I'm pleased to announce the 1.1 release of xwax -- DJ software for Linux.
http://www.xwax.co.uk/http://www.xwax.co.uk/releases/xwax-1.1.tar.gz
On the surface this is a minor update, since v1.0:
* Bug fix: incorrect display of track time remaining
* Instant loading of duplicate tracks
* Optionally protect decks during playback
* Improvements to music selector
* Increase speed building look-up tables
xwax is open-source vinyl emulation software for Linux. It allows DJs and
turntablists to playback digital audio files (MP3, Ogg Vorbis, FLAC, AAC
and more), controlled using a normal pair of turntables via timecoded
vinyls.
It's designed for both beat mixing and scratch mixing. Needle drops, pitch
changes, scratching, spinbacks and rewinds are all supported, and feel
just like the audio is pressed onto the vinyl itself.
The focus is on an accurate vinyl feel which is efficient, stable and
fast.

demntia for my mom.
A $25.00 donation receives a free digital download copy of Indamixx Pro

This is really important to me and please spread the word that their is a
cure albeit a bit pricey at the moment.

Here it is, a new QMidiArp version has arrived! The main new features are JACK MIDI,
which is the default backend now, JACK Session support, and a new in-sequence loop
marker that can be used to bounce the play direction or to loop at a mouse-clicked
position in the sequence. Note that you can still get the alsa backend by starting with
qmidiarp -a .
The full list of noticeable changes is below.
Thanks again to all having reported ideas and bugs and given their support.
Masters of the step sequencer, Enjoy!

Feedback as usual to qmidiarp-devel(a)lists.sourceforge.net

New Features
o Groove functions now work for all modules, not only Arps
o Effect of groove settings is displayed in the Arp/LFO/Seq screen
o LFOs can be triggered and restarted by the keyboard
o When reducing the size of LFO waves or Sequences, the original data
is kept in memory and is also saved to the session file as a whole
o LFO and Seq play direction can now be chosen, and bouncing loops are
possible
o New user positionable loop marker in Seq module. The marker is
placed by left or right mouse click on the bottom cursor line of the
sequencer and represents an additional return/loop point. It can be
removed again by clicking in the bottom left or right area of the
Seq screen.
o Triggered one-shot play of LFO and Seqs improved
o JACK MIDI backend available. This is now default, use the -a option
for getting the ALSA backend
o JACK Session support when using JACK MIDI backend
Fixed Bugs
o A rounding error led to desync when Arps were used with groove shift
o MIDI controls for Groove did not initialize upon "New..."
o MIDI Controllers assigned to multiple destinations stopped at the
first one encountered and ignored all others
General Changes
o JACK MIDI is now the default backend, -a option enables ALSA backend
o Obsolete .qma text file import removed
New Tunestorm is happening now.

Hi all,
The programme for the SuperCollider Symposium 2012 is now out! See below.
For linux-audio people I have to admit that we clash with the Linux
Audio Conference happening in the USA :( but maybe UK or European
folks, who can't make it over there, would like to come and enjoy the
fun of our partly-linux-audio event ;)

Hi all,
As you may or may not have noticed,
linuxaudio.org was rebooted today 15:06 UTC.
The server now features shiny (faster) new virtual HDDs (with backups
and everything..). Sponsored by the Virginia Tech Department of Music
and DISIS.
Cheer a loud "Hip Hip,..." to Ico, who made it possible in the first
place and send Kudos to Brian Maloney from the vt.edu tech dept for
outstanding excellent GNU/Linux support!
All systems go.
