So, when I play back a music in #Audacity via the #ALSA interface of #Pipewire, it is roughly 3dB* more quiet than when I play back the same piece from my #DAW / #Ardour via the #Jack interface. When I play back the file in good old Clementine player via Jack, it's also as it should be.

Things like this make me nervous. Okay I exported my music from Ardour or #Mixbus in the current case, just wanna check the file again, so Audacity… and then it all of sudden sounds differently.

*: I have a digital audio console with peak-hold meters at the other end, so it's not just by ear.

#LinuxAudio journey report.
My weird system glitches appear to have vanished now that I have updated the NVIDIA drivers on my #LinuxMint to the newer, recommended version. And #BitwigStudio appears to launch more quickly.

It appears that when you update from Linux Mint 22.2 to 22.3 that the video drivers are not shifted at all - for all I know these have been out of date for months now (I've been having these weird pauses that long).

I think the record for most Valhalla Supermassive in one session goes to @polarity, who needs sends if you can put one on each channel :)

It's free, it sounds awesome and it works in with Yabridge/Wine by the way: https://valhalladsp.com/shop/reverb/valhalla-supermassive/

And here is a link to a great "beatmaking" video showing Bitwig 6 beta 12 with Polarity: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fJ0TE4dK_xM

I really need to spend more time with the stock plugins.

Valhalla Super Massive - Valhalla DSP

Make some space. ValhallaSupermassive has been designed from the ground up for MASSIVE delays and reverbs.   Get ready for luscious clouds of reverb, otherworldly delays, and swelling waves of feedback unlike any you’ve heard before. Supermassive has 22 out-of-this-world reverb/delay modes: Gemini: Fast attack, shorter decay, high echo density. Hydra: Fast-ish attack, shorter decay, low to high echo density (depending on the DENSITY control setting) Centaurus: Medium attack, longer decay, medium to high echo density (depending on the DENSITY control setting) Sagittarius: Slow attack, longer decay, high echo density Great Annihilator: Medium attack, very long decay, medium to high echo density (depending on the DENSITY control setting) Andromeda: Slowest attack, very long decay, very high echo density Lyra: Fast attack, shorter decay, low echo density Capricorn: Fast attack, shorter decay, medium echo density Large Magellanic Cloud: Long reverb, LOOOONG repeating echoes, long decay, medium attack Triangulum: Long reverb, VERY LONG repeating echoes, long decay, slow attack Cirrus Major: Low/medium echo density, strange repeating patterns, fast attack Cirrus Minor: Low echo density, strange repeating patterns, fast attack, smaller than Cirrus Major Cassiopeia: Initially low echo density that quickly builds to long and lush reverbs, mysterious repeating patterns, fast attack Orion: the much bigger version of Cassiopeia. Low echo density that can build to enormous reverbs, fast attack, strange resonances and repeating patterns. Aquarius: a dedicated EchoVerb algorithm, with a strong audible echo/delay that can morph into a lush reverb with higher DENSITY settings Pisces: the bigger sibling of Aquarius. EchoVerb, with even denser and lusher reverbs on tap than Aquarius. Scorpio: Fast attack, shorter decay, high echo density, cross-channel feedback, and filtering in the feedback loop for more realistic reverb decay. Libra: Medium attack, long decay, very high echo density, lush balanced modulation, and filtering in the feedback loop for more realistic reverb decay. Leo: Very slow attack, super long decay, very high echo density, filtering in the feedback loop for more realistic reverb decay. Virgo: Fast attack, short decay, very low echo density, filtering in the feedback loop, great for complex echoes. Pleiades: Fast attack, smooth decay, high echo density, filtering in the feedback loop, great for realistic and transparent reverbs. Sirius (new in 5.0.0): Fast attack, smooth decay, low to very high echo density, filtered feedback, great for clear and clean reverbs. All Valhalla plugins are self-documenting, so you can rollover the controls for the tooltip. And it's free.  No strings attached.   Just download to blow your mind and your music to new levels of consciousness and experience. Update Notes: Version 5.0.0 for Mac (Intel/M1/M2/M3/M4/M5 native Mac builds – ready for Tahoe) and Windows available New Sirius reverb/echo mode Previous / next arrows for mode selection Valhalla Supermassive is the best free reverb in the universe. Make pointillistic echoes, lush reverbs, echo clusters, and all sorts of sounds in between.

@fritjof er det ikke @mosgaard man skal spørge om #linuxaudio nu om stunder? :)

Perhaps you would like to ask Markus Krause whether his fantastic #VST plugins will also be available for Linux.

Er der mon nogen pipewire-hajer i farvandet, der kan hjælpe mig med at få en opsætning der lader mig sende lyd til både ardour og et videoopkald, når ardour kører?

#linuxaudio #ardour #fedibrain

I couldn't resist. 🙈

€59/$69 is a good deal for such a well-programmed VST synthesizer with 1022 presets.

I think the quality is top notch, just like with #uhe. No extra installation software needed. Just install it and enter the license key when you start it up. That's how it should be!

I have a #Pipewire question: I wanted to use a couple of meters through Carla, when listening to music on the Gnome Music app, and it seems, that everytime I change my tune, Pipewire drops the connection from Music to Carla, and resets to the speaker instead.

Would it be possible to lock the connection between Music and Carla when both apps are open?

@mosgaard @ercanbrack Works perfectly with Wine & Yabridge. 👍

Markus Krause (#tone2) programs good VSTs that put little strain on the CPU. We would have to write to him and ask whether his plugins will soon be available for Linux.
