Vee One Suite 0.8.1 - A Spring'17 release

by Rui Nuno Capela

Great news! The 'Vee One Suite' of old-school software instruments, respectively synthv1 [1], as a polyphonic subtractive synthesizer, samplv1 [2], a polyphonic sampler synthesizer and drumkv1 [3] as yet another drum-kit sampler, are once again out in the wild! Still available in dual form: - a pure stand-alone JACK [4] client with JACK-session, NSM [5] (Non Session management) and both JACK MIDI and ALSA [6] MIDI input support; - a LV2 [7] instrument plug-in. The common change-log for this dot release follows: - Fixed a probable old miss about changing spin-box and drop-down list not reflecting changes immediately into the respective parameter dial knobs. - Fixed middle-button clicking on the dial-knobs to reset to the current default parameter value. - Help/Configure.../Options/Use desktop environment native dialogs option is now set initially off by default. - Added French man page (by Olivier Humbert, thanks). - Make builds reproducible byte for byte, by getting rid of the configure build date and time stamps. And here they go again! **synthv1 - an old-school polyphonic synthesizer [1]** synthv1 0.8.1 (spring'17) released! synthv1 is an old-school all-digital 4-oscillator subtractive polyphonic synthesizer with stereo fx.

Announcement and Invitation: Sonoj Convention (November the 4th and 5th 2017 in Cologne, Germany)

by Sonoj Convention

Dear Reader, Music and technology come together on November the 4th and 5th 2017 in Cologne, Germany. See, hear and learn how music gets created using free and open source software and hardware. Meet new people and their exiting creative techniques; and show your own, if you want! The only requirement for participation is an interest to make and create music. You do not have to be an expert of any kind to enjoy the event. The theme of the convention is making music with free and open source software and hardware. That includes a single program up to a whole operating system. No matter the technology, the music is at the centre of it. Every talk, demonstration or workshop will be focused on music. This also includes a top-down approach e.g. we advise our speakers to start with a piece of music and refer everything after that to it. You are invited to apply to present anything that matches the theme of Sonoj Convention. To apply please fill out the form on the website or write an e-mail to info(a)sonoj.org <mailto:info@sonoj.org>. We only require a preliminary text that broadly outlines your idea. Mention at least how much time it will take and the format of your idea (e.g. demonstration of your own music and workflow, tutorial with audience-participation etc.). We will get in touch with you shortly after your submission. For more information see http://www.sonoj.org Regards, Nils Hilbricht for the organization team -- Sonoj Convention http://www.sonoj.org November the 4th and 5th 2017 Venue: Heliosstrasse 6a 50825 Cologne, Germany

Qtractor 0.8.1 - The Sticky Tauon is out!

by Rui Nuno Capela

Hello everybody! Qtractor 0.8.1 (sticky tauon) is out! Release highlights: * JACK Transport mode switching on main menu/tool-bar (NEW) * Main menu Track/Navigate/Next, Previous wrap around (FIX) * Auto-backward play-head position flip-flopping (FIX) * JACK Transport tempo/time-signature in-flight changes (FIX) * Sanitized audio clip zoom-in/out resolution (FIX) Obviously, this one dot bug-fix release and everyone is then compelled to upgrade. On the side, a couple of notes are also worthy of mention... Besides some other stray thoughts, you may be asking yourself, after reading those crappy release highlights above, what the heck that "in-flight" tempo / time-signature change-fix is all about? No stress. There's always a reason, as if reason won't ever prevail, above all else... So, the whole truth and nothing but the truth, should here be told: jack_link [8] is the dang reason. And then, you may now know and play the badass with Ableton Link [7]. Keep in mind that jack_link [7] is kind of a toy, so please, have it under a child's perspective ;) You can still play all along with your band fellows, don't get me wrong. You all have to be on the same machine or in the same local network segment (LAN) anyway, just like yours truly QmidiNet [9] does (and recommends). But that's probably one hell of a disparate story, although sharing the same networking concept... move along! Whatever. When in doubt, please ask me. Whenever you find yourself in despair, you can also ask me. But take note that I made no promises nor guarantees that it would ever work for you. And this goes as far as in any formal disclaimer can go. The hard truth is: your are on your own. But please, enjoy and have (lots of) fun while you're at it ;) As second note, this project has finally called in for its own vanity and internet domain name: qtractor.org [1]. I guess it was about time. Nuff said. 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.

Change-log: - The View/Options.../Display/Dialogs/Use native dialogs option is now set initially off by default. - All tempo and time-signature labels are now displayed with one decimal digit, as it was in mostly everywhere else but the time ruler/scale headers. - JACK transport tempo and time-signature changes are now accepted, even though playback is not currently rolling; also, changing (JACK) Timebase master setting (cf.View/Options.../General/Transport/Timebase) will take effect immediately, not needing nor warning for session restart anymore. - Track/Navigate/Next and Previous menu commands, finally fixed to wrap around the current track list. - Current session (JACK) transport mode option switching is now being made accessible, from the main menu and drop-down toolbar buttons, as well as user configurable PC-keyboard and/or MIDI controller shortcuts (cf. Transport/Mode/None, Slave, Master, Full). - Fixed some auto-backward play-head position flip-flopping, when opening a new session while the previous was still on rolling/playing state, hopefully. - Added French man page (by Olivier Humbert, thanks). - MIDI clip changes are now saved unconditionally whenever the editor (piano-roll) is closed or not currently visible. - Audio clip peak/waveform files re-generation performance, scalability and resilience have been slightly improved. - Some sanitary checks have been added to audio clip peak/waveform re-generation routine, as much to avoid empty, blank, zero or negative-width faulty renderings. - Do not reset the Files tree-view widgets anymore, when leaving any drag-and-drop operation (annoyingly, all groups and sub-groups were being closed without appeal). - Make builds reproducible byte for byte, by getting rid of the configure build date and time stamps.
