[LAU] [ANN] Vee One Suite 0.9.3 - An Autumn'18 Release

[Rui Nuno Capela]

Hi everyone!

The 'Vee One Suite' of so called 'old-school' software instruments,
synthv1 [1] as a polyphonic subtractive synthesizer, samplv1 [2] a
polyphonic sampler synthesizer, drumkv1 [3] as yet another drum-kit
sampler and padthv1 [4] as a polyphonic additive synthesizer, are now
all out for the 'septentrional' Autumn'18.

All available in dual standard forms:
- a pure stand-alone JACK client with JACK-session [5], NSM (Non Session
management [6]) and both JACK MIDI and ALSA MIDI [7] input support;
- a LV2 instrument plug-in [8].

Where applicable, the common change-log for this Fall goes like this:
- For safety reasons, all processing is now suspended while loading
presets or program changes are issued.
- AppStream metadata updated to be the most compliant with latest
freedesktop.org specification and recommendation.
- SIGTERM (and SIGINT) signal handler added to close the JACK
stand-alone client applications properly.
- Make the GUI not to show initially on NSM.
- Current element sample offset/loop start/end parameters automation is
now a possibility, on the LV2 plug-in only (applies to samplv1 [2] and
drumkv1 [3] only).
- Make NSM state independent to session display name, keeping backward
compatibility for old sessions.
- Give some more slack to schedule/worker thread ring-buffer.

The 'Vee One Suite' are free, open-source Linux Audio [10] software,
distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL) [11]
version 2 or later.

Let the rain come down!
