| Re: [PLUG] adventures in MIDI |
Floyd, Not to discourage anything you are doing but in my studio, I use Muse (http://muse-sequencer.org/) for MIDI and audio sequencing for around 15 years. That, even more than Ardour, would be the center of any major studio project I would take on at this point. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Keith C. Perry, MS E.E.

It took a bit of trial and error to truly understand the online documentation, but I was able to write a PoC that did an arpeggio. Two weeks forward, if that long, I am approaching a working prototype of a far-less-absentminded composition program written with GtkMM. From where I sit, GNU C++ is not what it was in 1992. Depending on how this works out, what I've learned about "talking to sequencers" and/or "practical GtkMM" could be material for at least a Lightning talk. ___________________________________________________________________________ Philadelphia Linux Users Group -- http://www.phillylinux.org Announcements - http://lists.phillylinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug-announce General Discussion -- http://lists.phillylinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug ___________________________________________________________________________ Philadelphia Linux Users Group -- http://www.phillylinux.org Announcements - http://lists.phillylinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug-announce General Discussion -- http://lists.phillylinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
