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...)

FLAC as open standard: help wanted.

by Jörn Nettingsmeier

Hi *! A friend and fellow free software enthusiast is trying to get FLAC standardized with the IETF to foster its use as a long-term archive format. If anyone here can see themselves drafting RFCs and helping with the tedium of such a process, please write to me off-list.

Re: [LAD] youtube blocks LAC 2017 May 18 AM

by Thomas Cipierre

Dear LAC2017, I’m part of the LAC2017 committee, and was nearly all the time involved in the IRC #LAC2017 freenode channel as tcUJM (except one chairing session). For those who were there, I already replied that there was actually a real copyright problem, since Thierry indeed used copyrighted material during his talk. However, he has the right to do so, having all the documents needed on INA (standing for Institut National de l’Audiovisuel – which could be translated to Audiovisual National Institute) material, so we are currently solving this problem. Philippe, our LAC streaming technician is working onto this – but he needs some more time to edit videos, since he is needed on a lot of other projects in our university. We are sorry for the temporary side-effect on Harry’s brilliant talk. Thanks to all of you, I was thrilled being involved in this LAC and meeting several of you. I definitely look forward to seeing you again on forums, mailing lists and in future projects. All the best, Thomas CIPIERRE Phd. Student at Jean Monnet University (Saint-Étienne)

launch-step: a step sequencer for Novation Launchpads

by Kaspar Emanuel

Hey all, I wrote a MIDI step sequencer for the old Novation Launchpads. It has quite a few different scales (thanks to the tonal package on NPM), let's you change the sequence length on the fly and set lower velocities by holding down the pads. Demo: https://youtu.be/dS_x-FioqHM Code and installation instructions: https://github.com/kasbah/launch-step Cheers, Kaspar

Implementing software knob behaviour

by Christopher Arndt

Hi all, I'm currently trying to write a software MIDI/OSC control panel in Kivy/Python [1]. I want to implement a sensible knob behaviour but I have trouble getting this right. The general idea is: - Click (starting somewhere in the area of the knob control) and drag upwards/downwards (y-axis) increases / decreases the value. - Dragging left/right (x-axis) decreases step size of increments / decrements. - Each knob has a min/max value. My questions are: - What should I use as the reference point for finding the distance of the movement? The centre of the knob or where the first touch event occurred? - Should I apply the distance to the value directly or use the distance as a relative value (i.e. increment / decrement to the value when the touch started)? If the former, how do I prevent value jumps? - Or, to put it another way: how do you guys actually implement knob behaviour? Chris [1] http://kivy.org/

[ANN] Qtractor 0.8.2 - A Stickier Tauon release

by Rui Nuno Capela

And now for something ultimately pretty much expected: the Qstuff* pre-LAC2017 [7][8] release frenzy wrap up! Qtractor 0.8.2 (a stickier tauon) is released! Change-log: - Track-name uniqueness is now being enforced, by adding an auto-incremental number suffix whenever necessary. - Attempt to raise an internal transient file-name registry to prevent automation/curve files to proliferate across several session load/save (re)cycles. - Track-height resizing now meets immediate visual feedback. - A brand new user preference global option is now available: View/Options.../Plugins/Editor/Select plug-in's editor (GUI) if more than one is available. - More gradient eye-candy on main track-view and piano-roll canvases, now showing left and right edge fake-shadows. - Fixed the time entry spin-boxes when changing time offset or length fields in BBT time format that goes across any tempo/time-signature change nodes. - French (fr) translation update (by Olivier Humbert, thanks). 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.
