“If it ain’t broke don’t fix it!” And BTW your English is great! Much better than my French would be! Hi you for taking the time to take a look at AVL and give some feedback… Obviously AVL is not ideal for everyone and “never touch a working system” is always a good rule in the case of your existing setup. Please forgive my bad english, It was an attempt to give you a feedback from someone who really discovered AVL this time. Keep your good work!, your distro is nice, it was maybe not the right time for me to jump in, but be sure I will follow AVL closer now ! I take one lesson after this adventure, it is that distro-rolling is not to be lightly made in the audio production world, especially when you already have a working setup, as it takes much time to make your tools work smoothly again, and I prefer giving my time to music than system maintenance.īut after-all that was an interesting experience for me Synaptic gave me some broken things at the first refresh, something dealing with Cinerella I think
#Ardour review 2020 manual#
Installed it with no matter at all, but I think that for the non tech-savvy ones, the restore-tool can be confusing, esp when dealing with gparted, maybe could the manual be auto-displayed when live-booting before installation Looks vanished, nice DE setup, I would just find more convenient to get an extra taskbar on the upperside of the desktop. It’s really not an AVL fault but I think that’s me, who maybe expected too much of that try, esp with the latency improvementĪbout your distro, here is my little feedback : Ardour gave me much more midi bugs, esp with the loop mode, than on my usual distro,I don’t understand but that was really annoying for my point of view as I use and abuse the loop mode in my midi writing workflow to preview audio.Īfter 3 days fightingt against those problems I choosed to go back to my usual setup as I did more maintenance than music. It was really a strugle for me to recover my projects in ardour, weird behavior with my LV2 presets(some fine, some lost) The RT-Kernel didn’t improve the latency performance for my setup VS the Low Latency one I usually use, maybe I expected too much on that point
Pintscher never let down his guard.Not a pure distro problem, but 2 or 3 little things : But even the raucous blast of the Witches’ Sabbath seemed neat and calculated. Where was the romance? The orchestral playing was impressively tight and the cold discipline of the March to the Scaffold created a bracing kind of vigour. The opening was refined, the waltz swirled with straight-backed suavity. Berlioz’s Symphonie Fantastique unfolded not with heart-wrenched longing, but raised-eyebrow knowing – it was almost a callous “I told you so” to the love-crazed protagonist.
Fauré’s Pelléas et Mélisande suite sounded well blended, well behaved and impersonal – there was none of the score’s discreet sensuality or the eerie mystery of Maeterlinck’s play, for which Fauré composed his incidental music. Given the passion of the repertoire, it made for a frustrating evening. Pintscher tends to think about his music in visual terms here his gaze felt clinical and uninvolved. The results can be striking when he hones an entire orchestra into one incisive, pristine gesture, but in this all-French programme with the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra, he kept the ardent flux of the music too much at arm’s length. As a composer, Matthias Pintscher’s music is meticulous, economical and cerebral.
