Hi all,
Om is a modular synthesizer that runs under Jack and uses LADSPA and/or
DSSI plugins for processing. The engine is an independant process
entirely controlled via OSC, is polyphonic, and supports subpatches.
More information, screenshots, and downloads available at
http://www.nongnu.org/om-synth/.
Please report bugs, feedback, feature requests, etc. on the Savannah
bugs page; or feel free to email me privately.
Enjoy,
-DR-
Hi,
Gungirl Sequencer Version 0.3.0 is ready,
and it comes with an impressive set of new
features:
- Automations, Fade-in, Fade-Out
- Unlimited Undo
- Sample Stretching and Trimming
- Unlimited Number of Tracks
- Zip-Packages of Songs
- Looping
About ggseq:
It's a simple Audio-Sequencer designed for arranging
small Sound-Loops, as available on CD from various
Producers. It's not a general Purpose Sound Editor, it
has no support for large audiofiles. It doesn't do
MIDI.
It's a fun toy, for people new to electronic
music-making.
It's available from the Gungirl Sequencer Homepage at:
http://ggseq.sourceforge.net/
There is a source tarball that requires the following
dependencies:
- wxGTK 2.4.x or later
- libsndfile 1.0.0 or later
- libsamplerate 0.0.15 or later
There is a statically linked binary release that should
run on most recent Version of the GNU/Linux OS,
provided GTK+ is installed.
And there is a win32 Installer.
Have fun

Patchage is a modular patch bay for Jack audio and Alsa Midi.
This releads adds Alsa Midi patching support, and numerous bugfixes.
Downloads and screenshot available at:
http://www.scs.carleton.ca/~drobilla
Known issues:
- Many apps that use MIDI will show up as separate modules, one with
audio ports and one with MIDI ports. This is because that app uses
different app names with Alsa and Jack. Fix your apps. :)
- Zooming is really shaky because gnomecanvas is complete trash

available online. Among the many excellent papers that were presented
during what is by now the most famous conference of the Linux Audio
scene, the AGNULA team manage to squeeze two contributions in.
The first paper, "AGNULA/DeMuDi - GNU/Linux and Free Software for the
pro audio and sound research domain" by Bernardini, Cirotteau,
Ekanayaka and Glorioso focuses on the AGNULA/DeMuDi GNU/Linux
distribution - where we are and where we are going from now on. The
second paper, "AGNULA Libre Music - Free Software for Free Music" by
Fugazza and Glorioso, is a description of the AGNULA Libre Music web
database.
We encourage you to download the papers at:
- AGNULA/DeMuDi - GNU/Linux and Free Software for the pro audio and
sound research domain
http://lac.zkm.de/papers/bernardini_et_al.pdf
- AGNULA Libre Music - Free Software for Free Music
http://lac.zkm.de/papers/fugazza_glorioso.pdf
Last, not least, please do download and read all the other papers.
The wealth of material presented during this edition of Linux Audio
Conference was impressive and is welcome sign of maturity for those
who wish to professionaly use GNU/Linux systems for audio/sound
production and/or research work.
The proceedings are available online at:

+++ Main AGNULA host back online after attack
After the attack (and potential compromise) that the AGNULA main host
(agnula.speech.kth.se) suffered from in the past days [0], we are
happy to announce that we concluded the reinstallation process. All
the services provided by the host have been restored and are, to the
best of our knowledge, fully functional.

After the attack (and potential compromise) that the AGNULA main host
(agnula.speech.kth.se) suffered from in the past days [0], we are
happy to announce that we concluded the reinstallation process. All
the services provided by the host have been restored and are, to the
best of our knowledge, fully functional.
On Sunday, April 16 2005, the main AGNULA host (agnula.speech.kth.se,
hosting lists.agnula.org, www.agnula.org, download.agnula.org,
devel.agnula.org, muzik.agnula.org and related services) was subject
to an attack (see below). The attacker(s) (whose identity is unknown
as of today) managed to download, *but not succesfully run*, a
backdoor on the system; thanks to the tight security measures
implemented on the host - and after a thorough check of the whole
system - we had reasons to believe that the latter was *not*
compromised.
However, following good security practices and common sense, we could
not guarantee the integrity of the host. Since we had already planned
an extensive upgrade of the server, we decided to go down the safer
route: completely wipe out the system, reinstall everything from
scratch and recover backup data from the day before the attempted
compromise.
The reinstallation process has now come to an end. All the services
should be back online as you read this e-mail (actually, they started
to come back before this announcement, but we preferred to do some
checks in advance).
Please feel free to contact <info(a)agnula.org>, should you notice any
problem.

A new release of Wav Composer Not Toilet is now available as source code to
download from wcnt.sf.net.
This release has removed an enourmous amount of memory leaks, fixed several
segmentation faults, and, other bug issues have been fixed. Validation of
parameters is now updated, and working. Various re-codings have resulted in
a slightly smaller executable. Full info in the Changelog.
There are also some new modules. The wcnt home pages have been redesigned
and now include small tutorial style help and descriptions. New examples are
located in the source package.
