Hey guys! I am trying out Highlife LV2, got it from here: http://distrho.sourceforge.net/ports.php In my case it does not display in Carla (external GUI looks like a small box). Displays fine as a standalone and as LV2 in Qtractor, but when I click Import File - nothing happens. Problem is that I am still on Ubuntu 10.04 and desperately don't want to upgrade since most things I need work and I enjoy this version very much. Is there anything I can do to make Highlife work? -- Louigi Verona http://www.louigiverona.ru/

Well, that explains why there's a separate ALSA tab in QJackCtl. And, yes, I'm using the ALSA tab to make my connections. So, at this point, it seems I don't really need jack. Just a side question: if I had an application that uses audio and midi (like Sonar), who keeps them in sync?

So the queue has its own clock? Can I create the queue, push events to it, then start it? And if I then stop the queue and later continue, will it process the rest of the events from where it left off when it was stopped? > Assuming that you want to use the ALSA Sequencer, and not jack midi, I can > provide some working examples. > > As per your request, a simple metronome program in C > http://lalists.stanford.edu/lau/2009/08/att-0005/ametro.c > > You can check as well the examples in my drumstick library (Qt4, C++) > http://drumstick.sourceforge.net/docs/metronome.cpp-example.html Perfect. And you pre-answered my next question. Is there a C++ wrapper for ALSA? And uses Qt too! Nice. Thanks. -- 7:8

Jack dropping connections ?

by Fons Adriaensen

Hello all, I'm seeing a strange problem with the WFS system at the Casa del Suono. It consists of a number of Jack apps managed by a python program which in turn takes its input from 'player' like remote control apps running on two EEEs used by the musem staff. Some of the port connections are fixed, some are made or unmade by the python program according to the item chosen on the player interface. Twice now, after a few weeks of 'uptime', some of the fixed connections have disappeared. Everything else remains normal, the whole system still functions (apart from some missing audio signals) and restoring the connections manually is all that is required. No errors or whatever in any of the log files. The connections that are lost are always between the same two apps, both of which only have fixed connections. In other words there is nothing in the python control program that ever touches any ports of those two apps. So I'm wondering what's happening here. Anyone else running jack1 uninterrupted for months noticed anything strange ? Ciao, -- FA A world of exhaustive, reliable metadata would be an utopia. It's also a pipe-dream, founded on self-delusion, nerd hubris and hysterically inflated market opportunities. (Cory Doctorow)

[ANN] Qtractor 0.5.7 - The Hotel Sierra is open, come on in!

by Rui Nuno Capela

Greetings, Yeah. Not much to tell about the times I'm afraid. But let me wish you all a merry and great new year, following the one which end is nigh. Just in case you wanna party, feel welcome, by all means: Qtractor 0.5.7 (hotel sierra) is open, come on in! Release highlights: * LV2 Options and Buf-size support (NEW) * Location markers/bar (NEW) * MIDI editor line-drawing (NEW) * Punch & loop recording compatibility (FIX) * Untangled LV2 UI parameter communication (FIX) * Dropped libSLV2 support, honoring libLILV for good (FIX) Website: http://qtractor.sourceforge.net Project page: http://sourceforge.net/projects/qtractor Downloads: - source tarball: http://downloads.sourceforge.net/qtractor/qtractor-0.5.7.tar.gz - source package (openSUSE 12.2): http://downloads.sourceforge.net/qtractor/qtractor-0.5.7-4.rncbc.suse122.sr… - binary packages (openSUSE 12.2): http://downloads.sourceforge.net/qtractor/qtractor-0.5.7-4.rncbc.suse122.i5… http://downloads.sourceforge.net/qtractor/qtractor-0.5.7-4.rncbc.suse122.x8… - quick start guide & user manual: http://downloads.sourceforge.net/qtractor/qtractor-0.5.x-user-manual.pdf Weblog (upstream support): http://www.rncbc.org License: Qtractor is free, open-source software, distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL) version 2 or later. Change-log: - Loop and punch in/out ranges may now get set simultaneously, may even overlap each other. However, punch in/out range recording will always prevail over any loop recording takes. - LV2 Worker/Schedule now supporting multi-instance vs. single-UI scenarios. - LV2 Options and Buf-size extension support added. - Fixed an off-by-one-tick bug on MIDI file input which was leaving spurious zero-length runt notes at the end of a MIDI clip, if a note-on coincides with the ending/split point (on ticket issued by Jonathan H. Pickard, thanks). - Good old SLV2 library support for LV2 plug-ins (libslv2) is now irrevocably deprecated, or better said, completely wiped-out from the LV2 host code, now considered extinct. - LV2 UI parameter updates are now asynchronously detached from the source GUI widget thread, in attempt to improve cross-GUI-toolkit responsiveness, specially focused on LV2 plugins with a GTK based UI (eg. amsynth, triceratops, etc.). - Make sure LV2 UI parameters (input control ports) get updated when loading a genuine LV2 state preset. - Improved the (custom) tempo spin-box widget signal(ing) processing and dispatching. - Show proper pointing cursor and location tool-tip while dragging any of the time ruler markers (including latest location markers/bar). - On saving as an archive/zip session file (suffix .qtz) include only those files that are actually referenced by live clips arrangement. - Ongoing integration of location markers infrastructure (time-scale and MIDI-file support). - Free-hand/linear retouching of event values, while on the MIDI clip editor's view pane below the main piano-roll (eg. note velocities), is now possible provided the target events are selected, otherwise the usual painting edit sub-mode applies (cf. menu Edit/Select Mode/Edit Draw). - The MIDI clip editor now senses which target view pane has focus for general selection commands (cf. Edit/Select/None, All, Invert, Range) whether the main piano-roll or the event value (velocities) view. - Mouse middle-button clicking is back in business on main track-view and on MIDI clip editor views (piano-roll) as an immediate play-head (re)positioning command or merge/reset the edit-head/tail cursors if Shift/Ctrl keyboard modifiers are pressed. - Formerly protected, class qtractorClip::FadeFunctor is now public in an shot-in-the-dark attempt to fix clang builds (as reported by Jekyll Wu, thanks). - Override all sub-classed widgets mouse-pointer event handlers to be isolated from base widget style and/or window management. Enjoy!-- rncbc aka Rui Nuno Capela rncbc(a)rncbc.org

Writing a music notation editor and need some help with MIDI, Jack, and FluidSynth

by M Donalies

I'm using Qt and C++ under Linux with ALSA. Ideally, what I'd like is a simple example like alsa's midiseq.c or a MIDI metronome hooked up to jack so that it outputs to fluidsynth. Then I could see the whole system in action. Is there such an example available? I'm having some trouble understanding how all the pieces fit together. I have a few other questions that aren't directly related: The first has to do with manipulating midi ctlr events to simulate various musical techniques like legato and palm muting. What I've tried so far doesn't sound very good. I need legato in polyphonic mode, so just overlapping notes doesn't work. Sending a legato ctlr message doesn't seem to do anything. I'm not looking for anything real fancy, just something to make trills & slurs sound reasonable. I think all I want to do is to skip the attack portion of the sample. For palm muting, I've shortened the note duration, but I'd like to darken or thicken the timbre. Is there any simple way to do this? Second, I've lifted a lot of glyphs from the Lilypond font and placed them in my own font and I was wondering how and where to credit creators of these glyphs. I've added glyphs of my own (bends, vibrato, etc.) and doctored some others, but many are just cut, pasted, & resized from Lilypond. Before I release any code, I'd like to get the credits properly documented. Thanks, all. -- 7:8

warning: seedy journal possibly targetting LAC authors

by Jörn Nettingsmeier

hi everybody! i just received a personalized spam mail from a very seedy publishing company which apparently has harvested the linux audio conference backlogs. so here's a friendly warning since this might happen to others who have contributed to LACs in the past. this company doesn't check out at all as a relevant publisher, and a number of people have reported that their business model is to bait and hook scholars desperate for publications and then milking them for publication fees. they will also ask for a transfer of copyright. needless to say, david publishing's journals are practically unheard of in the world of serious research, and being in one is very likely to hinder a career rather than foster it. meanwhile, a happy holiday season and may santa bring good publishing opportunities to all scholars who have been well-behaved during the year! jörn -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Call for Papers or Books from Journal of Literature and Art Studies (ISSN 2159-5836) Date: Fri, 21 Dec 2012 13:58:59 +0800 From: literature.art <literature.art(a)davidpublishing.org> To: nettings <nettings(a)stackingdwarves.net> From Knowledge to Wisdom *Journal of Literature and Art Studies, USA* International Standard Serial Number: ISSN2159-5836 (Print),ISSN 2159-5844 (Online)** *Call for Papers and Books* ** Dear Jörn NETTINGSMEIER, This is a journal entitled */Journal of Literature and Art Studies /(ISSN 2159-5836)*published across the United States by David Publishing Company, EL MONTE, CA, USA.We are glad to know you have submitted a paper named:*_Generalpurpose Ambisonic playback systems for electroacoustic concerts - a practical approach _*at Linux Audio Conference 2010.Weare very interested in your research.
