timlI have a desktop I plan to upgrade (fresh-inst) from Ubuntu 14.04 LTS to 16.04 LTS.  Are the KXStudio repos updated for Xenial?  Or are there any known gotchas or caveats I should be aware of?04:38

jimbo1qazinstalled from http://kxstudio.linuxaudio.org/Repositories since PPA didn't work (is xenial missing?)07:48

jimbo1qazI noticed that the deb files installed many old package sources (lucid, trusty, wily, etc.)07:48
jimbo1qazis that normal?07:49
jimbo1qazAlso, it seems like many of my Ubuntu Studio packages will be hard-replaced, using epoch numbers. Is overriding system packages really a good idea?07:49

falktxalex-EU: I'm working for the MOD team now. see moddevices.com15:46
alex-EUfalktx: ok, i'll have a look.15:49
alex-EUfalktx: looks interesting for those who use those sort of plugins.15:52
alex-EUfalktx: and good to hear you've got a stable gig.15:52
falktxit helps. had to move country though15:53

alex-EUfalktx: i'm about ready to build up the next part of the studio, with a lan, and multiple boxes.15:55
alex-EUfalktx: i added a post in the forum about jackass, but it's good you've told me you're working fulltime. I won't bother pursuing it, but try and find an alternative of some sort.15:57
alex-EUfalktx: i assume you won't have much time left for much else. :)15:58
falktxoh I'll reply there15:58
falktxyeah, my time is very limited now... :/15:59

JackWinterhey alex, a long time indeed!  how are things?16:56
alex-EUyep, good. You?16:57
JackWinterpretty good, but dead tired today.  still have to work another hour too :S17:03
JackWinterjust got mixes back from london for our last song, wanna hear?17:04
JackWinterand i managed to install komplete8 in wine...!  was some kind of stupid mount option ;)17:04
JackWinteralso found some evidence, that yes a process can by default not allocate more than 50% of ram in linux, so that would explain your 32gb wine issue17:06
falktxthat should be configurable though17:09
JackWinterfalktx: yes it is, but i've forgotten the knob name :)17:14
JackWinterdon't know if the subject interests alex-EU anymore though17:15
alex-EUJackWinter: yep i'll have a listen17:15
alex-EUJackWinter: You're right, the subject is old news, and i'm working to do this another way.17:16
JackWinteri hope you can play 24b wave, as i still haven't converted it: https://www.dropbox.com/s/zu8ktp24og0lg41/3%20La%20COCCINELLE%20FINAL%20MASTER%20VOX%20DOWN%20270416.wav?dl=017:17
alex-EUJackWinter: i'm setting up a LAN, and we'll let the apps run in their natural environments. I got jack net working today (finally), so i'm figuring out how to make that work all the time, and of course in a stable fashion.17:17
JackWinterwish you best of luck with it!17:18
JackWinterare you in windows or linux nowdays?17:18
alex-EUJackWinter: both.17:18
JackWinterbtw, did you try the reaper notation yet?17:18
alex-EUJackWinter: not yet, i've been quite busy with this.17:19
alex-EUJackWinter: It's early days yet, i'll wait until it matures a bit.17:19
alex-EUJackWinter: I'm defintely interested in native reaper though, i've been watching that regularly.17:20
alex-EUJackWinter: I'm going to save your file, and listen to it on the BIG SPEAKERS. :)17:20
JackWintercool, please let me know what you think and if there was some issues with the mix?17:22
alex-EUJackWinter: ok.17:24
alex-EUJackWinter: You might have a listen of these while you're here. :) https://alextone.bandcamp.com/17:27

alex-EUJackWinter: This is pretty cool. As a sax player i'm often critical of how it's handled, but you've done well. Not too wet.17:28
alex-EUJackWinter: Nice groove, almost like soft acid jazz.17:29
alex-EUJackWinter: Good job, i enjoyed that.17:31
*** pi03k has quit IRC17:31
*** wolftune has joined #kxstudio17:34
JackWinterwell i tracked it.  the guy who mixed it used to work with ravenscroft, and said that he was very particular with his sax sound, so this got the same treatment17:34
JackWinterthanks!17:35
alex-EUJackWinter: Yep, nice sound.17:35
JackWinteri googled ravenscroft to find out that he didn't get paid for the solo on baker street...  he did get a cheque for the going union rate, but the cheque bounced...  gotta suck you play one of the most iconic sax solos, and get nothing for it...17:36
JackWinterwhat a dirty business it is at times...17:37
alex-EUJackWinter: He won't be the last to get screwed over. (Been there done that.) I can empathise with him.17:37
alex-EUJackWinter: It's a dirty savage business, and i'm being diplomatic.. :)17:37
JackWinter;)17:37
*** wolftune has quit IRC17:41
JackWinterlistening to cat's cupboard, sounds really realistic..!17:42
JackWinteralso enjoy the tune, can nearly feel the spring/early summer and the small ones running around like crazy!17:43
JackWinteralex-EU: the strings sound superb!17:43
alex-EUJackWinter: yeah, i write like that. In the imagination, and no genre.17:44
*** olinuxx has quit IRC17:44
jima bounced check is essentially bad paper... he can get em17:44
*** gkm has joined #kxstudio17:44
alex-EUJackWinter: My dearly beloved sonic implant strings. They still leave a lot of the modern libs in the dust.17:44
alex-EUJackWinter: And in sample lib terms they're ancient.17:45
JackWinterjim: well was a long time ago, and the cheque was only for 27 GBP17:45
alex-EUjim: I learnt that early, fortunately.17:45
JackWinteralex-EU: i like the strings best of all the sounds, just listened to friday too17:46
alex-EUJackWinter: You'd think that any morally reasonable person would give the man extra from massive sales. Damn, i've given musos my take for the night because they were hungry, and struggling. Maybe that's why i live in a little house in the mountains, and no private jet.17:47
JackWinterand ravenscroft is dead too.17:47
alex-EUJackWinter: yep, i meant at the time, when the cash was rolling in.17:47
JackWinteralex-EU: yeah, that's exactly it.  you'll never get rich in money that way, only in your soul!17:48
alex-EUJackWinter: i can live with that.17:48
JackWinteralex-EU: wise man! ;)17:48
alex-EUJackWinter: The strings are the best part of that lib.17:49
alex-EUJackWinter: The rest is pretty good too, but i've double up on a few from other libs to try and capture the right texture, and switch things up from time to time.17:49
alex-EUJackWinter: I bought the first volume of Spitfire Mural symphonic strings last year. Everyone was raving about them, and the demos sounded ok. Waste of money, imho. They're so wet you need a swimsuit and a towel to right with them. Not good at all for modest orchestral work like mine.17:52
alex-EUright=write17:52
JackWinterhmm, yeah i suppose that can happen17:54
JackWinterimo best to keep samples dry and to add the fx yourself, but i guess not everyone swings that way17:54
alex-EUJackWinter: You're right, imho. That's why VSL was so popular. They recorded naturally, and left it to the user to shape it any way they wanted.17:55
JackWinterwell you can always add fx, removing it more or less impossible17:56
alex-EUJackWinter: They've been accused of recording completely dry, but it's not true. The sound's natural. The whiners are used to everything saturated, and baked into the samples.17:56
JackWinterwe i guess classical instruments will always have at least some room sound, hopefully an awesome sounding room at that17:58
alex-EUJackWinter: it's idiocy, imho, but hey, if they're silly enough to pay for them...17:58
JackWinteryeah, too bad that you had a silly day too!  no money back?17:58
alex-EUJackWinter: Nope, a lesson learned.17:59
alex-EUJackWinter: First lib i invested in in some years, and it's basically crap.17:59
alex-EU:)17:59
JackWinteryeah...  same with many plugins...  i'm so sick and tired of buying plugins on a lark, then to find out that i'm not really liking them, or basically already something similar18:00
alex-EUJackWinter: This is why i want a LAN setup. I still have a shedload of gig files. I can run them on linux with linuxsampler just fine.18:00
JackWinterthe only thing i've bought in the last few years that i really like and use is u-he's satin18:01
alex-EUJackWinter: I just need to get them all talking to each other. :)18:01
alex-EUJackWinter: You're the second person who's mentioned U-He positively. I might have a look soon.18:01
JackWinteralex-EU: have a look at fons' n2j-bridge too, don't know if that builds for windows though18:02
alex-EUJackWinter: ok, i'll have a look.18:03
JackWintersupposedly they have linux beta plugs since 2014 or so.  satin is a basically a tape emulation and i use it a lot.  just seems to make everything sound better, the delay is also very cool18:03
alex-EUJackWinter: ok, taking notes.18:04
JackWinteri think i'll buy waves diamond or platinum too, next time they have a sale and have a reasonable price for it.  since it's no longer dongled is suppose i could live with it18:05
alex-EUJackWinter: right.18:05
alex-EUJackWinter: Any predictions for reaper native linux? :)18:05
*** olinuxx has joined #kxstudio18:05
*** olinuxx has joined #kxstudio18:05
JackWinterit's still a lot of money and i know many people hate waves, but personally i find the plugins mostly very good18:05
JackWinternot really :)  but justin said another build would come out after 5.20 is out.  for rpi2/3 too..!18:06
alex-EUJackWinter: i saw that, hence the question.18:07
alex-EU:)18:07
JackWinterso far it's just a teaser, i built it and you can do some stuff, but not really work with it18:07
alex-EUJackWinter: I can't get it to run, but you're ahead of me on that stuff.18:07
JackWinterwould be good with a native reaper, but chances are i'll keep using it in wine, atleast until there is some kind of windows vsts bridge included in it18:08
alex-EUJackWinter: Which is probably just as well, or i'd lose lots of time tinkering with that instead of writing music.18:08
JackWinteryeah, don't bother with it at the moment.  let's see if he has really put some work into it18:08
alex-EUJackWinter: right.18:08
alex-EUJackWinter: ok.18:08
JackWinteri mean after all, i just have 2-3 small buglets in reaper/wine that don't really bother me.  the other side are xruns from using the transport, but since i can record/playback for hours on low latency it's not really a real life issue18:10
alex-EUJackWinter: yep.18:11
JackWinterla coccinelle was tracked/edited on reaper/wine and mixed on protools/osx18:11
alex-EUJackWinter: right.18:11
JackWinterso i'm already good, and don't have to fsck around all that much with software, which is a good thing18:12
JackWinterat least like that you can get some real work done...18:12
alex-EUJackWinter: yes, true.18:14
