Click-free fade-in algorithm for synths?

by Johannes Lorenz

A note-on event can lead to clicks in synths, which is often fixed by a fade-in algorithm. If the attack rate for a synth's signal is 0, the synth shall not click, and still fade in as fast as possible. What is the best algorithm for fading in a signal, that scales also with small buffersizes, like 32 samples per buffer (at 44100 samples/s)? For example, in zynaddsubfx, we count the ascending zero crossings and calculate the fade-in length upon it [1]. Then, an S-curve of that length is multiplied with the signal. Counting zero crossings prevents clicking on lower notes, and it makes higher notes more punchy. That algorithm works very well for a buffersize of 256 samples (at 44100 samples/s), but it fails at 32 samples (since the zero crossings of 32 samples are often not representive). Any papers, or experience with other synths? We currently need a good solution for (at least) zynaddsubfx and the triple oscillator in LMMS.

Ladies and Gentlemen, this years Sonoj Convention is only a month away. (October 27th and 28th). https://www.sonoj.org/register.html Our list of speakers and talks is as good as finished now (except the start times). We will have a live world premiere of an unreleased open source synth (Vital), two talks about sampled instrument creations (Drumgizmo and an sfz bass), a tracker interface for Ardour, a Qtractor introduction by the author himself, modding old speakers into decent ones, the future of JACK and finally a talk about composing tricks and techniques.. On top there is an open slot for surprises! :) As you have read last time there is no visitor number limit anymore. But you still need to register if you want to come. Now is a good time to do just that: Write a mail to info(a)sonoj.org or use the website https://www.sonoj.org/register.html . Your name and e-mail address are enough. If you don't have time be aware that the whole event will be live streamed and you can interact with us and other remote visitors through a live chat. A link is already on the website.

by Rui Nuno Capela

Summer's gone! So is the austral winter... The 'Vee One Suite' of so called 'old-school' software instruments are now released for the Northern Fall/Autumn season: * synthv1 0.9.10 [1] * samplv1 0.9.10 [2] * drumkv1 0.9.10 [3] * padthv1 0.9.10 [4] All available in dual form: - a pure stand-alone JACK client with JACK-session [5], NSM (Non Session management [6]) and both JACK MIDI and ALSA MIDI [7] input support; - a LV2 instrument plug-in [8]. Changes for this northern autumn'19 release goes like follows: - Upstream packaging is now split on JACK standalone, LV2 plugin and common core and UI packages, similar to recent Debian practice. - Highlight current element/sample/key on the virtual piano keyboard widget. (applies to samplv1 [2] and drumkv1 [3] only) - Added alternate yet non-official CMake build option. - Fix HiDPI display screen effective support (Qt >= 5.6). - All randomizers now compliant to the standard normal distribution. - Make sure compiler flags comply to c++11 as standard. The 'Vee One Suite' are free, open-source Linux Audio [10] software, distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL) [11] version 2 or later. **synthv1 - an old-school polyphonic synthesizer [1] ** synthv1 0.9.10 (early-fall'19) is out! synthv1 is an old-school all-digital 4-oscillator subtractive polyphonic synthesizer with stereo fx.

A bit of 2013 nostalgia!

by Louigi Verona

Hey everyone! I have recovered three tracks that I made during LAC2013. Restored from their sorry state to something more palatable, these 10 minutes of music will allow you to join me on this nostalgic journey and reminisce about times long gone! https://soundcloud.com/louigiverona/sets/lac2013 On track one you can hear samples taken out of the lecture by Rui on QStuff, which I recorded with a mic right there and immediately incorporated into the music. "You are the user!" This is true Linux Audio community lore :D Louigi Verona https://louigiverona.com/

Sonoj Convention 2019 Announcement: Visitor registration, Call for talks, Donations

by Sonoj Convention

Dear Linux Audio Developers, The third annual Sonoj Convention ( https://www.sonoj.org ) will be taking place this upcoming October 26th-27th 2019 in Cologne, Germany. The convention is focusing on the combination of music production and open source software with a priority on practical music production. At Sonoj there will be talks, demonstrations, and workshops from demonstrating basic workflows to detailed instructions on how to subtly improve your sound. While the event will take place in Germany, all presentations and workshops will be in English, recorded and streamed to make them easily accessible to a wide audience. We want to welcome everyone, regardless of your musical or technical background. To get a better idea of what to expect out of Sonoj, you can find information and recordings from last year's convention in our archives: ( https://sonoj.org/archive ) As it was last year, admission to the convention is free, though donations are very much welcome. - Visitor Registration is now possible. The space is limited so please register on our website now. ( https://sonoj.org/register.html ) - We are looking for talks, demonstrations and workshops. If you would like to contribute, please send an informal and short e-mail with your ideas to info(a)sonoj.org - Donations are very welcome. Even if you don't attend personally please consider supporting a non-profit event to promote open source music making and production. We accept direct bank transfer and paypal ( https://www.sonoj.org/donate.html ) Yours, Nils Hilbricht https://www.sonoj.org
