QmidiCtl 0.5.2 - An(other) Early Summer'18 Release

by Rui Nuno Capela

Hello there! QmidiCt 0.5.2 (early summer'18) is out! QmidiCt [1] is a MIDI remote controller application that sends MIDI data over the network, using UDP/IP multicast. Inspired by multimidicast [6] and designed to be compatible with ipMIDI for Windows [7]. QmidiCt [1] has been primarily designed for the Maemo [8] enabled handheld devices, namely the Nokia N900 [9] and also being promoted to the Maemo Package [10] repositories. Nevertheless, QmidiCtl [1] may still be found effective as a regular desktop application and as an Android application as well. See also: QmidiNet [2] - A MIDI network gateway via UDP/IP multicast.

Vee One Suite 0.9.1 - An Early Summer'18 Release

by Rui Nuno Capela

Hi! One more time and not the last! The 'Vee One Suite' of so called '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 once again released just before the northern hot-season starts... For all you 'meridional' fans: don't ever take this as some kind of a disadvantage: you'll sure have it perfect and practice while northlings may go party and bust, whatever ;) Still available in the so called dual standard forms, for Linux anyway: - a pure stand-alone JACK client with JACK-session [5], NSM (Non Session management [6]) and both JACK MIDI and ALSA MIDI [7] input support; - a LV2 instrument plug-in [8]. The change for this joy-of-season goes as follows: - Loop crossfading and zero-crossing detection (the later being an old staple by default) are now set as brand new user options accessible from the main UI. (applies to samplv1 only [2]) - Fixed for some g++ >= 8.1.1 warnings and quietness. - Added LV2 UI X11 support option. - Disable reference micro-tuning settings when a Scala keyboard map override is in effect. Added "All files (*.*)" filter to every file requestor dialog, wherever missing. And now, in order of (chronological) appearance: **synthv1 - an old-school polyphonic synthesizer [1] ** synthv1 0.9.1 (early-summer'18) released! synthv1 is an old-school all-digital 4-oscillator subtractive polyphonic synthesizer with stereo fx.

AV Linux 2018.6.25 ISO Update with UEFI Fixes Released!

by Glen MacArthur

Hi everyone, AV Linux 2018.6.25 (aka "50 years of GMaq!") has been released, I have entered a new decade today and want to celebrate with an improved AVL Release.. The April AV Linux 2018.4.12 release had a lot of improvements and updates with regards to the Audio and Video applications but some improvements needed to be made for systems with UEFI booting and systems with recent AMD Video display adapters not covered by SGFXI. I personally have no UEFI (or AMD) computers to test with and only could use VirtualBox for UEFI testing and thanks to bug reports from a few users and several fixes provided by our forum member 'korakios' I think many of the issues for actual hardware UEFI machines have now been addressed. If you have already successfully installed and updated AV Linux 2018.4.12 then you will not really need to be concerned with the updated June ISOs. Fixes/Improvements: -New 4.16 kernel with full RT Preempt and improved support for newer AMD Video cards. -threadirqs was accidentally removed from the grub boot options, now fixed. -UEFI boots that failed due to missing FAT32 ascii modules should now be fixed. -Unetbootin boot failures due to missing FAT32 ascii modules should now be fixed. -Virtualbox Guest Additions will now be automatically removed on Non-Virtualbox installs. -Cinelerra 5.1 (aka Cin) has a new functionality to support LV2 Audio Plugins (initial release, may require restart on first run). -LSP Plugins are updated to 1.1.2 -Cleaned up wrong menu entry of ZynAddSubFX JACK multi -Updated relevant info in the AV Linux User Manual. A huge thanks to korakios for the work on UEFI improvements and trulan for the updated 4.16 kernels, thanks also to those who provided bug reports and tested ISOs, your time is very much appreciated! The linuxaudio.org mirror is up and running, Bytemark will come online sometime in the next few days.

Qtractor 0.9.1 - A Pre-LAC2018 Release Frenzy Finale!

by Rui Nuno Capela

Hello again, The Pre-LAC2018 [8] release frenzy is now complete... Qtractor 0.9.1 (pre-lac2018 beta) is out! Change-log: - Displaying MIDI note(on) events as diamonds instead of simple rectangles (aka. Drum Mode) is now being introduced as an optional MIDI track property (Drums) and as a MIDI clip editor (piano-roll) visual option (cf. View/Drum Mode). - Extended multi-selection is now supported on all the Connections client/port lists, allowing for multiple (dis)connections at once. - Added LV2 UI sample-rate option support. - Always reset all internal dedicated MIDI controllers, eg. MIDI track volume (CC#7) and panning (CC#10), on Transport/Panic and after rendering export to aud1io (ie. Track/Export Tracks/Audio...) as needed to reset MIDI instrument plugins to nominal session state. - Fix, detect and preserve MIDI Bank-select method across MIDI track/clips editing operations. - Fixed MIDI track and clip note min/max display range while recording and also when duplicating tracks. - Added "All files (*.*)" filter to every file requestor dialog, wherever missing. - The tiny zoom-magnifier icons have been revamped. 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.

Yoshimi 1.5.8 released!

by Will Godfrey

V 1.5.8 - Kingfisher Bright flash of colour. The most significant changes in this release are all usability ones. At the request of one user (and agreement of several others) some of the microtonal settings are now MIDI-learnable, and appropriately highlighted. The CLI can now open and close instances, and switch between them. There is a new 'Solo' type 'TwoWay' this works in a similar way to 'Loop', but (apart from zero) values less than 64 step from right to left, instead of the other way round. The highlighting is also a bit better. Both 'Loop' and 'TwoWay' also have debounce protection of approximately 60mS. The CLI can now clear a part's instrument. A fairly obvious option that somehow got missed. In the Banks windows Instruments can now be swapped between banks and bank roots. Banks can also be swapped between roots. This is an extension using exactly the same controls as those already available for in-bank swaps. The latest feature is autoloading instances. With this enabled, any instance that was open when the main one is closed will be re-opened on the next run. If these instances were set for starting with their default state, then all those settings will be performed. Therefore, a very comprehensive and detailed session can be started with a single command! A lot of the documentation supplied with Yoshimi has been updated, including the Advanced User Manual. Yoshimi source code is available from either: https://sourceforge.net/projects/yoshimi Or: https://github.com/Yoshimi/yoshimi Our list archive is at: https://www.freelists.org/archive/yoshimi To post, email to yoshimi(a)freelists.org -- Will J Godfrey http://www.musically.me.uk Say you have a poem and I have a tune. Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
