Hi, LAUs! I'm trying to understand how IR.lv2 <https://github.com/Anchakor/ir.lv2> (I'm using the 1.3.2-1kxstudio1 version) manages IR files ; I have this quite long list of Lexicon480L files <http://www.housecallfm.com/download-gns-personal-lexicon-480l>, it's in AIFF format, and first, the files don't show up when you click the "Open file" button, you have to remove the "audio files" filter and use "all files" and then you can only select ONE file ; And then, if I want to try another file, I lose the first one! It's gone, if I want it again I'll have to "Open" it anew :( And there's this "Bookmarks" window/pane : When I click "add" I get a directory requester, if I select my dir (note that at this point, I *can* see all my aif files inside it, only greyed out) then OK, fine, I have a "Lexicon 480L" bookmark, but clicking on it does nothing :( I guess my IR file management is broken..? Note that this works in Klangfalter, it remembers where the files are, I just have to click one in the list to load it ; But Then again Klangfalter tends to refuse to work when I need it the most (you know, "because its buffer-size requirements cannot be satisfied") so I wanted to try out IR.lv2. Is this file management thing working at you guys? Is there some config file where I can get it to work with aif files too? Thank you for your patience ; my album is going forward, check out yesterday's tune <https://soundcloud.com/yassinphilip/amazone-session-2017-07-06-1903> :) -- Yassin Philip New album NOW http://yassinphilip.bitbucket.io

[LAU] [LAA] Guitarix 0.35.4 released

by Hermann Meyer

Guitarix release 0.35.4 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 release removes the dependency to webkitgtk-1.0, which is deprecated in most distributions those day's. Instead the old Preset Web Browser, Guitarix use now Gio::File to fill the new Online Preset Menu were you could inform you about the presets and select them for downloading from https://musical-artifacts.com/ Thanks to lfzawacki (Lucas) for develop and provide the json API for this excellent service side. https://github.com/lfzawacki/musical-artifacts Refer to our project page for more information: http://guitarix.org Download Site: http://sourceforge.net/projects/guitarix/ Forum: http://guitarix.sourceforge.net/forum/ Consider visiting our forum or leaving a message on guitarix-developer(a)lists.sourceforge.net regards hermann

spectmorph-0.3.3

by Stefan Westerfeld

spectmorph-0.3.3 has been released. Overview of Changes in spectmorph-0.3.3: ---------------------------------------- * Added portamento: - VST: support MPE to perform per-voice pitch bend (can be used in Bitwig) - new portamento mono mode (all hosts) * Added vibrato. * Internal improvements: - better property abstraction for (non-linear) UI properties - updated polyphase interpolator (used for vibrato|portamento) - fixed a few problems when developing against spectmorph(ui) libs - don't link against Qt UI library when only QtCore is necessary * Compile fixes for g++-6.3 What is SpectMorph? ------------------- SpectMorph is a free software project which allows to analyze samples of musical instruments, and to combine them (morphing). It can be used to construct hybrid sounds, for instance a sound between a trumpet and a flute; or smooth transitions, for instance a sound that starts as a trumpet and then gradually changes to a flute. SpectMorph ships with many ready-to-use instruments which can be combined using morphing. SpectMorph is implemented in C++ and licensed under the GNU LGPL version 3 Integrating SpectMorph into your Work ------------------------------------- In order to make music that contains SpectMorph, you currently need to use Linux. There are four ways of integrating SpectMorph sounds into music you create: - LV2 Plugin, for any sequencer that supports it. - VST Plugin, especially for proprietary solutions that don't support LV2. - JACK Client. - BEAST Module, integrating into BEASTs modular environment. Note that at this point, we may still change the way sound synthesis works, so newer versions of SpectMorph may sound (slightly) different than the current version. Links: ------ Website: http://www.spectmorph.org Download: http://www.spectmorph.org/downloads/spectmorph-0.3.3.tar.bz2 There are many audio demos on the website, which demonstrate morphing between instruments. -- Stefan Westerfeld, Hamburg/Germany, http://space.twc.de/~stefan

[ANN] WhySynth DSSI softsynth 20170701 release

by Sean Bolton

I'm pleased to announce the 20170701 release of WhySynth, a DSSI softsynth plugin featuring four oscillators per voice, multiple oscillator, filter, and envelope modes, effects, and more. New since the last release: * Over 100 new patch presets, thanks to Brian Collins at linuxsynths.com. * Patches now have a 'category' field, with which you can organize the patch list. * Fixes for a couple security concerns, a pile of bugs, and a raft of compiler warnings. * A change to the default knob behavior. * No new synthesis features (yet). See below for information on potential breakage or confusion caused by these changes. Find WhySynth here: http://smbolton.com/whysynth.html More information on the DSSI plugin standard, available hosts and plugins can be found here: http://dssi.sourceforge.net/ WhySynth is written and copyright (c) 2017 by Sean Bolton, and licensed under the GNU General Public License, version 2. Oh, goody, breakage and confusion: * The addition of the category field meant a change to the patch file format. Unfortunately, earlier versions of WhySynth were not designed with forward compatibility in mind. If you save patches in the new 'version 1' format, older WhySynths will not be able to load them. If you save patches in the old 'version 0' format, both older and current versions of WhySynth can use them. (Current versions can even save and load the categories using 'version 0' format, thanks to a bit of a hack, but don't round-trip from new to old to new versions of WhySynth, or you'll lose your categories.) * This release changes the default mouse button bindings of the knobs. Previously, dragging mouse button 1 made changes in angular mode: the knob would (quite abruptly) move to point toward the mouse pointer. Dragging mouse button 3 used to operate in linear mode, where moving the pointer vertically or horizontally would make smooth incremental changes. This release swaps that behavior between the two buttons, to what I think is a more usable default. If you prefer the old behavior, you can add the following to your ~/.gtkrc-2.0: gtk-control-rotary-prefer-angular = 1 Have fun! -Sean

[ANN] Qtractor 0.8.3 - The Stickiest Tauon is out!

by Rui Nuno Capela

Howdy! Qtractor 0.8.3 (stickiest tauon) is out! Changes for this mostly just a bug-fix beta release: - Make sure any just recorded clip filename is not reused while over the same track and session. (CRITICAL) - LV2 Plug-in worker/schedule interface ring-buffer sizes have been increased to 4KB. - Fixed track-name auto-incremental numbering suffix when modifying any other track property. - WSOLA vs. (lib)Rubberband time-stretching options are now individualized on a per audio clip basis. - Long overdue, some brand new and fundamental icons revamp. - Fixed a tempo-map node add/update/remove rescaling with regard to clip-lengths and automation/curve undo/redo. - Fixed a potential Activate automation/curve index clash, or aliasing, for any plug-ins that change upstream their parameter count or index order, on sessions saved with the old plug-in versions and vice-versa. 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.

Linux Support for Focusrite Scarlett 18i20 2nd Generation

by Lloyd Dickman

I am trying to make a Focusrite Scarlett 18i20 (2nd Generation) work as a USB audio capture device with Linux. Using the most current Linux kernel without change (v4.12-rc6), Mic inputs 1 and 2 are successfully captured. However, no other inputs are heard. The Scarlett device also presents a very limited set of ALSA controls. exxothermic@exxothermic-BFC:~$ lsusb Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub Bus 001 Device 002: ID 1235:8201 Focusrite-Novation Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub exxothermic@exxothermic-BFC:~$ amixer -c 1 contents numid=3,iface=MIXER,name='ADAT Validity' ; type=BOOLEAN,access=rw------,values=1 : values=on numid=4,iface=MIXER,name='Clock Source' ; type=ENUMERATED,access=rw------,values=1,items=3 ; Item #0 'Internal' ; Item #1 'S/PDIF' ; Item #2 'ADAT' : values=0 numid=1,iface=MIXER,name='Internal Validity' ; type=BOOLEAN,access=rw------,values=1 : values=on numid=2,iface=MIXER,name='S/PDIF Validity' ; type=BOOLEAN,access=rw------,values=1 : values=on I modified sound/usb driver files mixer_quirks.c and mixer_scarlett.c to treat the Scarlett 2nd generation device the same way it handles the Scarlett 1st generation 0x1235:0x800c 1st Generation 0x1235:0x8201 2nd Generation When checking with amixer, 228 controls are now listed, along with errors that prevent alsamixer from being used.

OSC-generating plugin?

by Jörn Nettingsmeier

Hi *! Does anybody know of a decent free plugin that generates arbitrary OSC command streams from plugin automation data in the DAW? Preferrably (gasp!) VST? Idea is to use SomeEvilDAW to send and control smart things on a box running a friendly OS and a FriendlyDAW.

Release v0.1: IConnectivity MIDI Configuration Utility

by holger＠dehnhardt.org

Dear linux audio users and developers, (crossposting as usual for releases) at the end of the last year I bought a new MIDI interface. I decided to buy a IConnectivity MIO10 as it comes closest to my old (MOTU MIDI Express XT) as it was reported to work flawless with linux. It did, regarding the MIDI-Part, but as usual, the configuration was not possible with linux. As WINE did not work for me as well, I decided to create my own utility. And here it is: https://github.com/dehnhardt/mioconfig Currently it does support only a small part of the configuration possibilities, the interface provides (Read the RELEASENOTES.md for further information) and is prealphabetasomewhat - but as I did not implement firmware updates - it should (and in my case did not) not break the device. The utility should work with most IConnectivity MIDI devices but I ownly could test ist with my device. There are *no* precompiled packages at the moment, you have to build them. (It is based on QT) But I really apprecciate every input (please use the github issues) - and if someone wwould like to enable compiling under Windows or Mac (which should work as I use QT an RTMidi) - you are very welcome! All the best Holger

Does some proaudo stuff uses raw linux devices?

by Nikita Zlobin

Hello all. While configuring kernel, i stucked on option CONFIG_RAW_DRIVER, which enables /dev/raw device section. I suppose, things like linuxsampler or others, hardly working with storage, might utilize this access way for most direct access to samples. Or even in audio recording (only nearly imaginations). Is it so really? While searching in internet to learn about its real status, i got 2 facts: - When raw device is mapped to some hda/sda dev, allowing to use it even bypassing disk's internal cache. https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/238798/what-happened-to-dev-raw - Yet i found proposal to remove raw devices support, argumented as these devices have no notable use. http://lkml.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0505.2/1387.html (but that discussion is sooo old...)
