[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

[linux-audio-announce] Rivendell v0.9.79

by Fred Gleason

On behalf of the Rivendell development team, I'm pleased to announce the immediate release of Rivendell v0.9.79. 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 *** Changes: Pausing SoundPanel Buttons -- It is now possible to configure RDAirPlay so that touching a playing SoundPanel button causes the playout to pause rather than stop. This is enabled by checking the 'Enable Button Pausing' checkbox in RDAdmin->ManageHosts->RDAirPlay. Bugfixes -- Fixed a database schema problem that was causing Pre- and Post-Import lists in RDLogManager to appear empty when editing events. See the ChangeLog for further details. Library Versions: This version requires that, at a minimum, libradio-0.97.4 and librhpi-0.94.7 be installed. If installing from RPM, the version of the currently installed libraries can be determined by doing: rpm -q libradio rpm -q librhpi Database Update: This version of Rivendell uses database schema version 128, 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. Further information, screenshots and download links are available at: http://www.salemradiolabs.com/rivendell/ Cheers! |-------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Frederick F.

[linux-audio-announce] pyalsa - python midi wrappers and useful MIDI <-> alsa mixer

by Phil Frost

Quite a while ago I developed some python interfaces to the less realtime critical components of the ALSA library, including most of the MIDI and mixer interfaces. I also developed an application in Python that can bind ALSA mixer elements to MIDI CC messages. It has no GUI by design, and can send feedback as CC messages when the mixer state changes (useful if you have a MIDI control surface with motorized faders like the BCF2000). I had intended to put some polish on the thing and then announce it, but that was about a year ago and it hasn't happened, so I now announce the project at <http://bitglue.com/pyalsa>.

[linux-audio-announce] New MMA feature: melody creation

by Bob van der Poel

This is for the brave ones who like to try new things! I've been playing a bit getting MMA to auto-generate melodies. A few discussions with one enthusiastic user and some false starts later, I've come up with the idea of having a new track I've called an ARIA. Using pattern definitions, much like those used in other MMA tracks, you set a framework for MMA to generate a melody over a given set of chord changes. Honestly, this will never put a real composer out of business ... but it is fun. I've put up a skeleton version of mma-1.0-b up on http://www.mellowood.ca/mma/ Please download and give it a try. The package really does assume you know how to install things on your own, no installer. Shout if problems. And, do let me know what you think. Either via private email or on our discussion board: http://www.kara-moon.com/forum/index.php?board=21.0 -- Bob van der Poel ** Wynndel, British Columbia, CANADA ** EMAIL: bob(a)mellowood.ca WWW: http://www.mellowood.ca

[linux-audio-announce] [ANN] xjadeo-0.4.0-rc1

by Robin Gareus

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 xjadeo-0.4.0-rc1 - X Jack Video Monitor http://xjadeo.sourceforge.net/ Xjadeo is a simple movie player that synchronizes video to an external time source such as jack transport. It is intended to aid sound composition to a video clip. This is a rewrite of the previous 0.1 release and a conclusion of the ongoing development during the last year. New Features include * displays: Xv, x11+imlib2 * fullscreen and letterbox video * improved video file reading via ffmpeg * on screen display * configuration file * LASH - session management * optional GUI - qjadeo * remote control interface * Midi Time Clock quarterframe sync * documentation * OSX support (experimental) Release Notes: Mixing ffmepg and Xv may produce unexpected effects on some architectures. Please report them as those are the main reason for this release-candidate: http://xjadeo.sourceforge.net/doc/ar01s03.html#problems Although there are many new Features, only the on-screen-display might have an impact on the perfomance of xjadeo. since 0.3.13 xjadeo uses gettimeofday(3) for it's internal timekeeping. - it appears that using clock(3) was a major-bug in the original xjadeo code, though not harmful. The default xjadeo configuration is to run with a low profile: Additional Features need to be enabled explicitly (LASH is an exception). Performance highly depends on the Codec and geometry of the video file: the -K, -k arguments allow to seek many file formats - but is intended only for preview! http://xjadeo.sourceforge.net/doc/ar01s03.html#video_formats There are open ends in osX support: This version includes workarounds for use with ffmpeg on PPC. , but they might not work for all versions of ffmpeg. - Are you an intel-mac user who succeeded to run 'make test' in the ffmpeg svn src? - give us a wink :) http://packman.links2linux.org/package/xjadeo/ provides SuSE-RPMs for i586 and also for x64-64bit. many thanks! We are pleasantly surprised, since we expected serious video-Codec and xjadeo-Xv problems for 64 bit architecture. We have not tested any of the RPMs ourselves. - imlib display + mjpeg codec should work though. A beta-devel debian package can be built from source and the xjadeo.spec.in is intended for FC4 RPMs. robin /at/ gareus /dot/ org luisgarrido /at/ users /dot/ sourceforge /dot/ net -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFFb2SXeVUk8U+VK0IRAksdAJ9UzrecVjOOQuwWtCWfmh9EjggflACgga56 yTXu6ToamWx+UmNw+yyl5Dg= =HwID -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
