Perform

This section includes software to produce live music, interacting in realtime with the applications that generate sound out of microphone, midi, keyboard and mouse inputs. All this software requires Jack to work properly, so that it can be interconnected in a chain of programs, like a virtual rack of different applications.

Hydrogen is a drum-machine where you can load sample kits of instruments and compose a partiture for them to play on a specific rythm. It's homepage offers a collection of many more drum kits you can download, go to http://www.hydrogen-music.org.

Jamin is the Jack audio mastering interface, it can perform professional audio mastering of stereo input streams, equalizing signals with an intuitive and advanced interface to shape all frequencies in realtime.

Jack Rack is a powerful effect rack that can apply chains of audio plugins (LADSPA) on the sound currently being played by other programs. Using Jack you can interface it with all other performance tools and add one of the more than 200 effects available in dyne:bolic.

FreeWheeling is a funky application that lets you record and play multiple samples in realtime, so that they stay looping and can be overlayed one after the other: is a fresh tool to manipulate, sum and and create over recorded sounds, but requires you to read some instructions before start using it, since it's all controlled via keyboard (and, optionally, midi).
