Actually I think > it really, really cool. Thank you. Well, I can understand both people who think it's kinda cheesy and those who think it's cool. I'm confident I managed to give it character, anyway ;) > Is all those om-patches running in realtimeat the same time? If so which > computer do you have?

To avoid audible xruns completely, I ended up enabling only one patch for recording at a time. Most of the percussion patches can be run simultaneously here, so I have been able to work on them in context. For the rest, I compared and tweaked the sounds in pairs, a process like adapting B to go well with A, then C with B ... also relied on my imagination to some degree ;) I intended to record with MusE, keeping everything in one place. But while I had no problems with that earlier, I now found most of my patches to trigger some weird bug, resulting in crackling and even worse things. Nothing of that comes up when recording with Timemachine, so I know it's not Om or Jack (There's a bug report for this, of course). So I connected Timemachine with the Om outputs to record from for each single patch. Could have used Ardour, but didn't feel like creating all the tracks again and hooking everything up. (Someone called this a misuse of Timemachine. Well, I don't care about having 1 or more seconds of audio recorded before hitting record. Making connections is best done via Patchage, anyway. Timemachine offers meters and a big button, just what I need). The mixdown from Muse (after importing the audio files, adjusting levels, FX) appeared quite loud and full already, but JAMin surprised me with bringing it to the front even more :) Cheers, Thorsten
