The first unified LV2 release, LV2 1.0.0, is out. This release merges the previous lv2core package with all the official extension packages, as well as example plugins, lv2specgen, and additional data. From a developer point of view, the biggest change is that all LV2 API headers can be used by simply checking for the single pkg-config package "lv2" (for compatibility the previous "lv2core" package is still installed). Implementations are encouraged to abandon the "copy paste headers" practice and depend on this package instead. With this release, several new extensions have become stable that together greatly increase the power of LV2: atom, log, parameters, patch, port-groups, port-props, resize-port, state, time, worker.

QMidiArp-0.5.2 released

by Frank Kober

Hi, QMidiArp 0.5.2 has just seen the light of the day. It brings mainly two improvements. One is a comeback, that of tempo changes on the fly, and that now includes also tempo changes of a potential Jack Transport master. Also the Jack Transport starting position is finally taken into account, so that QMidiArp should be in sync also when starting the transport master not at zero. The second one is Non Session Manager support, mainly thanks to the work done by Roy Vegard Ovesen! Note that for compiling in NSM support you will now need liblo as dependency. Enjoy, and enjoy LAC in Graz this year Frank ________________________________ QMidiArp is an advanced MIDI arpeggiator, programmable step sequencer and LFO. Everything is on http://qmidiarp.sourceforge.net qmidiarp-0.5.2 (2013-05-09) New Features o Tempo changes are again possible while running, both manually or by a Jack Transport Master o Jack Transport position is now taken into account when starting, QMidiArp used to start always at zero o Muting and sequencer parameter changes can be deferred to pattern end using a new toolbutton o Modules in the Global Storage window have mute/defer buttons o Global Storage location switches can be set to affect only the pattern o Non Session Manager support with "switch" capability (thanks to Roy Vegard Ovesen) General Changes o NSM support requires liblo development headers (liblo-dev package)

Jalv 1.4.2

by David Robillard

Jalv 1.4.2 is out. Jalv is a simple but fully featured LV2 host for Jack. It runs LV2 plugins and exposes their ports as Jack ports, essentially making any LV2 plugin function as a Jack application. Download: http://download.drobilla.net/jalv-1.4.2.tar.bz2 More about Jalv: http://drobilla.net/software/jalv This version fixes some bugs, and supports plugin specified buffer sizes for advanced plugin:UI communication. Changes: * Fix crash when running "jalv" with bad command line arguments * Fix potential crash with UIs and debug printing * Fix parameter changes with Qt UI * Nicer printing of atom messages with -d * Add command-line option to control UI update frequency * Support rsz:minimumSize for atom and event ports * Fix default setting for non-sequential enumeration ports (patch from Robin Gareus) * Work around Gtk bug for labels on sliders (patch from Robin Gareus) * Upgrade to waf 1.7.11 Enjoy, -dr

Suil 0.6.14

by David Robillard

Suil 0.6.14 is out. Suil is a lightweight C library for loading and wrapping LV2 plugin UIs. Suil transparently presents UIs written in any toolkit as the desired widget type of host programs, so hosts do not have to depend on foreign toolkits. Download: http://download.drobilla.net/suil-0.6.14.tar.bz2 More about Suil: http://drobilla.net/software/suil This release fixes several bugs, and implements support for the new LV2 UI idle interface. This means UIs in e.g. X11, FLTK, OpenGL, etc. can drive their idle loop in a Gtk or Qt host without having to deal with threading issues. This functionality requires LV2 1.6.0, upgrading is recommended. The API/ABI is identical to the previous release (though more features are supported). Changes: * Print system error message if module fails to load * Lower dependency from Gtk 2.24 introduced in 0.6.12 * Add support for new LV2 idle interface * Support resizing for X11 in Gtk (patch from Robin Gareus) * Upgrade to waf 1.7.11 Enjoy, -dr

Changes: * Fix port indices of metronome example. * Fix lv2specgen usage from command line. * atom: Fix crash in forge.h when pushing atoms to a full buffer. * ui: Add idle interface so native UIs and foreign toolkits can drive their event loops. * ui: Add ui:updateRate property. * Upgrade to waf 1.7.11.
