[ANN] Drumstick 0.4.0 released

by Pedro Lopez-Cabanillas

Drumstick is a C++ wrapper around the ALSA library sequencer interface using Qt4 objects, idioms and style. ALSA sequencer provides software support for MIDI technology on Linux. Complementary classes for SMF and WRK file processing are also included. This library is used in KMetronome, KMidimon and KMid2, and was formerly known as "aseqmm". Changes: * New visibility attribute for all public classes allowing client programs to be compiled with hidden visibility if desired. * Better error reporting for all the utilities. * Subdirectory "tests" renamed as "utils". * Utility "smfplayer" renamed as "guiplayer" and enhanced with a new interface design and support for Cakewalk WRK files.

gst123-0.1.2

by Stefan Westerfeld

gst123-0.1.2 has been released. Overview of changes in gst123-0.1.2: ------------------------------------ * Added -a option to select audio driver (oss, alsa) and device (/dev/dsp1, hw:1) * Fix crash triggered when closing the video window (thanks Siddhesh Poyarekar) * Improved configure check (works now if ncurses headers are not in /usr/include) What is gst123? --------------- The program gst123 is designed to be a more flexible command line player in the spirit of ogg123 and mpg123, based on gstreamer. It plays all file formats gstreamer understands, so if you have a music collection which contains different file formats, like flac, ogg and mp3, you can use gst123 to play all your music files. Since gst123-0.1.0 support for watching videos has been added; however gst123 should run fine in situations where no X11 display is available; videos can be played without X11 display, too (-x, --novideo); in this case, only the audio stream will be played. It is implemented in C++ and licensed under the GNU LGPL version 2 Links: ------ Website: http://space.twc.de/~stefan/gst123.php Download: http://space.twc.de/~stefan/gst123/gst123-0.1.2.tar.bz2 -- Stefan Westerfeld, Hamburg/Germany, http://space.twc.de/~stefan

spectmorph-0.0.3

by Stefan Westerfeld

spectmorph-0.0.3 has been released. The main improvement is that the piano samples sound a lot better now, because the attack is modelled better by the SpectMorph model. Overview of Changes in spectmorph-0.0.3: ---------------------------------------- * added encoder algorithm to find attack envelope, this makes piano sound much more realistic * introduced smwavset tool, which allows managing instruments consisting of many samples - encoding/decoding a set of samples - delta operation for comparing errors of sets of samples * smextract can now provide an overview of how many bytes in an .sm file can be attributed to which fields * documentation updates * refactoring, cleanups What is SpectMorph? ------------------- SpectMorph is a free software project which allows to analyze samples of musical instruments. This should allow constructing hybrid sounds, for instance a sound between a trumpet and a flute. Also interpolating between two samples of the same instrument (different attack velocity of a piano) could be interesting. SpectMorph is implemented in C++ and licensed under the GNU LGPL version 3 SpectMorph currently is in the early stages of development, which means that it is not yet ready to be used by end users. Links: ------ Website: http://space.twc.de/~stefan/spectmorph.php Download: http://space.twc.de/~stefan/spectmorph/spectmorph-0.0.3.tar.bz2 There are sound examples on the website which demonstrate the sound quality of the current SpectMorph models using piano samples. -- Stefan Westerfeld, Hamburg/Germany, http://space.twc.de/~stefan

by Josep Andreu

Hi We are pleased to announce the release of rakarrack 0.5.8 Equinox, a summer gift. This is a major feature release, but we have also fixed many old bugs.

New Effects: Valve, Dual Flange, Ring, Exciter, Expander, DistBand, Arpie, Shuffle, Synthfilter, VaryBand, Convolotron, Looper, MuTroMojo, Echoverse, CoilCrafter, ShelfBoost, Vocoder, Sustainer, Sequence, Shifter, StompBox, Reverbtron, Echotron. New Features: Tap Tempo. Upsampling using libsamplerate by Erik de Castro Lopo. Downsample intesive CPU effects. Upsample Waveshapper. ACI Analog Control Interface.
