Wolf Spectrum - Spectrogram plugin (LV2/VST/Jack)

by Patrick Desaulniers

Wolf Spectrum is a free, real-time spectrogram plugin. It can be used to analyze the frequency content of signals over time. Right now, it supports vertical scrolling, logarithmic/linear frequency scaling, and configurable block sizes. I plan on adding a few features in future releases, such as horizontal scrolling and the ability to show the frequency at the cursor's position. To install the plugin, follow the instructions in the README: https://github.com/pdesaulniers/wolf-spectrum If you encounter some issues with the plugin, please report them. Feature requests are also welcome :) Thanks!

by Rui Nuno Capela

Hi there, trice again, Like some post-LAC2019 [8] frenzy hangover, here comes the third and final 'batch-of-one': Qtractor 0.9.7 (spring-break'19) is out! The changes for this seasonal release are as follows: - Re-defined all main application UNIX signal handling. - Fixed possible crash in drawing clips while rare loop-recording/takes situations. - Main window stabilizing is now kind of asynchronous re. menus, tools and status bars. - MIDI Controller's Latch mode attribute on tracks and plugins are now properly saved/loaded as meant to be. 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.

[ANN] jack-matchmaker 0.7.0 released

by Christopher Arndt

Greetings earthlings! I'm happy to announce that version 0.7.0 of *jack-matchmaker* has just been released! What is it? jack-matchmaker is a small command line utility that listens to port registrations by JACK clients and connects these ports when their names match one of the port pattern pairs given on the command line at startup. jack-matchmaker never disconnects any ports. What's new? * Added support for listing and matching port meta data pretty-names (supported only with JACK1 or JACK2 >= 1.9.13 or development version). * Added command line option -e, --exact-matching for exact port name matching mode. * Added command line option -N, --client-name to set JACK client name. For a detailed list of changes, see the change log here: https://github.com/SpotlightKid/jack-matchmaker/blob/master/CHANGELOG.rst Where to get it? https://github.com/SpotlightKid/jack-matchmaker or via pip: pip install jack-matchmaker or, for Arch Linux users, from the AUR: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/jack-matchmaker/ How to use it? Please read the documentation at the GitHub URL given above, or run 'jack-matchmaker -h' for a quick overview of command line options. *Share & Enjoy* Christopher Arndt

Infamous Plugins v0.3.0 The Never had a Summer of '69 Release

by Spencer Jackson

Yo: Keeping up with the cool kids, infamous plugins will be participating in quarterly releases (or at least I'll be releasing at least one of my projects each quarter). This is beneficial because it forces me to release "small" fixes regularly, rather than waiting for the "BIG" release I had in mind (that's going on nearly 2 years and counting). So wrapped into this release is lots of touch-ups and small fixes that mostly affect the host integration to the plugin. More notably the infamous stuck algorithm received a lot of attention and polished up as much as possible (probably no noticeable change to anyone though), a new stuck stacker version was created with no dry signal output so you can have several in parallel without affecting the gain, and the infamous power-up no longer has 10 seconds of latency (latency will now equal the power-up time). The biggest addition though in this release is (fanfare): the infamous octolo. It's an octaver and tremolo in one (see what I did there?). It works as a fairly nice sounding tremolo too but the special sauce is that it is able to play different sequences of the 3 voices (octave up, octave down, same octave) for some fun rhythmic effects. Basically I keep trying to chase low-CPU pitch shifting and this is my latest solution. By using the tremolo effect for silent jumping, I'm able to play back the sounds at different speeds to achieve an octave up and octave down effect. At long tremolo lengths (slow speed) you will notice the timing effects which may make it a bit unwieldy for certain things. With short lengths it's not a problem. Overall I'm pleased with the effect and plan to use it in my own music. I hope you will too. As always I love when you let me know how you are using these plugins of infamy. Have fun, make music, be free. Here ya go: https://github.com/ssj71/infamousPlugins/releases/tag/v0.3.0 Enjoy! _Spencer

ZynAddSubFX 3.0.5 - “The Butterfly Effect” Release

by Spencer Jackson

ZynAddSubFX 3.0.5 - “The Butterfly Effect” Release 15 April 2019 The Zyn team is excited to announce the first of our regular quarterly releases. Our usual inclination is to try to get all the bugs fixed and do a release, but using a scheduled release model will force us to deliver the fixes that are ready sooner rather than waiting for some unrelated feature or fix. Of course this doesn’t prevent us from releasing in between the scheduled releases, but this gives you something to look forward to four times a year. Despite being “just” a scheduled release there are some great improvements here for our favorite synth, including making LFOs and volumes work with real-world units (like Hz, seconds, decibels) allowing for laser-beam accuracy in your sound design. Of course, you can always still tune it by ear too! Here’s the full changelog: - Add Stereo peaks for individual part metering - Change LFO frequency units to Hz (from unitless) - Enhance LFO delay parameter resolution and units (seconds) - Enhance global volume parameter resolution and units (dB) - Enhance part volume parameter resolution and units (dB) - Enhance sub synth volume parameter resolution and units (dB) - Enhance sub synth volume velocity sensing resolution - Fix zippering when changing master volume - Fix misaligned points in live envelope values - Fix possible crash when envelopes are provided invalid live data - Fix minor bugs And here’s the contribution score card by number of commits since 3.0.4: (576f1371b4) 34 Daniel Sheeler 4 michiboo 3 Olivier Humbert 2 fundamental 1 withoutwaxaryan 1 Andreas Müller 1 Patrick Desaulniers 1 Micky We hope you enjoy this and all our subsequent scheduled releases. It can be found in all the usual places (see below). Now go make some noise! --Team Zyn.

ADLplug v1.0.1 - FM chip synthesizer

by Jean Pierre Cimalando

Dear list, Hello to all. I am glad to announce today the release of ADLplug 1.0.1, a retro FM chip synthesizer. This is the successor of the very first release 1.0.0, introducing just a modest change list over the previous version. You will find here the release and its list of improvements: https://github.com/jpcima/ADLplug/releases/tag/v1.0.1 To introduce, the software naming "ADL" comes from the Adlib, a family of synthesizer soundcards associated with numerous video gaming memories. The software is based on the MIDI player software ADLMIDI by Joel "Bisqwit" Yliluoma; it was vastly improved by Vitaly "Wohlstand" Novichkov and myself into becoming a full-featured real-time MIDI synthesizer. This package offers actually two distinct synthesizers, one for the OPL and another for the OPN family of FM chips. Have fun!
