Hello FLOSS audio people! I'm proud to announce the new release of jack_mixer version 15! jack_mixer is a GTK+ JACK audio mixer app with a look & handling similar to hardware mixing desks. Please visit the project's homepage at rdio.space/jackmixer for more information. You can find the new release on Github at: https://github.com/jack-mixer/jack_mixer/releases/tag/release-15 **Important change:** 'jack_mixer' now uses [meson] for building and installation. See 'INSTALL.md' in the source for new build instructions. New: * A global setting for default project file path was added and can be changed in the preference dialog. The default value is '$XDG_DATA_HOME/jack_mixer' (which is normally '~/.local/share/jack_mixer'). * A "Recent projects" menu was added, to allow loading recently used / saved projects more quickly. * Direct channel output ports are now optional and can be enabled / disabled in the channel preferences dialog. * Ctrl+left-click on the mute ("M") or solo ("S") channel buttons now activates exclusive mute resp. solo. * A man page for 'jack_mixer' was added. * 'jack_mix_box' now supports the '-p|--pickup' command line option to enable MIDI pickup mode, to prevent sudden volume or balance value jumps. Fixed: * Activating the solo function on an input channel could cause its output signal be sent to the monitor outputs instead of the signal from the channel, which had monitoring activated. * Volume and balance level and mute and solo state changes originating from the UI now send the correct assigned MIDI CCs, allowing for MIDI feedback to controllers. Same for changes originating from reception of assigend MIDI CCs. * The handler for right-clicking the input channel mute/solo buttons, was accidentally removed and is now re-instated. * Creating a new output channel assigns it a randomly chosen color, which can be changed in the new channel dialog (used to work some releases ago, but was broken at some point). * The 'jack_mix_box' command line options '--help' and '--stereo' erroneously required an argument. * Saving the current project on reception of the 'SIGUSR1' signal, which is a requirement for LADISH level L1 support, was broken in version 14. * When re-ording channels via drag-and-drop, the order of the edit / remove channel menu items were not updated. * When creating an output channel, it could happen that the initial channel volume would ranmdomly be set to -inf or 0 dB, regardless of what was selected in new channel dialog. Changed: * The minimum supported Python version is now 3.6. * The 'jack_mix_box' command line usage help message was improved. * The channel strip buttons (solo, mute, etc.) now have more distinctive colors when activated or the mouse hovers over them. * The balance slider step size was increased slightly so right-clicking the slider changes the value more rapidly. * When using the "Save as..." function, 'jack_mixer' now sets the default filename and directory for file chooser to the last ones used. * A window title was added to the preferences dialog. * MIDI control for mute and solo now interprets control value 0-63 as off and 64-127 as on, instead of toggling the state on reception of any controller value. Project infrastructure and internals: * The 'jack_mixer_c' Python extension module, which was originally implemented in hand-written C code using the PYTHON C API, was replaced with the '_jack_mixer' extension module implemented in Cython, which generates the C code in '_jack_mixer.c'. * The autotools build toolchain was replaced with a build setup using meson, which improves build times and maintainability markedly. See the file 'INSTALL.md' for updated build and installation instructions. * A build option to allow buidling only 'jack_mix_box' was added ('-Dgui=disabled'). * All Python code was re-formatted with [black]. * All errors and warings reported by [flake8] were fixed or are expressively and selectively ignored. * The file 'version.py' is now generated from the version set in the project definition in the top-level 'meson.build' file, leaving this as the only place where the version number needs to be updated before a release. * The 'NEWS' file was renamed to 'CHANGELOG.md' and converted to Markdown format. This release was created by Christopher Arndt. With a contribution from Athanasios Silis. Share & enjoy! Christopher Arndt

Vee One Suite 0.9.20 - QStuff* Winter'21 Release batch #2

by Rui Nuno Capela

Hello again! The 'Vee One Suite' of '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 and again released as the second batch to the so called 'QStuff*' (boreal) Winter'21 release season. All delivered in the two usual forms: - a pure stand-alone JACK client with JACK-session [5], NSM (Non/New Session Management [6]) and both JACK MIDI and ALSA MIDI [7] input support; - a LV2 instrument plug-in [8]. Changes for this release are just a few: - When under under the NSM auspices, fix SIGTERM handler on exit and just hide the main-window on close (applies to the JACK stand-alone only). - Fixed sample loop when the DCA EG is off or disabled (applies to samplv1 [2] only). 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.

: ICAD 2021 :: Call for Submissions

by Kyla McMullen

(Apologies for cross-postings) ICAD 2021 Call for Submission of Papers and Extended Abstracts 26th International Conference on Auditory Display Virtual Conference 25-28 June 2021 https://icad2021.icad.org THEME: “SOUNDING BOARD” In addition to being part of the resonating chamber in a musical instrument, the term sounding board is also a metaphor for a channel through which ideas are discussed and disseminated. ICAD, established in 1992 has, through its 25 conference meetings, shared over 1,150 papers with the auditory display community. This year, the conference will offer itself as a sounding board for the community, allowing time to pause and reflect on the history of auditory display research, review how research has changed throughout the years, and discuss future areas of inquiry as well as how to adapt our research during these challenging times. Therefore, the ICAD 2021 committee is seeking full papers, abstracts, concert pieces, demos, installations, workshops, and tutorials from across the full spectrum of auditory display research and practice. From discussions and reflections on the history of auditory display research with a view to generating new ways of thinking about how we as practitioners should go about things, to speculative ideas or news of late-breaking work, submissions are sought across all the categories. We are particularly interested in hearing from researchers who have never considered themselves to be part of the community before, or whose work sits at the periphery of the field. Important Dates: Full Papers - March 31st Abstract Only Submissions (no paper published) - April 30th Workshops/Tutorials/Demos - April 30th Live Performances/Installations - April 30th Doctoral Consortium/Thinktank -April 30th For details on topics of interest, proposal format, submission instructions, and additional conference information please visit https://icad2021.icad.org/call-for-participation/ Papers Chairs: Areti Andreopoulou and Milena Droumeva papers(a)icad2021.icad.org Conference Chairs: Kyla McMullen and Paul Vickers chairs(a)icad2021.icad.org About ICAD: First held in 1992, ICAD is a highly interdisciplinary conference with relevance to researchers, practitioners, artists, and graduate students working with sound to convey and explore information. The conference is unique in its specific focus on auditory displays and the range of interdisciplinary issues related to their use. Like its predecessors, ICAD 2021 will be a single-track conference, open to all, with no membership or affiliation requirements. -- *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Kyla A.

QmidiCtl [5] is a MIDI remote controller application that sends MIDI data over the network, using UDP/IP multicast. Inspired by multimidicast [15] and designed to be compatible with ipMIDI [15] for Windows. QmidiCtl [5] was long ago designed for the Maemo [17] enabled handheld devices, namely the late Nokia N900 [18] and promoted to the Maemo Package [18] repositories. Nevertheless, QmidiCtl [5] may still be found effective as a regular desktop application and recently as an Android application as well.
