This is a one-year maintenance release of qmidiarp. A few new little features
have sneaked in and a few bugs have been fixed, both thanks to people filing
tickets!
Nothing else to say, except that the detailed changes are right below ;)
Check it out, have fun!

qmidiarp-0.6.4 (2016-11-01)
Improvements
o All Modules now have the Note Filter already present in the Arps.
Also, the note range entries can now be set by MIDI learn
o Arp: The octave mode is now defined by independent upper/lower bounds
(feature request #12 by ssj71)
o LFO: New waveform flip button (feature request #11 by MilkMiruku)
o Seq: The output MIDI channel is now a MIDI controllable item. This
allows for instance an LFO to control the Seq MIDI channels for
dispatching sounds within a sequence (feature request #13 by Menno)
Fixed Bugs
o LFO: Offset slider didn't follow drawing and led to jumps on
first use
o LFO: Waveform type switched to custom when muting points (bug #16
reported by MilkMiruku)
o Arp: When using Global Storage "Restore", the restore step was
incorrect

QMidiArp is a MIDI arpeggiator, phrase generator and controller LFO for JACK
and ALSA. It can run multiple synchronized arpeggiators, LFOs and step
sequencers. The modules are also available as LV2 plugins with Qt user
interface. All in all it is a handy live tool.

DrumGizmo version 0.9.11 now available!
Get it at http://www.drumgizmo.org/
DrumGizmo is an open source, multichannel, multilayered, cross-platform
drum plugin and stand-alone application. It enables you to compose drums
in midi and mix them with a multichannel approach. It is comparable to
that of mixing a real drumkit that has been recorded with a multimic setup.
This is mostly a bugfix release, but also introduces the use of the
Ardour inline feature in the LV2 version of the plugin. Go load it up,
you'll see a loading bar in the mixer panel.
A unicode bug has been fixed and we also fixed a problem that occurred
when using more than one instance of DG in your DAW. Plus a tonne of
other stuff. Check the roadmap for the full details.
Important note to package maintainers:
We now copy vst source files into the build tree while building the vst
plugin. This mean that should you wish to make a tar-ball available with
the build directory after the build has finished this must either be
stripped of said files or not be made public.

HI,
I have just released an update of the AVL-Drumkits (now at 1.1). For
those who are unfamiliar these are free sample libraries of 2 complete
Drumkits and hand percussion in Hydrogen, SFZ and Soundfont2 formats.
These kits are intended to bring an authentic acoustic, organic drum
sound to your MIDI DAW arrangements and preserve real-world
characteristics such as tom ringing and overtones unlike many General
MIDI kits that sound sterile. AVL-Drumkits feature 5 sample layers per
kit piece, have a very light memory footprint and are suitable for
systems old and new. The shell samples provide both center and edge
hits to emulate right and left hands and the cymbals are quite
realistic without truncated samples. Additional resources are
available such as a PDF Keymap and Midnam files to use with MIDI
tracks in Ardour and Mixbus.
Changelog:
* - Now licensed CC-BY-SA [1] with a slightly modified license
(Thanks to Nils Gey)
* - NEWLY ADDED SOUNDFONT2 VERSIONS! (tested with the new 'a-Fluid
Synth' plugin in Ardour 5.4)
* - Cleaned up formatting of SFZ text files with better key number
ordering (didn't affect performance, just my OCD)
* - New Kick drum samples for both kits with fuller sounding closed
resonant heads.
Downloads, more detailed information and Audio and Video demos of the
Kits can all be found at the AVL-Drumkits webpage:

Enjoy! Glen MacArthur - AV Linux Maintainer

Hi all,
Today 64 Studio is announcing the first official release of the PiDeck
project; version 0.1 is named in honour of DJ Kool Herc. Demo video at:
http://pideck.com/
PiDeck is an open source project retro-fitting the Raspberry Pi onto any
DJ turntable, eliminating the need for each DJ to carry their own
laptop. The xwax digital vinyl system is built into a custom micro SD
card image which you can extend with new and experimental features, or
just download and use today.
Music files are loaded from USB sticks so that DJs can hand over between
sets without any cable plugging or unplugging. The hardware parts cost
is around £150 sterling/166 euro/US $182 per turntable and there is no
soldering or modification to the turntable required.
See https://github.com/pideck/pideck-distro/releases to download the
software. We love pull requests :-)
Cheers!
Daniel James
Director
64 Studio Ltd.
The Octember episode of the podcast was just released (it took me a
month to finish so it's both September's and October's episode).
We demo some of the new Ardour 5 features and plugins, an epic track
from Bluebell, me failing to speak German, as well as the usual news
and drivel.

Please participate in our Tunestorm 16 which is themed "Game Music"
and due Nov 14.
Supertux needs a new track for one of their levels (see
http://forum.freegamedev.net/viewtopic.php?f=68&t=7081). You can
contact them or any open source game you like to see if they have any
needs for new music, or just write a song inspired by a game, or a
gameshow theme or whatever you want. If you want to contact some open
source game developers try http://forum.freegamedev.net or
irc.freenode.net/#freegamer.
This is due in just 1 month, so if you are interested, get on it! :)
We really want more participation.
Thanks for listening!
