John-Erik Mattssons midi files

#21 Post by vovchik »

Dear nooby,

You don't need a heavyweight program meant for composers scoring symphonies to listen to John-Erik Mattssons' music. I downloaded all the midi files and archived them (attached). You just need a midi player that uses soundfonts if you want to hear the pieces with any kind of reasonable sound. Timidity and Fluidsynth play midi files and make use of soundfonts. Enjoy:)

With kind regards,
vovchik

PS. My version of musescore (1.0) has an import plugin that permits the import of ABC files, and a slew of other formats, including musicxml.

Hi nooby,

i think you have already everything to hear these files.

You can use LazY Puppy 528 (it has Nted 1.10.18 build in).

Load the Audio-Midi.sfs.

Run Jack Audioconnection in menu>multimedia and then click start (if it will ot start use alsa audio wizard, works without rebooting).

start bristol gui in sfs applications menu and choose tab Jack.

choose sub-tab synthesizer O-S and run rhodes.(best to start mostly, there is an option in nted to transpose (-12, +12) the sound, which sometimes gives better results, couldn't find it yet).

start nted.

menu>file>import midi

go to connect at jack and connect the audio out left/right of bristol & brighton with playbacks alsa_pcm. 1 & 2 (tag audio)

connect midi output of nted with bristol and brighton. (tag midi)

change midi channel in nted to channel 1 (rightclick in nted, free space beteween scores in every instrument., tab midi)

click play button in nted - you should now hear music.

you can stop nted and changing the synthesizers to hear other sounds without doing the rest of the procedure again (no again connecting with jack audio and midi). do only use the jack synthesizers.

works nice and sometimes it is funny. :wink:

Greetings

RSH

Edit, just overseen, because it is so much and everything works out of the box:
the audio & midi sfs has also musescore :)

Edit: while playing the music in nted you can play with the parametric faders of the synthesizers, so try something and, please, have fun. :)

vovchik and RSH thanks indeed for all the efforts.

Would it work in LMMS too?

I do have Lazy puppy but I don't feel sure of
that I can follow even a detailed description.

But I would feel un-polite if I did not give it a try
and I sure at very motivated to listen to John-Erik Mattsson.

Okay they can not sound like him playing but it can indicate
what the melody is.

So thanks much appreciated and sorry if I derailed the thread.

So back on topic please :)

Yes, you can run lmms and import midi files, but i haven't tested how to get sound. Do not know if you must run jack to use lmms. whenever i played with lmms i have had loaded the demos and audio was alsa - not jack.

just play a little with LazY Puppy - it gives you lot's of possibilities to use your computer in a creative way.

- and do you know what?

You got one!

Still no word on MuseScore 1.1 for Puppy, but I've been using the MuseScore 1.0 SFS to compose and transcribe music, and it's great, far superior to Nted in my opinion. I may have to find out myself how to produce the 1.1 package (unless a newer version comes out first), but I've been too busy using 1.0 to get around to that.

I gave musescore-1.1 a go in dpup with Qt4-4.8.0 libs I have compiled for dpup.

It's working! :D Thanks a lot--that's a whole lot faster than getting around to producing a MuseScore 1.1 package myself!

#29 Post by alphamale »

every time i try to access edit/preferences the program crashes. other than that it works well. i get the same problem with both 1.1 and 1.2. currently running slacko 5.4, but i had the same issue with 5.3.1 and lucid.

here is the output when i run from terminal

What would be really nice would be a PET or SFS for the new MuseScore-2 series that is compatible with the latest release of the revitalized Lupu-5287 (July 2015). The newest version of MuseScore I can find that works with Lucid is the Musescore-1.0-lucid525-v2.pet from this thread, and Series 2 now has lots of cool new features. The Windows version MuseScore-2.0.2.msi works reasonably well under Wine, but a proper Puppy Linux version would be better.

MuseScore 2.0.3 has recently been released in a single-file AppImage for Linux (see https://musescore.org/en/download#Linux), which you can just make executable and run. It's supposed to work on almost any distribution. I haven't tried it on Puppy yet, but maybe you could. :D

Thanks for the information, pa_mcclamrock. I downloaded the AppImage for MuseScore 2.0.3 and gave it a spin. The program certainly opens and runs OK. So far I have not been able to devote a lot of time checking out exactly what works and what does not, but at first glance, one feature that does not seem to be working is the audio playback of the score. I guess I will have to look into this.

Edit: chapchap70 says here:
To get sound to work, go to edit>preferences>I/O> and make alsa your sound driver.
I tried this, and it works.
