Point taken.
Will this be officially adopted by the area?
I certainly intend to try and get it in front of the council, but they weren’t actively looking to get a flag. Folks around here can be hesitant to change, so I’m not getting my hopes up.
amminadabz@sh.itjust.worksOPto Vexillology@lemmy.world•My first flag! For the small city of Morrilton, AR, USAEnglish2·1 year agoI’ll miss the land or water if I have to choose one… Maybe some ambiguous teal to be both? Or I could do a much darker green against a lighter blue.
Definitely gonna apply all your other suggestions.

amminadabz@sh.itjust.worksto Open Source@lemmy.ml•Thoughts on free and open source music?5·2 years agoI take a similar approach to my compositions and arrangements on Musescore. Anyone can download the sheet music file and edit it, and most everything I do is under Creative Commons attribution/noncommercial. A lot of other Musescore users do this, it allows for a lot more accessible and free sheet music of both modern and classical music.

amminadabz@sh.itjust.worksOPto Open Source@lemmy.ml•Firmware developers needed: A new kind of synth with strum pad, algorithmic just intonation.English1·2 years agoC++ is the only language I have any experience with, and it’s a common enough choice for embedded development that i didnt see a need to learn a different language. If i had a programmer join who could work on the firmware and show me the ropes, id be willing to consider another language.

amminadabz@sh.itjust.worksOPto Open Source@lemmy.ml•Firmware developers needed: A new kind of synth with strum pad, algorithmic just intonation.2·2 years agoThe algorithm will ideally be written to be portable the first time around, but its starting out on the instrument because I think the stradella bass layout lends itself to controlling the algorithm manually. Pressing a chord button simultaneously declares what notes you want played, the harmonic funtion you expext them to fulfill, and thereby how they should be tuned in relation to eachother. Other control schemes have a bit of ambiguity of intent, which we can work around, bit i think Stradella is better.
As for midi specifications, the instrument will have midi input and MPE output (look into MPE if you’re not familiar, great stuff) to controll other digital hardware or software instruments. Once the algorithm is written, I hope it will be repackaged into various other formats (like a VST plugin, or a midi/MPE passthrough that runs on a PC or a dedicated midi hub).
amminadabz@sh.itjust.worksOPto Open Source@lemmy.ml•Firmware developers needed: A new kind of synth with strum pad, algorithmic just intonation.English2·2 years agoThere are a few ways.
-
The tuning root can be played manually (aloud or just for tuning) on the bass keyboard
-
another open source algorithm whose name has left me can recognize chords in real time and my algorithm can tune based on that
-
players can write a midi tuning track ahead of time to play along with

I’m from Arkansas, US. I identify more with my small town than with my state or nation. I also identify as a southerner, but somewhat reluctantly.
In times like these, I repeat the mantra: “At least you’re not in Mississippi.”
