| greg__ | @bluescream does it work with Ardour? | 00:05 |
|---|---|---|
| bluesscream | yes, you can control and play all your synthesizers and other midi apps live with your pc keyboard, connect and record them by jack to ardour. | 01:16 |
| bluesscream | http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/RwZnRT52 | 01:16 |
| persia | That looks much nicer than vkeybd | 01:20 |
| bluesscream | don't follow this link I forgot how to work with pastebin | 01:22 |
| bluesscream | yes vmpk is much more elaborated | 01:24 |
| * persia wonders why it's "Priority: extra" | 01:26 | |
| persia | Odd. keyboard only seems to control one octave, split between two "hands". With the "left hand", I seem to only be able to press three keys at once, and four with the "right hand" | 01:32 |
| bluesscream | no such limits here | 01:39 |
| persia | Pressing 'Z'+'X'+'C'+'S'+'D' gets you 5-note dischordant polyphony? | 01:44 |
| persia | I did find a second octave (more like 1.5 octaves) though: seems to be a 2-manual device (which is nifty in many ways) | 01:45 |
| persia | (from 'Q' and from 'Z') | 01:46 |
| bluesscream | you're right, these are limitations by these pc-keyboards. They are not constructed for this use. Same with virtualkeyboard. It's a poor substitute for real piano keys | 01:57 |
| bluesscream | you can modify settings like octave space, language specific keys etc | 02:00 |
| bluesscream | imo you will not use a pc keybord to perform live music with virtuosity. They are just useful for saving an idea or as an additional controller i.E. for a continuo in a complex performance | 02:14 |
| persia | Ah, so it's a PC keyboard limitation? Using a fancier keyboard (e.g. a gaming keyboard) might allow wider use? That sounds promising. | 02:41 |
| persia | (and yes, one hopes anyone serious about it is able to get a proper master keyboard) | 02:41 |
| Marians | Buenas noches! Alguien habla español? | 05:00 |
| persia | Some folks do, but the charter for this channel is English-only. | 05:01 |
| persia | !es | 05:01 |
| ubottu | En la mayoría de canales de Ubuntu se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español o charlar entra en el canal #ubuntu-es. Escribe "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y dale a enter. | 05:01 |
| persia | You can ask a question in Spanish if you must, but no promises that anyone both knows the answer and reads+writes Spanish is around. | 05:01 |
| Marians | gracias! | 05:03 |
