Hi Dave,

I would like to say that your articles are my favourite in Linux Journal.

I've got a question: In your article about the Linux Sampler Project, you have a screenshot showing your setup with a console sequencer. What is that sequencer? I am trying to get as much of my signal chain on the console as possible and for the life of me I cannot find a JACK-aware console sequencer!

Help please!

Thanks!

Hi Dave, I enjoyed reading your article about Linux arpeggiators, and my thanks for including hypercyclic! If you like hypercyclic though, you might perhaps be also interested in its new little chordgenerator cousin, tonespace 2.0. Now available for Linux and also freeware.

for more info, please see www.mucoder.net/tonespace

cheers

Dave,
Have always liked your music articles. Best of what I'm looking for in Linux audio production.

Do you have any inside info on the development of 64 Studio? It's my preferred distro for music, as I don't compile apps as a rule, and 64 studio seems to be the only mature music distro to include Qsampler "out of the box". But.....

What has happened to their dev? Check their milestones roadmap (:

Seems that the OEM involvment has "mummed" their community communication (3.0 12 months late, 4.0..is this a joke?):

boy, I hope the dev's are getting paid well (= at all) to keep quiet...

Hi Dave. I am a retired engineer ( and keyboard player) that recently got into Ubuntu Studio. I have been working through the setups of using realtime kernels and have had good success thus far. I am wondering if anyone has been able to run Band in a Box using JACK. I can't seem to find a way to do that and posts to other forums directly relating to JACK have not been answered. Any thought?

PS, Ardour 3 looks like a game changer for musicians using Linux.
