Re: All midi instruments are out of tune....?

Thank you. I've set the default in Jack to 48kHz and that seems to have fixed it.

Truly appreciated, I thought I was going to go down a deep rabbit hole trying to find the answer.

Re: All midi instruments are out of tune....?

Hi, thank you. I think that's it. I just changed the default in Jack to 48kHz...and then opened up Calf Organ in Carla...and it was at the correct pitch. I then opened Ardour, and added a new midi track (This time the BBC orchestra VST)...and I could actually hear the pitch of the Calf Organ change ...

All midi instruments are out of tune....?

Hi all, Not sure which forum to post this in, so please move if needs be. I recently purchased a new laptop and installed Ubuntu Studio, I then purchased an M-Audio Axiom 61 midi controller, which was recognised straight away. The problem is, that no matter which midi instrument I assign it to, it's...

Re: What's everyone using to sequence drums?

@Michael Willis Thank you very much. I'll give that a go.

I do still prefer the layout and interface of Hydrogen, but something just isn't right with the synching. Everything feels ever so slightly out of time.

Re: What's everyone using to sequence drums?

I'm finding it difficult to actually pinpoint the issue at the moment mind you. Sometimes it's fine, other times it's not. I'd need to be able to give definite steps to recreate it.

Re: What's everyone using to sequence drums?

You could also drive H2 via midi, that way you won't depend on Jack Transport for synchronization. If Ardour packs a midi drum pattern editor that could be an option.. Hi, cheers. I have tried that in the past, and whilst it does have a midi editor, I find it quite awful to use, and much prefer the...

Re: What's everyone using to sequence drums?

Cheers, I'll give that a try. ...but, yeah, if it's not the Jack Master it simply doesn't stay in time - which is no problem, I'll make it the master, but then Ardour keeps "stealing" it bac if you move the playhead when playing back etc... if you route it through Ardour and Ardour tries t...

What's everyone using to sequence drums?

Hi all,

I've been using Hydrogen for years now, but it#s just getting increasingly buggy and playing ball less and less with Jack, so I'm looking for an alternative.

What are you all using. and can you integrate it with Jack (and subsequently Ardour)?

Re: Hyrdogen appears out of sync with Ardour (maybe a Jack issue?)

Hi. Thank you, I'll give that a try. I've read that the time signatures need to be the same as well...I'm unsure if they were or not, but will check that when I get home as well.
Cheers :)

Re: Hyrdogen appears out of sync with Ardour (maybe a Jack issue?)

Thank you very much. That did indeed show me, and I managed to sort that, then uninstall Hydrogen and reinstalled.

...but sadly, the sync issue remains. It's really weird.

Hyrdogen appears out of sync with Ardour (maybe a Jack issue?)

Hi all, I thought I was going mad, as I was moving my drums about and having them coming in at the wrong place, so I'd go over to Hydrogen and adjust them in the song, then press play - all would be fine. I'd then move the transport in Hydrogen and they'd be in the wrong place again. I also noticed ...

Pushing through a bus, then losing stereo...

Hi all, I've been watching various videos on youtube and reading about, and many sound engineers suggest pushing most instruments through a bus, then adding a small room reverb, which I've done and the results are quite good. ...but, I lose the ability to pan the individual instruments left/right (o...

Re: qmidiarp-->Yoshimi

To be honest, I love Ardour/Hydrogen and these have done me proud for a while. I didn't really want to start messing about with Wine if I could help it, preferring to use Linux native programs, but I'll give some of those a go. I might even have a stab at writing an ARP myself - the only part I thin...

Re: qmidiarp-->Yoshimi

Ok. I've come to the conclusion that qmidiarp is broken, sadly, Ive tried it on my old laptop running Ubuntu Studio 18.04 - and it works fine. I booted to a USB key on 20.04 and I have no sound (or signal perhaps, to any synths). All other synths work, and I all routing from controllers, through Ard...
