i tried thishttp://www.mixxx.org/ thing, it looked like
spyware a bit and rendered with audio issues, i might get
tractor or something, i dont want to dj or anything live, i
just want to make a nice little mix of some tracks

you could spend a few days and make one in supercolider? l:
)

reaper is very good. if you want a fully functional
trial..

it was last time i tried it anyhows.

will check it out

yes i could program one myself, for the task im doing it
might be overkill, but you have reminded me i need to get
back into SC, ive got loads of spare monitos hanging around
so i will cobble together a pc for the dining room when i
have all my musical equipment and sit there and mess around

60 day evaluation

and its actually very cheap 45'ish quids.

vst and all that and very precise.

its worth a download just to get the plugins.

i have cubase somewhere havent used that for years
have renoise on this pc
i messed around with reaktor a decade ago that was sort of
fun but by the time you have read the manual it seems easier
to make something in supercollider

i'll have a look cheers

i think i might have seen someone doing real time automation
in reaper on a video

id go with cubase if you have it and its not a lite
version.

real time automation? you mean like fader moments and
stuff?


 

offline freqy on 2016-06-19 21:57 [#02497996]

it has rubber band automation for pots and faders and so
forth.

yes i have cubase, i stopped using it after a hard drive
faliure and lost loads of track ideas

i might use rewire and do the drums on a tracker style prog
or some variation, or do a different method

yes this guy had some sort of mixer hooked up to his pc and
he was doing loads of tweaking on his drums with faders and
stuff and recording the automation live, it seemed quite
good, i dont think id do it that way myself though

hd failures suck.

I wonder if SC can rewire?

max msp can, it has a rewire object.

Points: 30707 Status: Regular



i dont know if you can do it natively, you would have to
create your own custom class i imagine

someone was saying online cos rewire is proprietary, they
wont license it to open source projects liek supercollder,
so you would have to reverse engineer it some how

a licence thing. tusk..

i had a weird yet quite interesting problem the past couple
o days
I bought a laptop i5 thing. I tested it was faster than my
old quad.
it was ..with the power lead in. : /

but i noticed it was really slow at times and made the
screen glitchy when testing certain programs files..
anyway long story short ...I didnt know that with many
laptops if you disconnect the power lead. the frigging cpu
and gpu is throttled. ( i thought it was just a heat thing,
but nope)

down to 800mhz

800!!!! wt? ...even when I demanded power :

my new i5 was running at 800mhz without a warning i nearly
did an OS reinstall.

anyway...i found a program that can overide this called
''throttlestop.'

just a little thing to keep an eye out for there.

I never use laptops ...so this is probably well known.

Points: 30707 Status: Regular



ah, no i wasnt aware of that, but i never really do anything
processor intensive on laptops so thats probably why i never
noticed.

if i had glitches what you saw i would probably think the
cpu is running to hot and run prime 95 and stuff like that
to see how stable mi system is

I feel sorry for those that go on stage with their
presentation without a power lead and it goes pear
shaped...

I moved an overclocked pc once, it failed in its new
position. just a bit of extra heat maybe a couple of extra
degrees, It just about tipped the balance and pthhhh failed
a prime test.

Points: 30707 Status: Regular



yes i remember when overclocking you pentum 4 was all the
rage, generally made things more unstable if you weren't
very careful, now all my mates have all these water coolers
and things like that, i just stay about 5 years behind
current technology and have a massive zalman cpu fan. means
i cant play the latest games but its cheaper.

mi mate very kindly gave me a steam code for the new doom
game because it came with the 2 graphics cards he bought for
his new pc, it requires 50 gig of free space and I probably
wont be able to play it till the next decade

its like 4K tv id be surprised if anyone can actually tell
the difference between the resolution and current HD tv that
well, they are already planning for 8K its just to sell
people more consumer goods

like music keep making bigger storage mediums and filling it
up with music formats you have to have ears of a dolphin to
appreciate any difference

my mum still has a big ctr tv its funny when I go round
there, she has her digital box on zoom mode, so its kind of
looking at a tv show with a magnifier glass with Vaseline
smeared on the lens, she doesn't care really

my brother still has his red ctr tv from 1985 very retro

i was meaning to try mixxx. a few weeks back i was stuck
trying to sort out fonts were loading in Qt on linux but not
in Qt on OSX. some guy on the irc channel for the thing was
all "oh, jeez, my font routine takes a whole 800ms to start
up, it's creating a pixel buffer to test render a lower-case
Q to see if the GPU supports anti-aliasing." i said, "you
have fonts working on OSX; you're ahead of me." he said,
"here" and it was a url to mixxx's github; the part where it
loads fonts. i shamelessly copy/pasted the code, added some
teriyaki sauce, and then i had fonts working in OSX. it was
kind of him, so i figured maybe i should check out mixxx.
given that i was copying some of the code to the clipboards
i think it's open source, but if xlt says it's spyware then
i guess that was a close call there.

my mum is quite good like that actually. She has a nice fhd
lg tv.

I still have a CRT with a built in VHS player.
Pic is small but there it is.

also, Reaper is good for doing a quick mix, as mentioned
