[00:18] <OvenWerk1> iUnify2: Another thing to try while installing is to not select no free software and update while installing.
[00:19] <OvenWerk1> iUnify2: It would be great if you tried all these separately so we knew which one actually helped, but you may be more inclined to try them all at once.
[00:20] <OvenWerk1> *non-free
[00:21] <OvenWerk1> The thing to remember about non-free sw is that it includes the mp3 decoder and others. but I notice it seems to also include a version of mesa which is video related
[00:48] <studio-user474> hello
[00:49] <studio-user474> is my firsttime in ububbtustudio
[00:49] <studio-user474> can anybody helpme-?
[00:50] <holstein> studio-user474: i can later.. sorry
[00:50] <holstein> try #opensourcemusicians
[17:34] <brody> hello music masters o/
[17:34] <brody> i'm enjoying your awesome distro :)
[17:35] <brody> i like rock and whatnot
[17:35] <brody> i want to do some work that doesn't sound electronic
[17:36] <OvenWerk1> Cool, glad you enjoy it.
[17:36] <brody> i can play guitar, so that's not a problem, but i would need good basses, and maybe strings
[17:36] <brody> is zynaddsubfx the best choice available?
[17:36] <OvenWerk1> Then you can use ardour and record straight from audio in
[17:36] <brody> piano...
[17:37] <brody> right, but what can I use with midi?
[17:37] <brody> i don't own a violin, or a a bass
[17:37] <OvenWerk1> I am not the best one to ask on that. There are a number of synths though.
[17:37] <OvenWerk1> it is best to try them looking for sounds you like.
[17:38] <brody> right thx
[17:38] <OvenWerk1> Try Qsynth it has downloadable sound fonts
[17:38] <brody> oh
[17:38] <brody> i'll do
[17:38] <brody> i'm using qtractor, is it the best?
[17:39] <OvenWerk1> It will most likely have sounds that try to mimic nature more than some of the others.
[17:39] <OvenWerk1> So far I have done all of my recording as analog in.
[17:40] <brody> that sounds much better
[17:40] <OvenWerk1> qtractor is god though. It does (like anything I guess) take some learning.
[17:40] <brody> and you didn't use any sequencer?
[17:40] <brody> just ardour
[17:40] <OvenWerk1> No, I have used hydrogen as a meteronome, that is about it.
[17:41] <OvenWerk1> I am not a keyboard player.
[17:41] <brody> :)
[17:41] <OvenWerk1> I have done thre or four guitar tracks, a bass and vocals.
[17:42] <OvenWerk1> I do have a set of pads for drums, but I need to make a table for it so I get the right height to drum with.
[17:42] <OvenWerk1> It is just 8 pads in a box.
[17:43] <brody> with the default presets?
[17:43] <OvenWerk1> I would take midi out and feed it to a sequencer then probably run it into either qsynth or hydrogen.
[17:44] <OvenWerk1> I am sort of waiting for ardour 3 which has midi tracks.
[17:44]  * OvenWerk1 is not spending as much time making music as he would like.
[17:47] <OvenWerk1> I would split each note (each drum sound) onto it's own track so I can change the sound just by transposing... and have the advantage of different drum kits for each sound as well if I wanted.
[17:48] <OvenWerk1> The sounds that come with the pads are a bit over the top.
[22:28] <antorni> hello, is anybody using milkytracker on ubuntustudio? I have a little question about the MIDI
[22:49] <SunStar> antorni, you might also want to try #opensourcemusicians
[22:50] <antorni> SunStar, I will, thanks for the advice (:
