I would like to trigger samples with a qwerty keyboard. I am aware that freewheelin will allow loops to be turned off/on with a qwerty keyboard, but I am looking for more one-shot sample triggering. It would be nice to be able to assign multiple samples (whether loops, one-shot, etc.) to different keys and be able to trigger them by pressing the key. Is this possible? If so, what applications can be used to do it?
Some sort of virtual keyboard (vkeybd is the only one that comes to mind) will do the trick. With this and JACK (via qjackctl) you could connect your virtual MIDI keyboard to Hydrogen for any one-shot samples, which you can load in to a custom 'drummachine'. The loops can be toggled with Freewheeling directly (it would have to have focus to receive the keystrokes, unless you use the MIDI vkeybd); you might have to hack the .fweelin.rc file to disable the keys you want to use for your one-shots, though. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/linux-audio-user
