@whitequark@social.treehouse.systems If you want to dive deeper, and can read German... There's a 3000+ Page book "The Physics of the Electric Guitar" by Prof. Manfred Zollner from 2002 (available as PDF). Page 46 shows what the video animated. (Page 47 then shows how wounded strings behave differently..)

@thisven@metalhead.club Freut mich sehr das zu hören! Wurde der Vortag aufgezeichnet? Vielleicht auch was für den nächsten https://di.day/ #didit #ardour

https://x42-plugins.com was just updated.

The JACK standalone versions now have an option to disable autoconnect (since PipeWire session managers autoconnect well, but can't be instructed to automatically break a connection).

A balance.lv2 in-place processing bug was fixed, midifilter.lv2 now includes a chromatic cluster plugin (motivated by @nielso@digitalcourage.social and setBFree finally uses a LPF for smooth swell-pedal gain changes.

After seeing Ambre Ciel at a sold out show at the Elbphilharmonie last Saturday, today I met her at a living room concert in Berlin, performing in front of 30 people and a cat.

Quite the contrast. Her performance tonight was better, but the sound was significantly worse (no surprise there).

We had a nice chat and shared a glass of wine after the concert too.

I had an amazing time taking my Dad for a lifetime experience to the #elbphilharmonie last Saturday experiencing #Gondwana Records' yearly concert. The Ancient Infinity Orchestra and Ambre Ciel put on an amazing performance, and Chip Wickham killed it.

I was amazed how crisp the drums sounded in the space, and nuances of Chip's alto flute caused goosebumps. A perfect evening.

PS. All three artists can be found on bandcamp. Start with Ambre Ciel; I'm going to see her again in Berlin on Friday.
