The authors are proud to announce the release of Aqualung 0.9beta8. Aqualung is an advanced music player originally targeted at GNU/Linux, today also running on other operating systems such as FreeBSD and MS Windows. We are striving to create one of the finest music players available, with respect to sound quality, stability, features and ease of use. This release is the latest in a series of beta releases on our way to the future stable release of Aqualung 1.0, which is anticipated to be released at the end of this year. The current release adds support for internet radio and tabbed playlists, also containing several smaller improvements and important bugfixes. The ChangeLog for this release is listed below.

First release candidate for 64 Studio 2.0 - "Safe as Milk"

by Daniel James

64 Studio develops a distribution of native free software for digital content creation on x86_64 hardware. It's based on the pure 64 port of Debian GNU/Linux, but with a specialised package selection and lots of other tweaks. We also produce custom versions for our OEM partners, and a 32-bit edition for legacy PC hardware. We are glad to announce that 64 Studio 2.0-rc1 has been released. The codename for this release is shamelessly lifted from the second track on Strictly Personal, the second album by Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band. Or the original title of the band's first album, whatever you prefer :-) Please note that is still a testing release, so if you want to stick to the stable version of 64 Studio just use the 1.0 installer. However we think this release is in pretty good shape, and expect to release 2.0-final later this month. The changelog is available here: http://cdd.64studio.com/releases/64studio/ChangeLog-2.0-rc1 and ISO images for amd64 and i386 here: http://cdd.64studio.com/releases/64studio/64studio_2.0-rc1_amd64.iso http://cdd.64studio.com/releases/64studio/64studio_2.0-rc1_i386.iso You can also upgrade from a 1.0 install, or from previous testing releases, using our testing APT repository: deb http://apt.64studio.com/64studio/testing 64studio main and running the 64studio-upgrade script, or clicking the 'Mark all upgrades' button in the Synaptic package manager. To avoid system breakage, PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU COMMENT OUT ANY OTHER APT REPOSITORIES (for example Debian ones), as they might interfere with the upgrade procedure. Happy testing!

[ANN] Qsynth 0.3.0 (unstable-qt4) has been released!

by Rui Nuno Capela

Hi everyone, Qsynth 0.3.0 is now out for you to try and guess what? This marks the point of no return to the aging Qt3 framework. Yes, Qt4 migration was complete. Hints from the change-log might be shallow, but nevertheless: - Qt4 migration has comenced and is now complete. Care must be taken with this new configuration file and location: this release starts a new one from scratch and won't reuse any of the previous existing ones, although cut and paste might help if you know what you'll be doing :) - Application icon is now installed to ${prefix}/share/pixmaps; application desktop entry file is now included in installation; spec file (RPM) is now a bit more openSUSE compliant; initial debianization. - Default font option names were adjusted to "Sans Serif" and "Monospace", wherever available. - The "keep child windows always on top" option is not set as default anymore, because window focus behavior gets tricky on some desktop environments (eg. Mac OS X, Gnome). - Autoconf (configure) scripting gets an update. Good grief. All this is rteadily available from the usual place: http://qsynth.sourceforge.net http://sourceforge.net/projects/qsynth Cheers && Enjoy & -- rncbc aka Rui Nuno Capela rncbc(a)rncbc.org

[ANN] QjackCtl 0.2.23 released!

by Rui Nuno Capela

Hi everyone, Not much to say, but an apologise: QjackCtl 0.2.23 has been released and is the one first ever introducing explicit JACK MIDI support (JACK >= 0.107.0). The version minor number did not bump as promised. Fact is I'm making that reservation for the coming and ever nearer Qt4 migration. So near that it will crash land around now sooner than after ;) The change-log says all the lesser bits too: - JACK MIDI support is now being introduced. Connections window now has a brand new MIDI tab, the older being renamed to ALSA, as for the ALSA/MIDI sequencer conveniency. The server settings now include the MIDI driver setup option (ALSA backend only). - Application icon is now installed to ${prefix}/share/pixmaps; application desktop entry file is now included in installation; spec file (RPM) is now a bit more openSUSE compliant; initial debianization. - Invalidation of the JACK client handle is now forced right on jack_shutdown notification, preventing a most probable fatal crash due to jack_deactivate and/or jack_client_close being called after the jack_watchdog kicks in. - Default font option names were adjusted to "Sans Serif" and "Monospace", wherever available. - The "keep child windows always on top" option is not set as default anymore, because window focus behavior gets tricky on some desktop environments (eg. Mac OS X, Gnome). - Autoconf (configure) scripting gets an update. Of course, official source tarball is made available from the project site: http://qjackctl.sourceforge.net http://sourceforge.net/projects/qjackctl Enjoy, as always :) -- rncbc aka Rui Nuno Capela rncbc(a)rncbc.org
