Re: [ubuntu-studio-devel] Ubuntu Studio For Musicians handbook
Peter, This is absolutely amazing stuff. Putting it on a wiki would definitely make it a living document that can be updated as Ubuntu Studio evolves. In fact, I would like to officially extend an invitation to join our documentation team. To get started, sign-up for an account on https://launchpad.net and then let us know where to find your account (https://launchpad.net/~[us ername]). From there, we can add you to the Documentation team and get the ball rolling from there. If Ryan Hoover (aka SlidingHorn) is reading this, I'd like him to fill you in on where we are at. That said, I think your handbook deserves an entire section on the official wiki (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuStud io). As soon as you get that launchpad account, we can add you to the documentation team which should help at least speed-along whatever access is needed. Thank you for this! I can't wait to read it!

[ubuntu-studio-devel] Ubuntu Studio For Musicians handbook
Hi, I wrote a handbook called "Ubuntu Studio For Musicians" that covers most of the out-of-the-box programs, recording, mastering, making a CD, the basics of sound synthesis, and revkiews of some free VST instruments (see TOC below).I would like to put this guide in the public domain, and would like to know the best way to go about it? Parts of it could possibly be incorporated into the wiki pages (i just put in a request for a wiki documentation account). I have been using Ubuntu Studio for a few years and relying mostly on the forum for answers (along with the excellent online Ardour manual). Let me know if you think this 50-page handbook would be useful, and if so, could I get help editing it? Also where it might be posted as a standalone manual and easily found? This was written with version 16.04, and is intended for beginner/intermediate users. Table Of Contents 1. About this book Who this book is for Why buy this book?

[ubuntu-studio-devel] heads up
hey guys. I wanted to let you know that I've changed my username yet again. I found out that the one I changed to, talos7, was too close to someone else's username so now i've gone with hangar18 since it wasn't used and I snagged it. lol now i need to change it in the openid system for all ubuntu related sites and on launchpad. charlie 'hangar18' luna -- ubuntu-studio-devel mailing list ubuntu-studio-devel@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-devel
Re: [ubuntu-studio-devel] Saturday's Meeting (June 2, 2018)
good morning from California! I'm ok with cancelling the meeting. For me: I've yet to settle into a project to work on for Ubunu Studio. I'm still very interested in starting with documentation (since I feel like that's the 'entry' level project that I should do since I don't have any programming skills yet). is there any need for wallpapers? i can work on some photos for that. that's the end of my report. charlie > On May 31, 2018, at 21:24, Erich Eickmeyer wrote: > > Hey everyone, > > Something has come up and I'm likely not to be able to be at Saturday's > meeting.
