[linux-audio-announce] [ANN] rtsynth 1.9.5 alsa+jack (x86 binaries only)

by Stefan Nitschke

I am happy that i can announce a new version of RTSynth for both ALSA and jack available at www.linux-sound.org/rtsynth Please note: This is (as usual) a binary distribution for x86 systems only. Recent changes: - Fixed a bug with real time scheduling on newer Linux kernels (2.6.x). - Jack version: Added support for dynamically loadable jack driver module. Full source code of the module is provided. - Added new command line option "-p" or "--polyvoice". If this option is given RTSynth will use 3 oscillator/filter units per midi note. This results in somewhat smoother but not necessarily better sounds. merry Xmas, Stefan _________________________________________________________________ Don't just search. Find.

[linux-audio-announce] [ANN] das_watchdog V0.2.5 and jack_capture V0.9.3

by Kjetil Svalastog Matheussen

Download from http://www.notam02.no/arkiv/src/ das_watchdog 0.2.5 ================== Whenever a program locks up the machine, das_watchdog will temporarily sets all realtime process to non-realtime for 8 seconds. You will get an xmessage window up on the screen whenever that happens. Changes 0.2.4->0.2.5 -------------------- *Let the test thread run with SCHED_FIFO priority using the lowest priority. Should hopefully stop all the unnecessary reports. (This change has been tested quite thoroughly) jack_capture v0.9.3 =================== jack_capture is a program for recording soundfiles with jack. Its default operation is to capture whatever sound is going out to your speakers into a file. This is the program I always wanted to have for jack, but no one made. So here it is. Note: Anyone using 0.9.2 should upgrade to 0.9.3! 0.9.2 will most likely hang during startup. :-( (I'm going to start testing my software before releasing from now on, this one was very embarrasing.) Distros: If there is a system for doing so, you should mark 0.9.2 as unusable. Changes 0.3.9 -> 0.9.3 ----------------------- *Fixed horrible deadlock in 0.9.2. Bug found by Ken Restivo. *Fix for a potensional deadlock. *Added the --silent/-s argument. *Some smaller fixes. *If recording to wav (the default) and the the 4GB limitation is reached, automatically close the file and continue writing to a new file with an autogenerated name. *Added the --version/-v argument. *Changed default number of zeros in the autogenerated filename to 1. *Better error output. *Autogenerate code to check if various formats are supported by sndlibfile. *Bumped version up to 0.9. jack_capture should reach a 1.0 state quite soon. *Changed the name of --recording-time to --duration to match -d.

[linux-audio-announce] [ANN] Ecasound 2.4.5 released

by Kai Vehmanen

Hello all, Ecasound 2.4.5 has been released! Releases notes follow: 1. Summary of changes --------------------- Native support for FLAC files has been added using the sndfile library. New debugging tools for ecasound scripting and ECI applicatin development have been added. Bugs related to ecasound process return values, memory corruption in ECI apps, handling of 24/32bit big-endian audio files, robustness of mp3/ogg/flac/aac support, managing loop devices, parsing user input, and build errors on cygwin, have been fixed. A set of new processing ops for channel routing and mixing has been added. 2. What is Ecasound? -------------------- Ecasound is a software package designed for multitrack audio processing. It can be used for simple tasks like audio playback, recording and format conversions, as well as for multitrack effect processing, mixing, recording and signal recycling. Ecasound supports a wide range of audio inputs, outputs and effect algorithms. Effects and audio objects can be combined in various ways, and their parameters can be controlled by operator objects like oscillators and MIDI-CCs. A versatile console mode user-interface is included in the package. Primary platform for running Ecasound is GNU/Linux. Ecasound can also be run on many UNIX-derived systems such as FreeBSD, Mac OS X and Solaris. Limited support for Windows is available through Cygwin. Ecasound is licensed under the GPL. The Ecasound Control Interface (ECI) is licensed under the LGPL. 3. Changes since last release ----------------------------- * Full read/write support for flac files with support for seeking. Requires libsndfile 1.0.12 or newer. * Some bugs in setting the ecasound return value have been fixed. Ecasound now properly signals errors like insufficient write permissions, or running out of storage space during processing, via non-zero return values. The possible return values are now also documented in ecasound(1). * A new debugging mechanism controlled by ECASOUND_LOGFILE and ECASOUND_LOGLEVEL environment variables. This is meant especially for debugging ECI applications, and scripted uses of ecasound. You can test this for instance by issuing: sh> ECASOUND_LOGLEVEL=ecalog.txt ecaplay *.wav And look at 'ecalog.txt' afterwards. This mechanism for ECI debugging really should have been there from the start. See ecasound(1) for more details. * A set of new audio operators have been added for channel routing/mixing: -chcopy (alias for -erc), -chmove, -chmute and -chmix (alias for -erm). See the full documentation in ecasound(1). * The in-tree sources for readline-4.0 have been removed from the package. Originally, some time around 1999, readline was included to the package due to numerous problems with Linux distros of the time that came with old versions of readline. This however no longer is the case. Nowadays, pretty much all non-ancient systems have at least readline-4.0, and most have already readline-5.0. Ancient machines are however still supported. To this end, ecasound now provides an option to compile with readline disabled. * Various bugfixes including: severe memory handling error in ECI C implementation, bugs in processing 24/32bit big-endian audio files, problems with interactive mode commands operating on controllers, handling loop devices when saving chainsetup state, batch processing of setups with mp3/ogg/flac/aac outputs, build errors on cygwin, ... * Sourceforge.net bug items affected: #1415814, #1531042, #1456510 Full list of changes is available at: - http://www.eca.cx/ecasound/history.php 4. Interface and configuration file changes ------------------------------------------- None in this release. 5. Contributors to this release ------------------------------- Patches - Accepted code, documentation and build system changes * Stuart Allie (2) Segfaults in processing 'ctrlp-*' commands. Problem in saving chainsetups with loop devices. * Pedro Antonio Fructuoso Merino (2) Patch to fix segfault when parsing escaped user input. Patch to fix audible glitches from loop devices when seeking. * Aaron Heller (1) Patch to fix bugs in big-endian support. * Chris Head (1) Patch to ecasignalview build errors on cygwin. Bug Hunting - Reports that led to bugfixes (items closed) * Zrajm Akfohg (1) Bug in ecasound process return values. * Florian Ladstaedter (1) Invalid headers in created flac files. * Pedro Antonio Fructuoso Merino (1) Seg.fault when removing loop devices. * Koen (kbr at patat dot .org) (1) Segfault when parsing escaped user input. * Kurt Konolige (1) Bug with 'rw 0'. * Brad Bowman, Stuart Allie, Joel Roth (1) Severe memory handling bug in libecasoundc (ECI C API) 6.

[linux-audio-announce] CLAM 0.95 released

by Pau Arumi

(small image attached) After several months without a stable release but lots of development activity, we are pleased to announce CLAM 0.95 CLAM (http://clam.iua.upf.edu) is a C++ framework for doing research and app development in audio and music. It comes with a set of applications ready-to-use. Most important in this release is NetworkEditor 0.4, with a radically reworked UI based on Qt4.2, lots of work on stability and usability, and new visual-prototyping features. You can visually prototype standalone apps (or audio plugins): Edit audio networks with NetworkEditor, then edit its UI using Qt Designer and CLAM widgets plugins. Finally, Prototyper let you run the audio network with its UI. This is better shown in this quick tutorial: http://iua-share.upf.es/wikis/clam/index.php/Network_Editor_tutorial This release comes with many new processings, mostly spectral transformations. But we want to highlight the tonal-analysis which does chords identification at real-time, and its related visualizations. This code is based on the work done by researchers at Queen Mary University (London) and Universitat Pompeu Fabra (Barcelona). More credits are in the About box. These and many other improvements can be found in the ChangeLog: http://clam.iua.upf.edu/ChangeLog.txt This release brings new packages for Linux (Debian sid, Ubuntu edgy) and Windows installers. In Linux, you can simply add new sources to /etc/apt/sources.list deb http://clam.iua.upf.edu/download/linux-debian-sid ./ deb http://clam.iua.upf.edu/download/linux-ubuntu-edgly ./ Both Linux and Windows comes with desktop integration and several examples ready to use. Mac OSX packages will be catching up next weeks. Bug reports and any feedback is very welcomed (and needed). The CLAM team -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

[linux-audio-announce] [ann] pnpd-0.00.2

by Tim Blechmann

hi all, (sorry for cross-posting) i'd like to announce the first release of pnpd, that's actually usable for audio synthesis. as i was able to use it in a concert last week, i consider it as reasonably stable, however, it's still in an early stage of development. pnpd is a new computer music system. it's based on a dataflow syntax, that is closely related to pd or max/msp, although it introduces some new concepts. at the moment, it doesn't contain a graphic user interface, but a text-based patcher language. it can be controlled via osc and support audio i/o via portaudio, the dsp backend is highly optimized for performance, especially for cpus supporting sse instructions. at the moment, it's not documented very well, however, there are a few test patches to describe the patcher language. the basic procedure is writing a patcher file, compiling it into the xml file for pnpd an loading that into the command line interpreter. it's still alpha software, but it's important that it's getting used to find bugs/problems. website: https://tim.klingt.org/pnpd mailinglist: https://tim.klingt.org/pnpd/community/pnpd-dev-list tarball: https://tim.klingt.org/pnpd/download/releases/pnpd-0.00.2.tar.bz2 atm, it's only tested under linux, but it shouldn't be hard, to port it to windos or osx. cheers ... tim -- tim(a)klingt.org ICQ: 96771783 http://www.mokabar.tk You can play a shoestring if you're sincere John Coltrane

[linux-audio-announce] Reminder::Linux Audio Conference #5 (LAC2007): Call for Papers - Music

by nescivi

Dear all, this is the second call for papers for the 5th Linux Audio Developers Conference (LAC2007). This is a reminder since some people might not have received the last call or might just have forgotten about the deadlines by now (08 Jan 2007 : Deadline for submission of papers, worshops, tutorials, demos, hands on demos and music). The conference is organized by the TU-Berlin in cooperation with people of the Linux Audio Developers mailing list, the music festival Inventionen 2007 and the Humboldt University of Berlin. The LAC2007 is taking place at the TU-Berlin, Germany from the 22nd - 25th of March 2007. We have introduced some new tracks. Besides the category for papers, demos and workshops, calls for tutorials and hands on demos have been added. The tutorials aim is to give new (potential) users an overview of the possibilities of Linux Audio Software and how to get started. The LAC2007 provides a computer pool (LA Pool) where developers can give an introduction to their software and where participants can try out Linux Audio Software during the conference. This has been combined in the call hands on demos. Since the TU-Berlin is installing a new Wave Field Synthesis (WFS) system the call for music has been extended by a call for compositions for this system. Music that can be used for radio airplay can be submitted, and will after acceptance by the Campusradio of the TU Berlin, be played during the conference. More detailed Information can be found in the 'Call for Papers' attached to this email or on the website at: www.lac.tu-berlin.de We are looking forward to many interesting submissions for the Linux Audio Conference 2007 and hope to see you in Berlin in 2007! Please feel free to forward this email to anybody who is interested. On behalf of the LAC2007 organisation team, Marije Baalman and Simon Schampijer
