As cheesy as it might go, as a must already,
<br>
<br>
Qtractor 0.7.2 (tacky gluon beta) is out!
<br>
<br>
Quite frankly, there's nothing really stopping you from an upgrade
or rather update to taste! :)
<br>
<br>
Qtractor [1] is an audio/MIDI multi-track sequencer application
written in C++ with the Qt framework [2]. Target platform is
Linux, where the Jack Audio Connection Kit (JACK [3]) for audio
and the Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA [4]) for MIDI are
the main infrastructures to evolve as a fairly-featured Linux
desktop audio workstation GUI, specially dedicated to the personal
home-studio.
<br>
<br>
Major highlights for this dot release are:
<br>
<br>
* MIDI Track/Instrument bank/programs menu (NEW)
<br>
* VST plug-ins preset/bank (FXP/FXB) files support (NEW)
<br>
* Duplicate track menu command (NEW)
<br>
* XRUN status bar indicator (NEW)
<br>

And, of course, Qtractor [1] is now built to Qt5 [2] as per
configure default.
<br>
<br>
<br>
Hope you enjoy.

Change-log:
<br>
- Yet another audio/MIDI time drift correction fix, now giving it
some slack while turnaround looping on tempo changes.
<br>
- Prevent x11extras module from use on non-X11/Unix platforms.
<br>
- MIDI Track/Instrument cascading pop-up menus have been added, to
main and MIDI clip editor windows.
<br>
- VST Plugin preset/bank files support (FXB/FXP) is now being
integrated to the generic Plugin/Properties widget dialog.
<br>
- Added new Track/Duplicate menu command.
<br>
- Added simple XRUN red indicator to status bar.
<br>
- Make sure program change/presets are not selected on possibly
multi-timbral instrument plugins when inserted on a MIDI bus.
<br>
- Prefer Qt5 over Qt4 by default with configure script.
<br>
- Fixed a potential crash-bug on first enabling either once the
audio or MIDI metronomes.
