Hello all, For the third time and hopefully the last in the current northern estival season comes the final 'batch-of-one': Qtractor 0.9.9 (summer'19) is out! These are the changes for this Summer'19 release: - Fixed editing and display of 'Pgm Change' events on the MIDI clip editor (aka. piano-roll). - Introducing tempo/beat-detection support on the Clip / Tempo Adjust... dialog (provided libaubio >= 0.4.1 is available); and now also featured with some rough visual clues ;). - Updated for the newer Qt5 development tools (>= 5.13). - Imply asking for a brand new filename (ie. Save As...) whenever the session file original sample-rate differs from the current audio device engine (ie. JACK). - Configure updated to check for qtchooser availability. - Fix MIDI through for LV2 plug-ins that have no MIDI output event/atom ports. Description: Qtractor [1] is an audio/MIDI multi-track sequencer application written in C++ with the Qt framework [2]. Target platform is Linux, where the Jack Audio Connection Kit (JACK [3]) for audio and the Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA [4]) for MIDI are the main infrastructures to evolve as a fairly-featured Linux desktop audio workstation GUI, specially dedicated to the personal home-studio.
