[15:55] <Chamunks> http://paste.thezomg.com/4181/44527607/ Linthesia crashes on loading of a mid file.
[16:36] <holstein> Chamunks: i would try it with a different midi file, and i would try as a different user.. i would try playing the midi file with another application
[16:37] <holstein> looks to me like it could be as simple as the UI not finding the font it needs "cannot load PangoFont"
[16:38] <holstein> i would also try stepping the version back to an earlier one if there is one
[16:38] <holstein> i would also consider trying a newer version from http://sourceforge.net/projects/linthesia/
[16:53] <Joao> hi, can help me?
[16:54] <holstein> Joao: just ask, and if anyone is around, and can help, we will :)
[16:55] <Joao> how to edit applicatons menu on ubuntu studio? this is possible in xubuntu
[16:55] <holstein> Joao: its XFCE.. should be simlar... i do it manually, or i just use a dock, or kupfer
[16:56] <holstein> http://wiki.xfce.org/howto/customize-menu is what i suggest
[16:56] <holstein> if you get stuck, or cant find anyone, feel free to try #xubuntu
[16:58] <len-dt> The menu editor Alacarte works easy
[16:58] <Joao> ok, I'll try if I can not come back here
[16:58] <holstein> i read there were issues with alacarte, but i never had issues
[16:58] <Joao> thanks
[16:58] <len-dt> It can be installed with synaptic or apt-get
[17:00] <Chamunks> thanks holstein
[17:04] <Joao> Hello, I could edit the menu using Alacarte, thanks for the suggestion len-dt
[17:05] <len-dt> You are welcome, Alacarte is included in studio 12.10.
[17:07] <Joao> ok, when they will launch the ubuntu studio 12.10?
[17:08] <len-dt> 2012 october
[17:18] <Joao> Ah, another question
[17:18] <Joao> like changing the wallpaper of the login screen?
[17:18] <Chamunks> If i were looking for a keyboard (piano) that would plug into a usb port and not be terrible and be around 50-100$
[17:18] <Chamunks> what would I be looking for.
[17:20] <holstein> Chamunks: i have an maudio keystation
[17:21] <holstein> "just works"... not horrid
[17:21] <Chamunks> got myself a nice M-Audio producer usb mic its great I love the thing for the price it rocks.
[17:22] <Chamunks> looks like a nice enough  board doesnt have a bunch of frilly options I'll likely never understand/use
[17:26] <Chamunks> ugh yikes needs own power i wonder how hard it would be to just splice some usb cords together and toss in a resistor or something and have the same voltage :P
[17:27] <Chamunks> anyways thanks again for the reccomendation :)
[17:28] <holstein> Chamunks: mine is USB powered
[17:28] <Chamunks> http://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=35_765_659&item_id=007602 this is the one thats mainly advertised
[17:28] <Chamunks> this ones keys dont look as nice but is probbly a way better deal http://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=35_765_659&item_id=009792
[17:29] <Chamunks> especially for someone like me who's mainly looking to just mess around and maybe concidder learning it.
[17:29] <holstein> havent played the 37 note one
[17:29] <holstein> the other one is the one i have
[17:29] <holstein> its USB powered
[17:29] <Chamunks> I wont learn it if its not around.
[17:29] <Chamunks> so you've got the 61?
[17:29] <holstein> 49
[17:30] <holstein> i dont need a piano replacement though
[17:30] <holstein> and i wouldnt consider anything under 5 or 600 US to get anywhere near that
[17:30] <holstein> that = replacing a piano
[17:31] <Chamunks> http://www.canadacomputers.com/advanced_search_result.php?keywords=m-audio+&sid=82bgdp504u234ntlg64sh6hvk0&x=0&y=0 in that list theres a couple 49 keys
[17:31] <Chamunks> I prefer new but I can look on craigs/kijiji
[17:31] <holstein> i would get a used one if you see one
[17:32] <Chamunks> well i wouldnt really need anything necessarily piano quality.
[17:33] <Chamunks> but it would be nice to aim as good as i can whilst being a cheap not to serious person about it.
[17:33] <Chamunks> I've got a piano thats slightly out of tune downstairs in my house but if its not by my computer I'm highly likely to not try it.
[17:34] <holstein> non weighted, and semi weighted are not piano quality
[17:35] <Chamunks> ah fair
[17:35] <holstein> the roland V is the only thing that comes close to replacing a piano in my opinion
[17:35] <holstein> i like the nord gear, but thats not for piano replacement
[17:35] <holstein> you really cant replace a piano for most things
[17:35] <holstein> depends on what you are doing and want to accomplish
[17:36] <holstein> if you want a USB midi keyboard to dip a toe in the water with synths in linux.. the maudio is a good value
[17:36] <holstein> everything else above that price point is, in my opinion, not worth the extra $$
[17:36] <holstein> if you want a piano, i say, tune your piano
[17:37] <Chamunks> heh seems intimidating
[17:37] <holstein> tuning your piano? i assumed you would get a tuner
[17:37] <Chamunks> yeh i wonder if theres an app like for guitars
[17:38] <holstein> sure, and thats about 4% of it
[17:38] <holstein> you need the hammer.. a nice one
[17:38] <holstein> you need to know how to set the pins
[17:38] <holstein> there are reasons why everyone tunes a guitar, and no one tunes a piano
[17:39] <holstein> getting the pitch is not that big a deal.. keeping it there, and dealing with the tempered scale... thats the art of tuning a piano
[17:39] <holstein> whatever your tuner will charge you is worth every penny
[17:39] <holstein> usually you can get someone for $40 or so US
[17:40] <holstein> when i get a new instrument, like where i am now with a piano, i will tune it a few times myself to get it up to pitch, or close to it
[17:40] <holstein> then, i pay a pro to come in for a few hours... tune... calibrate
[17:43] <Chamunks> :)
[17:44] <Chamunks> i like the sound of this process.
[17:44] <Chamunks> well in the mean time thanks for the advice I'll look into that fix for linthesia when im back in a few days im off for the weekend cheers :)
[17:44] <holstein> Chamunks: anytime!
[18:05] <len-dt> holstein, I actually prefer a semi-weighted KB. A piano replacement is not much good for doing strings/synth sounds.
[18:05] <holstein> i would think if synth is your instrument, you might like it
[18:06] <len-dt> I use an old DX7.
[18:07] <holstein> nice... classic!
[18:08] <len-dt> I like the feel better than most USB KB it is weighted enough to do percussive and light enough for organ/synth/string stuff. I am not a KB player.
[18:08] <len-dt> I just like to add simple stuff.
[20:25] <microcluster> hi
