Howdy,
Once again, the 'Vee One Suite' of 'old-school' software instruments,
featuring a 'gang of three' made of synthv1 [1] as a polyphonic
synthesizer, samplv1 [2] a polyphonic sampler and drumkv1 [3] as a
drum-kit sampler, are being released into the wild as in so called
'beta' phase.
Changes for this one third beta release are as follows:
- MIDI bank-select/program-changes is now supported, for patch, preset
and/or instrument program control.
- New Help/Configure dialog is introduced for editing the also new MIDI
bank/programs interface and user preference options as well (new home of
the old Help/Use native dialogs option).
- Presets may now be specified by base name, as an alternative to the
complete preset file-path on command line argument (re. stand-alone JACK
client).
- Fixed parameters A/B comparison swap.
As usual, all made available in dual form:
- a pure stand-alone JACK [4] client with JACK-session, NSM [5] (Non
Session management) and both JACK MIDI and ALSA [6] MIDI input support;
- a LV2 [7] instrument plug-in.
The Vee One Suite are free and open-source Linux Audio software,
distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL) [8]
version 2 or later.
Details are dumped below, business as usual ;)
