spectmorph-0.6.0

by Stefan Westerfeld

spectmorph-0.6.0 has been released. The new main features are: - SpectMorph now provides a CLAP plugin. - A filter with different filter modes was added. - A new, more flexible modulation system was added. - SpectMorph now provides visual feedback for modulated parameters. Video Tutorial for 0.6.0: https://youtu.be/watch?v=scKrf0o6e6k What is SpectMorph? ------------------- SpectMorph is a free software project which allows to analyze samples of musical instruments, and to combine them (morphing). It can be used to construct hybrid sounds, for instance a sound between a trumpet and a flute; or smooth transitions, for instance a sound that starts as a trumpet and then gradually changes to a flute. SpectMorph ships with many ready-to-use instruments which can be combined using morphing. SpectMorph is implemented in C++ and licensed under the GNU LGPL version 2.1 or later Integrating SpectMorph into your Work ------------------------------------- SpectMorph is currently available for Linux, Windows and macOS (Intel and Apple Silicon), with CLAP/LV2/VST plugins. Under Linux, there is also JACK Support. Links: ------ Website: http://www.spectmorph.org Download: http://www.spectmorph.org/downloads There are many audio demos on the website, which demonstrate morphing between instruments. List of Changes in SpectMorph 0.6.0: ------------------------------------ #### New features * New, more flexible modulation system * Added filter with different filter modes * Provide visual feedback for modulated properties * Provide signed .pkg installers for macOS (Intel and ARM) #### CLAP Plugin * Provide CLAP Plugin * Support for per-voice modulation * Support timestamped modulation/automation events #### LV2 Plugin * Support LV2 on all platforms * Fix crashes triggered by Carla (absolute_path/abstract_path returning NULL) * Support newer LV2 development headers #### Minor Changes * Support "Velocity" as modulation source * Make pitch bend range configurable * New Presets with filter: "Cheese Cake Bass", "Liquid Silver" * Sort midi events by timestamp to workaround Bitwig bug * Sliders now support shift+drag for fine editing * Support for Apple Silicon * Avoid crashes if XOpenIM / XCreateIC return NULL (#15). * Fix statically linked plugin data directory location (works in flatpak apps now). * Add dockerized MXE builds for windows, bump compiler version to gcc-12. * Bump minimum C++ standard to C++17 * Fix build on RISC-V (#13) * Use GitHub CI for Linux, macOS and Windows * Change license from "LGPL v3 or later" to "LGPL v2.1 or later". * Minor fixes and cleanups #### Internals: Properties * Add generic property handling * Simplify load/save/gui for properties * Support modulatable properties using ModulationList * Add gui for editing property value and ModulationList * MorphPlan is no longer ref-counted, just one instance per Project * Introduced MorphOperatorConfig objects for cleaner/faster parameter updates #### Internals: Filter * Add two filter types: "Ladder" and "Sallen-Key" filter to output operator * Integrated PandaResampler for SIMD 4x filter oversampling * Support modulation with high time resolution for filter #### Internals: UI Toolkit * Support multiple update regions in UI toolkit * Optimize drawing for UI toolkit * Support "software sprites" for efficient visual feedback * Map Ctrl+Left Click to Right Click on macOS #### Internals: Optimizations * Pass wav set pointers (instead of strings) to morph linear/grid/source. * Avoid fmod() for phase truncation. * Build using -ffast-math * NotifyBuffer: fast dsp thread -> ui thread notifications (no malloc in dsp thread) * Avoid allocations in dsp thread in many cases (retrigger, noise decoder process) * Support optimized SIMD code on ARM (Apple Silicon), code from Peter Johnson (#11) -- Stefan Westerfeld, http://space.twc.de/~stefan

QMidiArp 0.7.0 released

by Frank Kober

Hi all, The 0.7.0 release of QMidiArp now ships with new LV2 plugin UIs based on the robtk toolkit by Robin Gareus for the first time. The UIs will get installed in parallel to the original X11 UIs that were still based on Qt. The new robtk plugin UIs are independent of Qt and do not link to system-provided libraries whose API changes frequently. For building them you need some new fellows though: glu, gl, cairo, pango and pangocairo headers are now required. The cmake or configure script will tell you. Note that with the new UIs, arpgeggiator patterns cannot be edited. But, the provided presets can of course be selected in the LV2 host. If needed you can add new patterns for the LV2 Arp module manually by editing the <lv2dir>/qmidiarp_arp.lv2/qmidiarp_arp.ttl file, presets are at the end of the file. All other modules and functions should work as before.

Rivendell v4.0.0rc3

by Fred Gleason

On behalf of the entire Rivendell development team, I'm pleased to announce the availability of the fourth release candidate for the next major version of Rivendell, v4.0.0rc3. Rivendell is a full-featured radio automation system targeted for use in professional broadcast environments. It is available under the GNU General Public License version 2.

QMidiArp 0.6.7 release

by Frank Kober

Hi all, Shortly after 0.6.6 this release corrects some issues found in the meantime mainly thanks to lv2lint and the old jack_interposer.so in the last 0.6.6 version. It also introduces a cmake build environment with the hope of making packaging easier. Enjoy Frank qmidiarp-0.6.7 (2023-04-11) New Features o Package: a cmake build environment is now available with the goal of less pain with libtool. Fixed Bugs: o fixed two small non-realtime function calls that had sneaked in last year. o fixed several lv2lint FAILS: lv2:resize extension was removed, lv2ui:qt5ui is no longer exposed, globally visible library symbols were hidden. lv2lint still reports being unable to instantiate the uis, but all tested hosts were able to do it.

Qmidiarp 0.6.6 released

by Frank Kober

Hi all, A highly overdue release of various improvements and bugfixes cumulated over the last five (!) years is finally out. The main changes are in the Global store that got some handy attributes added to the storage locations, i.e. you can now set a number of repetitions counter. You can also click on a spot within the location buttons to interrupt the automatic progression across locations temporarily. This may improve its usability a bit. Regarding LV2, there is now a X11 UI descriptor provided (thanks to Rui rncbc for a model how to do this in synthv1), but note that the qmidiarp plugins *UIs* are still not self-contained and link to the Qt5 libraries that were used for building, as long as nobody (including me) feels ready to rewrite a library-independent LV2UI for them. They were checked working nicely with qtractor, ardour 6, reaper, carla, jalv and bespoke synth locally, but be warned. The plugin dsps are, however, independent of Qt. Thanks go to Matthew McGuire for adding a phase setting to the calculated LFO waveforms and to all of you reporting bugs and suggesting features. qmidiarp-0.6.6 (2023-04-08) New Features o LFO: New control for phase of calculated waveforms (Matthew McGuire) o Global Store: Each storage location now has a "number of repetitions" property accessible through the context menu. o Global Store: Each storage location now has a "Go here and stay" storage sub-button to force remaining at that location. o ALSA MIDI: Sending MIDI Clock to a specified ALSA port is now available as a new preferences option Improvements o LFO and SEQ: More size and resolution values including odd values Although there is compatibility check in place for saved sessions, this may lead to wrong values for saved LV2 states if someone uses this at all. Long sequences only make sense for lower resolution. Drawing would not be possible with high resolutions and lengths. o SEQ: Improved display of loop marker o SEQ: Increased lower octave transpose range o Global Store: Preferences option to choose whether to store mute states o LV2: a X11 plugin UI interface is now available Fixed Bugs: o Regression: Arp strayed in notes with zero velocity o LV2: restored compatibility with suil > 0.10.2 o Crash when session managers tried to save/restore empty session o Regression with application of compact widget style o Regression when reading files with time module index -1 o Output port count could not be changed on commandline Changes: o Jack-Session support has been removed due to "official deprecation" Download https://sourceforge.net/projects/qmidiarp/files/qmidiarp/0.6.6/qmidiarp-0.6… Github https://github.com/emuse/qmidiarp Website https://qmidiarp.sourceforge.net/
