* - We've adopted a new numbering scheme for tarballs and packages that
will hopefully make things less confusing in the long term. We've
also jumped several release numbers for this release in an effort
to make things more confusing in the short term.
This release is Version 4, Release 0.8 : rosegarden-4-0.8.tar.gz
Last release was Version 4, Release 0.2 : rosegarden-0.2.tar.gz

New in Ceres 0.32 -> 0.33
-------------------------
-Fixed time-stretching. Time-stretch did not work
in any of the 0.3x versions.
-The Open-file file-requester shows info about the soundfiles.
-Fixed the default-values in the makefile, which was
wrong in 0.32.

Just a quick note to let you know there is now a sourceforge page for SSM:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/spiralmodular/
The CVS version is a bit ropey at the moment, but feel free to check it out
and flood the bug tracker :)
All the best,
Dave

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.
New in V0.08 -> 0.10
-Using gtk instead of motif. The reason is cleaner code
because of better python-support, and more portable.
-Buttons in the main-window.
-Support for 16,24 and 32 bits soundfiles, not only 16 bits.
-Support for float and double soundfiles.
-Fixed filenamebugs in combsplit and reimsplit
-Replaced libaudiofile with libsndfile.
-Removed soundfile length limitation.
-Removed some warnings.
-Playing internally from program using sndlib.
-Added undo/redo. (currently hardcoded to 300000 levels)

Hi All,
This month (October) we have a chat with Richard Bown about
the sequencer and notation program rosegarden.
Other features are: Angus Morrison talking about his beautiful
little PC's with mini-motherboards and machined aluminum
cases which will run alternate OS's on compact flash cards.
...plus our usual reviews and stuff.
Cheers
John
We have recently ported our frequency-domain audio analysis library
Maaate to the Windows platform and fixed some minor bugs and compile
warnings.
This is the announcement of Maaate Version 0.3.0 available for Linux,
Windows and Solaris.
(It uses bewdy 0.2.2 for visualisation under Linux only.)
http://www.cmis.csiro.au/maaate/
Maaate:
=======
Maaate is a C++ frequency domain audio analysis toolkit.
http://www.cmis.csiro.au/maaate/docs/index.html
Maaate is a set of libraries supporting frequency-domain based feature
analysis. Although it currently only works on MPEG compressed audio
files in the compressed domain, the interface to plug-in other file
formats (uncompressed or compressed) exists. Maaate also contains some
30 audio feature extraction, segmentation and classification algorithms.
It's all published under the GNU GPL.
Download it from: http://www.cmis.csiro.au/maaate/docs/download.html
Highlights of Maaate version 0.3.0:
- a generic frequency-domain based analysis framework
- a specific MPEG compressed (frequency) domain analysis library
- 30 analysis modules covering
* energy features (usable for loudness statistics),
* bandwidth features (usable for speech/music segmentation),
* spectral statistics (usable for sound type distinction),
* silence statistics (usable for speech/music segmentation),
* noise features (usable for explosion or crowd cheer detection),
* generic segmentation algorithms (thresholds on features) and
* some generic statistical algorithms (histogram, variance).
- extensive documentation on all modules is also available
online (http://www.cmis.csiro.au/maaate/docs/modules.html)
- works under Linux, Windows and Solaris
Bewdy :
=======
Play around with the compressed audio content of MP3 files under Linux!
http://www.cmis.csiro.au/maaate/bewdy/index.html
Bewdy is a program to visualise frequency domain audio feature analysis
and segmentation algorithms. For example, it can display the spectral
content of an MPEG audio file in the compressed domain and allows you to
play around with analysis algorithms on that data. It uses the (MPEG)
Maaate libraries for that purpose and can thus load up any analysis
module that is implemented for Maaate.
The pictures at http://www.cmis.csiro.au/maaate/snapshots.html and at
http://www.cmis.csiro.au/maaate/bewdy/docs/handbook.html show off more
of bewdy.

About CSIRO audio analysis research:
====================================
Here at CSIRO, an Australian government research organisation, we
perform research into the analysis of music and sound. We create
software to unravel the structure and texture of recorded audio, and we
develop systems which make use of the information extracted. Examples of
such systems include searching for music features and indexing
soundtracks. Much of our work is available as open source software.

"Um...symbol_get and symbol_put... They're
kindof like does anyone remember like get_symbol
and put_symbol I think we used to have..."
- Rusty Russell in his talk on the module subsystem
Now supports connecting to input ports and you can control the number of
columns of meters with -c, -c 1 will give you a vertical strip.
http://plugin.org.uk/meterbridge/meterbridge-0.0.4.tar.gz
Input monitoring "works" by disconnecting everything from the port,
connecting it to the meter in and connecting the monitor out of the meter
to the original port. When it quits it tries to put things back the way
they should be, but it might not always get it right.
If you run too many (8+) then things start to get dodgy, jack carries on
running, but you can't quit meters. I don't know why.
Thanks to Joern and Gerd for testing the extra-alpha versions, and Kai for
fixing the autoconf mess.

Almost useful and looks kinda funky. More-or-less compliant with BS
6840-10, BS 6840-17:1991 and IEC 268-18:1995.
Enjoy,
Steve
