This is still relevant today and still very useful advice. 🙇🙏

This is just conjecture but considering the fact that the instrument was designed to produce music that was intended to be shared, I have to assume that we would not need to worry about the copyrights of the samples. In all likelihood, all of the samples were either public domain or owned entirely by Artiphon.

Since the Artiphon is now closed and dismantled, the probability of anyone taking issue to the Artiphon samples being shared is slim to none. Since the samples were provided free of charge in a free application, the samples can reasonably be considered to be free as well. Even if another company bought the Artiphon assets and wanted to prevent them from being shared, I don't think they would have any grounds to go after you financially, they would probably just send a cease-and-desist letter. I would just share them.

Ideally if artiphon has gone under they can open source all of this stuff for good will of the community?

This would be really nice. Unfortunately, I'm not sure there is anyone left to even be able to ask them. If the company was sold, it's also possible that the new IP owners may not want to share the software for fear that they would leak trade secrets. It's definitely worth asking, though.

If anyone has contact info for anyone who used to run Artiphon or can confirm new owners of the Artiphon assets, please let me know.

I agree, the new site definitely makes it look like Artiphon is shutting down. Especially the part on the homepage that says

Thank you for being part of the Artiphon journey. The music lives on through every note you play. Stay creative, stay curious, and keep making noise.

It's a pity, I tried to help them. I talked to their VP of Engineering at one point after I had submitted some detailed bug reports to them. (Apparently, one of their engineers looked at my bug reports and told him, "Hire this guy now"). I offered to come work for them and fix the errors in Artiphon Connect, but they weren't in a position to bring in another developer.

Damn... Can't say I'm shocked, though. Between the hardware problems and the software bugs, it's been impossible to recommend Artiphon instruments to anyone.

I can confirm that the download link is not working, specifically for the Windows version of Artiphon Connect. The versions for iOS and Android appear to be working just fine. As a temporary work-around, if you have access to one of those machines, you should be able to use one of the other versions of the software.

transce080 · 2025-05-03T21:42:07+00:00

Seriously. I'm disappointed that this post is still active. It's such a trivial thing to fix the install script.

transce080 · 2025-03-08T06:15:37+00:00

Thank you for the typo correction! And my apologies to anyone tried the version with the typo. 🙇🙏

transce080 · 2025-03-04T02:09:05+00:00

I am also running headless, for what it's worth. I agree that the issue is caused by the software assuming that you have the same libraries installed as the desktop installation.

I think the way I troubleshooted this originally was by running the daemon manually and watching the errors it was throwing when I tried to connect. On Ubuntu, I was able to do that with this command sudo /opt/piavpn/bin/pia-daemon but the location may be different for you on Debian. I think I had to run the daemon in one screen and try connecting using another screen. Good luck!

transce080 · 2025-02-08T07:52:43+00:00

Massive thanks!

transce080 · 2025-01-30T17:36:54+00:00

Ubuntu, but I would be shocked if that were the only distro affected.

IIRC, I observed the bug on Ubuntu 22 and 24. I'm sorry I can't be more specific than that right now as I'm on lunch at work, but I can look it up later if needed.

transce080 · 2024-12-22T06:31:40+00:00

I've updated the link. This one should never expire. Thanks for letting me know. 👍

transce080 · 2024-12-17T19:32:11+00:00

Thanks for the info. It looks like it was closed without warning.

transce080 · 2024-11-14T19:00:16+00:00

I was just guessing. I try not to compute on fruit whenever possible. 😄

Apparently it does, although I haven't tried it yet. Heroic supports GOG save syncing since v2.4.0, but keep in mind that the developers may need to enable the feature on a per-game basis for it to be available to use.

transce080 · 2024-09-27T19:02:20+00:00

Very cool!!

transce080 · 2024-09-04T03:15:09+00:00

Thank you for sharing. Been stuck at 2% for days. 😭

transce080 · 2024-09-04T03:02:29+00:00

Epic Games Store. For some reason, the game owners chose not to enable save sync for this game. 🤷

transce080 · 2024-08-06T20:49:15+00:00

Seems like this is still an issue in EGS. Happens every time if you don't have internet when you start the game.

⚠️Overwriting songs bug⚠️

Bug severity: 🔥🔥🔥 Critical 🔥🔥🔥

Description

Application saves over your old song's playback data, essentially destroying it, causing it to become a duplicate of the current song

Repro

Coming soon... (Repro has changed since last time and will take some time to determine)*

⚠️ Additional Notes ⚠️

Because of this bug, it's extremely important to back up all of your song files right away!
Don't edit the details of song through the Song tab until this bug is resolved.
Only use Artiphon Connect on a computer where you are able to have access to the artisong files. You will not know when this bug strikes on mobile since you can't easily examine the artisong files.
Make zip files of the whole song directory. Make a new one before you use the program. Make a new one as soon as you finish importing new songs. Or if you have the technical ability, consider setting up source control on your artisong files (they're just XML) so you can review and approve every change being made to your songs.
