Hi all,
I just realized that I have never properly announced midifilter.lv2,
so here it goes:
midifilter.lv2 are a collection of LV2 plugins to filter MIDI events
released in terms of the GPLv2.
The source-code can be found at
https://github.com/x42/midifilter.lv2
Thanks for Jaromír Mikeš they are available in debian (and derived
distributions) in the 'x42-plugins' package.
Kudos to Thomas Brand who started documenting them at
http://gareus.org/oss/lv2/midifilter - much of the documentation has
meanwhile been integrated into the plugins themselves and is displayed
by LV2-hosts who support built-in doc.
So far it features 23 filters:
* Channel Filter -- discard messages per Channel
* Channel Map -- map any MIDI-channel to another MIDI-channel
* Enforce Scale -- force midi notes on given musical scale
* Eventblocker -- notch style message filter.
* Keyrange -- discard notes-on/off events outside an give range
* Keysplit -- change midi-channel number depending on note
(and optionally transpose)
* Mapscale -- flexible 12-tone map
* Chord -- harmonizer - create chords from a single note in a given
musical scale
* Delay -- delay MIDI events with optional radomization
* Dup -- unisono - duplicate MIDI events from one channel to another
* Strum -- arpeggio effect intended to simulate strumming a stringed
instrument (e.g. guitar)
* Transpose -- chromatic transpose MIDI notes
* Legato -- Hold a note until the next note arrives
* NoSensing -- strip MIDI Active-Sensing events
* NoDup -- MIDI duplicate blocker. Filter out overlapping note on/off
and duplicate messages.
* NoteToggle -- toggle notes: play a note to turn it on, play it again
to turn it off.
* nTabDelay -- repeat notes N times (incl tempo-ramps)
* Passthru -- no operation (example plugin)
* Quantize -- live midi event quantization
* Velocity Randomizer -- randomly change velocity of note-on events
* Sostenuto -- delay note-off messages, emulate a piano sostenuto pedal
* Velocity Range -- filter MIDI note events according to velocity.
* Velocity Scale -- modify note velocity by constant factor and offset
As usual, any feedback is welcome.
enjoy,
robin

I'm pleased to announce the release of my debut album, Sad Pretty
Girl. I've been making music privately for a while, but this is the
first time I've published any of it. I spent the last couple of years
recording, mixing and mastering this album (engineered in stereo
compatible Ambisonics UHJ surround format).
It's been a difficult journey--spanning a decade of time, thousands of
miles, and more than a few broken hearts--and the time has come to
share it with you.
http://jonliles.bandcamp.com/album/sad-pretty-girl
----
This album was recorded and produced digitally on GNU/Linux using only
free/libre software, most of which I wrote myself
(http://non.tuxfamily.org), but also using JACK, various LADSPA
plugins, jconvolver, ambdec and other great Linux Audio tools.
Hi!
This week we talk to Jörn Nettingsmeier, aka nettings, about Ambisonics,
freelancing as an audio engineer using Linux, and much more!
Thank you very much Jörn for participating. You can find the interview
here: http://www.zthmusic.com/nettings/
All the best,
Gabriel/zth
On behalf of the entire Rivendell development team, I'm pleased to announce the availability of Rivendell v2.5.3. Rivendell is a full-featured radio automation system targeted for use in professional broadcast environments. It is available under the GNU General Public License.
From the NEWS file:
*** snip snip ***
If upgrading from a v1.x version of Rivendell, be sure to read the
'UPGRADING' file before proceeding for important information.
Changes:
Multitrack Rip Support. It is now possible to rip multiple CD tracks
into a single cut using the single cut ripper in RDLibrary.
RDCartSlot Enhancements. It is now possible to set custom 'one off'
Start and End cuepoints for events.
Spinitron Integration. A 'spinitron_plus' RLM has been added that can
be used to log PAD data to the Spinitron playlist service
(http://www.spinitron.com), as well as a cart data export that can be
used to populate Spinitron MusicDB libraries. See the Spinitron
'Automation Integration' document for details.
Multiple bug fixes. See the ChangeLog for details.
Database Update:
This version of Rivendell uses database schema version 220, and will
automatically upgrade any earlier versions. To see the current schema
version prior to upgrade, see RDAdmin->SystemInfo.
As always, be sure to run RDAdmin immediately after upgrading to allow
any necessary changes to the database schema to be applied.

Audiality 2 is now hosted on GitHub!
------------------------------------
Figured it's about time to make an announcement,
now that it's been on there for a few weeks... ;-)
Overview:
Audiality 2 is a realtime audio and music engine,
primarily intended for video games. While it
supports traditional sample playback as well as
additive, subtractive and granular synthesis, the
distinctive feature is subsample accurate realtime
scripting.
Some of the changes since 1.9.0:
* Subvoice spawn and event timing fixed - now truly
subsample accurate! (For granular synthesis etc.)
* Added generic stream API for wave uploading,
audio streaming etc.
* 'filter12' no longer blows up at high cutoffs.
* 'filter12' supports 2 channels/dual channel mode.
* More accurate pitch control in 'wtosc'.
* More logical unit autowiring: Now wires outputs
to any inputs down the chain by default; not just
the next unit.
* 'run' statement removed.
* Comma as a statement delimiter now deprecated.
Next few upcoming changes:
* Command line player.
* Boolean and comparison operators.
* Normalize, crossfade and reverse mix processing
for wave uploads.
* Render-to-wave, for creating complex waves.
* Buffered taps/inserts, for easy implementation of
GUI oscilloscopes and the like without realtime
callbacks.

Hello again!
New week, new interview!

As falling leaves drift by the window, and without any further ado:
Qtractor 0.5.11 (lima oscar) is now released!
Soon we'll hear a new winter's song. This code-naming series, which
started on a sunny summer day two years ago as TYOQA, is now converging
to an end. It will be no surprise for some that today's release precedes
the very last one on that series. So let's get those autumn leaves
falling and grab them while they're crispy red and gold ;)
Release highlights:
* Extended automation curve editing (NEW)
* Extended clip selection (NEW)
* LV2 UI resize feature support (NEW)
* Aux-sends to audio buses (FIX)
* MIDI editor overlapped event velocity/value (FIX)
* Accidental export muting and/or freezing (FIX)

Change-log:
- Adding a track now inserts it after the current one, if any; one can
also drag and move a track below the last one in the track list (main
view left pane).
- Extended Edit/Select Mode/Automation: multi-selection mode, cut, copy,
paste and delete of current track's automation curve nodes, now reached
implementation ready status.
- Another old silent bug bites the dust: changing track names were
dropping any track gain/volume and panning automation curves when saving
the session.
- A primeval processing bug has been sorted out: aux-sends to audio
output buses that just appear to be after the input bus where they're
inserted were being left muted and silent (on a ticket follow-up by
Holger Marzen, thanks).
- Fixed a sure crash bug exposed when processing of aux-send plugins
when inserted too early on audio input buses chain (after a ticket
report by Holger Marzen, thanks).
- Allow the build system to include an user specified CFLAGS (patch by
Cristian Morales Vega, thanks).
- Shift/Ctrl keyboard modifiers now set to extend current clip selection
while in main track view's Edit/Select Mode/Range, Rectangle modes.
- Main Edit/Select Mode/Automation icon retouched to look a bit more
obvious and intuitive, hopefully ;)
- Allow to change the velocities/values of the current selected events
which have the exact same onset times and hide beyhond each other on the
MIDI clip editor's pane below the main view piano-roll (ie. the one that
represents MIDI event values as a bar chart).
- Fixed some problematic playback/export muting and annoying cleanup
freezing, due on audio tracks with too many clips eg. more than hundred
clip splits (hopefully fixes an issue reported by Louigi Verona, thanks).
- LV2 UI resize feature support/control added.
- Fixed dedicated MIDI control and MIDI metronome port connection
restore conflict (thanks to jhammen catch & patch:).
- New user preference option added: reverse middle-button role to
Shift/Ctrl keyboard state, in special regard to edit-head/tail vs.
play-head positioning while on the main track and MIDI clip editor (aka.
piano-roll) views.
