[LAA] Vico discontinued

by Laborejo Software Suite

Ladies and Gentlemen, hereby the Laborejo Software Suite discontinues the software Vico in its previously released version 1.2.1 It became clear that the choice of programming languages and libraries lead to grave performance problems. Combined with the fact that this is hardly a unique program, a piano roll midi sequencer, it has been decided that no further development will happen. Time and attention will be better spent on other projects. The programs source code and website entry will remain online. Greetings, Laborejo Software Suite https://www.laborejo.org

[LAA] Qtractor 0.9.16 - QStuff* Summer'20 Release batch #3

by Rui Nuno Capela

Greetings One third and last time around... Qtractor 0.9.16 (summer'20) is out! Change-log: - Experimental / High resolution plugin automation (14-bit) options is now also removed from View > Options... > Plugins dialog. - Audio Clip / Export... now takes into account custom fixed gain property (shamefully missing for the whole last decade to date). - Finally indulged on dummy LV2 plug-in CVPort support, just to avoid certain immediate and sudden crashes when inserting those kind of 'non-functional' plugins accidentally. - Bring the Track Export dialog down to Clip Merge/Export as well, for optional file type and format selection. - When enabled, do auto-save upon adding or inserting a new plugin. - Make sure LV2 plug-in UI GTK2 and X11 native support is selected first by default on top to libsuil. - Both out-of-process plugin inventory scan and LV2 Dynamic manifest options have been removed from View > Options... > Plugins dialog. - Fixed deprecated stuff on an early preparation for Qt6. Description: 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.

[LAA] Vee One Suite 0.9.16 - QStuff* Summer'20 Release batch #2

by Rui Nuno Capela

Greetings, one more time! The 'Vee One Suite' of so called 'old-school' software instruments, synthv1 [1] as a polyphonic subtractive synthesizer, samplv1 [2] a polyphonic sampler synthesizer, drumkv1 [3] as yet another drum-kit sampler and padthv1 [4] as a polyphonic additive synthesizer, are here released as the second bunch of the 'QStuff*' for the (Northern) Summer'20 season and then bumped to **version 0.9.16**. All (still) delivered in dual form: - the pure stand-alone JACK client with JACK-session [5], NSM (New Session Management [6]) and both JACK MIDI and ALSA MIDI [7] input support; - the LV2 instrument plug-in [8]. Nothing much this time around, just some janitorial nitpicking: - Fixed deprecated stuff on an early preparation for Qt6. The 'Vee One Suite' are free, open-source Linux Audio [10] software, distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL) [11] version 2 or later.

[LAA] audiowmark-0.5.0 - Audio Watermarking

by Stefan Westerfeld

Hi! audiowmark-0.5.0 is now available at https://uplex.de/audiowmark Overview of Changes in audiowmark-0.5.0: * support HTTP Live Streaming for audio/video streaming * fix floating point wav input * improve command line option handling (ArgParser) * support seeking on internal watermark state audiowmark is an open source solution (GPL3 or later) for watermarking audio files. It has many features, it is robust, fast, secure and of course we believe that the watermark is not audible for most users. The project page provides the documentation and source code as well as some audio demos, so you can check whether you hear a difference between original and watermarked files. Cu...
