Amuc (the Amsterdam Music Composer) version 1.5 has been available for some monthes already, but here is the official announcement. http://members.chello.nl/w.boeke/amuc/index.html Amuc is a light-weight tool for composing and playing music. 'Light-weight' in the sense of not needing graphical or other toolkits. It is very fast and offers useful features to help the inexperienced composer. Now it also incorporates a pitch extractor, translating a wave file to notes. Listen to a fast solo by John Coltrane on saxophone, followed by the extracted tune with a simple accompaniment, and then with a synthetic bass gitar and sampled drums: http://members.chello.nl/w.boeke/amuc/john_c.mp3

[ANN] a2jmidid version 2 released

by Nedko Arnaudov

a2jmidid is daemon for exposing legacy ALSA sequencer applications in JACK MIDI system. It is based on jack-alsamidi-0.5 (jackd alsa seq midi backend) by Dmitry Baikov. The main purpose is to ease usage of legacy, not JACK-ified apps, in JACK MIDI enabled systems. New in this release is addition of configure script (autotools) that enables compatibility with different JACK MIDI API variants. Planned features/improvements: * One JACK client per ALSA sequencer client * More control on what ports to bridge (currently bridging is fixed to non-hardware ports). * Real daemonization with log file, init.d script, etc. If someone wants to contribute please, contact me, or send patches, or request inclusion (Gna! a2jmidid project). As usual, packagers are more than welcome too. Homepage with screenshots: http://home.gna.org/a2jmidid/ Tarball download: http://download.gna.org/a2jmidid/ -- Nedko Arnaudov <GnuPG KeyID: DE1716B0>

Vamp plugin SDK v1.1b now available

by Chris Cannam

Version 1.1b of the Vamp plugin SDK is now available. http://www.vamp-plugins.org/ Vamp is a plugin API for audio analysis and feature extraction plugins written in C or C++. Its SDK features an easy-to-use set of C++ classes for plugin and host developers, a reference host implementation, example plugins, and documentation. It is supported across Linux, OS/X and Windows. Version 1.1b is a minor update with a small number of build and bug fixes. The prior version 1.1 of the SDK introduced a new set of classes designed to make it very simple for an application to use Vamp plugins, without needing to do complicated plugin lookup or audio processing themselves. Plugins and hosts remain 100% binary compatible with those built using the 1.0 version of the SDK. Chris

Q 7.8 released

by Albert Graef

Hi all, I've just released Q 7.8 which sports some important bugfixes and some nice new features. The most important addition probably is that Q now has a complete Qt interface. You can find the sources and a ready-made RPM for Linux (which contains almost everything surrounding Q, including the interfaces to Faust, MidiShare, Pd and SuperCollider and the multimedia examples) on the Q download page: http://q-lang.sourceforge.net/download.html For those of you who haven't heard about Q yet: It is a GPLed, modern-style functional programming language with good library support for multimedia and computer music applications. (Somewhat like Haskell, but interpreted and dynamically typed, and with much better system and multimedia libraries.) More information about Q can be found on the Q website at: http://q-lang.sourceforge.net Enjoy. :) Albert -- Dr. Albert Gr"af Dept. of Music-Informatics, University of Mainz, Germany Email: Dr.Graef(a)t-online.de, ag(a)muwiinfa.geschichte.uni-mainz.de WWW: http://www.musikinformatik.uni-mainz.de/ag

[ANN] gigedit 0.1.0

by Christian Schoenebeck

On behalf of Andreas Persson, I am pleased to announce the release of gigedit 0.1.0 [1], an instrument editor for gig files. You can find a screenshot here[2]. * With gigedit it is possible to modify existing, as well as to create new Gigasampler format instruments from scratch, which are not only accepted by LinuxSampler, but now also by Gigastudio. * You can run gigedit as stand-alone application or "attached"[3] to LinuxSampler. The latter case allows you to play and edit instruments at the same time, making all your modifications immediately audible, without having to reload the instruments into a sampler. * You can simply edit instruments by selecting the respective sampler channel and clicking on "Edit" in either QSampler or JSampler, which automatically spawns gigedit in "attached" mode. Plese notice that this is still a very young instrument editor, so better backup your .gig files before editing them with this application!
