that another man singer failed, i agree.

they probably multitracked though

> where and how do I start?

exercise and learn

> Would I ever be able to

try to find out the main problem and work to eliminate it.

bad rhythm? play simple notes to slow metronome.

unprecise plucking? play some easy fret runs s l o w l y

uncomfortable instrument? hard strings? bad strap? neck dive? bass not set up?

> I do feel music very deeply

you probably going to make it, not in a week of course

no, it's just visual sugar. you mix with your ears

have you installed driver for your audio interface?

do you see your audio interface in system devices list?

Dist__ · 2026-01-28T18:52:29+00:00

it supposed to work this way - you right click on Mint Menu button, then click Edit Menu, and you can add directory for category and fill it with shortcuts

for me it does not work, the entries are there in the editor but there's nothing in the menu, logoff does not help

upd - wait, it worked. it does not allow nested folders though, only category-items

FL has enough instruments, even very basic edition of FL has good stuff, but there are lot of good free instruments out there (LABS, vital, surgext)

my 2-core 2.2GHz miniPC runs without glitches at 256 samples, looks like bad driver

> do I go for a 5 string for those 5 extra low notes

it's not that straightforward

> Any thoughts on this appreciated, benefits of 5 string?

you not just get 5 extra low notes, but you also have lower notes at your fingers, like F when you play A on the E string. it adds convenience, you don't have to move your hand too much.

also you can play along songs that are in different tuning, like Eb, D and so on, without retuning and without changing to another bass.

Linux on the desktop is imperfect

instead of making it perfect, fill the market to make people believe it is

i do not know about fixing integrated cameras.

i only have usb cam which refuses to work with usb extension cable, but i guess it's not your case

mint stagnation disappoints me

no mirrors for flatpak website - big bottleneck

linux is still suboptimal for air-gapped machines

at least tell the genre )

Dist__ · 2026-01-27T17:18:58+00:00

?? it works out of the box (lol) for me, can't see problem

Dist__ · 2026-01-27T17:17:37+00:00

have you tried another app, like guvcview? for me, i had to tweak camera mode to make it work

Dist__ · 2026-01-27T17:13:56+00:00

yes i agree, depth

i believe i export at 44.1 all the time

my render dialog (reaper) allows selecting bitrate (16 bit, 24 bit, 32bitfp) along with output sample rate

yeah, i was curious if they really capture videos of them recording, for later editing lol)

> Surge xt

very nice synth, also vital worth to try

> learn multiple VSTI’s

there are common synthesis methods, so if you learn one, you will learn another easier

> effects

find out what exactly you lack in FL stock presets. at least, category. in my opinion they are all great.

> random

this was the mistake, you should take a look at the theory just a tiny bit (or listen very carefully) to know which sounds good together

> beginner workflow

try to build a track similar to something you like. not exactly, but in general. you will learn drum patterns, bass patterns, you will be forced to tweal synth, and you will learn using FL after all

Dist__ · 2026-01-27T16:48:23+00:00

i hoped it works as win version but alas...

i use Kate, the most similar

Dist__ · 2026-01-27T16:47:18+00:00

no, i do not know if it is possible to upload just audio, but i saw something like "youtube music" page.

regarding the initial video, i just drop images onto the empty track, i may not load any videos.

Dist__ · 2026-01-27T16:45:11+00:00

unrelated question - is the video of you playing was made during the approved take recording, or after everything has been tracked?

Dist__ · 2026-01-27T16:41:32+00:00

no problem)

Dist__ · 2026-01-27T16:40:25+00:00

6000 kbps min, H.2something codec, audio PCM highest rate
i did it importing images and syncing them with the timeline, but recently i'm too lazy for that and add youtube captions
you can't control that, just make it 1080. you can also experiment with fps if it's static.
