[linux-audio-announce] [ANN] Aqualung 0.9beta5 released

by Tom Szilagyi

Aqualung: Music Player for GNU/Linux http://aqualung.sf.net Release 0.9beta5 It is our greatest pleasure to announce the fifth official beta release of Aqualung. Some features you'd rarely stumble upon in other players (at least not too many of them at once): * Gapless playback (designed for this from the ground up) * High quality decoders (eg. libMAD for mp3), many supported formats * High-quality sample rate conversion support via libsamplerate * LADSPA support * Music Store for organizing your music * And much, much more... We hope you will enjoy this release. The release ChangeLog follows below. 2006-06-30 Tom Szilagyi <tszilagyi at users dot sourceforge dot net> * Aqualung 0.9beta5 http://aqualung.sf.net This is a new milestone release after 17 months of silent development. Large parts of the program have been rewritten, refactored, fixed, etc. A multitude of new features have been added to the software, which now weighs into Open Source with about 30,000 lines of GPL'ed source code, all written by a handful of free-time developers (no, you won't need your whole hand). It won't make too much sense to precisely list every change made to the sources during this period - the list would be prohibitively lengthy. For the curious, the mailing list archive is recommended. The most important, high-level changes are summarized below. * Group CDs in the Playlist via "Album mode". Shuffle between records but play their contents in order! * Statusbars in Playlist and Music Store display statistics and other data. * Multiple Music Stores are supported - useful for separate genres, file formats or for music mounted from different file servers via NFS. * CDDB support! * iFP driver support for integrating with iRiver HW players! * Completely reworked Settings dialog, the new control center! * Embed Playlist into Main window for a more compact look! * Search facility for Music Store and Playlist. * Add support for Musepack (via libmpcdec), Monkey's Audio, Ogg Speex. * Rudimentary album art (cover display) support. * RVA-related work, improved metadata support. * Fixed a boatload of bugs concerning cyrillic filenames, etc. * MP3 improvements (file recognition, clipping, seeking...) * Better fault tolerance in Ogg Vorbis decoder. * Various GUI fixes, new command line options, etc, etc. * Improved build system for skins, icons, etc. * New skins (Ocean, Plain), new Logo (see About box)! ;-) * Better RT behaviour with Jack output. * Compiles and runs on AMD64 (thanks to Mark Knecht for testing)!

[linux-audio-announce] [ANN] Gneutronica 0.32

by Stephen Cameron

Gneutronica 0.32, Http://gneutronica.sourceforge.net Changes since 0.31: * Added drumkit definition for a Roland TR808 sound font. * Bugfix: inserted measures might get bogus tempo -- fixed. * MIDI output method abstraction... two instantiations raw MIDI and ALSA sequencer interface. * Now uses ALSA sequencer interface instead of raw MIDI.. * Bugfix: Scramble function had overflow bug that caused it to be non-random. Fixed. * Combined Pattern Editor widnow and Arrangement Editor window into a single window by putting them both into tabs in a Gtk notebook. * Output is assignable to up to 16 ALSA sequencer ports ("tracks") on a per-pattern basis to allow routing different patterns to different MIDI devices or softsynths. * Now there is a rudimentary melodic sequencer as well as a percussion sequencer. * Arrangement editor marks every 8 measures instead of every 10 Here's a diffstat between 0.31 and 0.32: BUGS | 5 Makefile | 16 TODO | 4 documentation/arranger_window.png | 0 documentation/drumkit_editor.png | 0 documentation/gneutronica.html | 110 ++- documentation/gneutronica_jack_connection.png | 0 documentation/gneutronica_logo.png | 0 documentation/pattern_editor.png | 0 documentation/pattern_editor1.png | 0 drumkits/tr808.dk | 19 gneutronica.c | 765 ++++++++++++++++++-------- gneutronica.h | 59 -- lang.h | 5 midioutput.h | 58 + midioutput_alsa.c | 156 +++++ midioutput_alsa.h | 57 + midioutput_raw.c | 156 +++++ midioutput_raw.h | 57 + old_fileformats.c | 268 +++++++++ old_fileformats.h | 2 sched.c | 23 sched.h | 5 versionnumber.txt | 2 24 files changed, 1465 insertions(+), 302 deletions(-) __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

[linux-audio-announce] [ANN] jack_capture V0.2.4

by Kjetil S. Matheussen

jack_capture is a small program to capture whatever sound is going out to your speakers into a file without every having to patch jack connections, fiddle around with fileformats, or set options on the argument line. This is the program I always wanted to have for jack, but no one made. So here it is. http://ccrma.stanford.edu/~kjetil/src/ Changes 0.2.3 -> 0.2.4: *Give message to stderr during recording (not only after) if any overruns occur. *Do not delete file after recording if any overruns have occured. (stupid jackreq code #$!@$) *Increased default buffer size from 0.5M to 2M.
