Re: Active projects?

Adding https://postmarketos.org/ postmarketOS (pmOS), is a touch-optimized, pre-configured Alpine Linux that can be installed on smartphones and other mobile devices. The project is at very early stages of development and is not usable for most people yet. postmarketOS is developed in the spirit of ...

Re: Fiwe - wireless audio effects

Hello Fiwe, Hello! Yeah the guitarix thing is probably the most natural but then one must be careful when zooming to not accidently change knobs. It's testeable right now by setting both modifiers (zoom and knob) to None. Yes, that's it! Very comfortable. I did a full tweaking session without puttin...

Re: Fiwe - wireless audio effects

Small update: I have actually made it a preference of the "gear icon" menu to use the MouseWheel with a Control/Shift/Alt/None keypress. Good idea. I tested a bit and am still not sure what would make the more sense (I mean, not only for me but for the average guitar player user). Ctrl+Wh...

Re: Fiwe - wireless audio effects

Before sending you on an errand, what I could do is maybe install the MOD Desktop application, see how they do things - this is probably the closest project with a mature UI. I'll be back to you on this one... Actually scrap that: the mod desktop application is still in experimental status and has ...

Re: Fiwe - wireless audio effects

Hello Fiwe, OK, the audio mystery is solved: it doesn't like jack1. Switching to jack2 and all is good, baxandall works (I cannot reproduce the crash) - I guess the case can be closed ;-) Mousewheel over a knob only changes its value if you have the Shift key pressed. The Shift keypress detection wa...

Re: Fiwe - wireless audio effects

OK, time again for testing: - You may double-click on the scene to automatically toggle between fully zoomed in/out mode. This may be quicker than the mousewheel... That works, but double clicking to zoom out then back in doesn't seem to go back to where it was before. It seems to get offset by a go...

Re: Fiwe - wireless audio effects

One reason why the sound you get from Fiwe sounds slightly different from what you'd get from Guitarix is that its Cabinet effect is not properly implemented in Fiwe yet. It uses a default cabinet impulse response instead of the specific 1x15, 4x12 etc. I'll get to it at some stage, or earlier if y...

Re: Fiwe - wireless audio effects

Hi Fiwe, I re-tried the desktop version last week, and it indeed it works pretty well now: a few more xruns than Guitarix, but it produces sound (tested with jack) and the GUI is usable already. So it looks like you've got the GUI separation sorted out - Good job :-) Diving in, I liked how you picke...

+1 for Renoise. Not open source, but way faster than the monster DAWS once you master the keyboard.

Confirmed: it installs and opens up here as well. No audio interface detected (I tried also with my focusrite 2i2, just in case).

Re: some new GxPlugins

guitarix have as well a description field in the gxplugin API. Unfortunately I'm most of the time to lazy to fill it up. Even fill the description fields for the plugs for the MOD, is a bit of a pain for me. :? In guitarix description is shown as tooltip text when you hover the mouse over a plug in...

Re: some new GxPlugins

That's a pedal from Devi Ever, she build a lot of extreme Pedals and published here schematics as well, very nice, indeed. Nice job indeed ;-) This brings to mind a feature request: the number of effects starts to be significant (in particular for the fuzzes) and it would be very useful to have a d...

Re: Conky (or system monitors)?

Conky has been part of my setup for a good 10+ years (I run it on top of Fluxbox), and I don't remember having any particular issue for audio production, nothing like xruns, etc... So I'd say go for it. But it highly depends on how you configure your monitors. Since it can run pretty much any back e...
