WTF. MuseScore website doesn't have a simple install link for anything besides AppImage. "Community Packages" points you to this PPA: https://launchpad.net/~mscore-ubuntu/+archive/ubuntu/mscore-stable but it's not up to date, it's 2.0.3 (a year old). If you're using an Ubuntu 16.04 distro ...

Confusing names. jackd is the original "V1" written in C language, jackdbus "V2" (with a 1.9.xx version number) is a drop-in replacement written from the ground up in C++ (EDIT: I'm wrong, it's something else). They're mostly compatible but not quite 100%. If you do a fresh KXStu...

Is the Novelli in one of Mason's videos a relative of yours? I loved the sound of his Tribus pedal, shame it's discontinued, hopefully his new stuff picks up where it left off, great tone! Yep, Pete's my dad. Mason's thinking about a Tribus 2.0. A lot of people like it but say it's too big. He coul...

Oh yeah, I heard a little UB40 and Bob Marley growing up but I've only started getting into reggae in the last year or so actually.

Neat. I just use a 1W tube amp in the studio. It's a Firefly - 12AU7 power tube, 12AX7 preamp, and a switchable 12AX7 overdrive. Those tubes are easy to get and cheap enough. But it'll be nice to have other options for gigs. Beyond the inclusion of Nutube, the pre-amp circuit in the MV50 features a ...

Almost all of the above. :D Fleetwood Mac all the time. Lots of country, country-rock, folk-rock... Emmlou Harris, Dolly Parton, Bonnie Raitt, Peter Paul & Mary, Simon & Garfunkel, Johnny Cash, Merle Haggard. At one point Steve Earle was all over the radio, especially Copperhead Road 8). I d...

Too bad it's not open-source, that would enable someone to get it running. Have you tried QMidiArp? I remember getting it to work a few years ago. Might have some timing/performance issues. Definitely more complicated than looping an audio/midi pattern in my DAW. I guess Linux arpeggiators need some...

Not just any jack transport, only Qtractor. All you have to do is enable "Play past end" and hit Play. I couldn't find much info on Arpage at all, just a few videos and this article from 2010 - http://www.linuxjournal.com/content/linux-arpeggiators-part-2 Contrary to that article, Klick do...

What is broken in the homepage? Why hasn't anyone told me about it before? How am I suppose to fix something I didn't realize it was broken? Maybe he's referring to "NOTE: Parts of this website are currently being rewritten, some links might not work at the moment." I recommend you delete...

Rather go with a Debian based distro, Ubuntu / Mint is probably the easiest and most developed environments. Perhaps consider something like AVLinux because all the configuration hard work has already been done for you, and it's Debian based. Audio can be made to work on other Linux environments bu...

Its gotten improvements (especially after 3.x) but it is still based around a traditional workflow, much like if you were working with a tape machine, analog mixing desk, hardware compressors, eqs etc. Its a complex task for sure, but its a tradeoff between complexity and flexibility, a simpler pro...

Anyway, it's not good. According to many responses from users related to problems of LSP Plugins UI with JUCE-based hosts, Reaper, Renoise and Bitwig Studio, I think GTK2 is a dead end. I'll concentrate on development of toolkit. I have already some sort of progress: Cool. I don't know if the contr...

I like Geany (lightweight IDE) and Vim too. If JUCE requires a huge IDE to compile programs, it sounds like an overly demanding framework. I try to keep tools & dependencies to a minimum. Good engineering practice. CMake is the most useful tool for cross-platform C/C++ development IMHO. But I di...

And yeah, it looks like the archaudio forums already do what we need: http://archaudio.org/forums/ Just nobody knows about them, and it's a nice desert... ...and 6 months later, it's dead. I think LM is a better forum for this anyway. We have people who are more experienced with audio config & ...

Yes.
