[linux-audio-announce] jack 0.100.0 announcement

by Taybin Rutkin

Jack has finally reached version 0.100.0. In brief, more functions for getting latency statistics, better thread handling, and a more verbose way of connecting to the jackd server. This new function is jack_client_open(). From the documentation: Open an external client session with a JACK server. This interface is more complex but more powerful than jack_client_new(). With it, clients may choose which of several servers to connect, and control whether and how to start the server automatically, if it was not already running. There is also an option for JACK to generate a unique client name, when necessary. Jack-0.100.0 is available from http://jackit.sf.net, although a new website is in the works. ***CHANGES*** Rewritten coreaudio driver Switched to ALSA-1.0 API Added functions jack_client_create_thread(), jack_get_max_delayed_usecs(), jack_reset_max_delayed_usecs(), jack_internal_client_handle(), jack_internal_client_load(), jack_get_internal_client_name(), jack_internal_client_unload(), jack_get_xrun_delayed_usecs(), jack_client_open(), and jack_get_client_name(). See documentation for details. Removed functions jack_set_server_dir(), jack_create_thread() Added header file <jack/statistics.h> ALSA, OSS, and CoreAudio drivers now have -I/-O options for setting systemic latency. Added client request type RecomputeTotalLatencies Compiles and runs on MacOSX 10.4 Change the way threads get RT scheduling. it is now requested by the thread rather than assigned by the thread's parent. in cases where capabilities are used, the child is also given capabilities so that it can release + re-acquire RT scheduling as needed. Prevent watchdog from killing anything is JACK is freewheeling. And of course tons of bug fixes. Sincerely, Taybin Rutkin

[linux-audio-announce] [ANN] E-Radium V0.61d

by Kjetil Svalastog Matheussen <k.s.matheussen＠notam02.no>

http://www.notam02.no/radium/ INTRODUCTION ------------ E-radium is Radium and a special version of E-UAE. Radium is a midi music editor for the amiga and E-Uae is an amiga emulator. CHANGES ------- 0.61c -> 0.6d: -Increased amount of Z3-memory from 32 to 64. Also increased the amount of chip-mem from 2 to 8 to let there be more time to quit/save after getting a warning about too little memory. For now, this seems to work... -Lowered the keyboard repeat rate a bit. -Fixed make install -Use standard mouse pointer. -Upgraded Radium from 0.61c to 0.61d: -Added scroll-mouse support. Scrolling up is exactly the same as pressing arrow up, and scrolling down is exactly the same as pressing arrow down.

[linux-audio-announce] ANN: libgdither 0.6

by Steve Harris

http://plugin.org.uk/libgdither/ Bugfix release. Added patch for 64bit architecture support, thanks to Andreas Steinmetz, and a bugfix to the shaped dither that increases its signal to noise ratio. All projects that use this code should update. The intention is that applications that require this function should include hte code, rather than adding it as a depenency. About libgdither: Libgdither is a library for applying dithering to PCM audio sources. Dithering is a process to remove the intermodulation distortion from signals that are to be been reduced in bitdepth. This code is (c) Steve Harris 2001-2005 and released under the GNU Public Licence. Details may be found in the file COPYING. It can do conversions between any combination of: in out (optionally interleaved) ------------------------------------------------------------- normalised mono float 8bit unsigned ints normalised mono double 16bit signed ints 32bit signed ints normalised float normalised double At any bitdepth supported by the input and output formats

[linux-audio-announce] [ANN] E-Radium V0.61c

by Kjetil Svalastog Matheussen <k.s.matheussen＠notam02.no>

http://www.notam02.no/radium/ INTRODUCTION ------------ E-radium is Radium and a special version of E-UAE. Radium is a midi music editor for the amiga and E-Uae is an amiga emulator. CHANGES ------- 0.61b -> 0.61c: -Use the X mouse pointer instead of the amiga mouse pointer. Much more responsive and smoother. -Added support for the 1280x960 screen mode. (oops) -Removed one buzy-loop which I had overlooked when merging two sources, and increased the idle rate to 20. UAE shouldn't use 50% cpu when idle anymore. -Removed use of /dev/rtc. It was not ment to be used. -Automatically set the window-position at 0,0. No need to see both the unix window borders and amiga screen borders at once. Configuring a fullscreen is now a lot less work. -Lower the use of gfx-mem from 32megs to 16megs to boost the cpu-performance. (I think) -Higher the amount of z3 memory from 16megs to 32 megs. 16 megabyte was far to little as radium often ran out of memory. -Added "make install" -Upgraded radium from 0.61b to 0.61c. From Radiums changelog: -Don't scrollplay when scrolling more than one line up or down. -Added shortcuts for inserting exactly one line (Left Alt + down) and deleting exactly one line (Left Alt + up). -Switched keybindings for continue block (Right Shift + Space) and continue song (Right Shift + Right Alt + Space). -Put back the old running-scripts and such that I forgot to include in the previous release. Shouldn't be that hard to run radium now. -And other smaller fixes.

[linux-audio-announce] [ANN] Midisport 8x8 control panel

by Christoph Eckert

Hi, after having bought a Midisport 8x8 I had reverse engineered the sysex commands to configure the offline patches. I also wrote a small shell script to configure it. These days I have written a small Qt-program to do so. You can download it from here: http://sysexxer.sourceforge.net/files/MidischbochtPanel.tar.gz It's the first program I ever wrote, so don't expect too much. Please do not send feature requests, there are so many things I'd like to add but I still have to learn a lot about programming. If I continue working on it, then one of the next versions will be a complete rewrite because the code is so dirty and inelegant ;-) . But my goal was to write code that is useful for me. Hope you like it, ce
