[LAA] ZynAddSubFX 3.0.6-rc1 Release

by Mark McCurry

Hello Linux Audio world, It's been a while since the last Zyn release and what better time to have another than alongside the other quarterly releases. The 3.0.6 release of the Zyn synthesizer is well overdue at this point, but for the moment this is going to be the first release candidate while some additional QA work is done to tidy things up for a proper release. So, what's new with Zyn since the 3.0.5 release? Well, there's some enhancements to show off internal waveforms via oscilloscope like probes, there's progress in the area of adding additional antialiasing to base oscillators, repeatable envelopes, smoother amplitude and filter parameter transitions, and more. In terms of bugs a few excessive volume bugs were tracked down, a couple of crashes were resolved, and even a compiler bug was identified which resulted in some long needed workarounds. As this is a release candidate, some of the full release rigor has been skipped, but everything should be back to normal for the full release. For the time being just check out the 3.0.6-rc1 tag in: The Zyn core/backend: www.github.com/zynaddsubfx/zynaddsubfx The Zyn-Fusion GUI: www.github.com/mruby-zest/mruby-zest-build As always the project can be reached via the zynaddsubfx-user mailing list, the ##zynaddsubfx IRC channel on freenode, and the bug tracker (www.github.com/zynaddsubfx/zyn-fusion-issues) Happy Hacking, --Mark

[LAA] New releases: ardour2fxp 0.2.0 - jack-matchmaker 0.9.0 - jack-select 1.5.1 - midiomatic 0.2.0

by Christopher Arndt

Hello FLOSS audio people! I'm proud to announce new releases of: * ardour2fxp 0.2.0 Convert between Ardour XML and binary FXP VST2 preset files https://github.com/SpotlightKid/ardour2fxp * jack-matchmaker 0.9.0 Auto-connect new JACK ports matching patterns https://github.com/SpotlightKid/jack-matchmaker * jack-select 1.5.1 Systray app for changing JACK D-BUS config using QjackCtl presets https://github.com/SpotlightKid/jack-select * midomatic 0.2.0 A collection of MIDI filter, generator and processor plugins https://github.com/SpotlightKid/midiomatic ## ardour2fxp 0.2.0 https://github.com/SpotlightKid/ardour2fxp/releases/tag/0.2.0 ### Overview: Convert between Ardour XML and binary FXP VST2 preset files The ardour2fxp script converts Ardour VST2 preset XML files to FXP preset files, so the presets can be imported when using the plug-in in another DAW. The fxp2ardour script converts FXP preset files to Ardour VST2 preset XML files. FXB preset bank files are currently not supported. ### What's new: Features: * Added new command line options to append or merge FXP presets (in)to an existing Ardour VST presets file. Enhancements: * Improved command line and error handling and related help or error messages. * Improved usage description in README. Project: * Added flake8 linter configuration in setup.cfg * Added more tests and test data and made the tests more resistant against output formatting changes variances. * Updated readme badges to us shields.io (badge.kloud51.com MIA) * Updated supported Python version to 3.6 - 3.9. ## jack-matchmaker 0.9.0 https://github.com/SpotlightKid/jack-matchmaker/releases/tag/0.9.0 ### Overview: jack-matchmaker is a small command line utility that listens to port registrations by JACK clients and connects these ports when their names match one of the port pattern pairs given on the command line or in a pattern file at startup. ### What's new: Enhancements: * Added support for the reload action to the jack-matchmaker systemd service, which triggers re-reading of the pattern file (thanks to BlueMax). Changes: * Dropped official support for Python 3.5 and declared support for Python 3.9. Incremented the minor version accordingly. ## jack-select 1.5.1 https://github.com/SpotlightKid/jack-select/releases/tag/1.5.1 ### Overview This application displays an icon in the system tray (also known as notification area) of your desktop, which shows the status of the JACK audio server and when you click on it, a menu pops up, which lets you quickly select from the JACK configuration presets you created with QjackCtl. When you select a preset, its JACK engine and driver configuration settings are loaded via DBus into JACK and then the server is restarted. This allows you to switch between different audio setups with just two mouse clicks. ### What's new: Changes: * Gracefully handle when the JACK D-BUS service vanishes (e.g. caused by running jack_control exit) and re-connect on-demand. * Updated copyright year in readme, man page and license. * Removed Python 3.5 support, added 3.9. ## midiomatic 0.2.0 https://github.com/SpotlightKid/midiomatic/releases/tag/v0.2.0 ## Overview: A collection of MIDI filter, generator and processor plugins in LV2 and VST2 format. * MIDI CC Map X4 - Map a single input CC to up to four output CCs. * MIDI CC Recorder - Store received Control Change messages and replay them when. triggered. * MIDI CC to Pressure - Convert Control Change messages into (monophonic) Channel Pressure (Aftertouch). * MIDI PB to CC - Convert Pitch Bend into Control Change messages. * MIDI Pressure to CC - Convert (monophonic) Channel Pressure (Aftertouch) into Control Change messages. * MIDI Sys Filter - Filter out MIDI System Messages. ### What's new: Features: * Added MIDIPresuureToCC plugin to turn aftertouch into CC (contributed by Jorik Jinker). * Added MIDICCToPressure plugin to turn a CC into aftertouch. * Added MIDICCMAPX4 plugin to turn a CC into up to four others. * MIDICCRecorder: added support for activating send trigger by Program Change MIDI message. * MIDICCRecorder: added support for activating send trigger by transport start. * MIDIPBToCC: added 'Modulation +' preset. Fixes: * MIDIPBToCC: fixed sign of default 'pb_max' parameter value. * Several small readme corrections. Changes: * MIDICCRecorder: tweaked some parameter labels and LV2 symbols. * MIDICCRecorder is considered beta quality. * Moved plugin descriptions and screenshots from readme into separate document. * Updated plugin descriptions, screenshots and authors section in readme. * Updated dpf git submodule to commit 27d3046.

[LAA] Kickmess 0.2.1 - First official release

by Weird Constructor

Hi! I finally released my first (VST) plugin synthesizer. Kickmess is a kick drum synthesizer. It is a port of the easy to use and good sounding Kicker plugin from LMMS to a reusable audio plugin format on Linux (VST currently). The DSP code has been ported and also changed, that means an accurate reimplementation of Kicker is out of scope. Features: * Sine oscillator * Noise oscillator * Pitch and amplitude envelopes with configurable exponential slope * Pitch from MIDI note * Simple Distortion effect You find the Rust sources and binaries for Linux and Windows on GitHub: * Project website: https://github.com/WeirdConstructor/Kickmess * Release: https://github.com/WeirdConstructor/Kickmess/releases/tag/v0.2.1 More features and changes might be added and before Version 1.0 is released. I can't guarantee that your presets will sound the same. After Version 1.0 significant changes will come with a change in the major version number. It's not just a port from LMMS to VST, but also a port from C++ to Rust. Writing DSP code in Rust is really nice and straightforward. Most work was developing the GUI, as it required lots of experimentation, testing and debugging in the graphics and window libraries. But Rust is finally there and the boring plumbing and GUI work on this plugin is finished. Greetings and have a nice day! Weird Constructor
