Hi! Perhaps you still need samples, it's no problem to have good ones. But the problem may be good and free ones. Although in the fairly recdent discussion about piano-sound there were some nice ones named. If you could actually spend a little then look around and choose a nice giga-sample. On the linuxsampler homepage you'll find a demo of a piano and I can say I have the "old lady grand" by pmi (post musical instruments), which wasn't too expensive, even for me, and sounds very well. It also works nicely with the linuxsampler. If you still prefer electric/synth-pianos: Try ZynAddSubFX, it has a few electric/synthetic pianos amongst its presets. Or if you really want to get into it take clm (common lisp music) or csound. Perhaps even PD can do it. At least clm and csound have a basic piano-model. You can manipulate and edit your sound from those models until your fingers start bleeding and your brain starts burning. :-) Kindest regards Julien -------- Music was my first love and it will be my last (John Miles) ======== FIND MY WEB-PROJECT AT: ======== http://ltsb.sourceforge.net the Linux TextBased Studio guide ======= AND MY PERSONAL PAGES AT: ======= http://www.juliencoder.de _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
