were systematically sought and destroyed. The result, code-named
"Alambradas" is a better, more reliable, ready-to-plug-in Zyn.
FEATURES
- Add realtime automation for subnote parameters
- Add FLTK UI for LV2 plugins - (no more requirement for NTK)
- Add support for '~' in bank paths
- Fix VST crashes
- Fix VST loading issues
- Fix Microtonal copy/paste
- Fix GCC 5.3.0 build issues
- Fix autosave disable flag

Hello everybody!
Qtractor 0.7.5 (hazy photon) is out!
It comes with one top recommendation though: please update, at once,
while it's hot! :)
Highlights for this dot/beta release:
* Overlapping clips cross-fade (NEW)
* MIDI Send/Return and Aux-Send insert plugins (NEW)
* Generic and custom track icons eye-candy (NEW)
Some other interesting points may be found in the blunt and misty
change-log below.
And just in case you missed it before,
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 (since last tacky release):
- Beat unit divisor, aka. the denominator or lower numeral in the
time-signature, have now a visible and practical effect over the
time-line, even though the standard MIDI tempo(BPM) is always denoted in
beats as quarter-notes (1/4, crotchet, seminima) per minute.
- Fixed an old hack on LV2 State Files abstract/relative file-path
mapping when saving custom LV2 Presets (after a related issue on Fabla2,
by Harry Van Haaren, thanks).
- Default PC-Keyboard shortcuts may now be erasable and re-assigned (cf.
Help/Shortcuts...).
- New option on the audio/MIDI export dialog, on whether to add/import
the exported result as brand new track(s).
- Introducing brand new track icons property.
- Old Dry/Wet Insert and Aux-send pseudo-plugin parameters are now split
into separate Dry and Wet controls, what else could it possibly be? :)
- Brand new MIDI Insert and Aux-Send pseudo-plugins are now implemented
with very similar semantics as the respective and existing audio
counterparts.
- Implement LV2_STATE__loadDefaultState feature (after pull request by
Hanspeter Portner aka. ventosus, thanks).
- Plug-ins search paths internal logic has been refactored; an
alternative file-name based search is now in effect for LADSPA, DSSI and
VST plug-ins, whenever not found on their original file-path locations
saved in a previous session.
- Finally added this brand new menu Clip/Cross Fade command, aimed on
setting fade-in/out ranges properly, just as far to (auto)cross-fade
consecutive overlapping clips.

Greetings,
I felt we lack a light, quick and efficient tool to compare waveforms.
DFasma is quite convenient for inspection of results of synthesis and
modification tasks on voice signals.
Homepage:
http://gillesdegottex.github.io/dfasma/
Downloads:
https://github.com/gillesdegottex/dfasma/releases
* Shows spectrogram, amplitude spectrum, phase spectrum and group delay.
* Can play a filtered sound given a selected frequency band.
* Rectification of the spectrogram tilt (cepstral lifting).
* Can create and edit fundamental frequency (F0) files (thanks to REAPER).
* Can create and edit segmentation files.
* Can load about 25 different audio formats (thanks to libsndfile).
* Everything runs under Linux, Mac OSX and Windows.
Have fun ! And any type of feedback is welcomed of course.
Cheers,
Gilles
Greetings,
Just to note that I've updated the page at
http://linux-sound.org/linux-vst-plugins.html
to include some new items.
Please let me know of any needed corrections, deletions, or items I
should add to the list.
Best,

Yoshimi 1.3.9, that is :)
This is another consolidation release (although there are a few new features).
With people, and some distros moving to GCC 6 we felt we should make sure we
are squeaky clean, as this is much more pedantic regarding code correctness.
Our new version has been extensively tested on GCC 4.9/5.3/6.0 both for
compilation and runtime performance. One of our users has also double checked
by compiling with Clang 3.5
More details in the README.txt file.
As usual, available from:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/yoshimi

Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
Zynaddsubfx 2.5.3 - “Chiron” Released
I’d say it’s a good day for a new release, wouldn’t you? Zynaddsubfx has
reached version 2.5.3 including some exciting new changes for the
now-officially supported VST and LV2 plugin versions! In addition to the
usual bugfixes some rich new features have been added such as:
- Add LV2&VST support via DPF - zyn is now working as a native linux plugin
in most DAWs! Other platforms coming soon. I know I’m sure excited about
this...
- Add autosave - Just in case of the rare crash, this can be a lifesaver
- Add realtime filter parameter updates - For smoother, wilder filter
tweaking
- Add LFO random mode - adds sample and hold module integrated to the LFO,
great for classic bleep-blop computer sounds (and a hundred other things)
- Add more controls to DSSI plugin - For more knob turning sonic
automation-exploration in DSSI plugin hosts
- Add fixed frequency modulators - Easier FM operations
- Add more reset states to knobs/sliders - double click will put it back to
the default state, so you don’t need to be afraid of turning that knob, you
can always go back.
- Add PWM mod - Sweet sweeping from nasally to full bodied square waves
- Fix Microtonal UI - if you do microtonal music, this is a huge deal!
- Fix 'Add Bank' - easier organization for all your patches
- Fix sustain bugs in 2.5.x series - So you can keep your feet below your
keyboard to play more notes
- Fix mem pool exhaustion bug - a boon to stability
- Fix PADnote and Oscilgen copy/paste - for quicker sound design
- Fix Midi unlearn - If you want to map that knob to something else...
- Other miscellaneous bug fixes
- New Presets in the 'olivers-other' bank.
That should fix any case of the Mondays. And here’s the contribution score
card by number of commits since 2.5.2:
36 Christopher A. Oliver
29 Mark McCurry
28 Filipe Coelho
12 Olivier Jolly
2 Jaromír Mikeš
1 Johannes Lorenz
1 Friedolino

Many thanks to them and all others who contributed by submitting feedback,
bug reports, troubleshooting, or even just making music. We’d love to see
more!
Now go make some noise!
