Drumstick is a set of MIDI libraries using C++/Qt5 idioms and style.

B.Angr 1.6.0

by Sven Jaehnichen

Hi, a new release of B.Angr is out now. B.Angr is a multi-dimensional dynamically distorted staggered multi-bandpass LV2 plugin. B.Angr basically consists of four parameter instances of Airwindows XRegion. XRegion itself is a distorted multi-bandpass filter plugin. B.Angr fades automatically or manually between the four parameter instances. The result is a dynamic and heavily distorted sound. See the preview video. What's new: * Faster * Optimized DSP code * Compiler optimizations (`-O3 -ffast-math`) * Support lv2:Parameters, lv2:State * Cursor XY can now externally be controlled * Binary compatibility improved * Static libs * Strip symbols by default * Binary packages provided Github: https://github.com/sjaehn/BAngr/ Releases: https://github.com/sjaehn/BAngr/releases/tag/1.6.0 Preview video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-kWy_1UYazo <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-kWy_1UYazo> Regards, Sven

GSequencer v3.10.6 released - VST3 host support

by Joël Krähemann

Hi all, Advanced Gtk+ Sequencer version 3.10.6 just released. http://nongnu.org/gsequencer/ During the development of 3.10.x I have extended the VST3 C API wrapper library libags-vst.so. But it is not yet completed, only headers from pluginterfaces and few others are wrapped yet. We use Steinberg SDK to interface with VST3 plugins. You can use your native VST3 plugin on linux with gsequencer. The generated UI of the plugin doesn't support plugin UI yet. AgsVst3Bridge and AgsLiveVst3Bridge are your machines to make use of VST3 plugins. The VST3 host is implemented as ags-fx-vst3 recall. The effect processor gets information from AgsVst3Manager and AgsVst3Plugin. So far only MIDI note-on and note-off supported. VST3 is default off as you build from source. To enable it run: ./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-vst3 make -j8 make install regards, Joël

Drumstick Multiplatform MIDI File Player 1.5.0 Released

by Pedro Lopez-Cabanillas

[Drumstick](https://drumstick.sourceforge.io/docs/index.html) is a set of GPLv3 licensed C++/Qt libraries for MIDI applications. The project includes several tools as examples, and among them is the drumstick-guiplayer utility that leverages the Drumstick::ALSA library, so it is available only for Linux (because the ALSA sequencer is a linux only technology). Some people have requested a program with the same functionalities also on Windows and macOS, so here it is. But this project is much more ... Some key features: * MIDI Output to hardware MIDI ports, or any other Drumstick backends, like soft synths * Transpose song tonality between -12 and +12 semitones * Change MIDI volume level (using MIDI CC7) * Scale song speed between half and double tempo * Supports MID/KAR (Standard MIDI Files) and WRK (Cakewalk) file formats Changes in v1.5.0: * Ticket #3: Song loop between bars * Ticket #7: Help window and user documentation * Ticket #10: Splash screen * Ticket #11: Fixed Winsnap enable/disable * Allow more than one file from the command line, or dragged from a file manager * Some rough edges softened * Czech translation updated, thanks to Pavel Fric * Italian help page translated, thanks to Giovanni Mariani Build requirements: * C++11 compiler * Qt5 * Drumstick libraries v2.3 * Uchardet v0.0.7 * CMake 3.14 * Pandoc Copyright (C) 2021 Pedro Lopez-Cabanillas License: GPL v3 or later Project and Source Repositories https://sourceforge.net/p/dmidiplayer https://github.com/pedrolcl/dmidiplayer Downloads https://sourceforge.net/projects/dmidiplayer/files/v1.5.0/
