[LAA] That is QMidiArp-0.6.4 of course....sorry

by Frank Kober

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! Best Frank --------------- 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.

[LAA] DrumGizmo v0.9.11 released

by Bent Bisballe Nyeng

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.

[LAA] AVL-Drumkits 1.1 Released!

by info＠bandshed.net

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: http://www.bandshed.net/avldrumkits/ Enjoy!

[LAA] PiDeck 0.1 'Kool Herc' - New Raspberry Pi DVS released

by Daniel James

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.

[LAA] The Open Source Musician Ep. 81 - New Tricks with Ardour 5

by Spencer Jackson

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. https://archive.org/details/OSMP81 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! _spencer
