Re: [SHR] new package: theremin (alfa version warning)
The stutter is similar to what I heard when using fluidsynth on the Neo. Does this app use a synth program to generate the sound? Or does it do it directly? -Steven On Mon, Oct 5, 2009 at 9:29 AM, Aapo Rantalainen aapo.rantalai...@gmail.com wrote: I packaged maemo-theremin[1] on freerunner SHR-U.

Package: http://www.opkg.org/package_287.html Info http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Theremin -Aapo Rantalainen [1] http://theremin.garage.maemo.org/ Thanks a lot for the package. I think I found a solution to get it working a little bit better? First, I used the timbre Clarinet. Result is better than with the other timbers (SINE + ADSR, Plcuked String, Trombone). Then, I modified the Exec line in the .desktop file Exec=DISPLAY=:0.0 theremin renice -n 19 -p $! I don't understand why the DISPLAY=:0.0 makes the difference but it does.

Re: [SHR] new package: theremin (alfa version warning)
Hi Aapo, Cool project. But seeing this I wonder - wouldn't it even be a better idea to use the accelerometers instead of the touchscreen? Or even use both: accelerometers for the pitch and touchscreen for the amplitude - like the original theremin :) Just my 2ct, Andreas Aapo Rantalainen wrote: I packaged maemo-theremin[1] on freerunner SHR-U.

But when N900 (with accelerometers) really comes maybe upstream is interested in this idea. -Aapo Rantalainen ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
