[linux-audio-announce] Ann. Vstserver V0.2.8 and Ladspavst V0.1.5

by Kjetil Svalastog Matheussen

These updates makes it possible to use windows vst plugins in linux applications getting very descent realtime performance. I have successfully ran vst plugins in ardour with 2.66 ms latency. Sources: http://www.notam02.no/arkiv/src/ Linux Vst Compatibility Page http://80.61.20.184/vst/ Tutorial: http://www.djcj.org/LAU/quicktoots/toots/vst-plugins/ Mandrake binaries: (not the latest versions (yet)) http://rpm.nyvalls.se/sound9.1.html Vstserver 0.2.7 -> 0.2.8: ------------------------- -Added SCHED_FIFO priority and locking all mem (mlockall) to the processing thread. Can be used without being root by for example using the givertcap program by Tommi Ilmonen http://www.tml.hut.fi/~tilmonen/givertcap/ To turn off realtime priority, start the vstserver with either the "-NRT" or "--nonrealtime" flag. vst ladspa plugin v0.1.5 - stable ---------------------------------- -Fixed the worst nonrealtimeness for the default mode. When using realtime priority on the vstserver, it should not be necesarry to set LADSPAVST_RT to "1". --

[linux-audio-announce] JACK-0.90.0 Released

by Taybin Rutkin

********JACK 0.90.0******** JACK is a low-latency audio server, written primarily for the GNU/Linux operating system. It can connect a number of different applications to an audio device, as well as allowing them to share audio between themselves. Its clients can run in their own processes (ie. as normal applications), or can they can run within the JACK server (ie. as a "plugin"). JACK is different from other audio server efforts in that it has been designed from the ground up to be suitable for professional audio work. This means that it focuses on two key areas: synchronous execution of all clients, and low latency operation. Source packages for Jack 0.90.0 are available http://sourceforge.net/projects/jackit/ . ********Major Changes******** Buffers can resize during operation. This can be triggered by the user or by the function jack_set_buffer_size(). See the documentation for details. It is new code and still needs a shakedown. It can be enabled with './configure --enable-resize'. If not compiled in, jack_set_buffer_size() returns ENOSYS. Applications should be prepared for it though. Major rewrite of the thread model. This won't affect users. Thanks to the rewrite, jack now has a "freewheeling" mode for faster than realtime operation. It decouples the engine from the soundcard. The alsa driver has 3 new options. --i, --inchannels sets the number of channels to open for input. --o, --outchannels sets the number of channels to open for output. -S, --shorts changes the order of in which the sampleformats are tried. The driver will try to use 16bit samples first and only tries 32bit if this fails. Useful if you digitaloutput card supports 32bit samples but your interface doesn't. ********Minor Changes******** Greatly increased support for other architectures. --version also prints out the temporary directory. Example clients expanded to be more helpful. Many bug fixes. Updated and improved documentation. Portaudio driver works on linux. jack_connect() returns EEXIST if a connection is already made. Addition of jack_get_current_transport_frame (). hw:0 is the default ALSA device instead of "default". Jack's build system has better optimization. --silent option for halting jackd's output. Removal of --tmpdir and --asio options. Will compile with alsa-lib-1.0.0pre1 (the latest). ********Other******** Jack now has a mantis bugtracker at http://jackit.sf.net/mantis/ . Please use that for bug reports. James has written a tutorial for jack programmers available at http://dis-dot-dat.net/jacktuts/starting/index.html . ********Deprecated******** These are deprecated structures and functions that have been deprecated. They will likely be removed in a future release. The jack_transport_info_t struct has been deprecated. Please use jack_position_t instead. jack_engine_takeover_timebase() has been deprecated. Please use jack_set_timebase_callback() instead. jack_set_server_dir() has been deprecated. jack_get_transport_info() has been deprecated. Please use jack_transport_query() instead. jack_set_transport_info() has been deprecated. Instead, define a JackTimebaseCallback.

[linux-audio-announce] Ann. Mammut V0.16

by Kjetil S. Matheussen

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. 0.15 -> 0.16 -Tiny source cleanup. -Upgraded the included sndlib i386-binary to latest version. This one includes jack-support. http://www.notam02.no/arkiv/src/ --

[linux-audio-announce] Marlin 0.2 (4 More Years, How Many Dead?)

by iain

What is Marlin? Its a Sample Editor. It edits Samples. It uses GNOME and GTK+2 It looks pretty What's changed? Ermmm * We do stuff with any metadata a file may have. * Should load and save markers in wavfiles if you have a recent enough GStreamer (HEAD branch) * More paste options, and more silly features like halving selections * Hmmm... * Oh, the CD ripp^wextractor should work again, and if you have Musicbrainz installed it'll get details from there and use them in naming samples. * Markers can be added and editted and used for minor editting jobs * In the file selector there's preview details of sound samples. * Errr... * Bound to be other stuff I've forgotten (Can you tell I'm putting lots of thought into this announcement?) * Oh yeah... * It has a thumbnail of the whole sample in the overview bar now. Soundforge doesn't even do that! What does it look like? http://marlin.sourceforge.net/marlin-track-marker.png is a good screenshot. There's others kicking around that site. Some are out of date. Where can I get it? Rumour has it you can download it here http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=53043 You shouldn't always believe rumours though... Can I help? Please do, I have no real clue what I'm doing. In fact as David Devant and His Spirit Wife once sang "We're making it up as we go along, humming a half remembered song. When we woke up, we thought, whats the big deal...then we remembered, this is for real". Only the first line of that really was relevant, but I thought I'd do the whole thing. People to work on docs would be nice...translators too. Testers really welcome, and audio engineers can tell me what they want Marlin to do. I'd love to have feedback. What do I need? GNOME 2.4. It'll be moving to gnome2.6 base soon, but it'll still work on 2.4 for the time being. If you want track listings in the CD ripp^wextractor then you'll need Musicbrainz. GStreamer 0.7+ is required. HEAD CVS would be preferable cos then you'll get extra stuff, but 0.7.1 should be fine if thats all you have and can't be bothered fighting Sourceforge's anoncvs stuff. Is there a website? Yes. Where is it? http://marlin.sf.net Is there a roadmap so we can see where you're heading? Yes! I spent hours making one, cos all the cool projects have one, and we want to at least give the impression we're a cool project. http://marlin.sourceforge.net/road-trip2.png Any art commissioning, just ask me. I'm great at art. You're bound to be able to tell. As usual, all donations of a) Old guitar effects b) Fender Jaguar/Telecaster guitars c) Money d) Soundcards that work with ALSA and aren't limited to 48Khz (dumb Extigy) e) bugfixes and feature patches Will be greatfully received, although, and I'm getting realistic here, not really expected. Hasta La Vista Baybee! iain -- "Things like Destiny's Child are just repressed sexuality. It happens with boys and men too. I feel embarrassed for them when I listen to Stereophonics or Coldplay. That's not music for men." -- Alec Empire
