Jalv 1.4.2

by David Robillard

Jalv 1.4.2 is out. Jalv is a simple but fully featured LV2 host for Jack. It runs LV2 plugins and exposes their ports as Jack ports, essentially making any LV2 plugin function as a Jack application. Download: http://download.drobilla.net/jalv-1.4.2.tar.bz2 More about Jalv: http://drobilla.net/software/jalv This version fixes some bugs, and supports plugin specified buffer sizes for advanced plugin:UI communication. Changes: * Fix crash when running "jalv" with bad command line arguments * Fix potential crash with UIs and debug printing * Fix parameter changes with Qt UI * Nicer printing of atom messages with -d * Add command-line option to control UI update frequency * Support rsz:minimumSize for atom and event ports * Fix default setting for non-sequential enumeration ports (patch from Robin Gareus) * Work around Gtk bug for labels on sliders (patch from Robin Gareus) * Upgrade to waf 1.7.11 Enjoy, -dr

Suil 0.6.14

by David Robillard

Suil 0.6.14 is out. Suil is a lightweight C library for loading and wrapping LV2 plugin UIs. Suil transparently presents UIs written in any toolkit as the desired widget type of host programs, so hosts do not have to depend on foreign toolkits. Download: http://download.drobilla.net/suil-0.6.14.tar.bz2 More about Suil: http://drobilla.net/software/suil This release fixes several bugs, and implements support for the new LV2 UI idle interface. This means UIs in e.g. X11, FLTK, OpenGL, etc. can drive their idle loop in a Gtk or Qt host without having to deal with threading issues. This functionality requires LV2 1.6.0, upgrading is recommended. The API/ABI is identical to the previous release (though more features are supported). Changes: * Print system error message if module fails to load * Lower dependency from Gtk 2.24 introduced in 0.6.12 * Add support for new LV2 idle interface * Support resizing for X11 in Gtk (patch from Robin Gareus) * Upgrade to waf 1.7.11 Enjoy, -dr

Guitarix 0.28.0 released

by Andreas Degert

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: http://guitarix.sourceforge.net/ Download Site: http://sourceforge.net/projects/guitarix/ Forum: http://guitarix.sourceforge.net/forum/ Embedded Guitarix Prototype: http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/guitarix/index.php?title=Guitarix_Emb… Please consider visiting our forum or leaving a message on guitarix-developer(a)lists.sourceforge.net if you plan to work with 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 *) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GPTHdwqG9rw

Release highlights: * Edit/Insert, Remove range options (NEW) * LV2 Dyn-manifest support (NEW) * Time, frames, BBT display option in-place menu (NEW) * Audio export track automation (FIX) * Clip/event selection clear/reset (FIX) Website: http://qtractor.sourceforge.net Project page: http://sourceforge.net/projects/qtractor Downloads: http://sourceforge.net/projects/qtractor/files - source tarball: http://downloads.sourceforge.net/qtractor/qtractor-0.5.10.tar.gz - source package (openSUSE 12.3): http://downloads.sourceforge.net/qtractor/qtractor-0.5.10-7.rncbc.suse123.s… - binary packages (openSUSE 12.3): http://downloads.sourceforge.net/qtractor/qtractor-0.5.10-7.rncbc.suse123.i… http://downloads.sourceforge.net/qtractor/qtractor-0.5.10-7.rncbc.suse123.x… - quick start guide & user manual: http://downloads.sourceforge.net/qtractor/qtractor-0.5.x-user-manual.pdf Weblog (upstream support): http://www.rncbc.org License: Qtractor is free, open-source software, distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL) version 2 or later. 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.
