[LAA] [ANN] Qsynth 0.2.6 is out!

by Rui Nuno Capela

Hi everyone, Today I've woke up and promptly decided to let a new official Qsynth be released as is from CVS HEAD. No big deal as there aren't any big news anyway :) So be it. And there it is: Qsynth 0.2.6 is out. As you can read from the change log, most are only nitpicking ones: - Main panel window now keeps its previous iconic state on system tray, on application restart (thanks to Chris Cannam for hinting this one). - Minor optimization in peak level meters update rate. Alternate but faster inline lroundf() function implementation is now used. - Most top-level widgets were missing the normal-widget flag, which were causing some sticky size behavior on some window managers. - Messages and channels window captions can now be set smaller as tool-widgets, in effect when child windows are kept always on top. - While on the engine setup dialog, the ALSA sequencer client identifier is now also disabled depending on the MIDI input option setting. - Experimental soundfont loader which prevents RAM image duplication if more than one engine loads the same soundfont file. Server-mode is now supported on multi-engine configurations by auto-incrementing the shell socket listening port (both patches handed by Dave Searls, thanks). - Engine name gets through the respective tab title when created. Fixed engine delete button enabling on the main window. - Changed deprecated copyright attribute to license, on qsynth.spec (RPM). - Added configure support for x86_64 libraries (Pedro Lopez-Cabanillas). - GPL address update. Of course, available in the usual sites: http://qsynth.sourceforge.net http://sourceforge.net/projects/qsynth Enjoy. -- rncbc aka Rui Nuno Capela rncbc(a)rncbc.org

[LAA] hexter 0.6.1

by Sean Bolton

Announcing a new release of the hexter DSSI plugin. http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php? group_id=104230&package_id=134428 hexter is a software synthesizer that models the sound generation of a Yamaha DX7 synthesizer. It can easily load most DX7 patch bank files, accept patch editing commands via MIDI sys-ex messages, and recreate the sound of the DX7 with greater accuracy than any other open-source emulation (that the author is aware of...) hexter operates as a plugin for the Disposable Soft Synth Interface (DSSI). No exciting new features come in version 0.6.1, just these: * Backed out a change in version 0.6.0, where the plugin was installed under a different name than the 0.5.x versions -- something which created headaches for distribution packagers. * Added a backward-compatibility feature so that version 0.6.1 can be used with existing projects made using 0.5.x versions, without changing how they sound. More information about hexter and DSSI can be found at: http://dssi.sourceforge.net/hexter.html hexter is written by Sean Bolton, and copyright (c)2007 under the GNU General Public License, version 2 or later.

[LAA] LAC streams online. help wanted for editing...

by Jörn Nettingsmeier

hi everyone! finally, the last missing dumps of the Linux Audio Conference streams have been uploaded raw and uncut to http://lad.linuxaudio.org/events/2007_tub/ (the last few files are uploading as i type). since the stream team was confronted with a workload so high as to cause severe thrashing (i.e. lots of running around without getting anything done), we have not been able to produce stream dumps in any sensible form. hence, we need YOU to help with post-processing. please grab some of the files you find at the address mentioned above, and sign up to http://www.medienwissenschaft.hu-berlin.de/lawici/index.php/Stream_post-pro… so that people know who is working on what and will not duplicate your work. sorry for this hassle, and thanks in advance for your efforts. best, jörn -- Kurt is up in Heaven now.

by nescivi

Hi all, After a while of recovering and figuring out the details on how to do this, we have now set up a little form online for you to order LAC'07 t-shirts. The t-shirts will have the same quality as the t-shirts you have seen the organisers wear, throughout the LAC in Berlin. This is a one-time offer only, and be sure to put in your orders soon, as the offer will only stand up until the 16th of April. We want to have the payment in advance, as we need to pay the cost of printing, packaging and postage. Please use the link on: http://www.lac.tu-berlin.de to go to the form, get more detailed information and order your shirts! sincerely, Marije

[LAA] Remaining issues : archive merging, gmane and style

by Marc-Olivier Barre

Hello again, Everything seems settled. The archives from music.columbia.edu are merged and new messages seem to be appended on the old archives. What's left ? - merging the pre-columbia era archives (I'll contact Fernando who seems to have the best copy of it) - changing the list information on gmane and also merging archives here once we have it all packed on our server. - Also changing the default style of the mailman site so it fits the style of the rest of linuxaudio.org All of the remaining operation should be transparent to you, except for gmane users who will need a little patience. __________________ Marc-Olivier Barre, Markinoko.
