[LAA] 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)

[LAA] [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!

[LAA] rkr lv2 Beta 0 released

by Spencer Jackson

HI all! Would you like 40 more effect plugins? After many months of persistence I have ported the Rakarrack effects to lv2 format. With each effect, the individual effect presets have been ported as well. I am very excited about this project and hope that this can keep the Rakarrack project as one of the highlights of linux audio. Rakarrack is currently in need of a proper maintainer. So if you are interested please contact the developers! I made these ports such that all changes could be ported back into the main codebase. The porting took a lot of manual entry of matching parameter bounds and indices etc.. So as you test and use these, please report any strange behaviour you notice (such as changing the "gain" parameter actually changed the decay time, etc.). I will be trying to test these but it will take me quite some time to give them all a good shake down.Current status is that they all can be loaded by Carla and Jalv, with some audio testing on a few by me, and some testing by other parties. No known issues currently exist. I am currently working on porting the preset banks to Carla rack presets. This will allow us to load any of the presets from Rakarrack and insert it as a single plugin in Ardour or other hosts. I would like to get the community started testing these in parallel with my effort. Once I have that done I will announce a second beta. Not all of the effects were ported, since some were duplicate code, direct copies of ladspa plugins, or redundant of other lv2 plugins (like the looper or colvolotron). The interface was kept close to Rakarrack, but some parameter changes were made for the intent of clarity, such as wet/dry - instead of the original -64 is all wet, 0 a 50/50 wet/dry mix, 63 dry, now 0 means all wet, 127 all dry. Parameter names were altered in places as well (e.g. St. Df. now is labeled "Left/Right LFO delay"). Case by case feedback on these decisions is also welcome. For those unfamiliar with Rakarrack, here are all the effects, marked to show which are in this new plugin bundle: EFFECTS (X - done, W - won't do, + - done with missing features) [X] Lineal EQ [X] Compressor [X] Distortion [W] Overdrive - exact same engine as distortion, but has fewer controls, presets were added to dist. [X] Echo [X] Chorus [W] Phaser - I'm not planning to do this. I'm only interested in the analog phaser version [X] Analog Phaser [W] Flanger - this is identical to the chorus, presets from this will be included there [X] Reverb [X] Parametric EQ [X] Cabinet Emulation [X] AutoPan/Stereo Expander [+] Harmonizer - midi mode was not ported [X] Musical Delay [W] Noise Gate - Direct copy of Steve Harris's Gate ladspa plugin [X] WahWah [X] AlienWah [X] Derelict [X] Valve [X] Dual Flange [X] Ring [X] Exciter [X] DistBand [X] Arpie [X] Expander [X] Shuffle [X] Synthfilter [X] VaryBand [W] Convolotron - other excellent lv2 convolution engines already exist [W] Looper - other good lv2 loopers exist [X] MuTroMojo [X] Echoverse [X] CoilCrafter [X] ShelfBoost [X] Vocoder [X] Sustainer [X] Sequence [X] Shifter [X] StompBox - an extra plugin for fuzz mode was added, as interface is different [X] Reverbtron [X] Echotron [+] StereoHarm - no midi mode [X] CompBand [X] Opticaltrem [X] Vibe [X] Infinity Further help using them can be found at http://rakarrack.sourceforge.net/effects.html . I hope you all find these enjoyable, and make great music with them. Please download and try them at: http://github.com/ssj71/rkrlv2 Enjoy! _Spencer
