Dumstick MIDI File Player Multiplatform 1.2.0 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 ... Some key features: * MIDI Output to hardware MIDI ports, or any other Drumstick backend * Transpose song tonality between -12 and +12 semitones * Change MIDI volume level (using MIDI CC7) * Scale song speed between half and double tempo In v1.1.0: * Pianola, Channels and Rhythm views * Sticky Window Snapping (for Windows OS only) * Russian translation (Thanks to Sergey Basalaev) * Spanish translation updated * Recent files menu options * Language choice menu options * Command line options: --portable and --file (for portable configuration) New in v1.2.0: * Lyrics view (karaoke window) * Character encoding detection * File Info (metadata) dialog Build requirements: * C++11 compiler * Qt5 * Drumstick 2.1 * CMake 3.10 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/v1.2.0/ https://github.com/pedrolcl/dmidiplayer/releases/latest

B.Spacr - New LV2 sound effect plugin

by Sven Jaehnichen

Hi, after weeks of hard work I just released the first official version of a new sound effect plugin. B.Spacr is a unique LV2 effect plugin that enables a clear and brilliant audibility of your music production. B.Spacr is suited for *any* kind of music, including rock, funk, pop, rap, and electronic music. This plugin can be added to each track individually or to the master bus with *zero latency*. The result is a space-clear sound *without any loss* of audio signal information and without any artifacts only depending on the quality of the input signal. In contrast to many over-complex audio plugins, the number of parameters have been reduced to the minimum for the best *user experience*. https://github.com/sjaehn/BSpacr <https://github.com/sjaehn/BSpacr> Enjoy and make some music with it Sven

by Rui Nuno Capela

Hello thrice! Qtractor 0.9.21 (end-of-winter'21) is out! Change-log: - Ignore snap while ALT key is pressed, on the main track-view and the MIDI clip editors (aka. piano-roll). - Fixed a FTBFS when native LV2 UI GTK2 support is disabled. - Fix IPlugView leaks for VST3 plugins. Description: Qtractor [1] is an audio/MIDI multi-track sequencer application written in C++ with the Qt framework [2]. Target platform is Linux, where the Jack Audio Connection Kit (JACK [3]) for audio and the Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA [4]) for MIDI are the main infrastructures to evolve as a fairly-featured Linux desktop audio workstation GUI, specially dedicated to the personal home-studio.

Vee One Suite 0.9.21 - An End-of-Winter'21 Release batch #2

by Rui Nuno Capela

Hello twice! The 'Vee One Suite' of 'old-school' software instruments, synthv1 [1] as a polyphonic subtractive synthesizer, samplv1 [2] a polyphonic sampler synthesizer, drumkv1 [3] as yet another drum-kit sampler and padthv1 [4] as a polyphonic additive synthesizer, are here and now rolled out as the second batch to the so called 'QStuff*' (northern) End-of-Winter'21 release season. All still delivered in dual form:: - a pure stand-alone JACK client with JACK-session [5], NSM (Non/New Session Management [6]) and both JACK MIDI and ALSA MIDI [7] input support; - a LV2 instrument plug-in [8]. Changes for this 'end-of-season' are as follows: - Fixed an old lurker, causing slight differences to voice on-sets, due to a wrong initial LFO Volume ramping value. - Slightly improved eye-candyness to all graphic widgets, most especially on the EG widget handling, curved lines and gradient fills. The 'Vee One Suite' are free, open-source Linux Audio [10] software, distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL) [11] version 2 or later.

[ANN] jack_mixer version 15 released

by Christopher Arndt

Hello FLOSS audio people! I'm proud to announce the new release of jack_mixer version 15! jack_mixer is a GTK+ JACK audio mixer app with a look & handling similar to hardware mixing desks. Please visit the project's homepage at rdio.space/jackmixer for more information. You can find the new release on Github at: https://github.com/jack-mixer/jack_mixer/releases/tag/release-15 **Important change:** 'jack_mixer' now uses [meson] for building and installation. See 'INSTALL.md' in the source for new build instructions. New: * A global setting for default project file path was added and can be changed in the preference dialog. The default value is '$XDG_DATA_HOME/jack_mixer' (which is normally '~/.local/share/jack_mixer'). * A "Recent projects" menu was added, to allow loading recently used / saved projects more quickly. * Direct channel output ports are now optional and can be enabled / disabled in the channel preferences dialog. * Ctrl+left-click on the mute ("M") or solo ("S") channel buttons now activates exclusive mute resp. solo. * A man page for 'jack_mixer' was added. * 'jack_mix_box' now supports the '-p|--pickup' command line option to enable MIDI pickup mode, to prevent sudden volume or balance value jumps. Fixed: * Activating the solo function on an input channel could cause its output signal be sent to the monitor outputs instead of the signal from the channel, which had monitoring activated. * Volume and balance level and mute and solo state changes originating from the UI now send the correct assigned MIDI CCs, allowing for MIDI feedback to controllers. Same for changes originating from reception of assigend MIDI CCs. * The handler for right-clicking the input channel mute/solo buttons, was accidentally removed and is now re-instated. * Creating a new output channel assigns it a randomly chosen color, which can be changed in the new channel dialog (used to work some releases ago, but was broken at some point). * The 'jack_mix_box' command line options '--help' and '--stereo' erroneously required an argument. * Saving the current project on reception of the 'SIGUSR1' signal, which is a requirement for LADISH level L1 support, was broken in version 14. * When re-ording channels via drag-and-drop, the order of the edit / remove channel menu items were not updated. * When creating an output channel, it could happen that the initial channel volume would ranmdomly be set to -inf or 0 dB, regardless of what was selected in new channel dialog. Changed: * The minimum supported Python version is now 3.6. * The 'jack_mix_box' command line usage help message was improved. * The channel strip buttons (solo, mute, etc.) now have more distinctive colors when activated or the mouse hovers over them. * The balance slider step size was increased slightly so right-clicking the slider changes the value more rapidly. * When using the "Save as..." function, 'jack_mixer' now sets the default filename and directory for file chooser to the last ones used. * A window title was added to the preferences dialog. * MIDI control for mute and solo now interprets control value 0-63 as off and 64-127 as on, instead of toggling the state on reception of any controller value. Project infrastructure and internals: * The 'jack_mixer_c' Python extension module, which was originally implemented in hand-written C code using the PYTHON C API, was replaced with the '_jack_mixer' extension module implemented in Cython, which generates the C code in '_jack_mixer.c'. * The autotools build toolchain was replaced with a build setup using meson, which improves build times and maintainability markedly. See the file 'INSTALL.md' for updated build and installation instructions. * A build option to allow buidling only 'jack_mix_box' was added ('-Dgui=disabled'). * All Python code was re-formatted with [black]. * All errors and warings reported by [flake8] were fixed or are expressively and selectively ignored. * The file 'version.py' is now generated from the version set in the project definition in the top-level 'meson.build' file, leaving this as the only place where the version number needs to be updated before a release. * The 'NEWS' file was renamed to 'CHANGELOG.md' and converted to Markdown format. This release was created by Christopher Arndt. With a contribution from Athanasios Silis. Share & enjoy! Christopher Arndt
