Hello all,<br><br>The second development release of arpage is available on sourceforge in source tarball and SVN formats:<br><br>
   Tarball:  <a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/arpage/">http://sourceforge.net/projects/arpage/</a><br>
<br>
   SVN:  <a href="https://arpage.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/arpage/branches">https://arpage.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/arpage/branches</a><br>
             <a href="https://arpage.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/arpage/tags">https://arpage.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/arpage/tags</a><br><br>I&#39;d like to thank everyone for the feedback I received on 0.1 -  Please check this out and let me know what you think, or if you have problems building/running. <br>

<br>The UI is still dead-boring GTK, but I&#39;ve read back over the LAD threads regarding audio-oriented UI libraries and I&#39;m thinking of investigating libproaudio with the next release.<br><br><br>The 0.2 Development release adds:<br>

<br>- Smaller UI - probably not Netbook friendly yet, but getting closer :)<br><br>- UI should be dependent upon GTK+ 2.12 (rather than 2.16 as with the first release).<br><br>- An additional executable named &quot;zonage&quot; which allows the MIDI note input to be split into 4 ranges.  <br>


  This is useful for routing sections of your MIDI keyboard to different JACK inputs - e.g. route the lower half to arpage, and the upper half to a &quot;lead&quot; sound, so you can &quot;solo&quot; over the arpeggiator.<br>


<br>- The ability to have a pulse duration (time between note-on and note-off) be longer than the interval between pulses (time between note-on and subsequent note-on).<br>  This is useful when routing the output of one arpeggiator to the input of the next arpeggiator.  Experiment and hear it :)<br>

<br>- Noticeable decrease in the number of stuck notes (I haven&#39;t experienced ANY with this version yet).<br><br><br>Basic features/requirements (same as 0.1 Alpha):<br>
<br>- svn / tarball only for now<br>- gtkmm-based, so dev packages for gtkmm and friends are needed to build (and obviously jack)<br>- I&#39;ve only built it on Ubuntu Studio (karmic) 64bit.  I&#39;m looking for others to let me know if it builds/runs elsewhere.<br>


<br>- requires JACK time master to be rolling for the arpeggiators to do anything.  Qtractor and Seq24 have worked well for me.<br>- will pass midi events thru when JACK time master is not rolling.<br><br>- 4 arpeggiators with transpose, interval, range, note duration selectable thru UI.<br>


- Each arp has it&#39;s own JACK midi in and out port, so you can cascade arpeggiators.<br><br>-
Preliminary support for scales and modes - all of them are not correct,
but try major, dorian, diminished and augmented for starters :)<br>
<br>It sounds great with each arpeggiator driving an instance of calf mono.  Check out the ogg/mp3 clip on sourcefourge.<br><br>Thanks all,<br><br>Looking forward to any and all feedback.<br><br>
