A quick demo using guitar effects pedals with Korg Volca synths.

With the Korg Volca Keys in poly mode, it is possible not just to play chords, but also sequence each of the three voices separately. Sequencer64 makes an excellent example, 3 separate scenes each with a one-note-at-a-time sequence Jack_keyboard is connected to the same MIDI output of Sequencer64 to show which notes are being played.

Playing with drumkv1, a drum sample player in Linux/Carla. Loaded with TR707 samples, I was messing with reverb and extra settings when I "hit" (ba dum tss) upon this very electric sounding feedback...

I am new to creating music (of any kind) and have been spending the past few month getting to grips with my options in Linux. I only want to use Linux and FOSS software, for better or worse ... it's a journey :) I was recently gifted a new, 61 key MIDI keyboard which I have been playing with the past few days and made this little tune. The sounds are a Rhodes electric piano from the soundfonts4u website, passed through the TAL Reverb 3 plugin. Simple and full of errors, but I enjoyed it. Soundfont in SF2 format is the "Nice Keys Ultimate V2", channel 16 — Straight Rhodes, from https://sites.google.com/site/soundfonts4u/ Software used is Qsynth, a QT front-end to fluidsynth using the above soundfont, TAL Reverb 3, and jack-keyboard from the Jack Audio Connection Kit to display the key input from my M-Audio Keystation 61 MK3. All connections and the TAL plugin is managed using Carla plugin host.
