[02:31] <axgrndr> hello. new to linux. hoping can get some help. having issues getting flash to work in firefox. also cant get google chrome to work which is suppose to be alternative. have only issues on ubuntu studio.. works fine on other computer running mint. anyone able to pointme in right direction?
[04:01] <gartral> i really dislike it when people only stick around 5 minutes waiting for a question to be answered
[04:11] <gartral> ok all, I have a pro-audio question: I have a nice, old TS-10 synth/keyboard that i really.. really.. *REALLY* want some of the soundkits off of.. but.. I need a program that can automate the process.. any ideas?
[04:12] <holstein> soundkits?
[04:12] <holstein> you mean, the voices?
[04:12] <holstein> nothing to say that you have software that can do anything with that information
[04:13] <holstein> i'll tell you the ultimate answer that you likely dont want to hear.. nothing in linux is preventing that unit from being read/supported by it
[04:14] <holstein> that being said, i would just try #opensourcemusicians and elaborate about what it is that you are trying to do
[04:14] <gartral> holstein: sure, the whole thing can be controled by midi, I have a usb midi interface.. i want a program/script that, over midi, hits a key and records the input from the soundcard to a file
[04:15] <holstein> gartral: you mean, you want to sample the synth
[04:15] <gartral> holstein: yes.. I believe that's what I want
[04:15] <holstein> nothing i know of "automates" that.. but, i would refer to it as "sampling" in #opensourcemusicians
[04:15] <gartral> holstein: (sue me.. I'm not an audio technition or musician.. )
[04:16] <gartral> lol
[04:16] <holstein> gartral: im not tring to be rude/combative.. just trying to get you to the right place with the right terms
[04:16] <holstein> gartral: a lot of it is just knowing what to ask
[04:16] <gartral> I know, thanks
[04:16] <gartral> just like anything else!
[04:16] <holstein> i mean, you *could* script that.. or use some screen automation process
[04:16] <holstein> but, the pro's do it manually
[04:16] <holstein> they want to hear each one, and get different levels
[04:17] <holstein> you could, just setup a midi sequencer to play what you want to sample.. say, each note in each voice in 5 velocities
[04:17] <holstein> then, just track that to what you like.. and manually edit it
[04:17] <gartral> holstein: for *this* synth, that'd be 127 samples per sound.. as it's velocity responsive.. and I want over 2k samples..
[04:18] <holstein> gartral: yup... thats why sampling is so intense
[04:18] <gartral> I *really* want to automate it..
[04:18] <holstein> gartral: sure.. you'll need to ask in that channel
[04:18] <holstein> gartral: AFAIK, you cant
[04:18] <holstein> gartral: folks get *big* money to do what you are talking about
[04:18] <holstein> gartral: its not trivial..
[04:19] <gartral> might be interesting to build an application for it..
[04:19] <holstein> gartral: you just need to seperate out the audio in teh file i just explained how to make above
[04:20] <gartral> holstein: use arecord to record each sound to it's own file! :P
[04:20] <holstein> gartral: no
[04:20] <holstein> gartral: listen
[04:20] <holstein> gartral: you create a midi sequencing routine.. the synth plays whatever you like.. you record that *all* in one big file
[04:21] <holstein> gartral: *then* you can either manually edit that.. or, look for something that seperates it out based on silence
[04:21] <holstein> i would just do it manually
[04:22] <holstein> thats the only way to know for sure
[04:22] <holstein> but, folks in #opensourcemusicians know more about it than i do..
[04:22] <gartral> holstein: the "one big file" method seems... backwards.. meh..
[04:22] <gartral> anyway, off to #opensourcemusicians
[04:23] <holstein> gartral: yeah?
[04:23] <holstein> gartral: why?
[04:24] <holstein> gartral: why not do it afterwards? there *are* things that can read the silence and seperate it
[04:24] <holstein> gartral: there are also things that can trigger whatever you like
[04:24] <holstein> gartral: you can ask in #ardour about setting up different files.. but, the files wil be in the same project likely
[04:24] <gartral> holstein: because hydrogen and rosegarden both use the seperate sounds
[04:25] <holstein> gartral: sure.. im talking about for just getting the sounds, friend
[04:25] <holstein> gartral: you are jumping to wanting to hit a button and have it all done for you
[04:25] <holstein> gartral: all im saying is.. hit a button, get a big file.. hit another.. get a bunch of little files
[04:25] <gartral> holstein: true
[04:25] <holstein> gartral: its just one other step.. and i *have* done these steps.. so i mention them becuase they are plausible
[04:26] <holstein> its something you could literally do right ow
[04:26] <holstein> now*
[04:28] <holstein> gartral: i would also like to have them all in one file for editing
[04:28] <holstein> i could apply a comp or leveling to the *entire* set of samples
[04:28] <holstein> then, parse them out
[20:31] <Perlado> nas al personal!!
[20:33] <Perlado> bueno pues otra vez sera, saludos!!
