On behalf of the entire Rivendell development team, I'm pleased to announce the availability of the first production release of Rivendell 2.x, v2.0.1. 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 ***This is the first production release of Rivendell 2.x. All changes made since 2.0.0rc1 have involved fixes for reported bugs and improved integration with various distributions and desktop environments. See the ChangeLog for specifics. If upgrading from a v1.x version of Rivendell, be sure to read the 'UPGRADING' file before proceeding for important information. Database Update: This version of Rivendell uses database schema version 202, 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. Due to the complexity of the schema changes required for this update, the process may take significantly longer to execute than is commonly the case; users are cautioned to allow for ample time operationally. Further information, screenshots and download links are available at: http://www.rivendellaudio.org/ Cheers! |-------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Frederick F.

[LAA] CFP: Audio-graphic Modeling and Interaction @ NIME 2011, May 29 2011

by Diemo Schwarz

Call for Abstracts, please forward: Audio-graphic Modeling and Interaction Workshop @ NIME 2011, Oslo, Norway Sunday, May 29: 1PM-4PM. This workshop focuses on recent advances and future prospects in audio-graphic scenes modeling and rendering. The convergence of the audio and graphic communities is fostered by the increase in computational resources, by cognitive studies on cross-modal perception, and by the industrial needs for realistic audio scenes. Audio-graphic research is spreading in areas such as games, architecture, urbanism, information visualization, or interactive artistic digital media. We will focus on the representation, the interaction, the rendering, and the perception of scenes in which the audio and graphical components are clearly identified and combined (in contrast to standard multimedia video streams). Accepted abstracts will invited to submit an extended version to a special issue of the Springer Journal on Multimodal User Interfaces (JMUI) Detailed information about the workshop can be found here: http://www.topophonie.fr/event/1 Registration to the workshop and NIME conference can be found here: http://www.nime2011.org/registration/ Call for Abstracts ------------------ Abstracts (max. 1 A4/Letter page, 12 points, PDF format) on the topics of the workshop should be sent before April 20 to Hui Ding, LIMSI-CNRS (Hui.Ding(a)limsi.fr) The submissions will be reviewed by a program committee and accepted communications will be given at the workshop. The authors will be notified latest April 29, 2011. Important Dates --------------- * April 20, 2011: Abstract Submission Deadline * April 29, 2011: Notification of Acceptance * May 29, 2011: Workshop. Program Chairs -------------- Roland Cahen, ENSCI-les Ateliers Christian Jacquemin, LIMSI-CNRS & University Paris Sud 11 Diemo Schwarz, IRCAM Hui Ding, LIMSI-CNRS & University Paris Sud 11 Program committee ----------------- Brian Katz, LIMSI-CNRS, France Cécile Picard-Limpens, HEM, Geneva and UMONS, Belgium Lauri Savioja, Aalto University School of Science, Finland Topics in detail ---------------- Beyond the question traditionally addressed in multimedia, the workshop will cover recent advances in audio-graphic scene modeling such as: * - joint representation of sound and graphic spaces and objects, * - rendering optimization for audio-graphic scenes: level of details, o . occlusion, o . masking, o . beam and ray tracing, o . shadowing, o . space subdivision, o . collisions... * - audio-graphic interface design, * - audio-graphic for virtual humans: o . audio-visual speech, o . cloth animation and sound rendering, o . steps, o . paralinguistic communication... * - sound and graphic spatialization, * - audio-graphic object rendering, and physically and geometrically driven sound rendering, * - cross- and bi-modal perceptual evaluations, * - audio-graphic information visualization: o . distortion, o . zooming and panning, o . filtering, o . immersive rendering, o . visual data sonification, o . interaction devices... * - interactive audio-graphic arts, * - industrial audio-graphic data: o . architectural acoustics, o . sound maps, o . urban soundscapes... * - platforms and tools for audio-graphic scene modeling and rendering, These areas are interdisciplinary in nature and inter-related. New advancements in each area will benefit the others. This workshop should attract young and senior researchers, artists, and corporates in the related fields together to exchange the latest developments and to point out current challenges and new directions. tags NIME, oslo, conference, workshop

[LAA] [ANN] zynjacku-6

by Nedko Arnaudov

In this release: * Fixes and improvements that improve interoperability with these plugins: * The Composite Sampler * EQ10Q * Calf * Support the new dynamic manifest extension and thus NASPRO 0.2.90 * It is now possible to supply on commandline a regular expression instead of URI. The regexp must match only one URI. * Plugin GUI windows now have WM_WINDOW_ROLE set to "plugin_ui" (for WM kludges etc) * Various improvements in lv2 turtle rdf parsing * A commandline parsing bug that prevented use of state file is fixed * Better reporting and handling of ttl syntax errors * The plugin scanner got some speed an memory optimizations * It is now possible to build and use zynjacku on MacOSX * Windows of the generic GUIs are now smaller when the plugin is not dynparam one * The Author column is now named Maintainer to better match doap:maintainer semantics * Change installation layout to better suit Debian and hopefully other distros as well * In single plugin mode, exit if UI show failed * Properly handle scan when there are no lv2 plugins installed (patch by Orcan Ogetbil) https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=551480 * Fix syntax error exception. #15558 * When rack was being cleared, some plugin UI windows were not being closed. This bug was fixed. zynjacku is JACK based, GTK (2.x) host for LV2 synths. It has one JACK MIDI input port (routed to all hosted synths) and one (two for stereo synths) JACK audio output port per plugin. Such design provides multi-timbral sound by running several synth plugins. zynjacku is a nunchaku weapon for JACK audio synthesis. You have solid parts for synthesis itself and you have flexible part that allows synthesis to suit your needs. lv2rack is a host for LV2 effect plugins.

[LAA] [ann] CAPS 0.4.5

by Tim Goetze

The C* Audio Plugin Suite reaches version 0.4.5. http://quitte.de/dsp/caps.html http://quitte.de/dsp/caps_0.4.5.tar.gz CAPS is a collection of refined LADSPA units covering a wide range of applications, from stompbox classics to experimental oscillators. CAPS is distributed as open source under the terms of the GNU Public License. -*- This release brings a new plugin, "Narrower", which reduces the perceived width of a stereophonic image. Frequent users of headphones will appreciate the increased subtlety of the listening experience as well as the reduced fatigue caused by "superstereo" recordings. Other than that, some minor bugs have been fixed and the accompanying PDF data sheet has been improved (frequency response plots now use log scale: http://quitte.de/dsp/caps-0.4.5.pdf ). The build configuration tool "configure.py" has been modified to handle python3's errant ways in graceful manner. Upgrading is recommended unless you have no need for the new plugin and the current version is working fine for you. -*- Enjoy, and thank you for using CAPS, Tim
