Music and stuff

Lately I’ve been playing a lot more with audio. Here a list of the applications I’ve been using:
- JACK (Jack Audio Connection Kit) - Low Latency Audio Server (read: connect audio apps to each other)
- Ardour - most complete DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) I’ve ever seen anywhere, it’s the center of all my productions.
- Hydrogen - drum-sequencing. Still has some quirks, but I’m getting the hang of it.
- Patchage - nice frontend for JACK to hook everything audio up to each other (mostly for the line-in and hydrogens outputs into ardour).
- Xjadeo - I’m making a score for a video of a friend. This enables me to sync my audio to his video.
Maybe I’ll post some schematics how I exactly use all this later on. I will also be playing with JAMin for mastering, which will be an art in itself.
I’m also still trying to figure out how to work with an RT-kernel and what the main advantages are when doing this. Any tips are greatly appreciated!

Wow, I’ve been so busy lately that I have ignored my ‘blog’ completely!
I’ve been working on a couple of projects these past weeks. Among others a new website to bundle most of my multimedia activities: http://www.monkeyjohn.com
In the future this might be an actual company, but this of course depends on how successful its projects will be.
