[linux-audio-announce] ANN: Canorus 0.2.5 is out

by Reinhard

Canorus development team is happy to announce the new release of Canorus - a free cross-platform music score editor, version 0.2.5. The release took lots of effort from core developers, various contributors, testers and translators. This release mostly brought huge under the hood changes. Among others, the most notible features are the new GUI and LilyPond support. Finally we would like to mention a close-related project to Canorus, Harmonia (http://harmonia.berlios.de). A project aimed at harmony analysis which works as a Canorus plugin. Changes summary: - New Doxygen documentation. - Initial work on MacOSX port. - Improved function marking rendering - Scripting engine now offers integration with Canorus menu, import/export dialogs and keyboard and mouse events. - New completely XML CanorusML format. - LilyPond document export support. - LilyPond voice import/export support. - Rewritten GUI. Now supports multiple main windows. Added lots of icons. - Translations support. Current translations: English, Slovenian. - Majority of the code rewritten so we have a more robust foundation now for future development. - Lots of warnings, crashes, bugfixes and memory leaks fixed in MIDI, GUI and Scripting engine.

by Pau Arumi

STUDENT: Audio and Music software is your thing? Need a part-time job of $4500 for this summer? Want to have fun developing free software? We are happy to announce that the CLAM project is participating, for the first time, in the 2007 edition of Google's Summer of Code. CLAM is not the only audio-linux project in GSoC, Ardour and Mixxx also did it. See [1] for the whole list APPLICATION DEADLINE: 24 March 2007 Find all the information in the CLAM web: http://clam.iua.upf.edu and its SoC wiki page [2] We are very excited to offer a number of ideas that would benefit CLAM now that it is about to reach its 1.0 release. We also encourage you to propose new ideas if you feel none of the ones offered by the CLAM team suits your profile or interests. Looking forward to working with you… The CLAM team 1. http://code.google.com/soc 2. http://iua-share.upf.edu/wikis/clam/index.php/GSoC_2007 -- Google Summer of Code is a program that offers student developers stipends to write code for various open source projects. Google will be working with a several open source, free software and technology-related groups to identify and fund several projects over a three month period. Historically, the program has brought together over 1,000 students with over 100 open source projects, to create hundreds of thousands of lines of code. The program, which kicked off in 2005, is now in its third year, following on from a very successful 2006.

[linux-audio-announce] Open Sound System v4.0 released

by Hannu Savolainen

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Open Sound System v4.0 Released. CULVER CITY, CA, March 15, 2007: 4Front Technologies is announcing the availability of Open Sound System (OSS) version 4.0 for Linux, Solaris, FreeBSD, Open Server6 and UnixWare7. Open Sound System is a cross platform audio architecture that provides drivers for most consumer and professional audio devices and comes with an API that allows applications to be simply recompiled on any of the supported operating systems. New Features: o New and improved transparent Virtual Mixer engine - Allows up to 16 applications to share the same "real" audio device. - Supports recording and full duplex in addition to playback. - Ability to mix stereo and multichannel audio streams up to 7.1/192Khz/32bit. - Supports full 24 bit range without loss of precision during internal computations. - mmap() support for games like DoomIII and Quake4. - Each application has its own independant volume controls. - Supports loop back recording. o Full Solaris Audio Device Architecture (SADA) emulation on Solaris so that legacy Solaris audio apps can run on Open Sound System drivers. o Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA) Library emulation support so that popular ALSA apps (the ones that use the ALSA library interface) can run on Open Sound System. o 100% backwards compatibility for Open Sound System (OSS) v3 API. o 64bit internal processing guarantees audio fidelity and precision if the audio data needs to be converted. o New device enumeration and mixer API makes it very easy to manage devices programatically. o Uses up to date native kernel interfaces and installation methods will enable OSS to keep up with changes to the operating systems for the forseeable future. o Updated drivers for all devices supported in the older OSS v3.9x versions. Support for obsolete ISA bus devices has been finally withdrawn from Open Sound System v4.0. The virtual mixer in Open Sound v4.0 will give the user multiple virtual full duplex multichannel audio streams. It is possible to run a full duplex VOIP session, view a DVD in full 5.1 surround sound and play popular video game all at the same time without any complicated device setup and configuration. Open Sound v4.0 brings unmatched device and system management capabilities that make it ideal and easy to setup in virtualized environments.
