Hi all,
I am pleased to announce that Klactoveedsedstene v1.0.3 has just been
released.
It doesn't include any new features as such, but has become more
intelligent.
This includes automatic detection of HTTP proxy, automatic import dialog
after installation, and various other minor details.
Maybe not of great interest to this group, but since v1.0.2, it also
supports Windows.
Visit www.klactoveedsedstene.com, and try out a cool Song Player.
Regards
Viggo
On behalf of the entire Rivendell development team, I'm pleased to announce
the release of Rivendell v1.7.0. Rivendell is a full-featured radio
automation system targeted for use in professional broadcast environments. It
is available under the GNU General Public License. Changes in this release
include (from the NEWS file):
*** snip snip ***
Changes:
Log Import Format Presets. Added preset import configurations in
RDAdmin->ManageServices for several third-party scheduler systems.
The following systems are supported:
CounterPoint Software
Music 1
PowerGold
RadioTraffic.com
Rivendell Standard Import
Visual Traffic
New AsPlayed Report Format. An ELR format for Music 1 in has been
added in RDAdmin->ManageReports.
Log Import Scripts. It is now possible to specify an optional script to be
run at log import time before regular import processing takes place. This
can be configured in RDAdmin->ManageServices with the 'Preimport Command'
fields. These fields accept the same wildcard sequences as 'Path' fields.
High-Resolution Timing. This version of Rivendell debuts the ability to
specify the start times and lengths of log events with 1/10 second
precision.
New Translations. Two Norwegian translations (nn_NO and nb_NO) and a
Spanish translation (es) have been added.
Database Update:
This version of Rivendell uses database schema version 186, and will
automatically upgrade any earlier versions. To see the current schema
version prior to upgrade, see RDAdmin->SystemInfo.
As always, be sure to run RDAdmin immediately after upgrading to allow
any necessary changes to the database schema to be applied. Due to the
complexity of the schema changes required for this update, the process
may take significantly longer to execute than is commonly the case;
users are cautioned to allow for ample time operationally.

1. Summary of changes in this release
-------------------------------------
Various bugfixes, including a fix to a bug causing audible glitches
with old versions of ALSA and certain hardware drivers.
2. What is Ecasound?
--------------------
Ecasound is a software package designed for multitrack audio processing.
It can be used for simple tasks like audio playback, recording and format
conversions, as well as for multitrack effect processing, mixing,
recording and signal recycling. Ecasound supports a wide range of audio
inputs, outputs and effect algorithms. Effects and audio objects can be
combined in various ways, and their parameters can be controlled by
operator objects like oscillators and MIDI-CCs. A versatile console mode
user-interface is included in the package.
Primary platform for running Ecasound is GNU/Linux. Ecasound can also be
run on many UNIX-derived systems such as FreeBSD, Mac OS X and Solaris.
Limited support for Windows is available through Cygwin. Ecasound is
licensed under the GPL. The Ecasound Control Interface (ECI) is licensed
under the LGPL.
3. Changes in 2.7.x series
--------------------------
v2.7.1:
* Bugfixes.
v2.7.0:
* Open Sound Control (OSC) support. See the initial announcement
mail sent to ecasound-list:
http://eca.cx/ecasound-list/2009/04/0036-fixed.html
Current interface is documented at:
http://eca.cx/ecasound/Documentation/ecasound_osc_interface.txt
The interface is still limited and subject to change in
later releases, but it's a start.
* New '-chorder' operator that allows to reorder channels of
an audio stream. Also duplication and omission of certain
channels is possible. See ecasound(1) man page for more
information.
* Added new amplify/gain variant '-eadb' that allows to specify
the gain in dB. See the related mail thread:
http://eca.cx/ecasound-list/2009/03/0034.html
* Refactored POSIX signal handling in ecasound. See the following
mail for some rationale, as well as a list of changes.
See mail thread:
http://eca.cx/ecasound-list/2009/02/0027.html
* Various optimizations to Ecasound inner loops using
the liboil library. See http://liboil.freedesktop.org/wiki/
To enable the optimizations, liboil-0.3 development files
need to be installed and '--enable-liboil' must be passed
to Ecasound's configure script.
* New 'cop-get' interactive mode command. See the updated
ecasound-iam(1) manual page for further info.
Full list of changes is available at:
- http://www.eca.cx/ecasound/history.php
4. Interface and configuration file changes in 2.7 series
---------------------------------------------------------
v2.7.0:
Output of '-ev' operator has been renewed.
The name for default chainsetup created from command line is now
"untitled-chainsetup".
Most of the entries in the installed ecasoundrc file
(in ${prefix}/share/ecasound/ecasoundrc), are now commented
out by default.
Major changes to the libecasound library public interface.
This should not really affect anyone anymore, as direct use of
libecasound has been discouraged for a long time and it is
available only as a static library, but just in case someone
is still using it. See libecasound/ChangeLog for a detailed
list of changes.

A development snapshot, version 1.5c, of MMA--Musical MIDI Accompaniment
is available for downloading. Included in this release:
- A new track, the Plectrum. This can generate a realistic MIDI guitar.
Getting a realistic guitar sound using MIDI has been notoriously difficult
as calculating the notes in each chord and strumming patterns can be very
tricky. Now the MMA PLECTRUM pattern takes care of most of this for you
so all you have to do is to enter the chords names and how when you want
each string to be strummed or plucked. An example is availabe at:
http://www.mellowood.ca/mma/examples.html#plectrum
- A number of minor bug fixes.
This is very close to a 1.6 release! Your bug reports and other input is needed.
Get this version at:
http://www.mellowood.ca/mma/downloads.html#developer
MMA is a accompaniment generator -- it creates midi tracks
for a soloist to perform with. User supplied files contain
pattern selections, chords, and MMA directives. For full details

[Forwarding D. Michael McIntyre's release note from the Rosegarden
devel list...]
====== ROSEGARDEN 10.02, codename "Thorn" RELEASED ======
The Rosegarden team is proud to announce the release of version 10.02 of
Rosegarden, an audio and MIDI sequencer and musical notation editor for Linux.
This release on 14th February, 2010 marks five years to the day since the
release of 1.0 (which would be be called 05.02 using our current numbering
scheme).
http://www.rosegardenmusic.com/
With this release, we finally bring an end to the long and difficult job of
transforming Rosegarden from an obsolete KDE 3 application into a modern Qt 4
application. There was no precedent for an application following this upgrade
path, and so we had to begin this process by writing our own custom porting
tools. From there, we spent an entire year chipping away at an immense
mountain of compiler errors before we could even get a glimpse to see if our
new code was going to work. From that first peek until now swallowed the
biggest part of a second year, digging into every dusty corner, and putting
everything back in order.
Along the way, we found plenty of opportunities to improve Rosegarden, and get
this new codebase turned into an exciting landmark release that rivals 1.0 for
the sheer amount of collective effort that went into its making. We have
fixed hundreds of bugs, including many old bugs that had been around for
years, and we have introduced dozens of new features.
===== Usability Enhancements =====
* With its bold new custom look, including hundreds of new icons, Rosegarden
ensures all of its interface elements are usable, freeing you to configure the
rest of your system any way you like
* With its more compact, netbook-friendly interface, Rosegarden gets more
done with less screen real estate
* Rosegarden has a low installation footprint, and creates local, user-
editable copies of all example and library files
* Expanded translations (varies by language) put more of Rosegarden in your
native language than has ever been possible before
* You may now run as many instances of Rosegarden as you like, in parallel,
and can even install and run different versions simultaneously
* Enhanced device management support, including an all-new MIDI device
manager, finally addresses a number of long-standing usability issues and bugs
* Control rulers (notation and matrix) completely redesigned from the ground
up to use primary editing tools (eg. pencil) and present controller data as a
series of connected points that may be manipulated very fluidly and easily
* Control rulers share a selection with their associated editor (notation or
matrix), allowing control events to be cut, copied and pasted along with notes
* A number of non-critical warning dialogs about system configuration issues
have been moved out of your way, and onto a compact health indicator at the
bottom right of the main window
* You can add, display and access what we hope will prove to be an
effectively unlimited number of MIDI controllers in the instrument parameters
box, eliminating the need for an alternative tabbed layout mode
* New streamlined interface merges the insertion cursor functions into the
playback cursor, so Rosegarden has only one cursor at long last
* All new integrated project packager provides built-in, native support for
Rosegarden project packages, eliminates a number of obscure dependencies, and
provides a cleaner user experience
* Document modified status is indicated in the title bar
* Markers text entry fields have been renamed to make it more clear which of
the two editable texts is the functional one
* The simple event editor now handles notation-quantized notes more
intelligently
* All but a few keyboard shortcuts are now exposed through menu entries or
tooltips, to facilitate learning
* Improved controller manager dialog now opens the editor automatically
after creating a new controller
* Grace notes are scaled correctly relative to full-sized notes (in a way
that may lead to true support of cue-sized notation in the future)
===== New Features =====
==== General ====
* Most windows have special function-related icons associated with them, so
it is easier to use your desktop task manager to find the window you seek
* Improved flashing metronome mode and more realistic looking LEDs for the
transport
* Rosegarden comes bundled with a library of composition templates (.rgt
files), and any file can be saved as a template with the new File => Save As
Template option
* New support for Frontier Design Group’s TranzPort™ contributed by Immanuel
Litzroth
* The MIDI device manager can now import bank and program information from
LinuxSampler .lscp files
* The automatic clef guessing feature (used in a variety of contexts, such
as when importing MIDI or splitting a segment by pitch) now adds transposing
clefs to its repertoire in order to avoid excessive ledger lines in parts that
extend to the extremes of reproducible pitch
==== Notation ====
* Higher quality on-screen rendering removes the annoying chromatic
artifacts that have afflicted all previous versions, and provides crisp, clear
rendering
* New pan and zoom allows you to move around quickly, and zoom the window
contents as far in or out as you like, or zoom either axis independently
* You can now add a layer to the part you're editing with just one click.
The "Add Layer" function uses the currently active segment as a template for
creating a new "layer" segment in the same place, with the same clefs and key
signatures, but in a contrasting color
* The segment changer (located with the pan and zoom controls) provides a
visual indication of which segment is currently active for editing, even in
continuous page layout mode, and allows you to change segments without
removing your right hand from your mouse
* Print and Print Preview are both performed through LilyPond, which
provides extremely high-quality output
* Expanded range of point sizes (from 6 to 30) available for LilyPond export
* New interactive LilyPond Print/Preview allows you to configure your
preferences for which applications you prefer to use for printing files and
viewing PDFs, and compares the result of the LilyPond conversion operation
against your LilyPond export options in order to offer intelligent suggestions
for what steps to take when things go wrong
* New support for notation symbols, giving Rosegarden the ability to display
(non-operative) segno, coda and breath mark symbols
* New marks for open, stopped/muted, and harmonic/flageolet
* New cycle slashes function allows you to use the **/** shortcut or the new
toolbar icon to cycle through from 0 to 5 slashes on selected notes
* All marks are exported to LilyPond now, and mark placement has been
aligned with LilyPond's placement rules, following the philosophy that they
have spent vastly more time studying best notation practices than we have, and
where we disagreed, we were wrong
* Add Trill With Line moves from Note ==> Marks... and the marks toolbar to
Phrase and the group toolbar, reflecting an internal change that transforms
this from a mark attached to a single note into a more flexible indication
that can span any number of (usually tied) notes. The mark version still
exists internally to preserve compatibility with existing compositions
* Even quicker and improved keyboard access to inserting notes and rests,
with the default duration determined by the denominator of the current time
signature
* More compact notation toolbar layout combines note and rest entry in one
place, freeing up space, and improving efficiency
* When using the notation editor to insert notes, long notes are tied at
barlines by default, so red barlines are less common
==== Matrix ====
* At long last it is possible to open multiple segments (from any number of
different tracks) in the same matrix view
* The pitch highlights on I III and V are now calculated relative to the key
signature in effect, rather than being fixed against C major
* Notes and pitch highlights are always displayed in concert pitch, allowing
you to work with segments in many different transpositions simultaneously on
the same grid, even though they appear as completely different notes in
completely different keys in a notation view
* Cleaner interface leaves the instrument parameters in the main window, so
you have more room for editing what's important
* New pan and zoom allows you to move around quickly, and zoom the window
contents as far in or out as you like, or zoom either axis independently
* The segment changer (located with the pan and zoom controls) provides a
visual indication of which segment is currently active for editing, and allows
you to change segments without removing your right hand from your mouse
* Is is now possible to insert key changes from the matrix
* The standard matrix now allows the possibility of opening the same
segments in a percussion matrix, and vice versa
* New Pitch Bend Sequence allows you to insert a series of calculated,
machine-generated pitch bends to create a variety of vibrato effects
* Translucent event bars make it easier to see and work with overlapping
notes
==== Audio ====
* If the JACK audio server is not already running, Rosegarden will start it
for you transparently
* If you attempt to record to a document named "Untitled" you will be
prompted to name your composition before continuing, so as to promote better
housekeeping over time
* New controls available from the main window and the audio mixer allow you
to give audio and synth plugin instruments (eg. "Audio #3" or "Synth #5")
custom names
* When recording, the composition title and custom audio instrument name (if
provided) are used in the filename in order to make it much easier to work
with recorded audio files outside of their original context. Instead of
**rg-20091123-102030-1.wav** you can now have something like **rg-[Jam Session
12]-[Bobs_Guitar]-2009-11-23_10.20.30-1.wav**

==== Bug Fixes ====
* The project packager can now handle spaces in paths and filenames
* Faders can now be moved in both directions with the mouse scroll wheel
* Corrected LilyPond export of double octave clefs
* Corrected rendering problem when moving expanded-height tracks
* Controller editor dialog now keeps track of the color index properly
* Newly created knobs of color "default" now display the correct color,
rather than black
* Rosegarden no longer creates useless, confusing extra devices, which
solves many related problems
* Percussion tracks now sound when importing broken MIDI files that use
zero-length notes for percussion
* The forward and back tab navigation buttons on the MIDI mixer work
properly now
* Problems with the "trill with line" mark solved through the new
indication, which allows a trill to span multiple tied notes, and allows all
of this to export to LilyPond correctly
* Corrected export of sustain pedal notation for LilyPond 2.12
* The main window no longer expands horizontally upon loading files that
were last saved with a high level of zoom
* When grace notes occur at a height that requires ledger lines, the ledger
lines are now drawn at the correct size
* Notation staffs now respect user font configuration choices consistently
