[linux-audio-announce] Qsynth 0.2.5 released!

by Rui Nuno Capela

Greetings, So here comes the time for another public release of the (cute) FluidSynth Qt Interface: Qsynth 0.2.5 is out! Just as one can read from the change log: - New dial-knob behavior now follows mouse pointer angular position, almost similar to old QDial, but this time avoiding that nasty and rather abrupt change on first mouse click. - By simple use of widget subclassing, the value/position of any dial knob can now be reset to its default or original position at any time, by simply pressing the mouse mid-button. These default value positions are just committed to current dial values when switching engines and/or closing the application. - Optional specification of alternate fluidsynth installation path has been added to configure command arguments (--with-fluidsynth). - After some source code tweaks, a win32 build is now possible (instructions will be provided on demand :) - Bank offset finally gets its due effect, while on the channels and channel preset selection dialogs. Regretfully, the soundfont bank offset feature has been lurking ever since its inception, but now its live and hopefully effective. - A new fancy widget has arrived, qsynthKnob, with some modifications to replace the actual *ugly* QDial widgets in the main window. This widget is based on a design by Thorsten Wilms, formerly implemented by Chris Cannam in Rosegarden, and finally adapted and brought to Qsynth by Pedro Lopez-Cabanillas. Thankyou all.

[linux-audio-announce] QjackCtl 0.2.20 released!

by Rui Nuno Capela

Greetings, So here comes the time for another public release of the (cute) JACK Audio Connection Kit - Qt Interface: QjackCtl 0.2.20 is out! Just as one can read from the change log: - Server path setting now accepts custom command line parameters (after a kind suggestion from Jussi Laako). - The internal XRUN callback notification statistics and reporting has been changed to be a bit less intrusive. - Patchbay socket dialog gets some more eye-candy as icons have been added to the client and plug selection (combobox) widgets. - Connections and patchbay lines coloring has changed just slightly :) - New patchbay socket forwarding feature. Any patchbay socket can now be set to have all its connections replicated (i.e. forwarded) to another one, which will behave actively as a clone of the former. Forward connections are shown by vertical directed colored lines, and can be selected either on socket dialog or from context menu (currently experimental, only applicable to input/writable sockets). - Optional specification of alternate JACK and/or ALSA installation paths on configure time (after a patch from Lucas Brasilino, thanks). Available from the usual places: http://qjackctl.sourceforge.net http://sourceforge.net/projects/qjackctl Enjoy. -- rncbc aka Rui Nuno Capela rncbc(a)rncbc.org

[linux-audio-announce] Mic-In-Room Simulator

by davidrclark＠earthlink.net

Greetings to all, Announcing grad_Boxster for creating impulse response functions (IR's) for rectangular parallelepipeds --- for example concert halls modelled as giant boxes --- but using the *gradient* of the solution field projected on a direction specified by the user, similar to the operation of a pressure-gradient microphone --- in a room. At the URL below is a link to this package for downloading as well as a NON-optimized, alternating demo of grad_Boxster versus Boxster (i.e. "ordinary stereo versus binaural" or even "speakers versus headphones"): http://home.earthlink.net/~davidrclark grad2_Boxster is also available for simulating second-order mics in rooms. Extending grad_Boxster, the gradient of the first-order projection is computed and projected onto a second direction specified by the user. By combining IR's from Boxster (pressure mic), grad_Boxster (first-order mic), and grad2_Boxster (second-order), it should be possible to simulate any type of mic setup and combination of setups in any room that could be considered to be a box. Starting with dry, monophonic recordings made in a dead room, one should be able to simulate very sophisticated mic setups in a concert hall, then assemble them into a mix, simulating an ensemble recording, all with a physically consistent model. The demo contrasts simulation of nearly coincident pressure- gradient mics (grad_Boxster) in a 12,500 m3 concert hall versus binaural omni pressure mics (Boxster, no HRTF) in the same hall with the same separation between mics for both. The only difference for the first half of the demo is whether or not the gradient is computed, yet the sounds are very different both with speakers and with headphones (esp. the latter). In the second half, the positions of the guitars are slightly different (maximal separation for either). --------------------------- In short, grad_Boxster can be used to simulate ordinary stereo recordings (Blumlein, etc.) in the same manner that Boxster can be used for simulating binaural recordings, complete with reverb, echo, stereo separation, and so on --- but with physical consistency. As a side effect, both new programs provide other "knobs" for extending sample generation capability. All programs can be run either from a PyGtk GUI or from the command line. Regards to all, Dave Dave Clark

[linux-audio-announce] FW: l.o.s.s - open source sound project

by jake harries

----Original Message----- From: Ed Carter <ed(a)lowtech.org> To: Multiple recipients of list SONICARTSNET <sonicartsnet(a)sheffield.ac.uk> Sent: Tue, 14 Feb 2006 21:40:19 GMT Subject: l.o.s.s - open source sound project [Apologies for cross-posting, please circulate where appropriate.] http://loss.access-space.org The l.o.s.s project promotes and supports the use of free, open source music software, in conjunction with Creative Commons (CC) licensing which accepts and encourages sharing. As well as a CD of curated work (also available for free download), the project's online presence is intended to become a focal point for artists working with open source software, and releasing their work through CC licenses. Please visit the website for details of how to contribute tracks. The aim of the project was not to portray any kind of 'open source' sound, but to offer an array of some of the interesting work people are creating with what is available. The result is an incredibly diverse compilation of internationally renowned artists, encompassing electronica, soundscapes, hiphop and electro-acoustic amongst other styles. Contributions for the CD include work by Nullpointer, Ava, Edge Effect, Jake Harries, Collective Motion, Panayiotis Kokoras, DJ Auto, Chaos Butterfly, Slub, Minimal Turntablist Crew and Elektronengehirn. Even the artwork was produced using open source techniques by Matt Gray (Ava), and the album was mastered at Mirror Image Studios in Minneapolis, again, using the Linux operating system and libre software. The project is run by the registered charity Access Space, a free media lab based in Sheffield, promoting open source software and using recycled hardware.

[linux-audio-announce] [ANN] E-Radium V0.61e and Das_Watchdog V0.2.0

by Kjetil S. Matheussen

Download from http://ccrma.stanford.edu/~kjetil/src/ ***************************************************** E-radium -------- E-radium is Radium and a special version of E-UAE (with support for realtime scheduling and alsa midi). Radium is a unique type of music event editor made to be efficient and give all sorts of possibilities. The user interface is inspired by trackers, but Radium is generally a lot more versatile and can be used for all kind of genres. http://www.notam02.no/radium/ Warning: E-radium does not seem to work on 64bit machines. :-( Changes 0.61d->0.61e -------------------- -Run XInitThreads(). Should fix e-radium in case you got xlib async errors. (Fix for SMP machines) **************************************************** Das_Watchdog ------------ Das_Watchdog is a general watchdog for the linux operating system that should be run in the background at all times to ensure a realtime process won't hang the machine. Changes 0.1.2->0.2.0 --------------------- * Don't do anything if no process priorities are changed, when watchdogging. * Added the --force option, that sets the priority of all timer processes to FIFO/99. * Added the das_watchdog /etc/init.d script provided by Stefan Kersten. (das_watchdog.rc) * Added the --verbose option. * Check that its the same process when setting back old priority. * Don't set back to old priority if the priority has been changed in the mean time. * Added options for setting increasetime, checktime and waittime. (--increasetime, --checktime and --waittime) * Don't change the priority of any timer process when watchdogging. * Smaller code cleanups.
