zequence | len-dt: We might as well get email adresses for everyone at this point, since perhaps only one or two would have any doubts about it | 00:37 |

len-dt | zequence, I have nothing against it, just that I am not a PR kind of person and so don't "need" it. | 01:34 |
holstein | zequence: you think A3 adding midi will kill off any of the other midi sequencers? | 21:51 |
holstein | i dont think anyone will stop doing what they are doing. personally | 21:51 |
zequence | holstein: I'm sure some people will start using Ardour3 for both audio and midi, but the way it's now, I don't think everyone will find it full featured and stable enough for their needs | 21:53 |
zequence | Probably depends on how much one uses midi | 21:54 |
holstein | i mean, the little projects.. you think they will just give up? | 21:54 |
zequence | like muse? Don't think so | 21:54 |
len-dt | What little bit of midi I have done holstein, I have preferred to have separate from audio though sync-able. But then I am not really a "synth" person... or maybe I am, perhaps I should say I am not a KB replaces things person. | 21:54 |
holstein | len-dt: im not a synth guy either... i usually route it in ardour like an audio channel and track it live | 21:55 |
zequence | I do some midi sometimes. I actually don't find any of the sequencers adequate | 21:56 |
zequence | As soon as you start doing anything else than straight forward 4/4, you start hitting problems | 21:56 |
len-dt | That is, I enjoy synth as a lead synth sounding instrument.... Played by a KB player in real time :) | 21:56 |
zequence | The worst one was notes not being played | 21:56 |
zequence | It's funny that all of the sequncers were somewhat similar in the bugginess. This was alsa midi | 21:57 |
zequence | That may be the strenght of Ardour, namely jack midi | 21:57 |
len-dt | zequence, Quantitize off and ignore the bars | 21:57 |
zequence | len-dt: I wrote the notes. Didn't play them | 21:57 |
zequence | And I was doing tempo changes, etc | 21:57 |
zequence | Needed click for recording audio too | 21:58 |
len-dt | zequence, that is beyond me... or maybe just feels laborious because I don't even read music well let alone write it. | 21:58 |
zequence | The point is, none of the applications did what they were supposed to do | 21:59 |
zequence | The were supposed to play back all of the notes, not just most of them | 21:59 |
len-dt | Yup. I agree with that, and I would find it more frustrating because I find it hard already. | 22:00 |
zequence | jack midi is a lot more solid, but I'm not sure the midi implementation in Ardour, at least editing it, is either efficient or solid. I would expect playback to be though | 22:01 |
len-dt | The last sequencer I really used was a shareware thing on my Atari years ago. It was really solid time wise and easy to use, though it probably lacked a lot things considered normal now. None of the windows stuff at the time (pre 90s) was stable enough time wise to make music IMO | 22:05 |
