The Guitarix developers proudly present
Guitarix release 0.28.0 "magic chainsaw trick" *)
Yes, we took a chainsaw, cut through the chest of Guitarix,
and... it's still alive. But now it's also 2 pieces. You can
start it (headless) on an embedded ARM system. You can start
it on your laptop and connect the user interface the the headless
instance. You can even tap on your smartphone and control
Guitarix with the web browser (or just use the tuner).
For the uninitiated, Guitarix is a tube amplifier simulation for
jack, with effect modules and an additional stereo effect chain.
Please refer to our project page for more information:

embedded Guitarix.
List of changes:
* new french translation contributed by Bajo
* new MultiBandCompressor contributed by kokoko3k
* new include BestPlugins IR-Packs I-III by David Fau Casquel
* new DigitalDelay Effect module
* the Guitarix LV2 plugins are now in the default build
(but you can configure the build with --no-lv2)
* Optimizations for embedded systems / ARM processors with NEON
* --faust-vectorize-float, --convolver-ffmpeg
* Guitarix headless mode for embedded systems (no X11 / user Interface)
* network socket based service for controlling / connecting a user
interface
* service announcement via Avahi, if available
* command line options --rpchost, --rpcport, --nogui
* the service can be started in addition to the "local" user interface
* Guitarix can now be used as a user interface connecting to a remote
instance
* no configuration needed if Avahi is available
* command line options --onlygui, --rpchost, --rpcport
* multiple user interface clients can be started
(the displays keep synchronized)
* Browser-based user interface (javascript code)
* cross platform
* usable on small devices like smartphones, and in conjunction
with an embedded device
* some features still missing (no MIDI controller connections,
no presets for single effect units, no polished appearance)
* small additional server needed (included), to translate between the
socket
based interface and WebSockets, which is what (modern) browsers
understand
* only recent browsers supported, testers needed
* released in a separate tarfile

Nothing much to say...
but anything goes, as long it goes before the proverbial midsummer
meltdown...

Change-log:
- Default drum-key note names are now properly showing on MIDI tracks
that are assigned to known drum/percussive instrument patches (eg.
SoundFont 2 (.sf2) bank 128).
- Time display format (frames, clock-time or BBT) may now be changed
from the context-menu on any time entry spin-box.
- LV2 plugin support is now tightly tied to liblilv; the same tie
applies to LV2 plugin UI support and libsuil and vice-versa.
- Mixer buses racks (ie. left/input and right/output panes) are now both
kept fixed-width when whole mixer window is resized.
- Unconditional LV2 Dyn(amic)-manifest support has been added.
- Main track-view Edit/Insert,Remove/Range dialog is now being
introduced with optional applicability to Clips, Loop, Punch in/out,
Automation, Tempo-map and/or Markers.
- New range removal editing tool, split/moving clips backward at the
specified edit-head/tail interval (Edit/Remove/Range, Track Range)--by
Tuomas Airaksinen, thanks.
- Andy Fitzsimon's original icon from opencliparts.org makes it through
as the default standard scalable format (SVG).
- Automation's back in effect on Track/Export Tracks.../Audio.
- Reversed shift/ctrl keyboard modifier roles on middle-button clicking
over the main track and MIDI clip editor views (aka. piano-roll) in
regression to original old semantics.
- Color selection actions now have a brand new palette icon.
- Make sure main track-view and MIDI clip editor selection is only
cleared on specific discrete commands.
- Try keeping the original session file in most recent files menu list,
despite current version auto-incremental backup mode is in effect.
- Fixed non-zero clip offsets upon tempo/time-scale changes.
- Some sympathy to extreme dark color (read black) schemes is now
indulged on empty backgrounds.

Hello,
I have just made the first release of ng-jackspa, a set of simple user
interfaces hosting a single LADSPA plugin; they provide JACK audio ports
for the plugin audio ports, and dynamic (interactive) setting of its
control ports. Additionally, the plugin controls can be exported to or
controlled by control voltages on standard JACK audio ports.
The interfaces provided are:
* njackspa: an ncurses visual terminal interface;
* gjackspa: a GTK+ graphical interface;
* qjackspa: a Qt 4 graphical interface;
* jackspa-cli: a stark command line interface.
A unique feature of ng-jackspa is the possibility of setting arbitrary
bounds for the UI controls (as is consistent with the LADSPA spec), so
that for example the plugin amp_mono can be set to have a gain above 1.
To my knowledge, ng-jackspa provides the only curses-like LADSPA host,
as well as the only bare command line one (ecasound being regarded as
overcomplex for hosting a single plugin).
I wrote ng-jackspa because I wanted a terminal only host like njackspa,
because I like small programs and because njackspa allows one to control
an instance of a plugin interactively from any network host without
resorting to neworked MIDI, as is outlined in the manual page examples.
For a complete description, see the online manual page at
<http://home.gna.org/ngjackspa/ng-jackspa.1.html>. ng-jackspa was
started as a fork of jackspa <http://code.google.com/p/jackspa/>.
