[LAA] Qtractor 0.9.32 - An Early-Spring'23 Release batch #3

by Rui Nuno Capela

Hi again, Qtractor 0.9.32 (early-spring'23) released! Change-log: - Downgraded JACK timebase BBT information to nominal PPQN resolution (aka. ticks-per-beat). - Make sure all previously saved connections to identical ALSA MIDI hardware devices are now discriminated and properly restored, even though the target devices have the very same name. - Fix drag'n'drop in drum mode MIDI clip editor. - Quick hack to get latency compensation when recording. - Introducing count-in to audio and MIDI metronomes: View/Options.../Audio|MIDI/Metronome/Count-in; Transport/Count-in. - Corrected MIDI metronome bar/beat note durations. - Give an early reponse upon opening any NSM session. Description: Qtractor [1] is an audio/MIDI multi-track sequencer application written in C++ with the Qt framework [2]. Target platform is Linux, where the Jack Audio Connection Kit (JACK [3]) for audio and the Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA [4]) for MIDI are the main infrastructures to evolve as a fairly-featured Linux desktop audio workstation GUI, specially dedicated to the personal home-studio.

[LAA] Vee One Suite 0.9.30 - An Early-Spring'23 Release batch #2

by Rui Nuno Capela

Hi there, The 'Vee One Suite' of 'old-school' software instruments, * synthv1 [1] as a polyphonic subtractive synthesizer; * samplv1 [2] a polyphonic sampler synthesizer; * drumkv1 [3] as yet another drum-kit sampler; * padthv1 [4] a polyphonic additive synthesizer. Are here released for this (northern) [i]Early-Spring'23[/i] season... As always, all being delivered in dual form: - a pure stand-alone JACK client with JACK-session [5], NSM (Non Session Management [6]) and both JACK MIDI and ALSA MIDI [7] input support; - a LV2 instrument plug-in [8]. A common change-log follows: - Restrict to existing named presets when adding new or editing programs; load and restore presets directly when previewing programs (cf. Configure... > Programs). - NSM open and save operation failures are now replied with an error status (was always OK before). - JACK client watchdog introduced for automatic reactivation and resilience (standalone only). - NSM announcement reply/error messages now relegated to debug builds only. The 'Vee One Suite' are free, open-source Linux Audio [10] software, distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL) [11] version 2 or later. **synthv1 - an old-school polyphonic synthesizer [1] ** synthv1 0.9.30 (early-spring'23) released! synthv1 is an old-school all-digital 4-oscillator subtractive polyphonic synthesizer with stereo fx.

[LAA] Rivendell v4.0.0rc2

by Fred Gleason

On behalf of the entire Rivendell development team, I'm pleased to announce the availability of the third release candidate for the next major version of Rivendell, v4.0.0rc2. 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. From the 'NEWS' file: *** snip snip *** Changes: Major Changes Between v3.x and v4.x: Qt Toolkit. Rivendell v4.x uses and is fully compatibile with major version 5 of Qt (Qt5). See the INSTALL documents for specifics. Date/Time Customizability. Date/Time presentation formats can now be customized on the basis of site preferences. MySQL Compatibility. Rivendell v4.x aims for full compatibility with MySQL 8.0 and earlier versions in their default installation configurations. RDAirPlay. The rdairplay(1) module has been completely overhauled, and now supports dynamic resizeability as well as a revamped level metering system. RDPanel. The rdpanel(1) module now supports dynamic resizing. RDLogManager. It is now possible to disable grid processing on a service-by-service basis, thus permitting a complete schedule to be generated by an external music scheduler. See the 'Bypassing Grid Processing' section in the 'Generating Logs and Reports with RDLogManager' section of the Operation Guide for details. Many bug and regression fixes. See the 'ChangeLog' for details. Database Update: This version of Rivendell uses database schema version 367, and will automatically upgrade any earlier versions. To see the current schema version prior to upgrade, see RDAdmin->SystemInfo. Be sure to run 'rddbmgr --modify' (as root) immediately after upgrading to allow any necessary changes to the database schema to be applied. *** snip snip *** Details and source code are available at https://github.com/ElvishArtisan/rivendell/releases <https://github.com/ElvishArtisan/rivendell/releases>. Additionally, online installers for deploying Rivendell v4.x are available for the following Linux distributions: 1) Ubuntu 22.04 “Jammy Jellyfish”: https://software.paravelsystems.com/howtos/ubuntu/jammy/ <https://software.paravelsystems.com/howtos/ubuntu/jammy/> 2) RHEL/CentOS 7: https://software.paravelsystems.com/howtos/CentOS/7rd4/ <https://software.paravelsystems.com/howtos/CentOS/7rd4/> 3) RHEL/Rocky 8: https://software.paravelsystems.com/howtos/rhel/8rd4/ <https://software.paravelsystems.com/howtos/rhel/8rd4/> If you encounter a bug or problem, please consider opening an issue report for it at: https://github.com/ElvishArtisan/rivendell/issues <https://github.com/ElvishArtisan/rivendell/issues>.

[LAA] linuxaudio.org has moved!

by Jeremy Jongepier

Dear all, After having bivouacked for five years at Fuga we had to move. The Openstack region linuxaudio.org was camping on was being phased out and even though we were offered a courteous discount to stay on Fuga it was cheaper to move to a different hosting provider. So here we are at Hetzner with two small servers, one for mail and one for the websites, and a storage box for everything we don't use that often anymore. All in all everything went way more smoothly then back in February 2018. For some services and users it was a pretty seamless operation. We are still improving some bits here and there but in general we're in pretty good shape. Biggest hurdle was migrating from Mailman2 to Mailman3 but David Runge did a great job there, many thanks David! The wiki is now running on the latest version of Dokuwiki too and the underlying OS is recent and up to date again. It could be of course that things are missing or not working properly anymore, if so then please let us know! And a big thanks to Fuga for hosting us at no extra costs for five years. With a bit of a sad heart I shut down the Openstack instances but it was time to move on. Hosting does cost a small amount now, approx. €150 a year. We'll probably put up a page somewhere to facilitate in donating or funding the hosting of linuxaudio.org. We'll keep you posted on that. Best, Jeremy

by Rui Nuno Capela

Hello again, Qtractor 0.9.31 (winter'23) is out! Change-log: - Fixed a off-by-one rounding error on MIDI clip offset and lengths that were leaving some clips unlinked on load. - LXVST_PATH environment variable now accrues to VST_PATH for Linux-native VST2 plug-ins search path and not taking over in precedence anymore. - Fixed an old mistake on custom aliased CLAP and VST3 plugin paths. Description: Qtractor [1] is an audio/MIDI multi-track sequencer application written in C++ with the Qt framework [2]. Target platform is Linux, where the Jack Audio Connection Kit (JACK [3]) for audio and the Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA [4]) for MIDI are the main infrastructures to evolve as a fairly-featured Linux desktop audio workstation GUI, specially dedicated to the personal home-studio.
