[ANN] guitarix-0.07.0 release 'reloaded'

by hermann

guitarix is a simple Linux Rock Guitar amplifier and is designed to achieve nice thrash/metal/rock/blues guitar sounds. Guitarix uses the Jack Audio Connection Kit as its audio backend and brings in one input and two output ports to the jack graph. Release 0.07.0 comes with a bunch of major changes : * nearly complete reworked source by Andreas Degert * amp and effect units based direct on faust expressions * all faust sources included * new accumulated tuner unit with new interface (analogue Style needle meter) * Midi controller connections could saved with in presets and/or general * a editable Midi controller map is available * new human readable preset style * knobs could be used like sliders (press ctrl + mouse-button and move the mouse horizontal, leave the ctrl and hold mouse-button for fine tune), or like real knobs (turn them around) * convolution unit based on zita-convolver is now integrated in the engine * presets could change with Midi Program Messages * I'm sure I have some things forgotten to mention here. Check out the new great sound of the faust optimized sources. To the midi learn function: a middle mouse button click on a controller pop's up a little widget, move the midi controller you will use, the controller number is shown in the widget. Press OK when you've done. That's it. By the way, a right click on a controller pop up a spinbox for direct enter the value with your keyboard. have fun ________________________________________________________________________ guitarix is licensed under the GPL. Project page with screenshots: http://guitarix.sourceforge.net/ download: http://sourceforge.net/projects/guitarix/ please report bugs or suggestions here: http://sourceforge.net/apps/phpbb/guitarix/ For capture, guitarix uses the great 'jack_capture' (version >= 0.9.30) written by Kjetil S. Matheussen. If you don't have it installed, you can look here: http://old.notam02.no/arkiv/src/?M=D For extra Impulse Responses, guitarix uses the zita-convolver library by Fons Adriaensen. If you don't have it installed, you can look here: http://www.kokkinizita.net/linuxaudio/index.html We use faust to build the amp and effects and will say thanks to : Julius Smith http://ccrma.stanford.edu/realsimple/faust/ : Albert Graef http://q-lang.sourceforge.net/examples.html#Faust : Yann Orlary http://faust.grame.fr/ For faust users : You could find the tools we use to convert (and plot) the resulting faust cpp files to the needed include format in the /guitarix/tools directory. Faust dsp files are in /guitarix/src/faust and the resulting cc files are in /guitarix/src/faust-cc As default we have disable faust for build, if you wane play with the faust expressions, simply add --faust to the ./waf configure step, then faust will be used to rebuild the included faust-cc files. regards Hermann Meyer, James Warden, Andreas Degert

Composite 0.006 Released (LV2 Sampler)

by Gabriel M. Beddingfield

In the spirit of "release early, release often," I am pleased to announce the release of Composite 0.006. This release marks the completion of the LV2 Sampler Plugin, which supports Hydrogen drum kits. STATUS ------ Composite is a project with a large vision. Here is the status of the different components: composite-gui: Alpha (i.e. "a broken version of Hydrogen") compoiste_sampler (LV2): production/stable, no GUI libTritium: Not a public API, yet. LINKS ----- Composite: http://gabe.is-a-geek.org/composite/ Plugin Docs: file:///home/gabriel/code/composite-planning/plugins/sampler/1 Tarball: http://gabe.is-a-geek.org/composite/releases/composite-0.006.tar.bz2 Git: http://gitorious.org/composite git://gitorious.org/composite/composite.git HOW TO USE THE PLUGIN --------------------- To use the plugin, you need the following: * A program (host) that loads LV2 plugins. * A MIDI controller. * An audio output device. :-) The following LV2 hosts are known to work with this plugin: Ingen http://drobilla.net/blog/software/ingen/ lv2_jack_host http://drobilla.net/software/slv2/ The following is known to _not_ work: zynjacku (Uses a different MIDI port type) If you don't have a hardware MIDI controller, I suggest using jack-keyboard (http://jack-keyboard.sourceforge.net/). The first time you run the sampler, it will create a file ~/.composite/data/presets/default.xml, which will set up presets on Bank 0 for the two default drum kits (GMkit and TR808EmulationKit). Sending MIDI PC 0 and PC 1 will switch between the two kits. See composite_sampler(1) for more information on setting up presets. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS ---------------- With this release, I would especially like to thank: Harry Van Haaren - For help with testing. This release has much more polish because of you. David Robillard - For general help with Ingen and LV2. I also stole a lot of great design ideas from Ingen. Peace, Gabriel M. Beddingfield

Updates from kokkinizita

by fons＠kokkinizita.net

Hello all, Some updates are available on <http://www.kokkinizita.net/linuxaudio/downloads> 1. libclalsadrv-2.0.0 This the the Alsa interface library used by Aeolus, Jaaa, Japa and AMS. The new release allows to specify separate Alsa device names for playback, capture and control, i.e. it allows the use of 'split' devices that may result from e.g. combining several soundcards into one device. The old API is still available but will be removed in future releases. Note that 2.0.0 is *not* binary compatible with the previous release (hence the major version increment), and may require a recompile of the apps using it. There are two example programs in the 'apps' directory. * alsa-loopback: just copies stereo input to output. * alsa-latency: latency measurement, same algorithm as used in jack_delay. 2. jaaa-0.6.0 and japa-0.6.0 * General cleanup, now compile without warnings using gcc-4.4.3. * When using Jack, a new option (-s) allows to specify the Jack server to use. * Require libclalsadrv-2.0.0. * When using Alsa, two new options (-P, -C, used instead of -d) allow to specify a split Alsa device. * Added $(DESTDIR) to the Makefiles. 3. Aeolus-0.8.4 * Same changes as for Jaaa and Japa (except for -C, -P). * Five new temperaments added, provided by Hanno Hoffstadt and Adam Sampson. Note to AMS users: if you have a binary install of AMS make sure not to remove the current libclalsadrv. If you have a source install, update libclalsadrv and recompile AMS. Ciao, -- FA O tu, che porte, correndo si ? E guerra e morte !
