Hi all
I'd like to get some feedback on GSequencer v0.7.54. Many things have
changed so far. Good real-time is still a pain especially as doing
much GUI interaction. How-ever I have coded a strategy to counter the
issue.
Here are some new features listed that should work:
* automation editor to automate ports, currently only LADSPA, DSSI and Lv2
* Configuration in place of device, pcm-channels, samplerate, buffer
size and format
* Virtual MIDI mapping to route from GSequencer to DSSI and Lv2
* Notation editor to edit notes of DSSI and Lv2 plugins
Things I'm not sure if still works:
* auto-scroll of notation editor on playback
* export to WAV files with different samplerate and format
All existing features for sure:
* sequencer editors with copy and later for paste in notation editor
* reallocate audio channels and pads
* destroy machines
* link lines
Believed to be broken:
* different threading models than super-thread with channel scope are
believed to be broken
Currently unmaintained:
* Original file format temporally replaced by a light-weight one
Note: having 128 channels on DSSI or Lv2 synths is a bit over-helming.
So you might want to adjust the channels and do MIDI mapping.
Cheers,
Joël Krähemann

Hi
A new release of gxtuner is out.
It's a fast and lightweight guitar tuner with a analogue like window,
running with jack.
In this release we switched to use the latest pitch-tracker algorithm
from guitarix, which is more stable at the low end, and a lot lighter in
the CPU.
For better maintenance of the code, gxtuner is now hosted on github,
Check it out here:
https://github.com/brummer10/gxtuner
Or get the latest release directly here:

It has been like this for as long as I can remember: When I insert a
ZASFX plugin instance in a Qtractor session, gone is the joy I have
editing my session files, because all the ZADSFX entries are messed up:
the "<" character is represented by its ASCII entity: "<" and it make
even my Emacs choke: scrambles the formatting, the syntax highlight, the
indentation, everything. The right chevron is OK.
Looks like this:
(...)
<plugins>
<plugin type="LV2">
<filename>http://zynaddsubfx.sourceforge.net</filename>
<index>0</index>
<label>ZynAddSubFX</label>
<preset></preset>
<direct-access-param>-1</direct-access-param>
<activated>1</activated>
<configs>
<config key="urn:distrho:state">

<ZynAddSubFX-data version-major="2" version-minor="5"
version-revision="4" ZynAddSubFX-author="Nasca Octavian Paul">
<INFORMATION />
<BASE_PARAMETERS>
(...)
I hate to be the "Sales dept guy in the tech open-space" but surely
/this doesn't sound like something that would be that hard to fix/ (tm) ;p
Oh, and it doesn't cause any other problem that I can think of, BTW. But
still.
Phil
PS - ZynAddSubFx is, despite everything, the coolest synth I worked
with, by far. I want to warmly thank everybody that made using it in
Qtractor possible, guys, you are heroes of mine.
PPS -Is there any plans to have (at least some of) its controls
automatable? I asked this in a whisper because I want it so bad it's
ridiculous :p

Hi,
In pythonosc (https://pypi.python.org/pypi/python-osc) after
connecting with udp_client.UDPClient(...) from a "client", how can I
detect the IP to respond to in the "server"?
If I explicitly supply the return IP in the server's
udp_client.UDPClient(...) call it works. But I want the server to
listen for an incoming connection or call on a particular port and
figure out who sent it and reply to that IP.
I have no network-fu.
Thanx!

Qtractor 0.7.8 - The Snobby Graviton is out!
-------------------------------------------
So it's first solstice'16...
The world sure is a harsh mistress... yeah, you read that right! <a
href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Moon_Is_a_Harsh_Mistress">Heinlein's
Moon</a> have been just intentionally rephrased. Yeah, whatever.
Just about when the UK vs. EU is there under close scrutiny and sizzling
winds of trumpeting (pun intended, again) coming from the other side of
the pond, we all should mark the days we're living in.
No worries: we still have some feeble but comforting news:
Qtractor 0.7.8 (snobby graviton) is out!
Nevertheless ;)
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.
Change-log:
- MIDI file track names (and any other SMF META events) are now
converted to and from the base ASCII/Latin-1 encoding, as much to
prevent invalid SMF whenever non-Latin-1 UTF-8 encoded MIDI track names
are given.
- MIDI file tempo-map and location markers import/export is now
hopefully corrected, after almost a decade in mistake, regarding MIDI
resolution conversion, when different than current session's setting
(TPQN, ticks-per-quarter-note aka. ticks-per-beat, etc.)
- Introducing LV2 UI Show interface support for other types than Qt,
Gtk, X11 and lv2_external_ui.
- Prevent any visual updates while exporting (freewheeling) audio tracks
that have at least one plugin activate state automation enabled for
playback (as much for not showing messages like "QObject::connect:
Cannot queue arguments of type 'QVector<int>'"... anymore).
- The common buses management dialog (View/Buses...) sees the
superfluous Refresh button finally removed, while two new button
commands take its place: (move) Up and Down.
- LV2 plug-in Patch support has been added and LV2 plug-ins parameter
properties manipulation is now accessible on the generic plug-in
properties dialog.
- Fixed a recently introduced bug, that rendered all but one plug-in
instance to silence, affecting only DSSI plug-ins which implement
DSSI_Descriptor::run_multiple_synths() eg. fluidsynth-dssi, hexter, etc.
