Anyway back to my Macbook Pro, I just used QJackctl and then made a couple Faust programs using the faust2jaqt compiler. Jack seems to run OK for a little while and then it goes off a cliff with XRUNs and glitches. This is just running a simple delay program. The CPU meter (I think I have a 4-core ...

Ciao e benvenuto!

Haha! So, come on: show us the source code for Ubuntu Studio or any of these OSes that are also being sold! As other have pointed out, it is easy to get the Source Code either through Launchapd or apt. For example, here how to get the Kernel source code: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/SourceCode An...

I think that the use of a particular paradigm with a particular set of capabilities is useful when those capabilities are particularly compelling for the problem at hand. Forcing a paradigm that does not fit the data and the problem is not wise. I am not familiar with the project you mention, but I ...

Maybe mixing and mastering? Not to do all the job, but to automatize all the most tedious tasks. Like: "AI, please set the project up when I brew my tea, then I will be back tacking care of the details". It would also be cool to "describe" to a plugin what you are after, like: &q...

Hey guys! Maybe not exactly music, for now, but definitely Linux and definitely open source. Some time ago I started publishing articles on my Blog about modelling Acoustics with Open Source software. I haven't been very active for a long time there. Then I decided to move my Blog from Worpress to G...

That's interesting. If you take a look at how, for example, the "bandpass" effects unit works, you will see that it calculates a discretized variation of the differential equations (difference equations) for an N-th order RC circuit. Looks like you use the finite difference method (or a va...

Thanks for all the suggestion! I will report back as soon as I read some of that stuff, although I'm open to more suggestions! My Bachelor dissertation contain a basic model of electric guitar. It shows how strings and pickups work. Not a lot of very practical stuff, but maybe some interesting thin...

Tons of great stuff here: http://www.valvewizard.co.uk +1. Great website. My go-to place when I was designing valve effects. I remember tons of great pages I used to refer to when I was into designing analog effects, but I lost the links. I have tried to recover them below, but I am not sure they a...

I was assuming that the backend arguments compensate for hardware latency. Ah yeah that's it. That's what I do too. However, there is not guarantee that ADC a DAC latency are the same, so it might be any combination that gives you 61 as a sum. I though you managed to figure out exactly what your de...

There's one period of input buffer and two periods of output buffer. In async mode there's an extra period on the output which, according to falkTX, allows buffers from misbehaving apps to be dumped. Ah yeah, the async thing. Got me confused when I was noob(er). Here the thread: https://linuxmusici...

My soundcard has 30 samples of latency on the input and 30 samples of latency on the output. That's interesting. How did you figure that out? In the past I could conclude how many samples of mismatch different channels have, but I couldn't be sure of the input and output latency. By the way, this u...

Again, just for the benefits of other readers (not attempting any conversion here). When I want to simulate a real system, I care about actual time, not samples, since the former is a real-world concept, the latter is an artifact of the simulation. However, I saw lots of Faust examples that were &qu...

After all, when we need to do mission critical DSP, we do not use computers at all but only dedicated chips. As far as DSP goes, audio is actually pretty relaxed in terms of requirements. I have worked with DSP systems that were allowed a worst case scenario latency of 20 microseconds, for example....

You see, Faust is a research project from a university. I doubt you'd see much use of it outside of the academic world (aside from Guitarix - I'm aware of the fact that it uses Faust extensively). There is some stuff, including some Android audio apps: https://faust.grame.fr/community/made-with-fau...
