Amazing stuff. 25 years after I first installed Buzz and still getting completely new things!

Looking forward to the tracker implementation

I've tried the instructions in Kubuntu 23.04 It installs and runs, but doesn't display - just shows a screenshot of the desktop at the time it ran. I can still right click, add machine but that's it! Edit - interestingly I can also get the x64 Buzz 2022 edition to install and run but same behaviour ...

I used Linux as my main os for years - until new Buzz and the touchscreen support in Windows 8.

I quite like Windows 10, but we'll see what 11 is like - I'd be tempted to go back if Buzz worked well in Wine!

Sadly it crashes 32bit Buzz a few seconds after switching to the sequence editor and Buzz disappears with no message. When I try in Buzz 64, it tries to show some sort of window briefly then disappears. Tried with both the default theme and the Ilke Machines, same results. Same behaviour here - it ...

I've had a try using wine, and also a trial of Codeweavers crossover. I installed dotnet40 into a 64 bit Windows 10 bottle, then Buzz. Similar in both - I can get Buzz to run but it's very slow and visually glitchy. I can add a machine, but as soon as I try and add a pattern it crashes. Certainly th...

Thanks! I'd read about this being under development a few months ago.

While we're talking about open source synths, I'd recommend trying Odin 2

It's not as deep as Surge, but still loads of possibilities.

Thank you! The Ctrl-Alt workaround works fine.

I think I've found a bug when loading VST3 plugins. It's the same on both OB-Xd and Odin2. When clicking on something that will give a pop up menu (eg "Voices" on Ob-Xd, or selecting oscillator or filter type on Odin2), the menu will briefly pop up then disappear, making it impossible to s...

Nice work! I didn't realise stuff like this could be done within Buzz. I need a second screen now..

If the sequence editor was adaptable like this, then the Jeskola Live machine is ripe for modification/increased functionality (hint )

Well I've always used FSM Philthy but I just checked out Tethys and it sounds great - couple of peer LFOs on the LP and HP cutoff and the analog control turned up

I know it's hardware but I picked up one of these recently https://www.korg.com/uk/products/dj/nts_1/ It's a tiny, self-assembly monophonic synth with built-in effects. You can load custom oscillators and effects onto it via USB. It sounds really good, and it's great in combination with Buzz - contr...

Thanks so much - the little horizontal view is really useful!

I'm on 1503 and I've never seen this horizontal sequencer before.
Is there something I'm missing?

Can I ask how you get the little horizontal sequence view above the pattern editor?

Thank you! I'll have to try this as have been trying to use Buzz on Linux for years.

I've got a 2i4 that also works well

OK, so not Buzz

I tend to start off with everything going to Master if playing around. Once it gets a bit further I use mixIO.

I tend to use Ambience by Smart Electronix (VST)
I've used it for ages, doesn't use up too much CPU, has lots of configurability. It's free.
