Still working on Moonlander, my graphical (Linux only) Gemini client. (Previous Thread)
Since posting that, Moonlander has, at least for me, reached daily driver status, though since I don't do much on Gemini, there are missing stuff still. Also, there are now pre-built binaries in case anybody else wants to take it for a spin.
For what's new, I've done a dev log post on Gemini a couple days ago:
and I still do the semi-realtime dev updates on Mastodon whenever I'm working on it: https://mastodon.social/@admicos
Moonlander looks amazing. Great work! Gemini sites and projects are really booming lately. What got you interested in it?
Over the weekend I picked up a couple of software synths for Logic Pro that emulate old synths I loved as a kid. They're pretty impressive and in some ways better than the originals (more polyphony, better UI, etc.). I have written a software synth in the past, so I thought I might try my hand at it again after seeing what I can do with it. So I started working on one. It's in the very preliminary stages. At this point I'm just generating a waveform and playing it out the speaker. I don't even have it packaged up in a useable way for a DAW to access it. I have grand ambitions on the UI that I don't know if I can realistically implement. It may fall apart completely, or I may scale back, or maybe I'll push myself and actually get it working. Who knows? It will be a fun diversion. I'm taking next week off of work, so it will give me something to do with my days since I can't go anywhere due to the pandemic.
