Can I control parameters in the Calf Plugin synthesizers(Monosynth and Organ) via MIDI controllers? And if so, how?
Also, if not, please tell me about software synths that i can fully control(i know Zynadd already
I've searched the web and all but nothing turned up.
Is there a way to have the Invada and Calf pugins show their GUIs in Opensuse 11.2 with Ardour 2.8.4. The GUIs will show when opened outside of Ardour using the Calfjackhost but not in Ardour. The GUIs will display in Ardour when using other Linux distro I try but can't get them to show in Opensuse.

Currently I use JACK to control the transport of all the aps i use to make music with ardour, hydrogen and rosegarden mainly. I also have an external midi drum machine that I sometimes hook up into the mix via midi in/out, my drum machine (yamaha ry to be exact can send and receive midi data. My question is can I use the transport controls on my external drum machine to control JACK's transport controls? If there is already am app that does something like that, excellent!

View 9 Replies View RelatedI am building a midi synthesizer that I'd like to be able to control from linux. I know its a rather broad question, but, how do I go about this? At this point the hardware consists of a simple UART bridge, and I've already written a simple C++ program using termios to send the raw midi data to the device. Obviously I don't want to write a player/sequencer from scratch, so where should I start if I wanted to get this thing to work with, say, a sequencer like rosegarden? Do I write the driver for rosegarden, or hook into alsa or what?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have been researching this for a few days and I am getting nowhere. All I want to do is play midi files in Ubuntu 10.04 and also in Firefox. If I install, for ex. Rosegarden it will play the midi but without sound.I have timidity installed as well as mozplugger. From the start midis partially work in Totem, but the sound is far from right.
I never had this much of an issue with midi before, really starting to irritate me.Is this a pulseaudio issue? I really don't feel like playing around with jack either, never have luck with it. It seems that installing timidty should have allowed me to play midi files on my computer.
Currently enjoying TuxGuitar, but I was wondering if there is a way to use some sort of Creative Commons drum kit samples instead of the current MIDI drums. Also would like to use some sort of synth or samples for guitars. I have looked for tutorials on this, but have not found anything yet.

I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 with the Kubuntu desktop environment. I'm trying to use my MIDI keyboard through ALSA, Linuxsampler and Qsampler. But I still haven't got a sound out of it, and I fear that the information about the existence of the keyboard doesn't get through. That, or I don't know how to configure properly.
In sndstat, both my sound card (Guitar Rig) and my keyboard (Hua Xing) is showing up:

I am looking for a software that would allow me to build rhythms, adding one percussion sound after another. Ideally, it should be possible to connect it to external MIDI device for recording and playing back the recorded notes.This would go something like this: I set up a rhythm, say, 4/4, and I hear metronome sound that hints about the pace. I have a percussion voice selected on my synth, and whenever I press a key on the keyboard, that sound is recorded on my PC, registering it's position in the pattern. PC is repeatedly playing back the recorded sequence, so I can enrich the beat with more and more instruments. When the job is done, I'd save the created sequence in MID file, and use it later.
I have installed Rosegarden on my Ubuntu, and it might well be that it has such mode that does exactly what I'm looking for, but since Rosegarden doesn't seem to have official forum (only newslist, but I am now reluctant to sign me up to just another newslist), I wanted to check in this forum, maybe someone knows right away. At least, I have succeeded playing MID files via Rosegarden to my synth,and recording from synth to the Rosegarden interface, and save the result in MID file.
I just updated my distribution to 11.3 from 11.2. But now this problem occurs when I try to play an mp3. There was no problem before with 11.2.

Only certain mp3s have this problem. All gstreamer packages have been installed. What package is missing anyway?
I have a problem playing MIDI files on my system: I tried opening two MIDI files in Audacious, VLC, Aqualung and Rhythmbox, and Rhythmbox is the only one that will play them:
- Audacious crashes when clicking on the file in the playlist (immediately disappears)
- Aqualung doesn't add them to its playlist
- VLC produces an error msg saying it can't play MIDI
- Rhythmbox plays a MIDI file and immediately crashes at its end
I'm on Ubuntu Karmic 64 and have timidity installed.
I'm running Ubuntu 9.10 rt (realtime) kernel on a Dell box and trying to hook it up to a Yamaha P-80 keyboard. I'm not sure how to figure out what kind of MIDI cable I'm using. But I haven't been able to get the keyboard to play or write music on my Ubuntu or on Windows XP.
1.) How can I give you more information about my system?
2.) How can I test if it's working properly?
I have a few things working now, so all I need to know is a good way to record the music you play from Virtual Keyboard. I've tried Audacity to do this, but it never works correctly.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm not sure what the technical term for the thing that creates midi sounds. Is it the midi sequencer? or midi driver?Regardless, I'm unhappy with the tones ubuntu produces for its drum midis. Does any one know how to change which tones it uses? I use lilypond to write percussion music and it can be easily translated into a midi file. I like to do this so that I can hear how the music sounds in real life and many mistakes.Unfortunately the toms are painfully low and hard to distinguish.
View 2 Replies View RelatedAs an arranger of collegiate a cappella music, I often times need to listen to a song as I'm playing with a midi sequencer or some arranging software. On Ubuntu, since Gutsy, I've often run into the same problem from distribution to distribution:
Midi and audio won't work at the same time. If I have an audio file open on VLC or FireFox, I can't play Midi sequences on my arrangement. If I'm arranging and listening to Midi notes, I can't play music. Note that it's incredibly inconvenient to constantly close one so I can play the other to finish arrangements.
I'm under Ubuntu 8.04 LTS Hardy Heron using pulseaudio. I've got 2 soundcards : one internal AC97 7.1 without midi (card 0 in ALSA) and a PCI C-MEDIA 2.1 with OPL3 midi (card 3 in ALSA) I have sound in most ALSA or OSS applications with full 7.1 + 2.1 duplex. I have MIDI playback in any ALSA MIDI players (client 29:0 in ALSA).
I'm trying to run Final Doom for W95 on WINE with OSS driver. I have sound effects but no MIDI music. I tryed with padsp and aoss wrappers. I know I can use ALSA driver in wine or timidity, but I would rather use padsp + hardware MIDI if possible. How do I configure ALSA OSS emulation for MIDI playback and check that it's working ? I tryed playmidi but whatever I told it, it couldn't find any midi device.
I used Windows so far. I want to install the organ emulator Aeolus. To be able to use it, I installed Fedora 14 (dual boot). I learned, that you have to compile it for use. I therefore downloaded several packages (aeolus-0.8.4-1.fc13.ccrma.i686.rpm, aeolus-0.8.4-1.fc13.ccrma.i686.src.rpm and libraries) and followed installation docs, but it did not work. Neither the rpm command nor the make command using the source worked.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am using ubuntu 9.10 (kernel 2.6.31-9-rt) and an M-Audio Delta 1010 PCI sound card, and trying to get MIDI inputs and outputs to work on this sound card.I have Jack installed and working. MIDI signals from virtual keyboard or a MIDI player can be routed to fluidsynth, and fluidsynth's audio can be played back through the outputs of the delta 1010.I can use a MIDI sequencer (e.g. rosegarden or qtractor) to record MIDI from virtual keyboard, with jack handling the routing.
But, no matter how I configure the connections in jack, I can't get any signals from the "MIDI In" port on the sound card.Does anybody have some thoughts on how to fix this? Where is the disconnect between the delta 1010 and qtractor? I am concerned also that the "MIDI In" LED on the front panel of the Delta 1010 never blinks. There must be some basic ALSA configuration that needs to be done to activate and use these MIDI ports, or something. I've been trying to figure it out for days.
