unfa's Live Electronic Music (uLEM) [2023-07-30] - first encounter

[@jaaxxone]

I'm not sure where you are coming from, but I wish you well. Thank you so much for what you have done for Ardour in particular and open source in general. I think you have helped many creators and you should be proud of that.

Mulțumim!

[@fingereze7202]

HEY UNFA! Good to see you! 😁

[@unfa00]

Hey! Thanks! I'm glad to be able to move my feet again :D

[@pvcalarco]

Right on! Just diving in and seeing where the music takes you is adventurous and wonderful! Thanks for all you share for the linux audio community.

[@qrtart]

that was fun

[@merseyviking]

Man, you can really feel the point where you get into the groove!

[@unfa00]

Yeah, I think didn't notice it so clearly while I was going, because I was so focused, but I started seeing stuff is starting to come together nicely :)

[@tomwawer5714]

Unfaaaaaaaaaa!!!! My Ardour is not crashing I made a cook movie score for IFMS competition without single issue. Moog Mavis live recording and many instruments in one session yay

[@unfa00]

I'm very happy for you!

[@blackbirdchannel-c7b]

I congratulate you. I liked it very much. good fun!

[@unfa00]

[@unfa00]

Thanks! I hope to bring more next year :)

[@NeonLabsss]

your room is soo cool I want it

[@phyllixkaba4899]

Wow! Cool and creative!

[@unfa00]

Thanks! I had tons of fun preparing and doing this :)

[@hauiproductions8710]

Good to see you, Unfa ! I know why i kept the patreon support up ;-) Any chance you post the hardware setup you use ? Thanks and best wishes for you !

[@unfa00]

Thanks! I can go through it with a camera and explain what why and how.

[@blackcoffeerider]

​@@unfa00 yes pretty pretty please with sugar on top!??

[@antonionunes7659]

irado, Ta muito bom para o primeiro set!! unfa, are you using arduor for cue the aprs synth? it's remarkable only use open source software to party like this! Would be cool to have a video showing your setup of your live rig! i love the way and spirit you do things!

[@unfa00]

Hey, thanks :) I explain a bit in the captions on top - this is done 100% inside BespokeSynth. I couldn't get Ardours CueClips working and I decided to try Bespoke instead since that seems to work well. And I love it! It's completely different from anything else I've tried so far.

[@mikoajneronowicz582]

hymm. mocno eksperymentalne.

[@unfa00]

No, dopiero się uczę tego rodzaju twórczości muzycznej :)

[@mikoajneronowicz582]

@@unfa00 chiałbym mieć twoją wiedzę z zakresu obsługi audio (szczególnie JACK i lowlatecy) w Linuksie! Pozdrawiam!

[@davidbisok]

how can we book you? come to vienna

[@unfa00]

Hey! Thank you! I'm not really able to do serious live performances - it'd require a lot of work, and I just don't have enough time to do that alongside other projects :)

[@ordici_]

Great performance! Can't wait to see more live performance livestreams stuff! But I don't really understand why it was only 10 minutes long? Parties and live shows usually last longer than that. And at the end, it sounds like there is only one person there. Sounds like she is talking about a smoke machine, so must be an organisator. Was it a test run for a future real and big party?

[@unfa00]

I explain everything in the captions on top of the video :) TL;DR: This was in my home, and yes there was one person on the party - my wife :) It was short because it was the first attempt, and I didn't have much material yet. This was recorded in our living room.

[@ordici_]

@@unfa00 ​ @unfa00 Oh wow! I took the message at the end too literally. 😂I get it now. It looks very professional for a living room party! Can't wait for the livestreams. Talking about livestreams, do you know a way to get notifications on phone or PC for KZbin livestreams without having the mobile KZbin app? I run LineageOS, so I can't and don't want to do that. I wouldn't want to miss it!

[@unfa00]

I'm not sure, I usually ping everyone in my community before I go live. So I'd you use Rocket.Chat or Discord these should be able to get you notified.

[@SvenArnhold]

Awesome! Did you only use the matrix shaped device with the glowing butttons as step sequencer for drums, and what is it? Or did you some looping in software?

[@unfa00]

I have prepared some loops beforehand, same for the melodic instruments. In theory I could show these on that control surface and modify them, but I preferred being able to just play the kit live if desired. I used two of the knobs to change the range of drumkit instruments that are played. So I could take the snare out for example and play it's part myself.

Du bon son tb303

[@unfa00]

Thank you :)

[@dreetjeh]

@unfa00 Hi, great channel 👍 Question, do you think building an FX rack for live band would be doable? Was thinking about Carla with a few plugins like reverb, delay, compression, EQ and the like. Thx!

[@unfa00]

Sure!

[@juggaberglund]

Awesome mate 👏🏻🙏🏻 I am curious to set up a 100% linux rig myself but I struggle with the Jack thingys 😅 I produce on a pc with pc(curseword I know) but I want to give linux a try. AVlinux, is that better than Ubuntu Studio?

[@unfa00]

I didn't try Ubuntu Studio in (IIRC) over a decade, so I have no idea.

[@ArkforestMusic]

I think AV Linux and Ubuntu Studio have the same or similar capabilities and differ on other matters. I use AV Linux because I can use it without systemd (it is based on MX Linux, which is based on Debian). Ubuntu Studio is based on, well, you know. There are probably also differences with philosophy behind each distro as well. Otherwise I reckon give both a spin and see what you like better.

[@fingereze7202]

Heck I run it on Mint Linux 19.3 no problems. Its great! AVLinux is good too. I use that on laptop but desktop is my main machine.

[@unfa00]

I went for AV Linux because I know it's built to be optimized for RT audio, lightweight and reliable, having a solid basis. And man - MX Linux had some incredible tools that make maintenance much faster. Which also means I could fix a problem easier. Or just keep a known working bootable copy on a USB stick and use that! Ubuntu Studio seems more focused on ... well - studio work. AV Linux seems more fitting for performing live. I could be wrong though.

[@_DRMR_]

You don't necessarily need to use JACK (if you don't need to connect different audio software together and just work in a single DAW with plugins).

[@quickmixstudio]

What are you doing bro 😂😂😂

[@unfa00]

I have no idea :D

[@Maxim_Slim]

[@Nk-ti4st]

Hello, i am a freedoom contributor. You have an open issue, titled 'I could contribute some monster voice clips' where you contributed some sounds. Thanks for that! Are you going to contribute more, or the issue can be closed?

[@unfa00]

Hey! It can be closed, I think I was hoping I'd get some more specific requests, but it can be closed now, it's been a few years :)
