Hello all,
Several users have reported instability problems (AKA 'crashes')
with Aeolus 0.9.7 and 0.9.8.
This should be fixed in version 0.9.9, as usual available on
<http://kokkinizita.linuxaudio.org/linuxaudio/downloads>
Ciao,

Hello,
are there some more examples how to use jacktools?
I'm mostly interested ind JackPlayer and JackGainctl.
thank you in advance,
all the best,
Vince
MCPDISP is a utility to add a display on to a Mackie Control based
control surface that does not have it's own display such as the bcf2000.
This is important if banking is being used (the project has more than 8
tracks) and also provides things like timecode or bar/beat readouts.
At present this is a jackd only utility though it should be possible to
bridge to ALSA using a2jmidid. Perhaps a later version will move to ALSA
MIDI instead.
The latest version can be found at:
https://github.com/ovenwerks/mcpdisp/releases/tag/0.1.1
The main update here is the addition of a build system (meson) rather
than hoping a makefile will just work. Licenced as GPL-2+.
These things should help with packaging.

Linuxaudio.org presents: New Session Manager Version 1.3
New Session Manager (NSM) is a tool to assist music production by
grouping standalone programs into sessions. Your workflow becomes easy
to manage, robust and fast by leveraging the full potential of
cooperative applications.
It is a community version of the "NON Session Manager" and free in every
sense of the word: free of cost, free to share and use, free of spyware
or ads, free-and-open-source.
You can create a session, or project, add programs to it and then use
commands to save, start/stop, hide/show all programs at once, or
individually. At a later date you can then re-open the session and
continue where you left off.
All files belonging to the session will be saved in the same directory.
New-Session-Manager is already included as binary package in Archlinux
and KXStudio and will eventually replace Non-Session-Manager. You can
find the source release on Github:
https://github.com/linuxaudio/new-session-manager/releases/tag/v1.3
Bullet Points
* Drop-In replacement for the non-session-manager daemon nsmd and tools
(e.g. jackpatch)
* Simple and hassle-free build system to make packaging easy
* Possibility to react to sensible bug fixes that would not have been
integrated into original nsmd
* Stay upwards and downwards compatible with original nsmd
* Conservative and hesitant in regards to new features and
behaviour-changes, but possible in principle
* Keep the session-manager separate from the other NON* tools Mixer,
Sequencer and Timeline.
* Protect nsmd from vanishing from the internet one day.
* The goal is to become the de-facto standard session manager for Linux
distributions
Changes since non-session-manager v1.2 (2017-07-08)
* Rebranding to "new session manager"
* Upstream GUI tools "non-session-manager" and "nsm-proxy" converted to
standard FLTK instead of a custom toolkit
* New message /nsm/gui/session/root raises NSM_API_VERSION_MINOR from 0
to 1 (1.0 -> 1.1)
* Changed build system to meson
* License upgraded to GPLv3
* Simplified file structure
* Fix compiler warnings.
This is a joint release from multiple people under the linuxaudio.org
"brand".

Hello everyone,
I'm trying to install and use zita-jacktools, but unfortunately I don't
get it to work.
https://media.ccc.de/v/lac2018-46-jacktools_realtime_audio_processors_as_py…
I managed to compile it and install it.
According to
http://linux-audio.4202.n7.nabble.com/zita-jacktools-available-now-td106280…,
I needed also to compile zita-convolver 4.0.0 first, which I did, and
which also went well.
I've done the following:
1. download and unpack:
- zita-audiotools
- zita-jacktools
- zita-jclient
- zita-convolver 4.0
2. make and install zita-jclient and zita-convolver:
- go to source, them make, then sudo make install
3. install zita-audiotools and zita-jacktools:
- go to folder, then python3 setup.py build
- then install with sudo python3 setup.py install
Now I can import jacktools in Python without errors. But if I try to use
it OR to run an example file (e.g. tobspect.py like in the ccc video), I
get the following error:
ImportError: libzita-jclient.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No
such file or directory
In the nabble thread, a user said that zita-jclient is installed to
/usr/local/lib64, but zita-jacktools only included /usr/lib as the
library path.
So I copied libzita-convolver and libzita-jclient from /usr/local/lib64
to /usr/lib, but I still get the same error message.
Does someone have any hint? I'm developing a open source Python
application, where I really need fast and rock solid interpolation for
the mixer faders, so I'd really love to use JackGainctl for this....
Here the full error message:
File "/media/sda7/Programming/Python/jacktooltest/main.py", line 3, in
<module>
   from jacktools import jackkmeter
 File
"/usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/jacktools/jackkmeter.py", line
22, in <module>
   from jacktools.jackclient import JackClient
 File
"/usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/jacktools/jackclient.py", line
21, in <module>
   from jacktools import jackclient_ext
ImportError: libzita-jclient.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No
such file or directory
Thank you for any help!
All the best,
Vince
Hi All,
I have updated my control utility for the Tascam US4x4 to support the rest
of the options that the windows settings utility supports

Hello,
TC Electronic has a lot of pedals that use their toneprint technology.
They have recently released a new device called the Plethora X5 which slots
5 TC pedal 'models' into a single virtual 'board' and supports 128 'boards'
stored in the Plethora. Visit YouTube for a plethora (sorry) of videos on
the device over the last couple of months.
I purchased one of these devices. It works well (so far). It's Linux
internally running 4.9.47-rt37.
Sadly there are a couple of rather disappointing issues:
1) Nothing new but TC doesn't support Linux with their TonePrint editor. I
see some reports of users running the app with Wine but I cannot be
bothered to do that so I'm using it on a Win10 laptop where my excessive
Native Instruments investments reside. This is manageable but not
preferable for me.
2) The biggest issue - there is apparently no way to back up your settings
which reside in the Plethora X5. The TonePrint editor communicates with the
Plethora over USB or BlueTooth but apparently acting as little more than a
monitor. You can create and edit settings for each of the 5 pedal models
you are running in a single board but it seems the only way to store them
is in the Plethora itself. My (very limited) initial investigation leads me
to believe that there are no data files left on the Windows machine and all
data is only in the Plethora X5. Therefore, be it fire, theft or accident,
if something goes wrong with your Plethora all of your personally created
sounds are lost. (I'm waiting for confirmation of this from TC Electronic
but so far I cannot see why this wouldn't be true.)
Anyway, I'm not a coder but I am technical. If there's someone out there
with an interest of working on some sort of Linux TonePrint support please
get in touch.
Cheers,
Mark Knecht

Hello,
it's time for the first official version of B.Jumblr, a
pattern-controlled audio-stream & sample re-sequencer. From technical
POV it is a delay effect plugin that looks like a step sequencer.
Key features:
* Delay effect plugin
* Use sequencer pattern to set delay / playback position and volume
* Optional manual change of pattern progression and pattern progression
speed
* Works on both, live audio stream and loaded samples
Repository: https://github.com/sjaehn/BJumblr
Releases: https://github.com/sjaehn/BJumblr/releases
For a short preview and how to jumble look to the video tutorial:

Acknowledgments
------------------------
* Milkii Brewster for ideas about principle and features
* Rob van den Berg for the plugin name
Enjoy and have fun
