Re: Favicon poll!

Thanks for taking the lead and making this poll! Hard to choose just three I like. Also, I just wanted to point something out that's going to sound nit-picky, but I'm just trying to provide some technical/design perspective. Favicons at small resolutions are generally edited by hand after resizing (...

Re: Linux musicians favicon

bhilmers 's version has a very bad font work and annoying gradient in the center. Al the elements in my favicon are directly from the current board theme. The gradient comes from the banner (https://www.linuxmusicians.com/styles/prosilver/theme/images/bg_header.gif) and the typeface (Trebuchet MS) ...

Re: Who pays for what ?

Do you financially support Ardour via a monthly payment ? No. I've only used Ardour once in, 2011. I think it's a solid DAW, just not the features or workflow I prefer. Do you support any other FLOSS project with regular payments ? Did you donate money to any open-source developers in 2016 ? If so,...

Re: Cheating

It is an old joke, but seems timeless since it is still relevant today. I play live electronic music several times a year and the topic of "what's cheating?" comes up much too often within my circle of collaborators.

Re: lexicon alpha usb perfect compatibility with gnu/linux

I bought a Lexicon Alpha last week and was happy to see it work out of the box. Seems to be a nice, inexpensive unit for simple recording. Haven't had a chance to give a critical ear to the preamp, but it is surely an improvement over my M-Audio Mobile Pre, blech.

Re: NBO website future

Sure, I would be glad to host the NBO site. What kind of bandwidth was it using and can you reasonably project it's future usage over the next year? I can probably handle it. I already seed the torrents.

Invested parties should PM me to work out the details.

Re: Ubuntu Studio's reputation

I think Ubuntu Studio is great for a certain slice of Linux users. I come from a multi-media background and U:Studio saves me a lot of time on a fresh install. I can see how audio-centric users might be turned off of U:Studio's "inadequacy" out of the box, but let's face it, Linux Audio is...

Re: [ANN] Vee One Suite 0.7.5 - The Tenth beta is out!

Thanks for the cool tools. In drumkv1 is there any way to bypass the DCA and allow long samples to play their entire length?

Re: no budget orchestra torrent

After hearing how great these samples sound I decided to set up Transmission on my server to host the nbo torrent, but since I don't know the first thing about torrents I have no idea if it's working as expected. Any suggestions on how I can improve the visibility? Also, I'm down to host other Linux...

Re: Wavosaur

I actually liked OcenAudio 2... I still have high hopes for the future of OcenAudio. They seem to be starting on the right foot. Lately I feel Audacity's nightly builds branch is worth the occasional breakage because of all the new features. They are really coming along. Slow, but getting there. To...
