cagritepebasili | hi | 08:55 |
cfhowlett | cagritepebasili, hey. US is usually used for developing - it's for multimedia creation | 08:55 |
cagritepebasili | cfhowlett, i realize that actually, but i mean is that all ? just multimedia creation ? | 08:57 |
cagritepebasili | for instnse im a programmer so what can i get from US | 08:57 |
cfhowlett | cagritepebasili, it has everything the vanilla ubuntu has plus the multimedia creations apps overlaid on it | 08:58 |
cfhowlett | cagritepebasili, not much benefit if you are not a creator - unsure why you think there might be ... | 08:58 |
cagritepebasili | dont get me wrong btw im a new in linux | 08:58 |
cfhowlett | cagritepebasili, OK try this: | 08:58 |
cfhowlett | cagritepebasili, dell has the xps13 developer edition laptop with the customized sputnik ubuntu ISO. | 08:59 |
cfhowlett | cagritepebasili, why not either install sputnik or add the sputnik packages to your ubuntu | 08:59 |
cagritepebasili | why not u right | 09:00 |

TerranceWarrior | is Ardour very buggy or is it just me? | 23:19 |
holstein | TerranceWarrior: not here.. | 23:21 |
holstein | ardour3? | 23:21 |
holstein | is it ardour? or JACK? ...are you trying to push your hardware too hard? | 23:23 |
TerranceWarrior | thats what *she* said! :) | 23:26 |
TerranceWarrior | i had ardour working fine well what fine is to ardour. | 23:27 |
holstein | TerranceWarrior: ? | 23:27 |
TerranceWarrior | exit, come back in again. poof no longer works. | 23:27 |
holstein | TerranceWarrior: i use it all the time, friend.. its quite stable, and solid here | 23:27 |
TerranceWarrior | impossible to get going again. and I'm an ex software engineer. | 23:27 |
TerranceWarrior | maybe I should use the source code version? | 23:27 |
holstein | TerranceWarrior: i mean, i dont consider it a compromise in any way.. i prefer it, and chose to use it | 23:27 |
TerranceWarrior | I am just using whatever is in the ubuntu colletion. | 23:28 |
holstein | TerranceWarrior: i use the one from the repos, or the one from las on the site | 23:28 |
TerranceWarrior | i'll try the latest. | 23:28 |
holstein | TerranceWarrior: sure.. try the one from las, if you like.. i just pay for the latest binary | 23:28 |
TerranceWarrior | i am so pissed today. nothing but trouble recording using sound recorder and then i find my new korg has 3 fucked up notes. | 23:28 |
TerranceWarrior | the resonance of them is terrible. | 23:29 |
TerranceWarrior | it's like a synth wrench in an otherwise good sound. all the others notes are fine. | 23:29 |
holstein | TerranceWarrior: do try and keep in a family show in here. thanks | 23:29 |
holstein | you should be able to adjust in whatever sequencer you are using | 23:30 |
holstein | or, play it in off an octave, and avoid the bad keys | 23:30 |
TerranceWarrior | sorry | 23:33 |
TerranceWarrior | holstein: ha, what a hack! | 23:33 |
holstein | TerranceWarrior: ? | 23:34 |
TerranceWarrior | it makes no sense to have some bad keys on a $1200 keyboard. | 23:34 |
holstein | TerranceWarrior: you think its a hack to avoid the broken keys? | 23:34 |
TerranceWarrior | holstein: absolutely. | 23:34 |
holstein | ok | 23:34 |
holstein | well, replace them? | 23:34 |
holstein | im not sure how to respond to that.. | 23:34 |
TerranceWarrior | your not listening, it's not the keys, it's the sound they generate. | 23:34 |
holstein | i mean, fix it, replace it, or work around it.. | 23:34 |
holstein | or deal with it | 23:34 |
holstein | TerranceWarrior: i dont think so | 23:34 |
holstein | TerranceWarrior: dont use that sound then.. or, see if you can go in and adjust some settings | 23:35 |
holstein | shouldnt be that 3 notes in one sound setting in that unit is "bad" | 23:35 |
TerranceWarrior | holstein: yeah, i have to work more with it. but that is sound 00, the default! | 23:35 |
TerranceWarrior | What a hack! | 23:35 |
holstein | maybe you edited them by accedient | 23:35 |
holstein | accident* | 23:35 |
TerranceWarrior | holstein: maybe not. | 23:35 |
holstein | TerranceWarrior: im not following you.. on "what a hack" | 23:36 |
holstein | sounds like you have bad keys, or have edited the sound.. you can always just midi out from that unit, and see if the keys are effecting a sound that is not being gernerated from that unit | 23:36 |
TerranceWarrior | i am going to check the speakers. but i feel that the source is the sound generation in this Korg. | 23:37 |
holstein | sure.. put on some headphones.. that'll rule out the speakers.. try another voice, and an external voice as well | 23:38 |
fibz_ | i would think it's the korg | 23:38 |
TerranceWarrior | all other notes are fine and these notes are directly in the middle, the worst place for them to be. | 23:38 |
TerranceWarrior | fibz_: +1! | 23:39 |
holstein | sure.. sounds like its the keys.. they get crap in them, or break | 23:39 |
TerranceWarrior | fibz_: i like you, you're reasonable. | 23:39 |
holstein | you'll be able to tell by bypassing the internal voices | 23:39 |
fibz_ | which sucks because im sure it wasnt cheap | 23:39 |
holstein | the keys usually are.. under $20 US | 23:40 |
holstein | for most models | 23:40 |
fibz_ | i dont think it's the key ut the logic | 23:40 |
holstein | yeah, you wouldnt.. but, it can be | 23:40 |
holstein | the mechanism | 23:40 |
holstein | i have a yamaha like that.. and i cleaned out a few alesis's like that recently | 23:40 |
holstein | same deal... stuck on "loud" pretty much.. but, those were just dirty | 23:41 |
holstein | but.. what do i know.. i just fix things when they are broken ;) | 23:41 |
TerranceWarrior | The D Key is terrible on headphones, the other ones got a bit better. | 23:46 |
holstein | so, its likely not the speakers then | 23:47 |
TerranceWarrior | yamaha has terrible sound but they made decent grade hammer keys. | 23:47 |
TerranceWarrior | This is not funny, nor this is a joke. | 23:47 |
holstein | probably either the logic boards or the keys/mechanism | 23:47 |
TerranceWarrior | thing is i have proof that it is really bad. | 23:47 |
holstein | TerranceWarrior: im not joking, or laughing at you | 23:48 |
holstein | TerranceWarrior: im not saying its not bad | 23:48 |
holstein | TerranceWarrior: im suggesting what i think could be the issue.. but, i'll just leave you to it | 23:48 |
fibz_ | worth breaking it down and taking a look, or just return if in warranty | 23:48 |
holstein | ^yup.. it could be an easy clean to fix type thing.. | 23:49 |
TerranceWarrior | what else could I get in it features set or price range? | 23:50 |
TerranceWarrior | This is not good. | 23:50 |
holstein | im not suggesting a replacement | 23:50 |
holstein | id just fix that one | 23:51 |
TerranceWarrior | This happened to me 2 years ago with a Flamenco Yahmaha Guitar. | 23:51 |
holstein | not likely... | 23:51 |
holstein | guitars are quite different | 23:51 |
fibz_ | i like roland | 23:51 |
TerranceWarrior | holstein: Can I borry your oscilliscope and chip making facilities? | 23:51 |
holstein | anyways.. i would diagnose what the issue is.. and even if its a board, i would think about replacing it | 23:51 |
TerranceWarrior | fibz_: ok! :) Thats *something*. | 23:51 |
fibz_ | casio has a good model but the keys are loud | 23:52 |
TerranceWarrior | All the other notes I love on this though. | 23:52 |
TerranceWarrior | Does this happen in the industry? | 23:52 |
holstein | then, just use those | 23:52 |
holstein | TerranceWarrior: yes | 23:52 |
TerranceWarrior | holstein: are you okay? | 23:52 |
holstein | TerranceWarrior: it happens to *all* gear, at some point... they can all get dirty or break | 23:52 |
TerranceWarrior | holstein: you have in your mind that this is a mechanical problem. of which I'm not sure why. | 23:52 |
holstein | TerranceWarrior: when i encountered the exact issue you are explaing on more than one keyboard, cleaning the mechanism repaired it | 23:53 |
TerranceWarrior | holstein: if you say so. | 23:53 |
holstein | TerranceWarrior: because, as i stated, when i cleaned the mechanical mechanisem on more than one unit that had that exact issue, it addressed that issue | 23:53 |
TerranceWarrior | it's 7 days old! | 23:53 |
holstein | TerranceWarrior: then, as already suggested, return it to the store | 23:53 |
TerranceWarrior | holstein: E.P. Mark V Distortion and those same keys are fine. | 23:56 |
holstein | TerranceWarrior: ok. enjoy it then | 23:56 |
holstein | TerranceWarrior: i would return it | 23:56 |
TerranceWarrior | It's a recording or electronic generation error. | 23:56 |
holstein | TerranceWarrior: could be the distortion has different settings that equalize the sounds a bit more, and make the issue less obvious | 23:57 |
holstein | TerranceWarrior: ok | 23:57 |
TerranceWarrior | I get the feeling it's a design issue. | 23:57 |
TerranceWarrior | holstein: are you new to music? | 23:57 |
holstein | TerranceWarrior: no | 23:57 |
holstein | TerranceWarrior: im a volunteer here | 23:57 |
TerranceWarrior | argh | 23:58 |
holstein | TerranceWarrior: i also repair many instuments.. but, i'll just wait til you have a question, if you prefer | 23:58 |
TerranceWarrior | not happy. | 23:58 |
fibz_ | there is also #opensourcemusicians | 23:58 |
holstein | TerranceWarrior: i would just return it, and ask | 23:58 |
TerranceWarrior | fibz_: yes thank you. | 23:58 |
