[ANN] Vee One Suite 0.9.7 - Spring-Break'19 Release batch #2

by Rui Nuno Capela

Wholly cheers! The 'Vee One Suite' of 'old-school' software instruments are here again and now released for the second QStuff* Spring-Break'19 batch post-LAC2019 [12] frenzy: * synthv1 0.9.7 [1] * samplv1 0.9.7 [2] * drumkv1 0.9.7 [3] * padthv1 0.9.7 [4] All still delivered 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 are that there are quite a few fixes since previous releases: - Corrected sample offset and loop range internal reset (samplv1 [2] and drumkv1 [3] only). - All audio input now get through without being processed by any or whole effects stage anymore. - Re-defined all JACK stand-alone client application UNIX signal handling. - Probable fix to sample offset and loop range changes across native UI and loading and saving state. (samplv1 [2] and drumkv1 [3] only). 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.

(Speaking from long experience as gigging guitarist and bassist). The GA-1 tuner I mentioned isn't a true chromatic tuner, but its ability to shift the standard guitar tunings down several semitones is very useful. In modern metal genres C or B tunings are probably more common than the standard EADGBE, so this isn't just an edge case. John

'A' note Tuning Range

by Will Godfrey

Currently in 'Scales' Yoshimi can set this anywhere between 1Hz and 2kHz, which is frankly ridiculous. This doesn't appear at all in the Scala documentation, so that's no guide. I've had suggestions ranging from +- 1/2 semitone to +- half octave as being more than enough, considering that there is also semitone master key shift covering +- 3 octaves (used to be 5!) along with a fine detune of +63 -64 cents. What have other synth people here set for this? Does anyone else actually have the setting? -- Will J Godfrey http://www.musically.me.uk Say you have a poem and I have a tune. Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.

Jack Internal Clients

by Spencer Jackson

Hi all: I've been trying to make my OSC2MIDI app work as an internal client for the MOD Duo. However I've got some misunderstanding or something. I'm first just trying it on desktop (debian) but even compiling the example internal client at https://github.com/jackaudio/jack2/blob/develop/example-clients/inprocess.c and running lack_load /home/spencer/inprocess yeilds the same result as when I try to run osc2midi. It fails with the message intclient = 0 status = 0x1 Are the internal clients supposed to be in a special directory or something? I haven't had any luck with the googles for documentation or examples beyond the source for the client. My source is at https://github.com/ssj71/OSC2MIDI/tree/jack_internal/src if it helps. If more information about my system or whatever would be helpful just let me know. Thanks, _Spencer

[LAA] [LAU] Guitarix 0.38.1 Bug Fix release

by Hermann Meyer

Guitarix release 0.38.1 Guitarix is a tube amplifier simulation for jack (Linux), with an additional mono and a stereo effect rack. Guitarix includes a large list of LV2 and LADSPA plugins, and support LADSPA / LV2 plugs as well in it's racks. The guitarix engine is designed for LIVE usage, and feature ultra fast, glitch and click free preset switching and is full Midi and remote controllable (the Web UI is not included in the distributed tar ball). *This is a critical bug-fix release.* In version 0.38.0 the state (preset) wasn't loaded correctly by the engine on startup, this release fix that. When you've already upgraded to 0.38.0, please consider to update again to 0.38.1 Still the LV2 plugins coming with guitarix using a Gtkmm based UI, I'll work on it to port them to X11 based UI's.

Latency measurements: External round-trip vs. absolute in/out values

by Tim

With a discussion about latency in the Jack lists, I thought I ask a question I've been wondering: By connecting a cable from a HW output to a HW input, one can measure the round-trip latency. But if the purpose is to try to determine the absolute output latencies of the output port and the input port, by say, dividing the round-trip value by 2 and assuming this value applies to both ports, then won't this concept fail if the output port has a different latency than the input port? Say, by using two different devices for the input and output ports. I find myself asking what exactly transport position is and how it relates to the data in the outside physical world. I wonder if it would make sense to build an external hardware transport position indicator so that the latency test signals could be compared with it. For example to measure an output port's latency: ------>--[HW transport position indicator]-->--- [PC]------- | --- | | | -->-[Audio output port]-------->---[Comparator] | | -----<--[Delay measurement]-------<----------- The remaining unknown - the input port latency would be given by subtracting this measured value from the total round-trip latency. Sound crazy? Thanks. Tim.
