(sha1sum d37977c1a07f6d1a46e673614a2be47881cc7bce)
Changes since the last release (20150530)
* All plugins
- now have LV2 required version numbers
- feature built-in documentation/description
Plugin descriptions are now 100% spec conform and survived
pedantic inspection by the LV2 high inquisitor (falkTX ['s script]).
There have been various small build-system and packaging tweaks reported
by distros in the wake of the previous release last month.
Many thanks to Jaromir Mikes (debian), Edgar Aichinger (openSuSe) and
Filipe Coelho (KXstudio).
Likewise portability has been further improved. While developed an
targeted at GNU/Linux, all plugins now on run reliably on all major OS
and support over 20 CPU architectures.
Thanks to Jean-Luc Nest, Chris Goddart and Harrisonconsoles for QA on
OSX and Windows.

Kudos to Fons Adriaensen, some of the DSP code goes back to him and he
provided very valuable feedback and advise throughout the development of
what became x42-plugins over the years.
Also to David Robillard who laid the LV2 groundwork and made portable
free audio-plugins a possibility in the first place.
Last but not least, many thanks to libremusicproduction.com and
libregraphicsworld.org for continued support and publicity.
have fun,

Please pardon cross-posting. I am pleased to announce the availability of
csound.node. This addon for NW.js implements the complete integration of
Csound and HTML5 on desktop platforms. It has been tested on WIndows and
Linux.
The same capabilities are available in current versions of CsoundQt and
Csound for Android, but csound.node is easier to build and supports the
development of standalone applications such as sound art and computer music
installations, visual music pieces, self-contained interactive
compositions, kiosk-type applications, and so on.
For for more information, including build instructions and configuration,
see https://github.com/csound/csound/tree/develop/frontends/nwjs.
Prebuilt binaries and examples are available in the Windows installer at
http://sourceforge.net/projects/csound/files/csound6/Csound6.05/Setup_Csoun…
(this still requires installing NW.js and some configuration). On other
platforms, building csound.node should be simple.
A version of this Windows installer with all VST features of Csound enabled
(Cabbage, vst4cs for hosting VST plugins in Csound, and CsoundVST) will
soon be available on my Web site, http://michaelgogins.tumblr.com.
Regards,
Mike

With many many bugfix and improvement patches from Albert Graef, it's time
for a new release! We absolutely recommend updating to take advantage of
the new features.
Notable improvements include:
-OSC messages can now "remember" variable values when an incoming MIDI
message only contains part of the data (i.e.converting 2 different CCs to
an OSC message for an XY controller)
-MIDI values are now limited if they attempt to exceed max or below min
-better handling of "exotic" types like 'm'
-more consistent printing formatting in verbose mode
-better feedback on parse errors in mapping files
-inclusion of maps for all the default interfaces of touchOSC
-project move to github
-sundry bugfixes
Please download and give it a try:
https://github.com/ssj71/OSC2MIDI/releases
(note the link has changed since last release)
Enjoy!

Radium is a music editor with a new type of interface. It's inspired by
trackers, but uses graphics to show musical data.
Most important changes between 3.0 and 3.1.3:
* Many stability issues fixed
* Fixed automation
* Pianoroll
* Option to record MIDI line by line and monophonic in the MIDI menu. (as
before)
* Add options to multiply the number of lines to scroll by the "Edit lines"
value
* MIDI: Option to always record velocity
* A new sound object called "Midi Messages" which can be used to send MIDI
messages to other sound objects. Can for instance be used to send pitch
bend changes to VST plugins.
* Option to show line numbers instead of bars/beats
* Sort notes by pitch for same-positioned notes.
* VST: Fix for plugins using "main" instead of "VSTPluginMain".
G'day.
setBfree is a MIDI-controlled, software synthesizer designed to imitate
the sound and properties of the electromechanical organs and sound
modification devices that brought world-wide fame to the names and
products of Laurens Hammond and Don Leslie.
http://setbfree.orghttps://github.com/pantherb/setBfree
It's been over 18 months since the last release and setBfree just
reached another major milestone: It now features a proper GUI that
allows to configure various aspects that have previously only been
accessible via text config files (the config and program file-format
itself has not changed). The GUI is available as LV2 and standalone jack
application and the old tcl/tk prototype UI was removed for good.
visit https://vimeo.com/130633814 for a demo.
The 2nd big change was reworking the Leslie: The horn now spins
counter-clockwise (same as the real thing) and we finally managed to
track down the aliasing noise that was audible during acceleration and
deceleration. Since various users play guitar and some even cello
through it, an animated LV2 GUI was added for the whirl-speaker
emulation and it has also been made available as standalone jack client.
Advanced settings such as microphone angle, position, horn radius, etc
are now also exposed (both for the organ as well as the LV2). The UI
looks like
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pantherb/setBfree/master/doc/b_whirl.png
Other notable changes include new addition of presets for Kurzweil and
Korg CX3 and updates to portability (ARM-CPU/RPi, Windows + OSX
versions). The full list of over 300 changes since 0.7.5 is available as
git log.
Binaries for Intel platform, GNU/Linux, OSX and Windows are available
from https://github.com/pantherb/setBfree/releases/latest
though for Linux most distros will pick this up as usual.
Many thanks to Axel 'the C.L.A.' Müller and Jean-Luc Nest who provided
valuable feedback and inspiring music during the development cycle.
happy playing,
robin + will
Version 2.6 of the Vamp plugin SDK is now available.
http://www.vamp-plugins.org/
Vamp is a plugin API for audio analysis and feature extraction plugins
written in C or C++. Its SDK features an easy-to-use set of C++ classes
for plugin and host developers, a reference host implementation, example
plugins, and documentation. It is supported across Linux, OS/X, and
Windows.
A documentation guide to writing plugins using the Vamp SDK can be found
at http://www.vamp-plugins.org/guide.pdf.
Version 2.6 is a bugfix and minor enhancement release. For more details,
see the changelog at
http://code.soundsoftware.ac.uk/projects/vamp-plugin-sdk/repository/entry/C…

Ambisonics has a strong community using Linux, therefore I ask the community
herein for art works:
"Pure Ambisonics" == "Ambisonics as an art form" is the hypotheses
We are searching for different works, which need not be recent ones, also
historic ones are of interest. Preferring higher order 3D, we take any order
3D or 2D as long it represents a wave-field as a spatial audio work ready for
concert. To test this thesis a concert is scheduled:
- PURE Ambisonics Concert & the Night of Ambisonics -
September 18th at ICSA 2015 in Graz
Preferring the AmbiX format, we also take other formats as long the
description has enough information to convert them to this domain.
