Good enough to put on my channel:
https://youtu.be/oDJ69MT1AzUMeditation, from Thais by Massenet.
I used a generic synth that I had a small part in designing, my own sound design to make the piano and violin instruments, and lots of technical observation of virtuoso performances to convert this into my own performance. I used my existing 'mastering' workflow.
I didn't use AI. I didn't use samples.

@[email protected] And I've got - more... If you go to linux.org and tap on the Mint forum, someone's - kinda new - there... Maybe this will give you a hint: I sincerely appologize for the long read coming up (as our attention span collectively shortens into a #CokeMentosMoment - (Reader Discretion Advised):... So this is literally my very first time in #penguin territory after 28 years on a platform of empty promises , uh, #Redmond , anyone?I have to first describe my somewhat unique situation before I can go into the specs of how I got here. As per the situation, I'm totally blind since birth, so the most important piece of software is actually a piece of 'critical spyware' in the sense that it reads the code from various objects to 'draw' my desktop, then speak the contents in focus to me via speech. That's what a #ScreenReader does. In the Windows world, this would have been either #Narrator , #JawsForWindows , or #NVDA from #NVAccess . On Windows since 2006 I've proudly used NVDA to traverse the increasingly evil Microsoft (now hardened) interface. I'm more of a pro-sumer than consumer, so on Windows I used #reaper the digital audio workstation alongside an absolute beast of a freeware+open-source software synthesizer called #SurgeXT from the #SurgeSynthTeam ! And per proper hardware control I got the M-Audio Oxygen 61 MKV MIDI controller last Christmas (No, not the Wham song) to play DAW hosts live in realtime. Per audio editing, #GoldWave was always my main squeeze - from the stupid little edits to extreme audio handling sessions (my favorite audio passion of late (say, the past 4 or so years) is impulse response recording). On a Dell Latitude 5500 acquired about 3 years ago from my brother's friend, it's handled everything I can throw at it. It initially came with 8 gb of RAM, but since updated to 32 gb to future-proof looking forward. I had to retire the battery because when I first got the Latitude, the touch pad + a part of the keyboard were swollen. So I've been on AC power per the past 3 years. Now to the nightmare scenario which I quietly saw coming... I should preface this by saying I Am One of Those that Does Want to See what's happening under the hood, so just prior to Wednesday, February 25th, just 3 days shy of #OperationEpicFury , I had an aggressively tweaked Windows session (complete with only a local profile on Windows 11 Professional) and a heap of registry files + batch+command+PowerShell scripts to totally de-damn the junk, block telemetry addresses+ports, unhide all 177 'hidden' UltimatePerformance power plan settings; Even a customized PS1 prompt with my user name@host name; date;time: Then my command input followed by the output on the next line. Had everything all set and ready to fly. But, as is standard practice in the Windows world, I shut down just before going to bed (almost wish I hadn't...), because:... Thursday, February 26th, - After powering the Dell just to check EMail, I got an awkward message on my screen: "No boot device detected" I just 'quiet'ly 'splash'ed it off, knowing the switch was nigh. Next week, around Friday March 6th, another friend of my brother introduces me to Linux Mint, but not a fully installed copy. It was a 'live' image that I somehow could not install a full copy of Mint to my SSD (quintessentially stateless computing at its peak). I somehow survived with that for 9 days till a bad #Florida #Thunderstorm took my power away! Now that Mint was gone, it twas time to see the evil 'snap philosophy' of 'humanity towards others'. While Ubuntu Noble Numbat was kinda cool, #Orca the #ScreenReader had a very difficult time with it, considering the Wayland experience + non-native snap apps throughout the interface! Twas about 3 weeks ago I'd finally had enough... I remembered people talking about the no-nonsense nature of the Mate desktop, so off to #Gemini I go to talk; He helped me prepare a 16-gb GigaStone USB flash drive - to go from being 'inhumane towards others' to 'from freedom came elegance' (complete with #Wilma (Mint 22 LTS)! He (Gemini) directed me as to how to fully format and nuke the Ubuntu image once and for all! Then, burn the Mint+Mate image to the GigaStone! The #GigaStone is now officially a - #FlintStone ! And - after the successful installation of Linux Mint + Mate with 0 sighted assistance (which is what the modern world silently endorseth), all is well - and - yall just gotta new penguin in your corner! -

A little refinement of my cover for In The Night (Pet Shop Boys / Arthur Baker). As with writing, revisiting music after a break is the best way for me to spot problems more objectively.
Did I mention how I loathe finding the rhythm for offbeat cowbells? It's good when it's done. This isn't done.
A couple of instruments are not Surge; I added Emulator II to the strings, and added the free "DPinga congas" plugin.

This is kind of dumb shit, layers of presets on surge xt by inigo kennedy, with 3 of those being with some grain distortion plugin next to it. But it sounds nice. Only peak limiter on master channel.

A few weeks ago I found a bag with old #cassette tapes and discovered recordings from the early #90s mostly myself endlessly jamming on the #guitar. One riff was not even terrible, so I sampled it and made a track out of it in @ardour , with #geonkick , #surgext and a ton of other #FOSS plugins, all to participate in the @libremusicchallenge
Hope you enjoy it, not sure my past self would have approved...

After dealing with #heart issues (#arrhythmia) recently, I translated that experience into a track.
Built on #Librazik with #Ardour using #SurgeXT, #Zebralette, a #Microfreak and a #Waldorf #Blofeld.
The ending features my own heartbeat, converted from #Garmin data into audio using a Python script.
After two surgeries, my heart has been beating normally again for three weeks now 🤞

I lost an hour to doing this, and I believe it's an hour well-spent.
The rhythm of the 1st Violins section is much improved with these variations of articulations. I think a sample library would struggle with these combinations.
I like that I can do this with free software, with sounds I designed from first principles.

The Jealousy project - published
It'll never be perfect, so I'm pushing the button, along with a bit of animation.

[Edit: YT seems to have mis-encoded the start, which should be a blank screen and gradual fade-in, but instead, it copied a few random seconds from further in. Oh well.]

Project Jealousy: I'm nearing the end of this project.
This morning, I honed the character of the violin. There are about 60+ parameters in the violin response. For simplicity, there's a single macro control +/- for it.
This instrument goes forward for the 1.4 release of Surge XT, along with its 'section' variant.
I struggled to get something close enough to a conga set in the time I had, so I imported a sample. There's no shame in that.

I've been playing around with learning electronic #music stuff lately. I've got an #AKAI LPD8 and LPK25 for MIDI controls, and have been messing with #samplv1, #SurgeXT, and #Ardour on #Linux. Also been checking out a lot of theory and instructional videos.
I'm nowhere near being able to make something of note. If anything, I'm only just starting to understand how much I don't understand. But that's OK. That's the info needed to set reasonable goals.

Surge XT question: Is this a bug? I can assign mpe pressure to fx send, but it has no effect. Would be cool to do this per note, but I guess this is a monophonic parameter? Or do I simply misunderstand the concept?
@falktx sorry for tagging, but do you know maybe?

The moon is shining through the window at my desk. Made a patch for the amazing surge XT and linnstrument tonight. Played around with it and pressed record. This is recorded in one take. My main focus while creating sounds is always the ability to tell a story. I think this one works well from dark to light. Classic sawtooth patch with airwindows reverb.

Another demo of the violins being whispery.
I modified an arrangement I made a few years ago. I probably don't do it justice.

I refreshed Surge Storm.
This weekend I was determined to break the creative drought, so I revisted a piece of music that I made in 2022, taking away the limitation of only using one software synth.
If you're into music theory, it has a few 'moments' ;)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y_tzN4f-M8c
I used Surge XT synth, BBC Symphony Orchestra Discover (free) and Arturia Piano V (bundled with my keyboard).

I use #Ardour for producing all my tracks, #Carla for testing and experimenting with plugins, #SurgeXT & #NoiseMaker as synths, various stuff by brummer10 (#guitarix, ratatouille, ...) and #NAM and #Aida for guitars, #LSP plugins for IRs and samplers etc. #x42plugins for EQ and MIDI processing, #Cardinal for sound design & a lot more #FLOSS tools and plugins.
Expanding the scope of the question, I use #FAUST and #DPF for writing my own plugins and use them in a lot of my tracks.

I improved my virtual piano.
Edit: I accidentally rendered this at only 16 polyphony. It should sound more fluid than this.

An advantage of playing on a midi controller that's connected to a computer compared to playing on a musical keyboard is that you get to have lots of choices. Wanna play #piano - there are synths that have sampled the most famous piano models or even better, an awesome 30 something GB VSTI that's gonna beat what's on your keyboard in every way! Oh yeah speaking of synths, good luck finding the #accessibility you get on customizing your sound on a musical keyboard; Go with something like #CockosREAPER and #SurgeXT or even #reFXNexus and just taste the difference. Oh and last but not least, I got my midi controller for such a rediculous price, but its keys beat my keyboard's by a long shot! Feels more like a digital piano and that's what I was looking for.

Installed Linux MX on my 12 yo Lenovo Z500. After some tweaking, it records and playbacks just perfectly, at 96kHz and a still acceptable 8ms latency (4ms, if I would play 'normally').
My typical stress test (running ridiculously fast arpeggiators and changing params in real time) turned out so much fun, that it'll become my new project!
Thanks @mxlinux #Reaper, #Pianoteq, #SurgeXT for making it possible! -
