Hi,
I wrote some code (in C++) using JACK1 API. It was quite easy to do that
with a plenty of example files.
Recently, I tried to utilize C++ libraries provided in JACK2 because I
don't like mixing OO code with C api. There are a lot of C++ classes in
JACK2 but I'm not able to link/include them.
For example: instead of #include <jack/jack.h> I'm trying to #include
"jack2/JackServer.h".
There are no example files.
What am I doing wrong? Or is it a bad way of using JACK2?
Thanks,
Vaclav
And finally, for the wrap of the pre-LAC2015@JGU-Mainz [1] release
party, no other than the 'crown jewel' of the whole Qstuff* bunch ;)
Qtractor 0.6.6 (lazy tachyon beta) is out!
Release highlights:
* LV2 and VST plugins GUI position persistence (NEW)
* MIDI clip editor record/overdub note rendering (FIX)
* VST plugin recursive discovery/search path (NEW)
* VST-shell sub-plugins support (FIX)
* also some old and new lurking bugs squashed.
Qtractor [2] is an audio/MIDI multi-track sequencer application written
in C++ with the Qt4 framework. 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 clip record/reopen to/from SMF format 0 has been fixed.
- LV2 and VST plugins GUI editor widget position is preserved across
hide/show cycles.
- Added application description as freedesktop.org's AppData [6].
- Added a "Don't ask this again" prompt option to zip/archive extrated
directory removal/replace warning messages.
- MIDI clip editor (aka. piano-roll) gets lingering notes properly shown
while on record/overdubbing.
- Current highlighted client/port connections are now drawn with thicker
connector lines.
- Fixing segfaults due to QClipboard::mimeData() returning an invalid
null pointer while on Qt5 and Weston.
- Return of an old hack/fix for some native VST plugins with GUI editor,
on whether to skip the explicit shared library unloading on close and
thus avoid some mysterious crashes on session and/or application exit.
- Force reset of plugin selection list when any of the plugin search
paths change (in View/Options.../Plugins/Paths).
- Recursive VST plugin search is now in effect for inventory and
discovery on path sub-directories (VST only).
- Non-dummy scannig for regular VST, non-shell plugins, were doomed to
infinite-loop freezes on discovery, now fixed.

Hi,
io GNU/Linux 2015.01 has been released (32 and 64-bits).
io GNU/Linux is a Live DVD/USB based on Debian Sid and focused on multimedia.
This new version includes an installer (without support for EFI/GPT based
systems for now)
Kernel 3.16.7-ck7, Jack2 as default sound server, e18 as desktop environment
and a big collection of installed software... Full persistence for USB install
(with encryption) and more cool stuff...
For more infos: manual, packages list, screenshots, video etc... Check:
-> http://io.gnu.linux.free.fr/ (work in progress)
-> https://sourceforge.net/projects/io-gnu-linux/
Feedbacks welcome, enjoy :)

Hi, some internal functions are globals and I think it is not what you want
(jack2 seems ok).
For example, a naive way to forbid the creation of other jack clients is:
# tested with jack 0.124.1
gcc -ljack private_club_mode.c
./a.out # prints "JACK compiled with System V SHM support."
echo $? # 0
jack_lsp # no more clients please, segfault (jack_client_open_aux)
/* private_club_mode.c */
#include <jack/jack.h>
int jack_register_server(const char *, int);
int main() {
return jack_register_server("umpa", 0xDADA);
}

This was just announced on sursound. Might be worthwhile to adopt for
anyone working with spatial audio datasets and files...

Subject: [Sursound] AES69-2015 standard for file exchange - Spatial
acoustic data file format
Date: Sun, 15 Mar 2015 16:13:47 +0100
From: Markus Noisternig <Markus.Noisternig(a)ircam.fr>

Dear Sursounders,
We are pleased to announce the recent publication of the AES69-2015
standard for file exchange - Spatial acoustic data file format. See also
the AES press release at http://www.aes.org/press/?ID=293
<http://www.aes.org/press/?ID=293>
The new AES69-2015 standard defines a file format to exchange
space-related acoustic data in various forms. These include HRTF, as
well as directional room impulse responses (DRIR). The format is
designed to be scalable to match the available rendering process and to
be sufficiently flexible to include source materials from different
databases.
This project was developed in AES Standards Working Group SC-02-08 and
standardizes the Spatially-oriented format for acoustics (SOFA), which
aims at storing and transmitting any transfer-function data measured
with microphone arrays and loudspeaker arrays. See
http://www.sofaconventions.org/ <http://www.sofaconventions.org/> for
further information and ongoing format discussions.
Open source application-programming interfaces (API) for Matlab, Octave,
and C++ are available online at
http://sourceforge.net/projects/sofacoustics/
<http://sourceforge.net/projects/sofacoustics/>
All the best,
Markus and Piotr
