How do you store and/or organize your audio cables? in c/[email protected]
[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I roll them up, tie them around themselves and put them in a box.

When the need arises I spend a few minutes swearing profusely while looking for, then untangling, the one I'm after.

Anyone using hardware synths with linux DAW? in c/[email protected]
[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Hi,

I watched that video a few days back and drowned in nostalgia, though I was an Amiga chap rather than an ST one.

Has the SH-32 arrived yet?

I've had a look at Chapter 8 of the manual, Using the SH-32 with External MIDI Devices, the MIDI Implementation sheet^1^ and the Sound On Sound review: https://www.soundonsound.com/reviews/roland-sh32

Per the Sound On Sound review:

Real-Time Control Over MIDI

The SH32 transmits much of its control panel information in real time, and you can select whether it does so using MIDI continuous controllers or SysEx messages. You can even allocate an ID to the unit so that, if you have multiple SH32s, you can control each of them separately. This is excellent, and allows you to record knob twiddles and other changes in real time, and then recreate the performances using an external sequencer.

Given the amount of information that can be sent from/received by the SH-32 it could take a lot of setting up in the DAW but there doesn't seem to be much that the DAW couldn't control.

^1^ They're both available on the Roland website: https://www.roland.com/uk/support/by_product/sh-32/owners_manuals/

Do you know what you were doing at 15.02 on Saturday 25th February 2006?

Personally, I was recording take 34 of a banjo solo.

I've a backup on my current laptop of the hard drive from the laptop I was using at the time, including a few Cubase projects.

I ditched Cubase for Reaper in 2008 so can't open the projects but the raw audio files are in the project folders.

This is a re-working of a song called Debauchery, using the original recordings of vocals, acoustic bass, 12-string and, yes, banjo, though not they're not all the same takes I used in the 2006 version.

The drums/percussion and synth parts are new.

It's not finished yet and, as I've mixed it on headphones, it probably sounds ropey but I'm having fun.

This is the original 2006 version: https://pmudd.com/debaucherysc

The Grin Reaper (waveform.social)
 

Hi,

I'm Dave.

According to my registration date on the Reaper forums I've been using Reaper since 2008, initially running in Windows, running in assorted Linux distros for the last decade or so.

The pun in this post's title is disgracefully clunky but, despite the frustrations and its idiosyncrasies, Reaper has become something of a friend.

It definitely makes me grin, especially when I'm reminded of the nonsense that people who use other DAWs have to deal with.
