[LAA] Qtractor 1.5.2 - A New-Year'25 Release

by Rui Nuno Capela

Greetings, Qtractor 1.5.2 (new-year'25) released! Change-log: - Duplex MIDI Clock mode is not allowed anymore. - Immediate and consecutive plugin parameter changes are now merged into a single undo-able command, reflecting only the first value change in the series, dropping the previous old algorithm, which was dead wrong if not utterly defective. - Unique track names resolve to the first line only. - Help/Shortcuts... Search tool gets implemented; all changed MIDI controller shortcuts are reverted to their previous settings, when discarding or dismissing the dialog. - Fixed missing MIDI SPP in some cases. 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 1.3.0 - A New-Year'25 Release

by Rui Nuno Capela

Greetings, The 'Vee One Suite', the 'gang-of-four' '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; * padthv1 [4] a polyphonic additive synthesizer. Are here released for the New-Year'25 recycle... All still delivered in dual form: - 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]. Change-log: - Just another Vee-One's release for the New Year... - Last current element is now preserved and selected on preset and/or LV2 plug-in load (host permiting). (drumkv1 [3] only) - LV2 Plug-in: element parameters as legacy input control ports are not automatable nor addressable from the host anymore. (drumkv1 [3] only) - LV2 Plug-in: avoid making offset and loop range changes as regular parameter updates, which marked the host's state dirty (modified). (applies to samplv1 [2] and drumkv1 [3] 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. **synthv1 - an old-school polyphonic synthesizer [1] ** synthv1 1.3.0 (new-year'25) released! synthv1 is an old-school all-digital 4-oscillator subtractive polyphonic synthesizer with stereo fx.
