liblrdf is a lightweight RDF metadata handling library with extensions for
manipulating LADSPA Schema-specific data.
http://plugin.org.uk/lrdf/
This version adds:
* MacOSX compatibility, courtesy of Taybin Rutkin
* A convienient method for reading control scale points
* A convienient method for writing preset information
An example showing how to use the two new methods can be found in
examples/scale_test.c and examples/setting_test.c
Scales are a way of mapping the semantics of port values to labels, eg.
that an oscilator wave control has known behaviours for 0, 1 and 2 mapping
to "sine", "square" and "saw".
An RDF scale description of his plugins is included with Tom's Audio
Plugins (http://www.hszk.bme.hu/~st444/tap/tap.html) and an RDF
description of the scales for mine is on the website
(http://plugin.org.uk/src/metadata/swh-scales.rdf, you can install it in
/usr/local/(share/)ladspa/rdf/) and will be included in the next release.

Hi all,
TAP (Tom's Audio Plugins) 0.1-0 is released.
Currently four LADSPA plugins are available.
You can check them out at:
http://www.hszk.bme.hu/~st444/tap/tap.html
Key features:
* TAP Equalizer
8 channel equalizer with adjustable band center
frequencies.
* TAP Reverberator
Actually no less than 38 reverberator effects,
ranging from Afterburn to Warehouse, including
small/medium/large rooms, halls, plates...
and more!
* TAP Stereo Echo
Supports conventional mono and stereo delays,
ping-pong (cross) delays and the Haas effect.
* TAP Tremolo
The newest incarnation of an ancient effect.
The plugins have been developed and tested
primarily with Ardour as a host in mind, but
should be functional with any LADSPA-capable
host.
A thorough manual is provided in HTML format,
including detailed information, CPU usage metrics,
usage tips & more about each plugin.
Enjoy!
Tom Szilagyi
This is the first release of a voice controlled, resonator based instrument
for the jack-audio-connection-kit. Playing it the first time it reminded me
to the sound and playing technique of a didgeridoo. Thats the reason for its
name.
Requirements:
- A microphone with near fields characteristics for instrument control.
- A headphone to avoid feedback.
- The jack-audio-connection-kit.
- A i586 compatible system running Linux.
Its available at http://www.linux-sound.org/rtsynth/
Your feedback is welcome.
- Stefan

Announcing Visecas version 0.3.5.
This is an interim release which fixes several serious bugs.
Hacking Gtk::Fileselection from Ruby on a Debian system (which currently
comes with a patched GtkFileselection) turned out to be a very bad idea
regarding portability.
New screenshots can be found on the web.
Thanks to all those who reported their problems with version 0.3.1.
Visecas is a graphical user interface (GTK+) for Ecasound
[http://eca.cx/ecasound], a software package written by Kai Vehmanen
which is designed for multitrack audio processing.
It aims to provide full access to all Ecasound's object by preserving
Ecasound's semantic (which means you do not edit tracks and regions but
chains and audio objects).
Please visit Visecas' webpage at http://visecas.sourceforge.net
This release fixes:
* broken audio objects' dialog
* malformed preferences file crashes
* silly behaviour with open/save as
* crash once one of several chainsetups was closed
* timeout problem (hopefully)
* minor bugs
