by Christian Dittmar

[Please disseminate. Apologies for cross-posting] ISMIR 2015 Reminder for Late-breaking Demo Contributions We would like to remind you of the possibility to submit extended abstracts to the ISMIR 2015 late-breaking demo session. This session is dedicated to the presentation of preliminary results, ideas, applications or system prototypes that are not yet fully formed nor systematically evaluated, but of interest to the MIR community. Authors are encouraged to submit extended one-page (preferred) or two-page (maximum) abstracts to the late-breaking demo session here: https://www.softconf.com/f/ismir2015-lbd/ Submit your late-breaking demo contribution in PDF format according to one of the following templates: http://ismir2015.uma.es/submissionstemplates/ISMIR2015-LBD_tex_template.zip http://ismir2015.uma.es/submissionstemplates/ISMIR2015-LBD_word_template.zip Submissions do not need to be anonymized. Please note that all late-breaking demo presentations will be posters and they may include or not a demo component. Submissions must clearly state if there is to be a demonstration component, and briefly address any special technical requirements. To guarantee the proper allocation of the late-breaking demos in the conference venue, the submission system will be closed by October 26, 2015 . We will screen submissions for formatting compliance after they are received, acceptance/rejection notifications will be sent to authors as soon as the submissions are screened. Please try to upload finished abstracts instead of placeholder documents. This will largely facilitate our job to decide which contributions to accept. Note that at least one author of an accepted late-breaking demo abstract must be registered for the conference and present the work there. All questions should be directly addressed to the ISMIR 2015 late-breaking demo chairs at mailto:ismir2015-latebreak@ismir.net. -- ------------------------------------------------------ Dipl.-Ing.

Infamous Plugins 0.1 -- the Eye-Candy Release

by Spencer Jackson

After a nail-biting wait on the edge of your seats, the Eye-Candy Release is upon us! As promised, the donate/wait goal is now fulfilled and the GUIs for the Infamous Plugins are all released. A lot has changed (even the install process), so check them out. Find them at our new site: http://ssj71.github.io/infamousPlugins As usual please report any bugs you find! As a side note, the donate-wait thing worked pretty well for me, despite resulting in a "deadlock". Since the project was done, and not enough people were interested financially I was able to move on to working on other projects for 11 months (osc2midi and rkr lv2 are the results). I may or may not try it again, but really, if you have several projects that you can rotate around, "just wait" isn't so bad. The whole goal is to bring income to our much-needed developers, I realize that, but this does generate a bit of buzz and a month of time was bought back, which was more than I'd ever received before. Huge thanks to the donors! And to all: enjoy! _Spencer (ssj71)

[ANN] A website for pre-sets, soundfonts, and more

by lucas z

Hey everyone, this is a project I've been working on for some months now and now I think it's ready for some beta testing. https://musical-artifacts.com/ is a place to collect free 'musical artifacts', that is, pre-sets, configuration files, soundfonts, etc. make them searchable and taggable and give credit to authors. For example here are some soundfonts, zyn pre-sets and guitarix tones: https://musical-artifacts.com/artifacts?tags=soundfont https://musical-artifacts.com/artifacts?apps=guitarix https://musical-artifacts.com/artifacts?apps=zynaddsubfx I've started populating the application with some artifacts and will continue doing so in the future. Also the application is in BETA right, so new features are coming and some bugs are to be expected! You can look at the source, contribute or file bugs via github https://github.com/lfzawacki/musical-artifacts That's it!

[ANN] Virtual MIDI Piano Keyboard (VMPK) 0.6.1 released

by Pedro Lopez-Cabanillas

Virtual MIDI Piano Keyboard is a MIDI events generator and receiver. It doesn't produce any sound by itself, but can be used to drive a MIDI synthesizer (either hardware or software, internal or external). You can use the computer's keyboard to play MIDI notes, and also the mouse. You can use the Virtual MIDI Piano Keyboard to display the played MIDI notes from another instrument or MIDI file player. The precompiled packages include the GeneralUser GS SoundFont by S.Christian Collins (http://www.schristiancollins.com/generaluser.php) ready to use with the FluidSynth output driver (also included in these packages, providing beautiful sounds out of the box). Changes for v0.6.1: * Fixes for ALSA (Linux) and Windows input drivers, (provided by Drumstick 1.0.1 libraries) * Packaged using the Qt Frameworks 5.5.0 * Fixed ticket #27: save keyboard maps with default xml extension * Fixed ticket #29: display input event noteon with velocity=0 as noteoff * Color palette management fixes * Updated Russian and Serbian translations Compilation minimum requirements for all platforms: CMake 3.0, Qt 5.1 and Drumstick 1.0 or later. Please use the mailing list <vmpk-devel(a)lists.sourceforge.net> for questions and comments. Thanks.
