[LAD] [ANN] Qtractor 0.6.1 & Vee One Suite 0.4.2 - A pre-LAC beta release frenzy!

[Rui Nuno Capela]

Howdy!

As a pre-LAC release frenzy,

   Qtractor 0.6.1 (bitsy sweet beta) is out!

the change-log for this release are mainly fixes:
- New user preference option added as 
View/Options.../Display/Transport/Hold auto-scrolling (follow play-head) 
on edits (after requests by Holger Marzen and Louigi Verona, thanks).
- All color chooser dialogs were missing proper titles.
- Audio peak file re-generation and clean-up has been hopefully fixed 
and cache optimized (re. drawing audio clip waveforms).
- Fixed initial session snap-per-beat setting on main toolbar.
- Clip/Export...'ed files are now made persistent, no questions asked 
(after a ticket by Oliver Kester, thanks).
- Portuguese (pt) translation added (by Esteban Viveros, thanks).


The Vee One Suite of old-school also gets an interesting update.

changes for the third proto-beta release are:
- Badly named 'Noise' wave-shape oscillators get their band-limited 
treat option and re-labeled as 'Rand' (synthv1 only); also a brand new 
wave-shape 'Noise' is then introduced (now for real :)).
- New user preference option, cf. Help/Use native dialogs.
- An anti-denormal regression applied to the Phaser fx stage (affecting 
early proto-beta >= 0.4.0).

all still available in dual form, as usual:
- a pure stand-alone JACK client with JACK-session, NSM (Non Session 
management) and both JACK MIDI and ALSA MIDI input support;
- a LV2 instrument plugin.


Remember that both Qtractor and the Vee One Suite are free and 
open-source Linux Audio software, distributed under the terms of the GNU 
General Public License (GPL) version 2 or later.

See you all on LAC2014 at ZKM-Karlsruhe!
