• My dual boot with windows 11 won't boot past intro screen or even into bios after failed attempt to fix frequent Kerbal panic.

  For my needs, all I needed was Hydrogen. Which is indeed, a very simple need... Source: 12 months ago

• My "drum kit" for the past couple weeks

  I haven't tried EZ Drummer yet, but I might. I'm a computer nerd, so I've put together a laptop with Ubuntu Studio, and I'm in the process of getting Jack configured to reduce the Midi latency. I want to have ultimate control over everything, and may eventually write some custom plug-ins once I have it all set up to work with something like Ardour or Hydrogen. (Open-source FTW.).

• Any resources on creating tracker music and sampling for tracker music?

  Some trackers come with their own sample packs, like the open source Hydrogen drum machine, or commercial Renoise tracker, so you can play around with those. Source: over 1 year ago

• Raycasted.... Thing w/ Original Audio | GLSL

  The code for this can be found here on shadertoy! The audio was made with an Ibanez bass, Guitarix, Hydrogen Drums, ZynaddSubFX and Ardour! Source: over 2 years ago

• [Question] What does your digital studio look like?

  I also play with Synths as a part of my guitar tracks, so I use the TAL-U-No-LX Juno emulator, and Vital; I have an Akai MPK Mini MkII. Drums provided by Hydrogen. Source: over 2 years ago

• need help finding these wav files.

  The bottom of the page says it's on The Mod Archive. What format is the song in? If it's still in its original modular format (as opposed to rendered to MP3 or WAV) you should be able to open it in OpenMPT and save the samples from there. Source: 11 months ago

• wind ohs eggs pee

  The software that is used to make the music is (likely) OpenMPT, which is a software I use quite often for making Tracker Music. Tracker music is a really fun form of music software to work with if you don't know how music notes work but do know how computers work. If you want an example of how Tracker Music sounds, check out Dues Ex's title theme, which was composed entirely with a older tracker. Source: about 1 year ago

• Are there any DAWs with something similar to Audacity's "Audio Selection Sequencer 2" plugin?

  There is also a type of app that is more sophisticated than Audio Selection Sequencer2, but simpler than a typical DAW sequencer. The type of application that I'm thinking of is called a "Tracker". Music Trackers were very popular back in the '90's, but their popularity has declined considerably since DAWs became common on PCs. One of the few music trackers that still exists is OpenMPT https://openmpt.org/. Source: about 1 year ago

• does anyone know of a good daw that replicates the snes sound chips?

  When making mockups I typically use OpenMPT. With the 8-tap Sinc Resampler: Kaizer Window Filter at 72%(?) bandwidth. Didn't test it extensively for accuracy but it outputs a warm sound not unlike the SNES, bass becomes "plastic" in a similar fashion. For echo I just use the default Direct X Audio Effects Echo plugin but it's inaccurate. Another thing with OpenMPT is it has a decent sample editor so you can work... Source: over 1 year ago

• How did you get into microtonal?

  My music theory teacher mentioned that in the days before 12 equal that G# and Ab were not the same pitch. IIRC he said that G# was lower than Ab. That was enough to send me down the microtonal Alice in Wonderland rabbit hole once years later I got my hands on something that could let me explore tuning other than 12 equal - and that was a music tracker. This is one that survives to this day and now has native... Source: over 1 year ago
