Hi,
Autocomp is an automatic accompaniment generator for Perl and Csound,
developed on Linux. It's an attempt at a practice utility for musicians.
Freshmeat project page is here:
http://freshmeat.net/projects/autocomp/
Download it or read more here:

Currently there is only one style of output, which is a pastiche of a
'swing' style with a walking bassline. The output is heavily on the
gorgonzola side of cheesy, but it's already at a stage where you can
practice with it if you don't mind the cheese level.
All comments/suggestions etc gratefully received.
Cheers etc.,
Wayne

(this is mostly a bugfix release, and new fade in/out)
also, if you can make it to linux.conf.au in sunny Perth, Western Australia
in January you'll be in for some loud Scrubby action and wild partying! I'm
excited about it already :)
best wishes for the holiday season, and a rocking new year :)

Sweep 0.5.13 Development Release
--------------------------------
Sweep is an audio editor and live playback tool for GNU/Linux, BSD and
compatible systems. It supports many music and voice formats including
WAV, AIFF, Ogg Vorbis, Speex and MP3, with multichannel editing and
LADSPA effects plugins. Inside lives a pesky little virtual stylus called
Scrubby who enjoys mixing around in your files.
This development release is available as a source tarball at:
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/sweep/sweep-0.5.13.tar.gz?download
NEWS:
This release contains build fixes for NetBSD and cleanups by Erik de
Castro Lopo to fix preprocessor pasting warnings.
It also features new fade in and fade out filters.
Conrad will be presenting two sessions at linux.conf.au, January 22-25 2003
in Perth, Australia; a tutorial titled "Using Sweep: Fun with Scrubby", and
an overview of Sweep's internals and plugin development.
Screenshots:

Some interesting audio recordings of Scrubby are at:
http://www.metadecks.org/software/sweep/demos.html

* precise, vinyl like scrubbing

The Rosegarden team have the pleasure of announcing the
latest release of their MIDI and audio sequencer and score
editor for Linux.
The source code is available now from the project homepage:
http://www.all-day-breakfast.com/rosegarden
The availability of binary packages depends on their various
maintainers; please check the project homepage for more
information.
New features since the 0.8 release include:
o Improved MIDI file I/O: better support for banks and
merging in import, better support for delay, transpose
etc in export
o MIDI device Bank and Program editor, including import
and export of Studio data
o MIDI Panic Button for clearing down stuck notes
o Added some keyboard controls to matrix
o Added real-time segment delays
o Progress display completely overhauled
o ALSA clients can be added dynamically (you can change
your soft synth configuration while Rosegarden is running)
o MIDI events filter dialog for MIDI THRU and MIDI record
o MIDI/ALSA recording bug fixed (stopping after so many
recorded events)
o Many bug fixes, tweaks and performance improvements
Unfortunately we've had to drop KDE2 support from this release
onwards as it was getting too difficult to maintain both KDE2
and KDE3 in the same development tree. We're hoping this won't
affect too many users in the long term.
Finally, we would like to thank the cachegrind/kcachegrind team
for a truly useful development tool.
Chris

-Convert plugin names to lowercase and remove trailing .dll to
avoid confusing the cache-mechanism.
k_vst~ V0.2.4 - stable
-----------------------
- Added support for VST effect/synth programs; these may now be changed
with the 'program' message and a program number. (added by acb)
See the help6 example patch.
