holsteino/04:32
unicornjedioi oi04:32
unicornjediholstein do you have time to help a newbie like me?04:33
*** BitPuffin|osx has quit IRC04:33
holsteinunicornjedi: we'll see.. just ask, and if a volunteer can assist, im sure they will be happy to04:33
unicornjediokay, I want to produce some hip-hop beats. What applications do I need to have in my virtual studio?04:34
unicornjedii like lmms but it doesn't work with jack transport >:(04:34
holsteinkxstudio ships with most of the normal tools.. typical to the linux pro audio work flow04:34
holsteinwhy do you need jack transport?04:34
unicornjediwell I want to use hydrogen for the drum beats and it works well with my pads on my m-audio oxygen25 piano04:35
unicornjediI like ardour for mixing and arranging tracks04:35
holsteinsure.. you can always export, and use ardour, as you are saying04:35
holsteinrather than jack transport04:35
holsteinthough lmms should "just work".. i dont use it, so i cant say04:35
unicornjedibut it will impede with my work flow04:35
holsteinunicornjedi: sure, friend.. so, ask the maintainers why its not working as you want04:36
holsteinfolks also use it (it = lmms) in #opensourcemusicians04:36
unicornjediwe're off topic though04:36
holsteinit should "just work" with jack.. though, back when i tested it, i found it problematic04:36
holsteinunicornjedi: ?04:36
unicornjedii was wondering what applications should i have in my virtual studio04:37
holsteinunicornjedi: kxstudio ships with the main audio tools that are available to linux04:37
unicornjedi...04:37
holsteinunicornjedi: there are no "shoulds" really.. just tools that you may find do what you need04:37
unicornjediI'm talking about claudia04:37
holsteinsure.. im not specifically referring to claudia either.. though, it is handy04:38
holsteinhydrogen and lmms would have been on my list of suggestions..04:38
unicornjediwell I like the tools kxstudio comes with04:38
unicornjedibut I don't want clutter in my virtual studio room in cladui04:38
holsteinkxstudio has what main linux has available to it04:38
holsteinunicornjedi: its not like windows, where, you get "clutter" from installed applications04:39
unicornjediahhhhhhhhhhh04:39
unicornjediyou are misunderstanding me man04:39
holsteinone can always build something up more minimally if one wants04:39
holstein.g ubuntu mini iso04:39
theloniusholstein: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD04:39
LAbotTitle: Installation/MinimalCD - Community Help Wiki (at help.ubuntu.com)04:39
unicornjedi:|04:39
holsteinone could get a smaller ubuntu mini iso, and just install *only* the parts one wants.. so as not to have clutter04:39
unicornjedinooooooooooooo thats no what im talking about04:39
holsteinunicornjedi: just type, friend.. and explain. no need for faces, and "no"'s04:40
holsteini assure you, im trying to assist, and not interested in wasting either of our time.. what are you talking about, friend?04:40
unicornjediill be more specific. i'm looking for the applications already installed on kxstudio OS that will work well together. Also I want to have good work flow when making a beat with those programs in a claudia virtual studio room.04:42
holsteinunicornjedi: they are all working as well as they are intended to work together, "out of the box"04:42
holstein"looking for applications already installed on kxstudio OS that work well together".. the answer should be literally all of them04:43
unicornjedicool04:43
holsteinthe work flow you come up with will really be more catered to what *your* specific setup will be04:43
holsteinthere is no one way to make "hip hop beats" in linux04:43
holsteinhydrogen is really just a sequencer04:44
holsteinhip-hop, as you know, is a style, so, you will have sounds, samples, or synths that you trigger.. you can trigger these with *any* sequencer in linux04:44
holsteinyou can "make a beat" with many of the tools04:44
unicornjedii have other questions too04:45
holsteinunicornjedi: just ask, friend..04:45
unicornjedihow do you assign an instrument in hydrogen to a specific midi trigger.04:45
holsteinunicornjedi: i use jack to route whatever i want04:46
unicornjedii looked at the manual and I couldnt find the answer :(04:46
holsteinunicornjedi: i might, for example, just connect the midi connections out of hydrogen to the ins of whatever sounds etc04:46
holsteinunicornjedi: sure.. there really is no "linux" or "hydrogen" company making sure you know how to use it04:47
holsteinunicornjedi: but, its like *any* midi gear, really.. you'll just have a virtual connection, in jack, between hydrogen and whatever sound module you want to be using04:47
holsteinor, use anothher sequencer04:47
unicornjedii know how to do that. I mean When I hit 'Pad 1' on my keyboard I want it to play a certain instrument04:48
holsteini suggest.. dont just sit down, and try and make hip-hop beats.. or, get some work done.. i would spend a little time just getting to know the routing..04:48
unicornjediFor example, have you used lmms?04:48
holsteinunicornjedi: sure. and, i would just route "pad 1" in jack.. no need to use hydrogen.. though, you can04:48
holsteinunicornjedi: as i said before, i have used lmms years back.. yes.. but, i dont use it now04:48
unicornjediwait.... jack routes midi triggers? I thought it routes midi devices04:49
unicornjediimma turn on my kxstudio laptop test this myself. exciting!04:49
holsteinfor example. i got a korg nanopad the other day.. i plug it in, via USB.. start jack, and route the nanopad to yoshimi.. and triggered whatever sounds i wanted from there04:49
holsteinunicornjedi: jack routes most *any* software and hardware.. linux and jack friendly hardware and software04:50
*** damo22 has left #kxstudio04:50
holsteinthere is no company making sure you have a fancy manual. but, there is also just the one spec that most folks support.. so, for the most part, *everything* in linux is easily route-able like that04:51
unicornjediturning onm laptop04:51
unicornjediholstein, its on04:52
holsteinunicornjedi: whats on?04:52
unicornjedimy laptop. Im gonna check if jack can acutally route midi triggers\04:53
unicornjediI thought it just connects the devices04:53
holsteinunicornjedi: well, you dont have to "check".. you can just learn to route them04:53
holstein*i* get jack running, and route my midi devices to whatever software synths, or hydrogen.. or whatever else i need to trigger.. sooperlooper.. controls.. etc04:54
unicornjediokay I see oxygen 25 output in catia04:54
unicornjedinow what04:55
holsteinunicornjedi: i dont use catia.. but, the connection will be made by connecting the output of the device you want to the input of the software you want to control04:55
holstein.g catia kxstudio connections04:55
theloniusholstein: http://kxstudio.linuxaudio.org/Documentation:Manual:simple_claudia_studio04:55
LAbotTitle: KXStudio (at kxstudio.linuxaudio.org)04:55
unicornjedii know how to connect the device but what about the triggers to specific instuments?04:56
holsteinunicornjedi: you can map that via midi, on either side04:56
unicornjedilike C4 to instument 'snare'04:56
holsteinunicornjedi: correct.. you can address that many ways04:56
unicornjediill take a peek at that document you sent me. one sec04:57
holsteinmake the connection, see that its connected.. then, you can choose to remap, or just use it as is.. whatever you like04:57
unicornjedi..04:57
unicornjedii already read this manual before in its entirety04:58
holsteincool04:58
unicornjediits connecting the device04:58
holsteinjust ask, if you have any specific questions04:58
unicornjedinot specific midi triggers like the key 'C4'04:58
holsteinyou *connect* the device to the software you want to control04:58
holstein*then*, you can choose to remap, or whatever you like04:58
unicornjediokay how do i do that?04:58
holsteinunicornjedi: in what?04:58
*** spectromas has quit IRC04:59
holsteinyou are connecting some device to some software.. some external usb trigger pad to lmms?04:59
unicornjediokay I connected the midi device to an instrument called 'SBASS' in LMMS04:59
holsteinand?04:59
holsteinyou want "c4" to play some other note besides "c4" in lmms? correct?04:59
holsteinyou can transpose around.. or remap..04:59
unicornjedinow the instrument will play with all the piano keys. (ex. C4,D4,E4,F4)04:59
unicornjedii want the instrument to only activate on the key C405:00
unicornjedibtw the answer to your question: yes05:01
holsteinunicornjedi: sure, and i can think of several ways i may attack that issue.. all of which, may have side effects based on what else you are trying to do05:01
holsteinwhat are you trying to do?05:01
holsteinin the big picture..05:01
unicornjediokay heres my main issue which can be solved if what you are telling me is correct05:02
unicornjediin hydrogen, theres a drumkit that will play a different sound depending on which pad i strike05:02
holsteincorrect05:02
holsteinyou can map those.. in hydrogen05:02
holsteinthink of it like midi gear.. stand alone midi gear05:04
unicornjedithe order of the drums in the drumkit don't play like this. PAD 1 = INSTRUMENT 1    PAD 2 = INSTUMENT 205:04
holsteinif you plug a keyboard, via midi, into some other sound module.. you can map that05:04
unicornjedithe second instrument is connected to my 3rd pad for example05:04
holsteinunicornjedi: sure.. you can remap those to be as you please05:04
unicornjediokay let me open up hydrogen one sec05:04
unicornjedii only see hydrogen MIDI-in as the only input05:06
holsteinsure05:06
holsteinand you should be connnected to that, from the device05:06
holsteinthe usb connected midi trigger.. you already have that connected, correct?05:06
unicornjedialready connected05:07
holsteinanyways.. you are not changing the devices.. you just want to remap the sounds05:07
unicornjediyes05:07
unicornjediso I connected OXYGEN 25 to HYDROGEN MIDI-IN05:07
holsteinyou can also likely remap on the controller.. if you choose05:07
holsteinbut, you dont need to change the connections05:08
unicornjedireally? how do I do that05:08
holsteinqmidiroute is also an option05:08
unicornjediawesome let me open that\05:08
holsteinyou can put it, via software, in jack, in between the 205:08
unicornjedii never thought making music on the computer could be so technical lo;05:09
unicornjedilol05:09
holsteinsure.. but, there is no "linux" making sure its all "user friendly"05:09
holsteinits just a bunch of developer tools made to solve issues.. using jack as the backend05:09
unicornjediits not installed on my studio :(05:10
holsteinno doubt, there can be polish.. and you may prefer something "all in one" like the commercial renoise, etc05:10
holsteinunicornjedi: its?05:10
unicornjedii cant find qmidiroute on the studio. Ill go ahead and install it05:10
holsteinunicornjedi: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install qmidiroute05:11
unicornjedioh i was gonna be a noob and use synaptic lol05:11
holsteinits just one of many ways to address what you are talking about.. remapping the midi05:11
holsteinunicornjedi: its not really "noob", though.. is it? its just a different tool. use what you like..05:11
unicornjediyou're kkoool05:12
unicornjedioh... its a command-line tool?05:12
holsteinunicornjedi: i dont think it has a GUI05:13
unicornjedioh mannnn05:13
holsteinitll let you remap the controls.. but, there are many other ways05:13
unicornjediim not too comfortable with the command-line unfortunately05:13
holsteinunicornjedi: are you coming from windows?05:13
unicornjedino i've been using ubuntu for 4 years05:14
holsteinunicornjedi: that tool is from the ubuntu repos05:14
holsteinanyways.. its just one way..05:14
unicornjedii feel your judgement05:14
holsteinunicornjedi: i assure you, im not judging anything05:14
holsteinwhat i was going to suggest is, to just take your time05:15
holsteinget more comfortable with the software.. i assure you, i spend years learning.. and im still learning05:15
holsteini say, just use it "as-is", and take on the mapping when you get more comfortable05:15
unicornjediokay :(05:16
holsteinunicornjedi: this is what i found that looks exactly like what you are dealing with05:16
holsteinhttp://linuxmusicians.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=1009905:16
LAbotTitle: LinuxMusicians View topic - Midi Mapping in Hydrogen (at linuxmusicians.com)05:16
holsteinunicornjedi: folks in #opensourcemusicians route midi, and remap often, so, may have more suggestions05:16
holsteinunicornjedi: there are ways to deal with this in hardware without having to change the mapping in linux..05:16
unicornjedithx for finding this05:18
unicornjedioh man05:20
holsteinlol05:20
holsteinyeah.. its technical05:20
unicornjeditoo much stuff too learn. I thought I had a good grasp on this05:20
holsteinim sure you can handle it, though05:20
holsteinyou can save these configs, and back them up.. etc05:20
holsteinor, ask others how they deal with it..05:20
unicornjediye ill be in this irc more. but usually no ones here05:21
holsteinunicornjedi: sure. the other channel i mentioned a few times is more active05:21
holstein#opensourcemusicians05:21
unicornjedithx m805:22
unicornjediim gonna play around with the software some more05:23
unicornjediill hit you up soon if i have any more questions05:23
holsteinsure.. cheers..05:23
unicornjediholstein, what sequencer do you use?05:27
holsteinunicornjedi: i almost exclusively use ardour/mixbus.. i only test sequencers, etc..05:29
holsteinunicornjedi: qtractor is the popular one..05:29
holsteinand, it can be a DAW, as well..05:30
unicornjedii seee05:34

damo22i havent actually tried it10:24
falktxno, they should work if you have an lv2 host there10:25
falktxcarla, ardour and mixbus work cross-platform on those10:25
damo22cool!10:26
damo22falktx: windows build is broken now: ../../dpf/distrho/src/DistrhoPluginJack.cpp:30:23: fatal error: jack/jack.h: No such file or directory10:31
falktxnot broken, you just don't have a proper pkg-config tool for win3210:32
falktxit's finding your linux one10:32
falktxI'd make an empty pkg-config script that allows "exit 1"10:33
falktxthen make it part of $PATH for win32 builds, that way jack, liblo etc won't be found10:33
falktxerrrm, I'd make an empty pkg-config script that has just "exit 1"10:34
damo22#include "jack/jack.h"10:38
damo22but there is no jack directory in distrho/src10:38
falktxok let me explain again10:47
falktxyou do not want the jack standalone if you build for osx or mac10:47
falktx*osx or windows10:47
damo22oh shit i forgot make WIN32=true10:47
falktxdpf checks the jack libs using pkg-config10:47
damo22:P10:47
damo22its working now10:48
falktxit's not about win32, you can have jack standalones there10:48
falktxbut pkg-config needs to return the correct values when cross-compiling10:48
