Freja Respin "extrox"

[Freja]

Development continuing well. Today I report pregress.

I was think about extrox "is this respin or distro" very long time.
Honor is not important for me, but if certified to Distrowatch, extrox will can reach a lot of user.
But finally I think "extrox is respin, because I love MX functions, I'm want to reserve MX full feature. ah, Tha'ts Shoud be called mx-extrox in example."

"Reach to many unknown users" or "Respin for well known MX users", I choose latter option.
Many DL count is not my priority.

My OS's name changed many times, users confused, sorry.
So I desided This OS's filnal formal name set to "MX Freja Respin extrox" in entire scene.
So I rewite Notation of this OS from now.

In fact, extrox is world's first "Free audio enhancer built-in Linux, Based MX Linux" I think.

This feature called "Freja Ignition", "Red Glider VFX", will refresh in extrox-25 (MX-25 based) is total new design, that name "Tangerine Fix".
Tangerine Fix's brandnew sound you can listen in this video. (Sound recorded from PC directly) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jPQvSVWLGOY
extrox MX-25 based version (MX-23 testbed demo)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l6qeoYe2VgM

MX-23 based recent ver1.8.1 will dissontinue and replace with extrox-25(ver2.0).
1.8.1 Red Glider and Tangerine Fix is very big difference in plugin and total design, Tangerine Fix has clearly greater sound.

Hi:
Congratulations for your respin and your decision, I think MX deserves it for the support you give to the respin creators, I don't use your respin because I'm a “newbie” in audio topics, but I'm sure your niche respin deserves more diffusion and surely it will be possible somehow to give it outside Distrowatch....
Good luck

[Freja]

Wow, MX Respin King called Senpai sent glad comment to me!
You're my Senpai! Okay, I'll do my best for extrox-25 make without Distrowatch registration.

hello there @Freja your works are worth the hype, especially when using good sound cans

but I am a sucker for tech being lean/light, I tried out extrox and what put me off was the higher ram usage compared to @AVLinux respins and I think the difference in ram usage is caused by xfce's consumption compared to enlightenment/moksha...

my request might be too demanding because of the technicalities involved but would it be possible to make kinda a deb file or any installation file of some sorts that would be at least mxlinux respin agnostic?

asking for it to be distro agnostic might be impossible due to the build requirements of mxlinux distro...

or can there be a way for users who want your audio tweaks to be able to go through steps that you could provide to replicate your effects on their distro/respin of choice?

I do audio/video work and that's why I use @AVLinux avl moksha/enlightenment since I need all the juice I can get and I can't guarantee using an OP computer but I would love to have your audio effects for listening pleasure...

pulseaudio is vital to extrox's sound effects but I use jack/pipewire for audio works on avl moksha/enlightenment

@Aceediq Yes, I kinda thought this day might come sometime...
My Audio Filter is seted GPLv3, License file in /usr/share/freja folder.

Then Can use Tangerine Fix at any Linux Dittribution. (Red Glider or earlyer is not has compatibility any Linux.)
Requires some audio plugins, I'll tell you later.

But I forgot about instal process, today is sunday so I spend this day to fix this issue.

Finally,
Audio Filter "Tangerine Fix" will provide as free software on sourceforge with install insuruction. (it's easy!)
Please wait tomorrow, I'm not think monopoly my audio filter. All free software authers keeps copyleft and I follow.

PS. It's get ready. please try from external link "Tangerine Fix Audio Enhancer for Linux".

Hi @Freja @Aceediq and others reading:

I think it should be clarified that as far as 'Audio' is concerned there is a difference between a system set up for creating Audio content and a system set up of for optimal consuming or listening to Audio content. AV Linux is designed for recording, editing and mixing Audio without any specific modifications to the output playback of the computer Audio system to have a 'flat' monitoring environment without any colorization or enhancements. Generally speaking Extrox is set up with an improved and enhanced listening experience for people's existing libraries. Both Respins are focusing on 'Audio' in general but are not the same in this regard.

true but I am also a visual guy, and in the cases of GUI, that can be an extreme...

why I am not really bothered by your concerns is because while I create based on media intuition, I also work by de facto standards and measurements available through GUI interfaces, for exeample, how a curve should look like when gunning for a particular sound...

why do I work like that? I am a results person even when the needed gadgets aren't available and I also use other devices to get a different experience to how a design looks or how an audio sounds...so I am okay with a frakenstein...it can't be that, it's tech, where we can hack and slash without causing biological harm or any harm at all, since I am just a reformatting away if I don't like the results of my experiment tinkering...

if ms laptops can come with modifications from dolby and the likes, and those laptops can be used for audio creation, then there are really no hard lines in tech at large with the exception of causing detriments to humans

though if extrox tangerine gets in my way, it is out but I am a believer of one gadget rules all does a lot of things if possible...imagining myself making a design or coding or curating notes/knowledge base at my desk for moderate to long periods without any leisure to cushion is not the workflow I aim for...

@Aceediq

Please let me clarify, I am not in any way making a value comparison between Extrox and AVL, I'm just pointing out a fundamental difference. Because we are sharing the excellent MX base you can add or subtract whatever programs you wish from either of them and blend them in any way you want. If I was an XFCE4 person I would use Extrox in a heartbeat!

I understand your stance to a good extent but I don't shy away from the results I want...it is me making the value comparison, yes, I need to because your making of avlinux or @Freja making of extrox doesn't afford me a balanced diet of adequate servings/proportions but I like them...just like cabbage and cream, they are stable enough to enable me try making MY SALAD

why would I toe the line and compromise a desire and have staring me in the face daily, the reality of testing out a 'daring' choice of having something on the path of being a glorious distro of mine?


just like you painted linux 'messy and glorious', I paint linux as a junkyard with no limits, why a junkyard? because I can go in there, pick out the glorious part, arrange them in the order I want to or possibly take the messy ones and combine them with other messy or glorious ones to make the entire thing glorious by being usable

if you were an xfce4 person? we all choose to become a person of this or that based on value, I used xfce4 back then due to being okay with ram usage over kde or gnome and at the cost of a slightly higher ram usage, having a very customizable UI over lxde

but now that xfce4 has joined the bigshots in ram usage, the value it offered enabling a compromise on scaling/graphics capabilities is no longer there which lead me to distrohopping for a better gtk based DE and fortunately that brought me to moksha with some compromises to be made though

but going to bed with compromises is a very bad idea, so I plan to sort out those compromises, isn't that how avlinux and extrox came to be? even mxlinux and most of the other distros came to be?

fragmentation! but no one wants to provide a modular distro, what is happening in linux today is happening in big corps but a major difference is that the difference in vehicle of fulfilment...for big corps, it is money and data, for linux it is adoption and indirect superimposition of dev choices...at the end of the day bothe ultimately leads to some form of control or restriction


we blame the big corps for limiting our choices and creating a walled garden but with a change of lens, linux also has a walled garden built out of different materials and methods - making all the choices seem available but limiting what can be had...


I hope I am not offpoint sorry, derailed the thread

[Freja]

@AVLinux Yes, AV Linux is workstation OS, user needs orginal sound strongly.
extrox is Amusement OS (called in website), I proposal Effected sound. In pure audio scene, "original sound is best" so they says.

His taeget is maybe thread lock disguised as a discussion? It's a new method of attack. If so, there is no need to respond.
