I need to try that. Perhaps I should install ubuntustudio first :) | 20:12 |
| holstein | BUT its only an effects processor | 20:12 |
| holstein | ska: are you running ubuntu? | 20:13 |
| holstein | you can get a lucid live CD | 20:13 |
| holstein | and run something like 'lsusb' in a terminal | 20:13 |
| holstein | and you should see the USB midi keyboard listed | 20:13 |
| ska | holstein: sure.. I saw that raka got their fx from zynaddsubfx.. Yea I run generic ubuntu now.. but I need to re-install because the disks are old and failing. | 20:13 |
| ska | Ok.. Im just starting out.. My normal work is linux/unix sysadmin, but I want to get back into music. | 20:15 |
| holstein | cool | 20:15 |
| ska | I'm sorta lost with midi. | 20:15 |
| holstein | check out #opensourcemusicians | 20:15 |
| * holstein doesnt do a lot of MIDI either | 20:15 | |
| ska | ok.. cool.. I'll try to hook some components together and re-visit. | 20:16 |
| holstein | sure | 20:16 |
| holstein | and you can try an ubuntu-based distro with a LIVE disc | 20:16 |
| holstein | something like pure-dyne | 20:16 |
| holstein | or KSstudio | 20:16 |
| holstein | and see if your gear is compatible | 20:16 |
| holstein | oops | 20:17 |
| holstein | KXstudio ** | 20:17 |
| ska | sure.. I have a near-new AMD 64 system with a 3-core.. | 20:18 |
| ska | cpu that is. | 20:18 |
| holstein | that should do it ;) | 20:18 |
| ska | I got it to do some of this type of stuff. For my son too.. graphics etc. | 20:18 |
| ska | Does ubuntustudio have a live cd? | 20:38 |
| holstein | ska: thats the issue | 21:42 |
| holstein | if you want to see how all the studio software works on a live distro | 21:43 |
| holstein | you'll need to check out something like pure-dyne | 21:43 |
| ska | ok.. thanks again. | 22:02 |
| Pablo_ | what would be a good USB 4 in 2 out interface for 8.04? | 22:57 |
| holstein | hey Pablo_ | 22:57 |
| holstein | do you need mic preamps? | 22:58 |
| holstein | http://www.samsontech.com/products/productpage.cfm?prodid=1901 | 22:58 |
| holstein | that thing is nice for the money | 22:58 |
| Pablo_ | no, but cheap is good | 22:58 |
| holstein | and quite veratile as a stand alone device | 22:59 |
| holstein | Pablo_: does it have to be USB? | 22:59 |
| holstein | how cheap? | 23:00 |
| holstein | whats your budget? | 23:00 |
| Pablo_ | i need USB for portability and ill be coming out of a mixer | 23:01 |
| Pablo_ | about $150-200 | 23:01 |
| Pablo_ | I was just wondering about stability | 23:02 |
| holstein | http://www.amazon.com/Behringer-UFO202-U-Phono-High-Quality-Interface/dp/B002GHBYZ0 | 23:03 |
| holstein | this is 2 in 2 out | 23:03 |
| holstein | and under 40 bucks | 23:03 |
| holstein | in my opinion | 23:03 |
| holstein | if your not going to get something with balanced inputs | 23:03 |
| holstein | you might as well go with that | 23:03 |
| holstein | i know it works well in ubuntu | 23:04 |
| holstein | decent latency | 23:04 |
| holstein | SORRY | 23:04 |
| holstein | http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0023BYDHK/ref=pd_lpo_k2_dp_sr_2?pf_rd_p=486539851&pf_rd_s=lpo-top-stripe-1&pf_rd_t=201&pf_rd_i=B002GHBYZ0&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_r=0JDQACVT5JKPM2TM08X7 | 23:04 |
| holstein | thtas the one | 23:04 |

| holstein | Pablo_: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0023BYDHK/ref=pd_lpo_k2_dp_sr_2?pf_rd_p=486539851&pf_rd_s=lpo-top-stripe-1&pf_rd_t=201&pf_rd_i=B002GHBYZ0&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_r=0JDQACVT5JKPM2TM08X7 | 23:15 |
| holstein | thats the one | 23:15 |
| holstein | the other one i linked is the 'phono' version | 23:15 |
| Pablo_ | sorry about that. | 23:16 |
| Pablo_ | does behringer stuff mostly work? i really need to be able to isolate 3 mics. | 23:18 |
| holstein | i can only say for sure about that one unit | 23:23 |
| holstein | because a fend uses it | 23:23 |
| holstein | and likes it | 23:23 |
| holstein | friend* | 23:23 |
| holstein | Pablo_: you should look into the http://www.m-audio.com/products/en_us/FastTrackPro.html | 23:24 |
| Pablo_ | do you know of anyone havimg success witht the fastrack stuff? | 23:37 |
| holstein | not sure | 23:38 |
| holstein | i got an maudio midi keyboard | 23:38 |
| holstein | works great | 23:38 |
| holstein | other than that, i dont do audio over USB | 23:38 |
| Pablo_ | Im trying to get a decent laptop based rig so i dont have to gut my main system every other week. | 23:40 |
