Hello all,
Some updates are available on
<http://www.kokkinizita.net/linuxaudio/downloads>
1. libclalsadrv-2.0.0
This the the Alsa interface library used by Aeolus, Jaaa,
Japa and AMS.
The new release allows to specify separate Alsa device
names for playback, capture and control, i.e. it allows
the use of 'split' devices that may result from e.g.
combining several soundcards into one device.
The old API is still available but will be removed in
future releases.
Note that 2.0.0 is *not* binary compatible with the
previous release (hence the major version increment),
and may require a recompile of the apps using it.
There are two example programs in the 'apps' directory.
* alsa-loopback: just copies stereo input to output.
* alsa-latency: latency measurement, same algorithm
as used in jack_delay.
2. jaaa-0.6.0 and japa-0.6.0
* General cleanup, now compile without warnings using
gcc-4.4.3.
* When using Jack, a new option (-s) allows to specify
the Jack server to use.
* Require libclalsadrv-2.0.0.
* When using Alsa, two new options (-P, -C, used instead
of -d) allow to specify a split Alsa device.
* Added $(DESTDIR) to the Makefiles.
3. Aeolus-0.8.4
* Same changes as for Jaaa and Japa (except for -C, -P).
* Five new temperaments added, provided by Hanno
Hoffstadt and Adam Sampson.
Note to AMS users: if you have a binary install of AMS
make sure not to remove the current libclalsadrv. If you
have a source install, update libclalsadrv and recompile
AMS.
Ciao,

KMid is a MIDI/Karaoke player for KDE4. It runs in Linux, using the ALSA
Sequencer.
KMid plays MIDI and karaoke files to hardware MIDI devices or software
synthesizers. It supports playlists, MIDI mappers, tempo (speed), volume and
pitch (transpose) controls and configurable character encoding, font and
color for lyrics. The graphic views include a rhythm view (visual metronome),
a channels window with solo/muting controls and instrument selectors, and a
piano player window (Pianola).
Changes for this release:
* Fixed program termination, stopping active notes.
* Fixed a crash when shuffling an empty playlist.
* Fixed creation of examples and system songs bookmarks at runtime, for file
open dialog places. Bookmarks are created only when files are found.
* Fixed saving the initial MIDI connection dialog selection.
* Replaced the initial MIDI connection dialog by a new one enabling online
help access, and better design.
* The last directory used in several open/save dialogs is now saved between
sessions.
* Drumstick libraries v0.3 are required.

QjackCtl 0.3.6 - Full D-Busification!
Awe!
Times they are a-changing although Bob Dylan has no D-Business here. The
old and cutie gooey for JACK just got one turn around the verge of
bit-rotting. This time it brings full JACK D-Bus support, or almost. It
also adds D-Bus access for most GUI actions which some might find pretty
handy for keyboard shortcut binding from your desktop environment of
choice. However, if babies health is your top concern you can just turn
this D-Bus thing off and play with the old times ;) Ahem...
QjackCtl 0.3.6 is now released!
More details in the change-log, below.

Change-log:
- Make sure socket names are unique on each side of the Patchbay
(another patch from Dominic Sacre, thanks).
- A bunch of primitive D-Bus interface slots have been added, allowing
shortcut access to most of main applications actions like toggling
Messages, Status, Connections, Patchbay widget pop-ups, reset stats,
transport and so on. New bindings are given eg. via dbus-send --system /
org.rncbc.qjackctl.(main, messages, status, connections, patchbay,
setup, about, reset, rewind, backward, play, pause, forward). (from an
original idea from Sebastian Gutsfeld, thanks).
- Patchbay snapshot now tolerates JACK client port strings that have
more than one semi-colon in it, honoring just the first one exactly as
everywhere else eg. Connections. (a glitch as reported by Geoff Beasley
while using a2jmidid).
- Most modal message dialog boxes (eg. critical errors) are now replaced
by system tray icon bubble messages where available (mitigating feature
request #2936455).
- Comply with jackd >= 0.118.0 which now runs in real-time mode by
default; use of -R is now deprecated from the jackd command line
interface options; use -r to run in non-real-time-scheduling.
- A man page has beed added.
- Got rid of a pretty old and never really useful "jackd-realtime"
server path option--actually, it was only seen available on the now
defunct old Mandrake Linux distro.
- D-Bus support, as provided by org.jackaudio.service aka jackdbus, is
now being introduced and used wherever available and whenever enabled.
Configuring, starting, stopping and logging the JACK back-end server
through the "infamous" jackdbus service is now being seamlessly exploited.
- Global configuration state is now explicitly saved/committed to disk
when Setup dialog changes are accepted and applied.
- Server name command line option added (-n, --server-name).
- Single application instance restriction option added (X11).
- Setup for the netjack (slave) "net" driver has now sample-rate and
frames per buffer (period size) settings disabled and/or ignored, as
those are pretty much auto-detected by default; also, a new "netone"
backend driver option has been introduced (as suggested by Torben Hohn).
- Czech (cs) translation added (by Pavel Fric).
- Fixed some main window keyboard shortcuts. Escape key now closes
Connections, Patchbay, Status and Messages widgets as usual (bug #2871548).
- Fixed glitch on configure portaudio support, specially when the
library is not detected as available.
Cheers && Enjoy.

The CLAM project[1] is delighted to announce the long awaited 1.4.0 release of
the C++ framework for Audio and Music, code name '3D molluscs in the space'.
[1] http://clam-project.org
In summary, this long term release includes a lot of new spacialization
modules for 3D audio; MIDI, OSC and guitar effects modules; architectural
enhancements such as typed controls; nice usability features for the
NetworkEditor interface; convenience tools and scripts to make CLAM experience
better; enhanced building of LADSPA plugins and new support for LV2 and VST
plugin building; a new easy to use application to explore songs chords called
Chordata; many optimizations, bug fixing and code clean ups.
Many thanks to the people who contributed to this release, including but not
limited to the GSoC 2008 students and all the crew at Barcelona Media's Audio
Group.
Some details follow:
* Chordata is a new CLAM application which offers a user friendly way to
explore the chords of your favourite songs, using already existing technology
in the CLAM framework but with a much simpler interface. [2]
[2] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xVmkIznjUPE
* The spacialization module and helper tools, contributed by Barcelona Media
[3] audio group, turn CLAM in tandem with Blender and Ardour, into a powerful
3D audio authoring and exhibition platform.[4]
[3] http://barcelonamedia.org
[4] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KSfqJUIAiXk
* Typed controls extend CLAM with the ability to use whichever C++ type as the
message for a control. So, not just floats, but also bools, enums, integers, or
envelopes can be sent as asynchronous controls. Examples on boolean and MIDI
controls are provided.
* NetworkEditor has been ported to the QGraphicsView [5] framework. Dealing
with heavy networks such the big ones used in Barcelona Media have pushed
many usability enhancements into its interface: multi-wire dragging, wire
highlighting, default port and control actions, network and in-canvas
documentation... [6]
[5] http://doc.trolltech.com/latest/qgraphicsview.html
[6] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0kt0WDmvMwo
* It also made necessary to provide a tool such clamrefactor.py to perform
batch high level changes to clam network XML files such as renaming processing
types, ports, or configuration parameters, changing configuration values,
duplicating sets of processings, connecting them...
* Music Annotator application now is designed to aggregate several sources of
descriptors and update them after edit. Descriptors are mapped to a work
description schema that can be graphically defined. Also semantic web
descriptor sources to access webservices such as MusicBrainz have been
implemented.
You can download sources, windows, debian and ubuntu packages from the
download page[7]. Contributed binaries for other platforms are welcome.

The CLAM project is pleased to announce the first stable release of Chordata.
Chordata is a simple but powerful application that analyses the chords of any
music file in your computer. You can use it to travel back and forward the song
while watching insightful visualizations of the tonal features of the song.
Key bindings and mouse interactions for song navigation are designed thinking
in a musician with an instrument at hands.
