Drumstick is a set of MIDI libraries using C++/Qt5 idioms and style. Includes a C++ wrapper around the ALSA library sequencer interface: ALSA sequencer provides software support for MIDI technology on Linux. A complementary library provides classes for processing SMF (Standard MIDI files: .MID/.KAR), Cakewalk (.WRK), and Overture (.OVE) file formats. A multiplatform realtime MIDI I/O library is also provided for Linux, Windows, and Mac OSX. Changes for v1.1.0 * RT library: new backend for Linux: Sonivox EAS (grabbed from Android Open Source Project) * RT library: new backend for Mac OSX: Apple DLS Synth * RT library: two new methods to retrieve backends by name * Four utilities/examples have been removed/replaced with the corresponding unit tests * Documentation revision * Several fixes, thanks for the patches to Maximiliano Curia, Robin Lee, Heiko Becker Compilation minimum requirements for all platforms: CMake 3.0 and Qt 5.7 Copyright (C) 2009-2016, Pedro Lopez-Cabanillas License: GPL v2 or later Project web site http://sourceforge.net/projects/drumstick Online documentation http://drumstick.sourceforge.net/docs/ Downloads http://sourceforge.net/projects/drumstick/files/1.1.0/

Qtractor 0.7.9 - A Snobbier Graviton release

by Rui Nuno Capela

So it's the last equinox'16... And the last of the Qstuff* End of Summer'16 release parties [7][8]. Qtractor 0.7.9 (snobbier graviton) is now released! Release highlights: * Audio/MIDI metronome anticipatory offset (NEW) * Current clip highlighting (NEW) * SFZ sample file archive/zip bundling (NEW) * MIDI transpose Reverse tool (NEW) * MIDI (N)RPN running status and NULL support (NEW) * MIDI Controllers catch-up algorithm (FIX) * MIDI track Instrument menu (FIX) * JACK shutdown and buffer-size changes (FIX) Qtractor [1] is an audio/MIDI multi-track sequencer application written in C++ with the Qt framework [2]. Target platform is Linux, where the Jack Audio Connection Kit (JACK [3]) for audio and the Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA [4]) for MIDI are the main infrastructures to evolve as a fairly-featured Linux desktop audio workstation GUI, specially dedicated to the personal home-studio. Website: http://qtractor.sourceforge.net Project page: http://sourceforge.net/projects/qtractor Downloads: http://sourceforge.net/projects/qtractor/files - source tarball: http://download.sf.net/qtractor/qtractor-0.7.9.tar.gz - source package: http://download.sf.net/qtractor/qtractor-0.7.9-27.rncbc.suse.src.rpm - binary packages: http://download.sf.net/qtractor/qtractor-0.7.9-27.rncbc.suse.i586.rpm http://download.sf.net/qtractor/qtractor-0.7.9-27.rncbc.suse.x86_84.rpm Git repos: http://git.code.sf.net/p/qtractor/code https://github.com/rncbc/qtractor.git https://gitlab.com/rncbc/qtractor.git https://bitbucket.org/rncbc/qtractor.git Wiki (help wanted!): http://sourceforge.net/p/qtractor/wiki/ License: Qtractor [1] is free, open-source Linux Audio [5] software, distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL [6]) version 2 or later. And the boring complete change-log follows: - JACK buffer-size change handling has been deeply improved, now doing an immediate session restart, while preserving all external connections as much as possible. - Introducing an audio and MIDI metronome anticipatory offset, kind of latency compensation, to respective option settings cf. View/Options.../Audio, MIDI/Metronome/Offset (latency). - Fixed LADSPA plug-in preset switching, incidentally broken as NOP, ever since late Haziest Photon's crash-landed. - MIDI Track/Instrument cascading menus have been found empty broken on Qt5 builds, now fixed. - MIDI RPN/NRPN running status and RPN NULL reset command are now supported (input only). - Fixed a sure immediate crash on removing audio buses that are current targets of any active Aux-send inserts. - Fixed yet another old bummer that was reaping off assigned MIDI controllers on existing track's gain/volume or panning controls, when adding any single new track. - Fixed missing feedback on MIDI controllers assigned to any of monitor, record, mute and solo track/bus state buttons. - Eye-candy warning: the current clip, not necessarily the one currently selected, is now highlighted with a solid outline; linked MIDI clips are also highlighted with an alternate dashed outline. - SFZ file conversion, and bundling of the respective sample files, is now supported when saving as zip/archive (*.qtz). - Fixed track monitor, record, mute and solo dangling states, on Track/Duplicate command. - Slight regression on the LV2 State Files abstract/relative file-path mapping, trading QFileInfo::canonicalFilePath() for QFileInfo::absoluteFilePath(), and thus skipping all symlink dereferences in the process. - Fixed a one first linking/ref-counting glitch, affecting recently recorded MIDI clips which might have their initial clip length still un-quantized to MIDI resolution (BBT). - A brand new and discrete MIDI clip editor command tool has been added: MIDI Tools/Transpose/Reverse. - Discretely fixed MIDI Controllers catch-up algorithm. - Fixed a borderline mistake on plug-in parameter port index mapping to its corresponding symbolic name, especially if newer plug-in versions are loaded on older saved sessions.

spectmorph-0.3.1

by Stefan Westerfeld

spectmorph-0.3.1 has been released. Overview of Changes in spectmorph-0.3.1: ---------------------------------------- * Added plugins for LV2 and VST api. * New instruments: bassoon, cello, bass-trombone, reed-organ. * Added different templates to get standard morph plans quickly. * LV2|VST|JACK will start with default plan now (instead of empty plan). * Standard instrument set location (~/.spectmorph/instruments/standard): - plan templates can refer to instruments in that directory without storing any absolute path (index will be instruments:standard) - in almost any case, loading instruments isn't necessary anymore * Resize MorphPlanWindow automatically if operators are removed. * Changed time alignment during morphing: - morphed sounds should starty at the beginning of the note (no extra latency) - Start marker for instrument notes no longer necessary - SpectMorphDelay plugin no longer necessary * Some improvements for building new instruments: - make some smenc parameters configurable (--config option) - improvements to soundfont import - new fundamental frequency estimation for tune-all-frames - support global volume adjustment (instead of auto-volume) * Various bugfixes. What is SpectMorph? ------------------- SpectMorph is a free software project which allows to analyze samples of musical instruments, and to combine them (morphing). It can be used to construct hybrid sounds, for instance a sound between a trumpet and a flute; or smooth transitions, for instance a sound that starts as a trumpet and then gradually changes to a flute. Also interpolating between two samples of the same instrument (different attack velocity of a piano) could be interesting. SpectMorph is implemented in C++ and licensed under the GNU LGPL version 3 SpectMorph is still under development. This means: * the fileformat is not yet stable - instruments or morph plans may not work with newer versions of SpectMorph * the algorithms for synthesizing sounds are still under development - newer versions may sound different To sum it up: if you compose music using SpectMorph, don't expect newer versions to be compatible in any way. Integrating SpectMorph into your Work ------------------------------------- In order to make music that contains SpectMorph, you currently need to use Linux. There are four ways of integrating SpectMorph sounds into music you create: - LV2 Plugin, for any sequencer that supports it. - VST Plugin, especially for proprietary solutions that don't support LV2. - JACK Client. - BEAST Module, integrating into BEASTs modular environment. Links: ------ Website: http://www.spectmorph.org Download: http://www.spectmorph.org/downloads/spectmorph-0.3.1.tar.bz2 There are many sound samples on the website, which demonstrate morphing between instruments. -- Stefan Westerfeld, Hamburg/Germany, http://space.twc.de/~stefan

Yoshimi 1.4.1 - Lyrebird.

by Will Godfrey

Maybe not be the prettiest, but this bird sure knows how to create great sounds! First of all, we have a new quick guide that's in Yoshimi's 'doc' directory. It's just something to help new users get started. We've always logged warnings if it wasn't possible to run either audio or MIDI, but now we also give a GUI alert. From this version onward it is possible to autoload a default state on startup, so you have Yoshimi already configured exactly as you like, with patches loaded and part destinations set etc. To make it easier to position program change CCs in a MIDI file, there is a new option to report the time these take to load. Vector control settings are now stored in patch set and state files. We implemented a simpler way to perform channel switching so the 'current' MIDI instrument can seem to be changed instantly, but retaining the note tails of the previous one. All the usual background improvements. When installed, full details are in either: /usr/local/share/doc/yoshimi/Yoshimi_1.4.1-features.txt Or: /usr/local/share/doc/yoshimi/Yoshimi_1.4.1-features.txt To build yoshimi fetch the tarball from either: http://sourceforge.net/projects/yoshimi Or: https://github.com/Yoshimi/yoshimi Our user list archive is at: https://www.freelists.org/archive/yoshimi -- Will J Godfrey http://www.musically.me.uk Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
