Audio card

Posted by becks

edirol fa-101

Another GAS for my home studio.

The red box is a edirol FA-101 firewire audio card, bought used.

It works perfectly with my gnu/linux setup, using freebob driver, waiting for ffado stable release.

To many wires!

Experimental

Posted by becks

I know. It’s noise. But looped, and looped again become mantra.

Experimental track, recorded using ardour, jamin, freewheeling, zynaddsubfx and rakarrack.

Mirror

Posted by becks

I’m not a great player. I know
But i like to play, and play over and over different instruments.
This is a song for today: “mirror“. Tomorrow, who know?
Piano/bass looped 4 times, and a guitar, overdubbing tracks. Played with no error’s corrections, as usual. Sorry

Wubby say it’s to hard panned, piano on the left and guitar on rigth, bass on the middle, like an old 1950/60 mix, but i like it.

Drumming With WiiMote, Hydrogen and Itouch

Posted by becks

i wrote a little program that send midi signal to drum (hydrogen) with wiimote controller, using perl api (Linux::Input::Wiimote). In this video you can see also Drummer, an application for the apple itouch

you can download the script here

before running the script, you need to load snd-virmidi, and attach the midi jack with hydrogen. Edit also the script to change your wiimote mac. Be careful, this works for me, but is released with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY ;)

the audio on this video is not a great groove… is just a noise demo, sorry ;)
