Hi,
Just to let you know and leave me with some peace of mind for the coming
summer holidays, here's what:
QjackCtl 0.2.18 has been released, where a couple of sloppy bugs have been
fixed.
Taken from the rather minimal changelog for this one:
- A freezing and endless loop condition on the patchbay socket item
duplication (copy) has been fixed.
- Fixed output disability when messages limit option is turned off
(thanks again to Wolfgang Woehl for spotting this one).
Right. You can grab it from the usual original place(s):
http://qjackctl.sourceforge.nethttp://sourceforge.net/projects/qjackctl
Enjoy.

Greetings:
I've added a Musings section, corrected some URLs, and added one or
two new items. You know the drill:
http://linux-sound.org (USA)
http://linuxsound.jp (Japan)
http://linuxsound.atnet.at (Europe)
Alas, the European site is giving me fits again and is not yet
updated. The Japanese site will auto-update this evening.
Btw, my thanks to the many people who sent kindly messages regarding
these pages. I'm glad that the sites are a useful resource, despite
their ancient format and lack of amenities, and since no-one else has
arrived with a replacement I'll keep aperiodically updating them. I hope
you all continue to find them useful and enjoyable.
Best regards,
Dave Phillips

Download the 2.8.0 release here:
http://download.berlios.de/noteedit/noteedit-2.8.0.tar.gz
Future plans: We are splitting up the NoteEdit development into a stable
and unstable tree. The current development focus will be on the stable
tree adding some interesting new features. The unstable tree will get
a stronger focus after the next stable relese. The plans for this tree
will be hopefully unleashed in the near future :-)
As always: If you have any problems or find bugs, please post them in
the Bug tracker. or mail them to the developer mailing list.
Known bugs can be found in the Bug tracker as well.

E-Radium V0.61b
---------------
Released 12.7.2005
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.
This version of E-Uae is a hacked version of 0.28cvs, which runs
with realtime priority to get accurate timing and supports alsa-seq
to access midi. It does not hog the cpu as much as e-uae does
either so it can be used together with various sound synthesis
software running simultaniously in linux.
E-radium has been tested with both the 2.4 kernel and the 2.6 kernel
and with a ~1GhZ machine and a ~2ghz machine. (A 2.4 kernel with a
100hz resolution timer will proably not work very nice though.)
COMPILING
---------
make
RUNNING
-------
1. Run ./e-radium
2. Unpress the "Pause" button.
3. Select which resolution you want to run radium with.
4. Connect midi-ports with qjackctl, aconnect, qconnect or similar
tools.
CONFIGURING THE KEYBOARD
------------------------
If you are a non-us keyboard user, you might have to configure
the keyboard by setting the approporitate type.
e-uae currently supports fr, us, de, dk, se, it and es. Pick the
one closest to what you use, and put it into the "kbd_lang"-field
in the file ".uarc-radium".
(The keyboard should rather have been mapped directly from the
keys though....)
QUICK RADIUM GUIDE
------------------
* Move the editor-window to front, press "Ctrl + 1".
* Maximize the editor-window, press "Altgr + 1"
* Maximize the tracks in the editor-window, press "Ctrl + m"
* Move the playlist-window to front, press "Ctrl + 2".
* Move the Midi-properties-window to front, press "Ctrl + 3".
* Move the Help-window to front, press "Ctrl+4". (Use right mouse
button to access menues)
* Play song press Altgr+Space.
* Play block, press Right windows + Space
* Stop: Press space
* Continue song: Press Right Shift + Space
* Undo: Press Right Windows + U
* Redo: Press Right Windows + Right Shift + U
* Toggle midi-editing on/off, press Esc.
* Move 10 lines up/down: Press Left shift + up/down
* Move between tracks: Press AltGr + left/right
* Add block: Press Ctrl + f
* Move to next block: Press f
* Move to prev block: press a
* PANIC! Hold down left and right mouse buttons for 2-10 seconds.
The player should then stop.
+ A lot more. Check out bin/keybindings.conf for the complete
list. This file can also be editied.
ABOUT MIDI
----------
E-radium creates 8 public alsa-midi seq ports. Currently, only
the 2 first ones are enabled. To enable more, check out the
file s/startup-sequence.
On the linux-side (alsa-seq), the name of the ports are uae0,
uae1, uae2 and so on.
On the amiga-side (camd), the name of the ports are mmp.0,
mmp.1, mmp.2 and so on. These are directly connected if
enabled in s/startup-sequence.
Radium is currently configured to read midi from the uae0 alsa
midi port.
LINUX VERSION OF RADIUM
-----------------------
Radium runs quite okey on its own (v0.63), but its not quite
there yet. Until its there, running it via uae is the only
way to use it besides using a real amiga of course (altough
that is much slower than emulating).

Snd-ls v0.9.4.3
---------------
Released 30.6.2005
About
-----
Snd-ls is a distribution of the sound editor Snd. Its target is
people that don't know scheme very well, and don't want
to spend too much time configuring Snd. It can also serve
as a quick introduction to Snd and how it can be set up.
Changes from 0.9.3.0 to 0.9.4.3
--------------------------------
-Upgraded various rt-stuff.
-Upgraded various rt-stuff++
-Removed jack_set_server_dir guile-binding from rt-engine.scm, because its
removed from the newer versions of jack.

http://www.notam02.no/arkiv/src/snd/
*****************************************************************************
2.
Mammut V0.20
------------
Mammut will FFT your sound in one single gigantic analysis (no windows).
These spectral data, where the development in time is incorporated in
mysterious ways, may then be transformed by different algorithms prior to
resynthesis. An interesting aspect of Mammut is its completely
non-intuitive sound transformation approach.
Changes 0.18 -> 0.20
--------------------
-Fixed a bug in the Makefile caused by a fix in the previous release.
-Fixed some bugs in the Makefile.

Hello,
Available now from http://wcnt.sourceforge.net is the latest release of Wav
Composer Not Toilet, wcnt-1.2.
wcnt is a not-real-time modular audio synth, sequencer, and sampler. it
reads plain text files containing definitions of modules and data to then
create .wav file(s) of the described sounds.
new in wcnt-1.2 (on the plus side:)
* time_map
* tempo changes are now relative to tempo specified in header.
* slightly more accurate time keeping.
* adsr
* release section cannot be triggered more than once without
an intervening note_on.
* new parameter min_time. minimum time before release section
can be activated by note_off.
* new parameter max_sustain_time.
* new parameter release_is_ratio applies to release section only.
* sequencer
* out_start_trig output works.
* slightly more accurate time keeping.
* new and improved note slide handling does not forget notes.
* osc_clock
* new input in_play_state
* new parameter response_time
* when in_play_state recieves ON, it takes response_time
milliseconds to reach new frequency.
* trigger
* received code revision
* logic_trigger
* new function xornot, only output trigger1, but only if
trigger2 has not triggered at same time.
* new parameter - precision. how many samples apart trigger1
and trigger2 can trigger, and still be treated as
occurring simultaneously.
* wait_trig
* recieved revision of wait code.
* count parameter added specifies how many times it may trigger
before returning to its wait state.
* new output - out_wait_state.
* sync_clock
* new module which acts like an LFO but keeps in sync with
tempo from time_map.
* frequency modulation with snap_to parameter.
* synth_file_reader
* new data object which can be used to read contents of another
.wc file. (it's not new, but it's data object-ness is).
* can exclude or include modules and data objects specified
in two lists.
* param_editor
* new data object which can edit top-level parameters of
modules and data objects.
* uses new parameter types which allow editing to be done
in same way as module or data object definition itself.
* input_editor
* new data object which can re-connect module inputs and
outputs.
* uses new parameter types which allow connections to be made
in same way as module definition itself.
* wcnt_trigger
* new module with a single in_trig input and does nothing at
all.
* trig_switcher
* new module which contains a list of wcnt_trigger modules and
outputs a trigger from one of the wcnt_triggers.
* in_trig input causes a switch from one wcnt_trigger to another.
Not new since all time :(on the minus side)
* filters still leave something to be desired.
* still dogged with aliasing problems.
* can only deal with 16 bit WAV format.
Sylater,
_jwm.
