I really don't get it. 200€ for a plugin where you can get a hardware version for roughly the same price, or that can be recreated with basically any soft synth. And there are tons of 303 plugins, both paid and free.
I think the only way is to start a community and care/animate it. Even with several hundreds of people, instances aren't really lively. But we're responsible for this. If we offer regularly quality content, some people will come and stick around. In 2 words: provide value.
It's Dune for me. Because it's beautiful, because it's a great story, because it has exactly the kind of pace I like.
You're entirely right, I mixed things up. It's the SACEM, the french royalties collecting company which has been started this way.
It's still an interesting question to know where to draw the line about reusing other works of art.
Is taking a picture of a drawing and selling it with a filter fair? Our without filter? Is a recording of a recording where you tweak really little things fair?
Where do you draw the line?
Copyright started when French composers noticed people were using their music and they didn't get anything from it. Are you ready as a professional musician to accept people monetising your work without your knowledge, consent and without you getting anything?
What would be a good system? A system that can realistically be implemented as of today.
First of all, it's a sponsored feature from the french ministry of education so I'll drink to this.
And it makes definitely sense in a context of smartphone for video use: you film something, trim it and upload it. No need of an external editor for simple stuff. Great for teachers or anybody using the platform as a free tool and not as an ideological platform.
Maybe https://sepiasearch.org/ is a good way to discover content on peertube. It's a PeerTube search engine.
Zrythm is a new (still in alpha version) DAW on the not overly crowded FOSS DAW market. It's aimed at music producers, not necessarily engineers like ardour.
What I like a lot, is that it does a bit of everything, borrows nice concepts here and there, here are a few examples.
- Dragging the bottom right corner of a region duplicates the region.
- It supports all linux plugins format (I'm looking at you LMMS)
- It has a nice plugin browser, a monitor section and you can easily export stems (I'm looking at you qtractor)
- I has a chord/scale helper, perfect for creating solid harmonies.
- It has a solid MIDI system (looking at you ardour)
- It does audio and MIDI, od course
- You can modulate parameters using a modulator track (think modulate your pan or just any plugin parameter using an LFO)
It's not entirely stable yet, there a quite some little things to iron out, but it's already usable, testable, and the dev is really reactive. Please report bugs (you can even do it per email, without singing in) and support the project if you can.
Could you please elaborate on your usecase and workflow?
There's no FOSS plugin doing all of what Thimeo offers. You can get close with a lot of processing, but not the same.
